Chapter 511

After Fabian was brought back to the courtroom, Toby stood before him and asked, "Mr. Locke, the

ledgers I was provided suggest that you were bankrupted under my client's manipulation by December

2020. Why would you only come forward to testify against my client after so long?"

Fabian scowled right then, as if there was something stopping him from talking.

"May I remind you that you are in a courtroom, Mr. Locke?" Toby said sternly. "You are under oath to

tell the truth."

Fabian inhaled, as if preparing to spill everything right then.

"I had no choice-John Levine threatened me with my son's future just after he passed the exams and

earned a place in a prestigious university in Astonia!" Fabian sounded more frustrated the more he

spoke. "He's my only son, and he's always been the pride of our family. John told me that if

I sued, my son won't be able to graduate. He even gloated that I'm never getting back my money, and

that I should just learn to cope with my loss!"

"Then why did you come forward?" Toby asked.

"Because my son was expelled-yes, it has nothing to do with John Levine, but even if I am no longer

threatened now, being swindled like that and not being able to tell anyone doesn't sit well with me!

That's why when I heard they were looking for witnesses to testify against him, I decided to do it. I'm

telling you, John Levine is a cunning man, cheating us of our money while stopping us from resisting!

So many people are afraid to speak up because he has leverage against them!"

"Do you have any evidence to prove John Levine's crime?"

"Here," Fabian whipped out his phone. "You can listen to the voice recording he sent on WhatsApp.”

Toby took the phone and played the voice recording, and everything was just as Fabian had described

it... although there was a significant issue.

"I’m sure everyone noticed it, but the voice of the person speaking to Mr. Locke is different from my

client—it indicates the usage of a voice changer. It

"Of course he would change his voice! He's careful enough to not leave evidence!" Fabian huffed

indignantly.

While Fabian was sharp enough to notice that, he did not suspect that the voice was not John's-the

culprit was smart enough to anticipate that too.

Toby did not argue with Fabian either and provided his own evidence.

"Here’s a software that can restore the original voice," he said and played the restored voice recording.

The voice was identical to the voice of the man speaking to Wade before, leaving the courtroom

restless.

"We can also provide official certification to prove the veracity of the software, that this was no mere

fabrication," Toby said as he submitted the certification. "We had also used legal hacking technology to

access Wade Jonas' cellphone, which contains full logs of the dummy account registered under my

client's name, and here's the video evidence."

Toby then played a video of the hacking process, and it clearly showed that the dummy account with

John's name had a fabricated IP that would trick others into believing it belonged to John. It had been

bound to Wade's phone as well, and there were plenty of logs of his contact with many victims.

The longer the trial went on, the more the truth was surfacing.

Everyone was fully focused, worried about missing anything exciting just then.

"In summary, with the evidence of the restoration of the voice recording, Wade had made a deal where

he conspired against my client, impersonating him as he committed market manipulation and money

laundering," Toby said. "And the person who had coerced him into this is James Stuart, the heir to

Stuart Holdings."

However, Sean once again presented a rebuttal. "The defense counsel had certainly provided sufficient

evidence that, logically speaking, is sufficient in building a case. However, there are still

inconsistencies, and it still doesn't clear the defendant of any wrongdoing. In fact, this may entirely be

staged by the defendant, nor is there enough evidence to implicate the Stuarts-one could even say that

it is mere speculation."

Toby merely nodded at him and said, "Thank you for your input, Mr.

Cranston, but I'm now going to play two videos that would help my case. It might not have a direct

connection to this trial, but it would definitely help as a speculative evidence."

Judge Rackham once again gave his approval.
