Chapter 316: My Husband
Chad rushed back inside the courtroom as soon as he received the call and gave a signal to Lana, who was about to say that they were dropping the charges against Yun.
Lana's face lit up seeing that signal from Chad. It was a positive signal in their favor!
'Oh God, thank you…' Lana muttered silently, in a prayer.
She looked at Liam, who gave her a nod and a smile. She inhaled and exhaled loudly before speaking, "Your honor, we want to call in on our witness… The man who managed to live unexpectedly, for Mr. Yun hired a man to kill him..."
The judge approved the witness and a private door opened where the boy in the video could be seen being pushed inside in a wheelchair.
"He's alive?" Yun whispered in shock. But what made him turn pale was that Xander did not drop the charges, and the trial continued just as it was supposed to.
Yun turned to Liam and leered, "Make sure you win this case or I will kill your cousin and destroy his entire family, including you, myself!"
"Don't you dare tell me what to do… Because your life depends on me now…" Liam glowered in his darkened face.
Yun was left stunned and speechless with the way Liam spoke to him and he fainted on the spot, because of his feelings of anger and his fear for the result of this trial. He couldn't?understand how things came down to this. He thought he had everything prepared.
His men even got an opportunity to kidnap Yera and blackmail Xander with her name. A while ago Xander looked completely shattered, and that made Yun almost sure of his victory. What on earth went wrong?
His little brain couldn't process the problem with this outcome and when Liam was about to stand up to defend him, he grabbed his collar and whispered, "You have to win this case and I will take care of Shawn's name… I will make sure he will have peace with his family and I will not bother the Kens nor pull them down with Shawn's past…" like a crazy man.
Yun was silently praying for Liam to do the magic he was known for, but Liam abruptly pushed him away and said, "I told you beforehand that we Ken's can manage to protect our own and don't need help from scumbags like you. Don't worry Mr Yun, I will handle your case exactly how it should be handled."
Yun looked at Liam's back with parted lips, bewildered, and thought about what that bastard meant by his words? 'Handle his case as to how it should be handled?' he mused while encouraging himself that Liam would make his utmost to win his case over, as he was after all famous for never losing any case.
Liam stood up, picked something out from his pocket and handed it over to the judge.
"Your honor… Me and my family are victims of Yun's evil plans as well. What I have just handed over to you is the evidence of his greed for power, how evil he is and just how far he is willing to go for solely fulfilling his own purpose and claim.
This is a recording of his voice taken just a while ago, in which he is confessing to all the crimes he has committed. In that recording you can clearly see how he was threatening me by planting false evidence against my cousin and framing him." Liam started speaking and stated to everyone how Yun was harassing his cousin, him and their families.
"You! Traitor! How did you!" Yun shouted as he listened to his own voice that was played inside the courtroom. Liam frowned because he'd been putting up with that bastard and his whims long enough, and his patience had almost already given up. All he wanted was to make sure that Shawn and his family would be kept safe from all the evil plans of this scum.
So although from one perspective it did look like Liam was defending Yun, but the actual reason for Liam to represent him was to get him punished and not make it outrightly clear in the first hearing.
He had to keep everything confidential and not risk the plan, so he had to keep all these details hidden from Lana as well .
Yun was hysterical at the moment and had completely lost control of his sanity. He started shouting and even tried to assault Liam, but the security intervened to control him, and they had to pin him down before he could attack Liam. Yun was then kept in the custody of the guards and after the chaos was settled they all silently waited for the final verdict by the judge.
The judge looked at all the evidence of the filthy crimes Yun had committed.
The judge then gave his final verdict for Yun that came as a relief to Xander and Lana, and even Liam.
Xander and Lana were later escorted back to the Quan Territory. Chad wanted to celebrate Xander's victory before he left, but seeing his worried face, he arranged a private plane for him immediately so he could go and visit his wife straight away.
"I can't thank you both enough for what you've done." Xander told Chad and Lana before giving them a tight hug.
"I expect a hazard pay and bonus, you know," Lana replied in a jest.
"How about you, bro?" Xander asked Chad, grinning.
"Nah… It's nothing. Just make sure you live a peaceful life." Chad reassured him.
Chad then turned to Lana and teased, "Hmm, I did not arrange anything for you because someone is already here to pick you up…"
Lana nodded and with a wink and whispered, "I guess my husband can't wait any longer to be with me…"
"What?!" Chad and Xander burst out in shock.
"Is that a prank?" Xander beamed.
Lana laughed and proudly said, "Well… You two can confirm with Keira. Apparently your lawyer is married to the best lawyer in the world.."
"I will go first and see my husband…" Lana added as she turned around and excitedly rushed to her dear husband.
Chad and Xander looked at each other, mouth wide agape.
