Chapter 267 Turning Point (2)

“Objection. The money doesn’t pertain to the case. The defense lawyer shall not ask questions beyond the case.” Jesse stood up to say to the judge.

Before the judge was about to hammer down, Oscar hurried to continued, “Mr. Jesse, may I ask you a question? Both the contracts included tax paying of five million. Such being the case, for what reason should the defendant skip a direct contract with Zhang while engaging in an unnecessary one with Dore, which appeared to be illegal? Do you think the defendant. was out of his mind?”

Jesse, the most well-known and highly paid lawyer in Kensbury, was choked by Oscar, a rookie with no practical experience.

Jesse managed to collect himself and retorted, “For what reason can you tell that the value of the three contracts you mentioned exactly referred to the money for land purchase? As far as I know, it’s common to see a few supplementary contracts during business deal out of the purpose to simplify procedures for cash realization. The Cooper Group initiated those supplementary contracts so as to include some trades unable to be stipulated within legal contracts. It sounds reasonable, doesn’t it?”

“I have proof to sustain my claim.” When facing Jesse’s aggressive tone, Oscar maintained a tough posture. He took out a piece of file, “According to the statement of prosecution, the money worth 100,000,000 from the private contract had been split into five separate bank transfers, which happened on March 3rd, May 12th, June 18th, July 5th and September 20th last

year. While the drawees of those bank transfers appeared to be a few staffs of the Cooper Group. Coincidentally, the value from the three contracts between Maxwell and Ocean Building Materials Corporation had been directed to the same bank accounts of those drawees, while the date of which appeared to be February 24th, June 8th and July 1st. May I ask for the reasons accounting for the coincidence from the prosecutor?”

Hearing that, Jesse seemed to be frozen.

Undoubtedly, law required facts and logical explanations. There was no way that he could claim it to be a simple coincidence.

Though he kept himself composed, he had no idea how to defend himself.

“Your Honor, do you consider it a coincidence?” Oscar turned to look at the judge.

Of course, the judge needed to maintain justice. He then concluded seriously, “According to the defense lawyer, it can’t be a coincidence.”

“May I presume that the value from the three contracts had been transferred to Zhang?” “That sounds reasonable.” The judge answered euphemistically.

“Such being the case, why didn’t the defendant choose to sign a legal contract with Zhang? For what reason did he make such an unnecessary move that he turned to another company

to contract, and because of which he might face the risk himself? Did the defendant lose his

O

mind? May you answer my doubt, Mr. Jesse?” Oscar questioned.

Harrison was rendered speechless by his somewhat funny tone.

But at the same time, Jesse was choked again.

For all these years he presented himself in the court, he had been the one bombarding the other lawyers with endless questions.

“How can I tell what he was thinking?” Jesse answered awkwardly.

“But I can tell.” Oscar smiled confidently.
