"Miss Bertha, please follow my instructions. You can rest assured that, even if the other party is a royal princess, the Griselda family law firm will not let you suffer any disadvantage, no matter how small."
Bertha didn't say anything, she nodded in agreement and didn't look at the list the lawyer gave her.
Dante, Venn, and Lealia followed them to the court. Fawn's work hasn't been busy lately, but he hasn't had time to go back yet. Liam volunteers to stay at home to take care of Shane.
By the time Mica ran to Shane's house, everyone had left, they had left half an hour ago. Because her cell phone had been confiscated, she used up the last drop of battery on the way to catch a taxi. Having no other choice, she had to borrow some money from Liam and take a taxi to the international court.
As soon as Mica left, Liam returned to the master bedroom but unexpectedly, he discovered that Shane was awake.
He was both surprised and happy and quickly sat down: "Thank goodness! Boss, you're finally awake."
Shane's eyelashes fluttered and he looked at Liam, immediately looking around the entire room.
'Where is Bertha?"
Mentioning this matter, Liam immediately lost patience: "She went to the international court, the eldest princess wants to sue her for conspiracy to murder the royal family, the trial just opened today."
Handsome Shane frowned, his vague thoughts suddenly becoming clear: "Conspiracy to kill the royal family?"That's Lance Charles - the nominally adopted son of the eldest princess - Bruno."
Shane immediately lifted the blanket off the bed: "Quickly call a taxi, we'll go to the international court immediately."
Liam looked at his watch. He grabbed his boss's arm: "The trial is about to start. If we want to go there, I'm afraid we won't be able to help."
Finally, Liam's eyes froze slightly, his voice was low and cautious: "Boss, I just received news that that person... has escaped danger to his life."
Shane faced him, quickly calmly clarifying his train of thought.
'Let's go take a look."—There were many people outside the solemn court.
As soon as Bertha's car arrived, the media quickly surrounded them, jostling to bring the microphone in front of Bertha.
'Miss Bertha, did you kill someone?"
"Even though Mr. Bruno is in prison, he is also a good law-abiding citizen. It is said that he had a childhood crush on you. Why did you have to kill him?"
'Miss Bertha, please explain a little, Miss Bertha…"
The microphone was constantly placed in front of Bertha, the flash crackling.
Bertha was about to answer when Venn hugged her shoulder, he directly told everyone to disperse.
When he appeared, in less than a few minutes, the already busy media reporters ran away. Venn leaned close to her ear. He carefully reminded her: "Little girl, remember what lawyer Terry said, as for other things, you don't need to think too much. Me and our brothers will help you handle all your work."
Bertha collected her heavy thoughts and nodded.
In court.
The audience seats were filled with people.
The plaintiff's seat is opposite the defendant's seat.
Not long after, Gaye Harold helped the princess with a haggard face walk to court. Her eyes were a bit swollen, it seemed like she had cried a lot these past few days. Noticing Bertha's gaze, the eldest princess glared fiercely at her, unable to hide the murderous hatred in her eyes.
Bertha pretended not to see, she quickly looked away and then quietly walked to the location where the defendant's name was recorded.
When the expert announced the court's disciplinary action, Bertha remembered the note the lawyer gave her, so she quietly took it out to examine it.
The bar association wanted her to use the excuse that Bruno lost control of his emotions, had serious violent tendencies, and also wanted to kill Liam, proving that to save people, she murdered Bruno, falling under the category of legitimate self-defense.
But just like that, she wanted to put all the responsibility on Bruno. Therefore, even if he dies, he will still have a bad reputation as a villain, responsible for everything.
She is pregnant. As long as she can prove to the court that she is pregnant, she does not need to shoulder this responsibility for the time being...
But now the fetus is still too young, and the adults in the family all believe that under three months is not appropriate to disclose, not to mention she has not yet thought of a way to tell this story to her brothers and father.
When her thoughts were chaotic, Venn next to him keenly noticed the change in her expression after looking at the paper. He gently reminded her: "Bertha, don't think too much."
Bertha's mind was confused. Just as she was stunned, the judge appeared, the trial was about to open.
Bertha quietly stuffed the paper into her pocket and quietly lowered her eyelids.
On the chair, the eldest princess's mental state seemed very bad, her painful appearance made everyone who did not know the story exclaims about the great mother's love, even in death. Even though he was adopted, she was still extremely miserable. She has a kind heart.
On the contrary, Bertha, her face is cold, and her appearance is beautiful but her soul is cruel. If the story of her murder is true then she deserves to be punished.
The unidentified people sitting in the auditorium seats all leaned toward the eldest princess.'… Sir Lance Charles was deported back to his country following a cross-border arrest warrant. He was indeed wrong, but he should have been handed over to the National Bureau of Investigation for trial under the Criminal Code, but the defendant Bertha, at her wedding on the same day, murdered Lance Charles. Even his body was taken away. To date, the whereabouts of the body have not been determined. She did this crazy thing. I ask the judge to punish her severely."
Bertha was bewildered when she suddenly heard the princess plaintiff's lawyer calling her name.
But there was one sentence in the lawyer's words that caught her attention.
Didn't they see Bruno's corpse?
Why? Bertha had heard that Shane had ordered his subordinates to deliver Bruno's corpse to the Felix family, right?
Could it be that the Felix family also hated her, so they dragged her to hell and conspired with the eldest princess to intentionally hide Bruno's corpse?
Her mind was chaotic.
'Judge, regarding the plaintiff's accusations, the defendant on my side, she has something to say."
