After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire

Proof Against Charles

Proof Against Charles

Flustered, Charles tried to control his temper.

He rose from his seat and headed for Sarah, behaving as a most considerate husband, "Darling, is

anything wrong with you? What are you here for? I told Martina to take care of you at home. Where's

the naughty girl?"

Listening to Charles' hypocritical words, Sarah had a sneer.

How dare he mention Martina?

The bitch would have almost killed her if Hannah's people didn't save her in time.

Charles saw the resentment in her eyes, but he ignored it and decided to take her away at once. He

dragged her by her hand, but she shook him off.

"Don't touch me!"

"Don't be loud in court, darling, or you will be punished." Charles said in a tender voice, "Let me take

you home, shall we?"

Then he apologized to the judge and all the other people on the spot, "I do apologize for disrupting the

court's order. I'll come back to get punished after sending my wife home." He still behaved like an This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

upright man.

"Let me go!" Sarah was cracking as she knew that if he took her away, he would kill her. However, she

was not strong enough to shake him off.

The snake performed as an affectionate husband, making the audience consider it a quarrel between a

couple. Sarah was so frightened, as she had just escaped from the edge of death.

"Where are you going?" Theodore suddenly blocked their way.

"Get out of the way!"

"It seems your wife is unwilling to go with you."

"None of your business." He grounded out between clenched teeth.

"Well, I always have a sense of justice. If Mrs Sawyer is willing to leave with you, I'll let you go; if she is

not, you will never leave this courtroom!" Theodore said coldly.

Charles' face darkened. He realized at once that it was Hannah's trick.

Charles threatened him with clenched teeth, "Theodore, don't get on my bad side!"

"Well, this is because you have no good side," said Theodore teasingly. He looked at Sarah and asked,

"Are you going with him?"

"No way! I'd rather die!" Sarah answered firmly.

"All right," Theodore had a mocking smile. He flexed his neck and exercised his wrists and ankles. The

next second, he punched Charles' face abruptly, knocking him down.

Charles endured the agony and looked discomfited. Before he reacted to it, Theodore continued to

punch and kick him.

While doing it, Theodore kept cursing in his mind, "You bastard! Who do you think you are? How dare

you maltreat Oscar? I'm going to knock your block off!"

Theodore paid him back madly, while Sarah just saw it coldly aside.

After a while, the bailiffs responded to rush toward Theodore and seized him. They arrested him on the

charge of disrupting the court's order.

Seeing Theodore taken away, Hannah sighed. Theodore always did what he well pleased. That was an

added "surprise" for her since she had only asked him to stop Charles.

It seemed that Theodore would be caught for another dozen days.

But, on thinking of what Oscar had suffered in prison and seeing Charles' black and blue face beaten

by Theodore, she found it worthy of having Theodore held in jail.

"Goodness, I didn't know Theodore should be such an aggressive guy!" Susan exclaimed. It was a little

frightening for her but so thrilling.

Charles was beaten up, but he tried to stand up and still intended to take Sarah away. However, Sarah

had already stayed away from him.

Loretta stayed with her son painfully and shouted desperately, "Beating is wrong! You must put

Theodore into prison and shoot him!"

The previously serious court became a mess.

The judge pounded the gavel solemnly, "Be quiet!"

The court became silent all of a sudden.

At the same time, Sarah exclaimed in silence, "Please let me present the evidence of Charles' crimes,

your Honor!"

The judge was in a dilemma. He didn't want to annoy Sarah, but Charles was the one who dictated to

him throughout the case. What the hell was the current situation?

While the judge hesitated, Melvin stood out. He said to him respectfully, "Your Honor, according to the

law in Northfield, is it legal to hear two cases simultaneously?"

"Not really, unless the two cases are related."

"Then please accept Sarah's complaint."

The judge didn't say a word, overwhelmed.

After seconds, he said, "As it involves many procedures, I need to discuss it with the jury."

Melvin nodded.

After the judge and jury left, the gallery was noisy again.

Before going back to his seat, Melvin glanced at Hannah. He didn't expect that Hannah should make

the Collins family abandon Charles.

Ten minutes later, the judge and jury came back.

This time, the judge said definitely, "Sarah Collins, please present your evidence of Charles Sawyer's

crimes."

Sarah looked thrilled, "Thank you very much, Your Honor."

"Sarah!" Charles called her, seized by bailiffs.

Sarah was followed by two bailiffs as well. She passed by Charles coldly, ignoring his affectionate call.

It was not affectionate but ironic in her ears.

At the same time, Charles was taken to the dock, only two seats away from Oscar. He couldn't believe

how things could go like this.

Sarah delivered the proof and stated, "These are the records proving how Charles and River Town City

Hall collaborated and the records of financial transfers. Charles bought the staff to frame Oscar,

deployed the two men who sent cash to Oscar Wells's home, and caused Mary Cooper's death. He

intended to make Mary seduce Oscar and kill Mary to frame Oscar. But he didn't expect Oscar didn't

lay with Mary, so he had to deploy another person to rape Mary, kill her, and throw her body into a river.

They meant to retrieve her corpse from the river several days later to disguise the semen in her body.

In this way, they almost successfully framed Oscar."
