Chapter 285 That Was What He Was Waiting For
Everyone’s eyes widened.
The case had just been presented, so everybody knew that the amount of compensation was four hundred million.
With ten times the amount, that would mean four billion!
Ben’s eyes were round as he looked disbelievingly at Elisa.
She actually wanted such a big amount of compensation?
Would it really work?
In the next moment, he felt like his heart was bleeding. If he had known earlier that Elisa and Rachel had such a good relationship, he wouldn’t have made things difficult for Rachel. Otherwise, this four billion would have belonged to him.
Rachel was also shocked beyond words. In an instant, she was pleasantly surprised. What the heck! Liz was so amazing!
As for Jasper…
After he heard it, his face turned green.
If it was another lawyer, they would have laughed in disdain. But who were they going up against? It was freaking Elisa! Elisa Benett!
While everyone was in disbelief, Elisa started to elaborate. She spoke with definite evidence, and there wasn’t a chance to object at all.
Everything she said was in accordance with the law. It was impossible to find fault with her.
Ben thought that it was absurd. In front of Elisa, other than her nameplate, there wasn’t a single draft of paper.
Evidence was handed to the judge. Everything she wanted to say was from memory.
As for Jasper’s lawyer, he came armed, but he couldn’t object to anything Elisa was saying.
Elisa looked at him indifferently, and her expression was calm. “That’s all from me.”
A court official glanced in the direction of Jasper. “The defendant may speak.”
Jasper took a slight breath in. He turned to look at his lawyer and said softly. “I know that you can’t win this case, but you must lessen my losses! No one can go up against Elisa. I won’t make trouble for you. You must try your best!”
Hearing that, the lawyer suddenly sighed in relief. He promptly nodded before speaking into the microphone. “The defendant objects. These are our points.”
Since it was Jasper’s personal lawyer, he only became Jasper’s trusted lawyer because he had some skills. He did bring up many opposing points, but…
Everything he brought up was objected to by Elisa. There wasn’t a chance for him to refute at all.
Although Ben felt like his heart was bleeding, he was elated.
At the very least, after what happened today, everyone would know that he had connections with Elisa, so when they wanted to partner with him, they wouldn’t try to deceive him.
Ben had resources that needed businessmen to partner with him, but they never wanted to pay so much. They would rather take advantage of loopholes. Ben had been suffering in silence for a long time.
Meanwhile, Rachel sat in the public stands with her eyes shining.
Four billion!
Ten times the amount! She was so happy she could die.
When the judge made the final judgment, the case ended completely, with Jasper being ordered to pay the compensation amount as stipulated by Elisa.
After the judge left, Ben was beaming so widely that his smile almost reached his ears. With gratitude, he looked at Elisa. “Ms. Benett, thank you so much!”
Elisa smiled. “You’re welcome, Mr. Lee. Although the money isn’t going to you this time, if you have any difficulties in the future, I won’t watch you die if I can help it.”
At once, Ben was overjoyed! That was what he had been waiting for!
Four billion was replaced with an amazing big shot like Elisa. It was worth it!
They spoke as they walked out. At this time, Jasper also walked out. His malicious gaze was directed straight at Elisa.
