Chapter 208
"But..."
Audrey still wanted to say something, but Bryson hugged her tightly.
"Audrey, I know you are feeling guilty, but this is his own choice. If Dick is not dead, he will be locked up in prison, and there will be no other day for him to come out in this life. I am afraid that this is what he does not want to bear, so he chose to die now. It has nothing to do with you!"
Audrey knew that Bryson was comforting her.
However, it did work.
Not hearing Audrey speak again, Bryson felt a little relaxed.
"You have more important things to do now. Don't forget. You are still a lawyer!"
A lawyer!
She was a lawyer, and Harold was still sitting on the dock. Her task had not ended, so she had to be rational and sober.
Audrey took a deep breath and smiled at Bryson. "I understand."
Bryson pinched her hand. "I'll wait for you in the audience."
Coby and Dick's bodies were carried out, and the court returned to peace.
Only their acting lawyer was left in the plaintiff's seats.
Audrey stood in the defendant's lawyer seat, "Your Honor, all the jury and identification members. All the evidence just now has been proved that my client was framed by someone. In addition, my client
has been detained for two months, and has sincerely repented. I hope Your Honor, you can announce that my client is innocent and be released in court!"
Then, Audrey handed over the confession letter that Harold had written last night.
The two judges looked at the letter and exchanged a look, and then they came to have a discussion with the jury.
In the end, the judge looked at Harold with a kind expression.
"After the unanimous decision of the court jury, I now announce, the defendant, Harold, is innocent, and will be released at court!"
Audrey was finally relieved at this moment.
Harold's charges have finally been lifted.
"In addition, Susie is suspected of covering up and falsely accusing. We will arrest her according to the law!" The judge announced again and knocked on the gavel. "The trial is over."
The moment the judge finished speaking, Susie was stunned.
When Dick was strangled to death by Coby, she was already terrified to the point that her entire body was in a panic.
When the policeman put the cold handcuffs on her hands, her mind went blank and she was taken away in a daze.
...
Coming out of the court, Harold let out a long sigh.
Looking up at the bright sun, he finally had a sense of freedom.
Everything that happened this morning was like a dream.
However, he was indeed acquitted, all because of Audrey.
Harold held Audrey's hand tightly. "Angel, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been acquitted. Thank you so much!"
Audrey answered, "If you really want to thank me, don't make such low-level mistakes. I don't want to do it again!"
Harold felt awkward.
She was right. He needed to be more cautious.
"By the way, where is your grandmother's grave? Take me there!" Audrey suddenly said.
"Why are you going to my grandmother's grave?"
"Didn't I say that I have something to say to you? Let's go. You lead the way."
"Oh, okay!"
...
The grave was in a cemetery in the suburbs. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
It was the kind-hearted neighbor who told him about his grandmother.
Standing in front of the tombstone, Audrey took a deep look at the photo. She was a white-haired old woman with a kind face.
It could be seen that she was amiable when she was alive.
Audrey placed the bouquet of carnations in front of the tombstone.
Harold suddenly knelt down with tearing eyes.
"Grandma, I'm sorry. I finally come back to see you. It's all my fault. I caused you to pass away early."
Harold kowtowed several times to his grandmother.
"Grandma, hello. My name is Audrey..." Audrey looked at the tombstone. "I'm Harold's sister. Thank you for raising him during the eighteen years he lost his family."
Audrey knelt down beside Harold and kowtowed three times.
Harold looked at Audrey in surprise.
"Angel, you just said..."
Audrey pulled out another pendant from her neck.
It was exactly the same as the pendant on Harold's neck, but the texture was the opposite.
Harold's eyes widened as he stared at the pendant in Audrey's hand. "Why do you have the other half of the pendant? Who are you?"
Audrey helped Harold up and looked at him seriously.
"Harold, your original name is Quentin Munn. My name is Audrey Munn. You are my younger brother. We are siblings. I am your sister!" Audrey said slowly and forcefully.
Audrey's words were like a bolt of lightning that flashed across Harold's mind.
He recalled something.
In a large house, a little girl pulled him along to climb onto the swing and played with him.
A young woman handed the two pendants to him and the little girl. "The two of you will get one each. In the future, if the two of you get separated, you can use this pendant to find each other!"
Harold looked at Audrey in shock and tears rolled down his eyes.
"Are you my sister? My sister?" His voice was trembling with excitement.
He had always thought that he was an orphan. In this world, he had no relatives. He thought that he would be lonely for the rest of his life.
Unexpectedly, he had a relative in this world, and his sister was still alive.
Audrey looked at him with a smile and nodded. She was also about to cry. It took her a long time to hold back her tears.
"That's right. I am your sister!"
After getting Audrey's confirmation, Harold could no longer endure the excitement in his heart and threw himself into Audrey's arms.
"I thought I no longer had any family!" Harold cried like a child in Audrey's arms.
Audrey could no longer hold back her tears.
She hugged him tightly. "It's my fault. I didn't find you earlier. It's my fault. I'm sorry!"
