CHAPTER 341 - Found A Worthy Evidence
Everything had worked out so fine until now when it all began to crumble right before Andromeda.
But with the assurance from Liu Xueyi, she decided to put her mind at ease and focus on recovering.
In the same vein, Liu Jinchen could hardly sit for it when he heard the news.
As much as he felt Andromeda was trouble, he did not appreciate anyone trying to make a scapegoat out of any member of his family.
And this case was no exception.
"Convicting Liu Xueyi? Is the judge mad?!" He hollered in rage when the news was first thrown at him.
If not for his wife being there at the time to appease his anger, no one knew how terrible his order would have been.
"Where is Xueyi?" He asked his assistant who stood before him and his wife.
"In the hospital."
"What?!" Both husband and wife responded at once.
"What happened to my son," Liu Jiaying questioned almost instantly.
"Thankfully, the young master is alright," his assistant informed him, watching as both parents heaved a sigh of relief.
Sadly, it did not remain so for the madam of the house who once again had her scared eyes darted in his direction.
"Then if not him, who?"
"The young master's girlfriend was hospitalized."
"What? Andromeda, why? How could such happen? Where… wait wasn't she in the trial with Xueyi?"
"She was, Madam. However, she had a panic attack. The change in the trial and how much the judge turned every situation in her disfavour was overwhelming for her."
"Weak," Liu Jinchen scoffed out, earning him a glare from his wife.
"She is not weak," Liu Jialing corrected swiftly. "I can understand her. Before they were winning and now, this happened.
"Apparently, she collapsed after the young master was going to be charged with harassment. And yes, it was overwhelming. Her evidence to prove Wu Bai wrong and the young master innocent was destroyed. Gone without a trace and she was left with embarrassment."
"Oh…" Liu Jinchen trailed off when he understood exactly what had happened. "Hmm. How is she now?"
"She will be fine," his assistant responded.
"Good. As she should be. The battle has only just begun and from the way I see it, the final trial would not wait for her and happen soon."
"Yes, sir. It is slated for tomorrow."
"There is much that can still be done within a few hours. Since Wu Bai and his associates want to play dirty, why not give them something to chew on."
"What do you have in mind, darling?"
"Yes. Check out all their last meetings, both the attorney, Wu Bai and Beatrice. Dig in. A lot of bribery must have gone down to permit such a thing. Fish it out and relate with Xueyi. Have him get all the evidence that he needs."
"Yes, sir."
"Not just my son and his girlfriend, but Liu's pride has been tampered with. They must pay the price and dance to the tunes which have begun playing."
*******
As for Liu Xiao Xin and her cousin, they proceeded to make the first entry into matters.
The Liu family symbol had been touched the moment Attorney Longwei decided to play games and act in disfavour of Liu Xueyi.
Hours were spent that day seeking out the evidence they wanted. Several CCTV clips were played to ensure they got things the right way.
And by the time nighttime fell on them, both ladies were tired beyond words.
"Sigh, we do not have all day," Liu Chao Xing muttered, releasing a sigh.
"I know. Get me a cup of coffee, please. I would be extremely fast now," Liu Xiao Xin stated with her gaze glued to the laptop screen.
"Okay."
Not wanting to argue with her cousin, Liu Chao Xing rose to her feet to get the needed coffee, when she heard Xiao Xin's voice telling her to stop.
"Hmm?" Her forehead crinkled with the order as she took a turn around. "Yes?"
Rather than responding to her confused cousin, Liu Xiao Xin's lips curved up into a daunting smile and when she turned her head to the side to look at her partner, her eyes shone with joy.
"I think, I found what we have been looking for."
Her eyes flew wide open at her words and immediately, Liu Chao Xing moved closer to her. "You said?"
"I have found worthy evidence. Come watch."
Together both ladies took their time in accessing the tape before, playing it over and over again to catch all clues and points.
By the time they had written down most of the things needed, all traces of tiredness had disappeared from their faces as both of them were pumped up now, more than ever.
"There's only one thing left to do," Liu Chao Xing addressed.
"Yes. Inform Xueyi."
******
On the other hand, Liu Xueyi and his team began to seek out all they could get their hands on and call in help and favour.
One such call was from Rong Bolin. Now was the time to reveal all of their trump cards and ensure Wu Bai and Beatrice went down.
"Bolin," Liu Xueyi's deep voice resonated through the phone.
"Hey, how are you?" came Rong Bolin's response.
He knew what had happened and knew how his friend was feeling but he could not help but show concern.
"What do you think?"
"Raged. Vexed, to say the least. I can name them but they would all mean the same thing."
"Yes. It is not just about me but they embarrassed my Andy. Now that is something I will not sit for," he informed.
"I know. I know everything that happened. Anyways, it is time, right? Time to use my hidden gem."
"Yeah. I am sorry for this but if we must bring them down, I will use all legal means necessary."
"As you should. Riding the world of scum would be very much considered a good service to mother earth," Rong Bolin chuckled as he said.
"Leave the rest to me on this part. Ensure all other things are in order."
"Definitely."
