Chapter 393 Who is she? Dominic's heart, which had just been firmly set on standing up for Selena, wavered for a moment.
Leah buried her face in his arms, the corners of her lips curled into a mocking smile.
So what if Dominic has Selena in his heart? Is it still no better than profit.
Leah sneered in her heart, but she was still soft and pleading, "As long as mum is okay, in the future if you want to stand up for Selena, | will definitely not stop you again. Dominic, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your mum and Angie. Your grandpa is very optimistic about Riddle's and Walson's cooperation, if you mess up this matter in order to stand up for Selena, he will definitely be boorishly angry.” "Later, | can go and help you to explain to Selena that it is not that you are unwilling to help her, but that | begged you and threatened you, that everything is my fault.” Hearing Leah's pealing words, Dominic once again looked up at Selena.
Selena seemed to be pushed to the limit in the face of the lawyer's aggressive cross-examination, and her face went white.
On one side is his own future, and on the other is Selena who can no longer belong to him forever.
Dominic closed his eyes abruptly, forcing himself not to look at Selena, forcing down the discomfort and unease in his heart.
It doesn't matter.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe reassured himself that he would have another chance later.
If Selena loses her lawsuit, she will not go to jail, she will just be scolded, he will speak for her and will take all the blame on himself.
It'll be fine.
With his action, Leah knew that Dominic had compromised and that she had succeeded again.
Once again, Dominic gave up on Selena for her, choosing to let her suffer the curses and consequences.
Leah sneered.
She didn't know if she was laughing at herself or at Selena.
In this man's heart, the most important thing is always himself, and he could never give up everything for her, or for Selena.
Although she lost out on her marriage, it doesn't matter, this time, she won Selena again.
Selena sat in the plaintiff's bench, still silent in the face of the lawyer's increasingly excessive cross-examination.
Seeing that she did not say anything, the lawyer gradually forgot the shadow brought to him by Bison's experience and regained his confidence as a gold medal lawyer, he stared into Selena's eyes, "Lady Selena, please answer me, do you have been drugged or not?" "If you were drugged, how was your drug undone? Did you have sex with other men in the process?" "If you were not, you were deliberately slandering my client.” "Please explain clearly how you escaped from the hotel at that time." "What exactly did you do to escape when you were drugged and drunk, surrounded by a group of men far taller and physically stronger than you?" "Does your silence mean that you can't explain these things at all?" "And is what | have just speculated all true? That everything was self-directed, that you deliberately staged a in which you were harmed and framed my client just to send her to prison and pave the way for you to compete for the Riddle family's fortune?" "Lady Selena, please answer my question right now." Sentence after sentence of sharp cross-examination slammed over towards Selena, and the silent courtroom was filled with only his aggressive voice.
Leia looked at Selena's face and was so angry that she wanted to tear that lawyer apart.
Molly, in the defendant's seat, only felt smug and her back straightened.
As long as Selena could not answer this question, she would not only be acquitted, but would become a victim in one fell swoop.
Her Leah would get her out.
As Leah watched Selena seemingly being pushed to the point of being unable to speak, a touch of smugness passed over her face.
The lawyer's questions spatted out one after another, and Selena remained silent in response.
In time, the lawyer's righteousness was so overwhelming that almost even those in the audience began to falter.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOlympus Group's lawyers frowned and there were many who could not resist the urge to say something, but held back.
Looking at Selena's silent face, the lawyer sneered in triumph and looked up at the judge's bench, "Your Honor, since the plaintiff is unable to answer these questions, | formally appeal on behalf of my client. The so-called drugging may not have existed at all, but was invented by her to frame my client.” Leia bellowed angrily, "You fucking bullshit.” The lawyer turned his head, and asked sharply, "Then tell me, if the plaintiff was really drugged, how on earth did she manage to release the drug from her body? It is contradictory for her to say that she was drugged while at the same time saying that she is innocent and has not had sex with anyone at all, and | am sure that everyone present has this question." As Leia was just about to speak, a cold voice came through, "You might as well ask me that question.” Hearing this sound, Selena, who had not moved at all, opened her eyes and looked in the direction of the gate.
As the words came in, the imposing door of the court were pushed open by a pair of slender hands.
A creak caught everyone's attention for a moment.
In the harsh sunlight, a slender figure caught everyone's eye. The visitor was dressed in a long black trench coat, slender and lean, with long black hair, long and straight, unadorned and straight behind her body.
She strode in on her high heels.
Her aura was amazing.
When the pale and stunning face of the visitor became clear, countless shouts of surprise rang out.
Some people in the audience could not even resist standing up.
"This is-" "Why is she here?" "Who is so capable to invite her to be here?" "Who is she?" Even the judges on the high platform seemed to be rattled.
The corners of Selena's lips curled, her eyes fixed on the visitor's face for a moment, and a flash of surprise in her eyes.
The visitor's eyes swept the whole room and finally landed on Selena's face, a rare trace of surprise appeared on her cold face, "You are?" Selena smiled faintly, "Selena Riddle." The woman smiled, like the ice melting in spring, "You look different.” Selena gave a smile and said carelessly, "The more you leave the scum, the better you naturally live." When Leah looked at this strange woman who had appeared and heard the conversation between her and Selena, her eyelids jumped and she had a bit of a bad feeling.
She asked the people around her, "Who is she?" She knew all of Selena's social circles, so how come she hadn't seen this woman before? "She's-"
