“Secondly, when Mr. Lyons gave 100 billion dollars to Sarah previously, it is written in black and white that the money was offered to her. According to the laws in Australia, once you transfer your money to someone else, you can’t ask for it back. Well, everyone might think that it’s a huge amount, but why was Shaun willing to give it to Sarah? It shows that he, too, felt that he owed Sarah then.”
After Stevens finished speaking, the jury looked at Shaun contemptuously. Furthermore, the judge tonight was a female, and she hated sc*mmy men the most.
Shaun rose to his feet. “Laws are rigid, but humans are flexible. When I got into a relationship with the defendant at a young age, I thought she was a kind girl. Since we got together, Sarah has received gifts worth 6.230 billion dollars from me. Here are the receipts from when I was 18 until several months ago when we broke up. This is not including the 1oo billion dollars I gave her.”
Sarah’s expression changed.
She probably did not expect Shaun to print out all the receipts from more than ten years ago.
Stevens mocked, “Attorney Lyons, what a penny pincher you are. I’m afraid you’re the only man in this world who would be so calculative.”
Shaun laughed. “Hardly anyone in the world would spend as much on their girlfriends as me. On the other hand, Neeson Corporation is managed by Sarah’s brother, Thomas. In order to help Thomas out, I’ve secretly invested 8 billion dollars in the company in the last few years to support it. Besides, I’ve disputed a few lawsuits for Thomas. The fees for my service is a few hundred million dollars per lawsuit, but I have yet to receive the remuneration.”
After pausing for a moment, Shaun shifted his eyes to the female judge. “Here are the receipts containing all the fund transactions. Also, when Miss Neeson was with me, she was engaged in an adulterous relationship with a drug addict. The police’s earlier investigative records regarding this incident are all here.”
“The police even took Miss Neeson away during our wedding. That was why I decided to cancel my wedding with Sarah. I didn’t mean to waste her youth. I was just deceived by her.”
After looking at the documentary evidence that was presented, the female judge darted a profound glance at Sarah.
Sarah was slightly unsettled. Stevens rose to his feet and stared at Shaun, “Attorney Lyons, earlier on the internet, you said that you’re impotent. So does it mean that you’ve never touched Miss Neeson?”
“Mm. I can prove it with my medical record.” Shaun nodded.
Stevens snorted. “Really? But I found out that you bought your ex-wife, Cate Cox, contraceptive pills when you were in a relationship with Sarah. This indicates that you aren’t impotent.
Your claim that you’ve never touched Miss Neeson is a lie.”
The female judge frowned. “Defense attorney, do you have any evidence?”
“Yes. Here are the records regarding his purchase of contraceptive pills, and behind are records showing his frequent purchase of condoms. This means that he’s actually potent. ” Stevens said, “He’s lying. “
Shaun furrowed his brows.
Indeed, Stevens was smarter than those lawyers he had encountered before. Shaun had never expected him to find these records.
He raised his head and said, “It’s true that I’ve never touched Sarah because whenever we were about to make out, my body naturally resisted it. “
Stevens sneered. “You fooled around with Miss Neeson for over ten years, only to claim that her body is disgusting. Shaun, you’re really good at making things up. Miss Neeson had an affair with Lucifer precisely because you secretly dated Cate all the time and slept with her after she returned. Sarah simply did the same thing to take revenge on you.”
“I hadn’t divorced Cate at that time…”
“That’s even more shameless of you. Sarah has been by your side these three years. You were the one who claimed that you had divorced Cate, but you lied and cheated on her. You cheated on her body and feelings, yet you still plan to get back the money. How brazen.”
Stevens’ righteous and stern voice made many people cast a disdainful look at Shaun.
At last, the female judge struck the gavel to signal the end of the first trial. The second trial would be held next week.
Everyone could tell from the trial that Shaun was at a disadvantage.
Sarah and Stevens were extremely smug as they walked out of the court.
“It turns out that the so-called best lawyer in Australia is mediocre. ” Stevens said to Sarah in a loud voice, “If I had known this earlier, my apprentice could have dealt with this.”
“It’sbecause you’re too brilliant, Attorney Stevens.”
Sarah sighed at Shaun. “Shaunic, we still have one more week to go. You can look for me anytime. If you think I’ve taken too much money, I can return a few hundred million dollars to you. I believe a few hundred million dollars will be sufficient for you to lead a comfortable life.”
“Rodney, do you see this? This is the woman you love.” Shaun suddenly mocked him, “You should know that I’ve never touched her.” With that, Shaun strode out.
Rodney was filled with mixed feelings as he watched Shaun’s silhouette.
Upon getting into the car, he could not help but ask Sarah, “Why did you and Stevens lie in court?
Shaun has never touched you.”
Sarah gave him an innocent look. “Attorney Stevens said that this is the only way we can win…”
“So you’ll stop at nothing to win the case?” It dawned on Rodney that he could not see through Sarah.
“Rodney, from the moment I hired Stevens, this case doesn’t only involve me. It also concerns Stevens, the top international lawyer’s reputation. He can’t afford to lose, ” Sarah replied in an aggrieved manner.
Rodney’s expression remained somber. “Fine. I can accept all you’ve just said. But the tone you used to tell Shaun that you can settle the issue out of court with a few hundred million dollars, don’t you think.. it’s too much?”
Indeed, if it were not for the trial just now, Rodney would not have known that Shaun had spent so much on Sarah.
In the end, Sarah planned to brush Shaun off with a few hundred million dollars. Was she treating him like a beggar?
Rodney’s aggressive attitude caused Sarah to grow impatient. “Rodney, I hate Shaun. I can’t possibly return so much money to him and allow him to make a comeback. What’s more, I need to pay ten percent of the attorney’s fees. You know nothing.”
Rodney looked utterly perplexed.
Although Sarah was beside her, he suddenly, for some reason, felt that he did not understand her well.
Perhaps he was overthinking it. Sarah could just be moody after being hurt by Shaun.
Nevertheless, he was inexplicably averse to the current Sarah.
“Just drop me at the mall in front. I want to buy something and spend some time alone.” Sarah cocked her head and gazed out the window.
Ever since she got together with Wesley, she was increasingly disgusted by Rodney.
Even so, she could not let go of Rodney, her supporter, yet.
Rodney pursed his lips dejectedly.
From her tone, he knew that Sarah did not need him to accompany her to the mall.
He dropped his gaze in annoyance, started the car, and dropped Sarah off at the entrance of the mall.
Sarah opened the door and left directly without turning back.
Looking at her silhouette, Rodney suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
Having taken the day off to accompany her to the trial, he initially wanted to accompany her all day. Yet, she left him alone just like that.
He sat alone in the car, not knowing where to go for the first time.
He used to have Shaun, Chester, many more fair- weather friends, and siblings from the Snow family. However, he realized that his circle of friends had gotten smaller ever since the Snow family disowned him.
At this very moment, he caught sight of Wendy’s private car entering the car park.
His eyes lit up, and he quickly went after the car.
Soon, Wendy got out of the rear seat while Mireya got out from the other side with her long and sexy legs wrapped in a pair of blue jeans. She was wearing an ink art shirt, and her long hair was tied i n a ponytail.
At first glance, she looked like a stylish, pretty lady with graceful movements. It was hard to tell that she was nearly two months pregnant.
Rodney zoned out for two seconds before he went after them. “Mom…”
It had been a long while since he last met Wendy, who had not been answering his calls.
Wendy and Mireya turned around, only to see Rodney striding toward them. His handsome face looked so pathetic that any woman would probably be swayed.
Nevertheless, Wendy and Mireya were unlike any other women. Having long since been disappointed in him, Wendy pulled a long face. “Don’t call me Mom. I’ve disowned you.”
Rodney paused for an instant. Wendy continued as she dragged Mireya, “Let’s go. Don’t bother about him. There’s always someone who doesn’ t know his place, trying to play up to the Snow family.
When you come across this kind of person, you’d better keep a distance.”
Rodney widened his eyes, speechless.
Her criticism made him feel like vomiting blood.
