Chapter 32 – A visit to the door
Fairen Evert was in a low mood for a few days. After accumulating courage for a long time, he finally took the initiative to get Evans Winters out the day before the trial.
It was raining heavily and her hair was unintentionally wet from the rain that blew in from nowhere.
When Evans Winters came over, he saw her standing in front of the cafe waiting for him, her eyes wavering, a pale and soft figure.
Fairen Evert got straight to the point, the emotions that had been brewing for a long time broke straight away with the downpour. She wanted to smile and laugh, not wanting him to see how upset she was, but the words came to her lips and Fairen Evert just bowed her head: “Don’t waste any more time for me, I did do this.”
The pseudo scene was created seamlessly, plus there were people testifying, the evidence was overwhelming, the fact that she had embezzled public money was hard evidence, there was absolutely no hint of a way back, only a reduced sentence, jail was an inevitable fact.
She was dead in the water.
Evans Winters heard this sentence also some did not react: “What are you talking about ah little Fairen? The lawyer side has …”
“It’s really my doing, you don’t have to bother, thanks for taking care of me this time, I’m sorry.” She took a deep breath: “The public money is my private money, the woman in the video is also me.”
After saying that she directly crossed over the man, turned her head and left the place.
Anyway, it is already powerless to return, so why bother … others?
In the heavy rain, Fairen Evert sighed, held an umbrella, and walked step by step into the rain.
On the day of the trial, it was raining heavily, pattering rain, gray clouds, the whole world a blur.
She mustered up the courage to call her mother, the words to the mouth, tears silently flowed down.
Fairen Evert asked Uncle Wang to take care of her mother, and after everything was settled, she went to court.
Sitting in the defendant’s chair, expressionlessly listening to the evidence of the other side, the aggression in her heart accumulated and almost broke her down, and the fingers on her hand became tighter and tighter.
When she comes out, no matter what price she pays, she also wants to know who framed her, first in the positioning will be disgraced, and then falsely accused her of embezzling public funds … so thinking, her fingertips gradually turned white.
Evans Winters sat in the gallery, looking at the man with his head bowed, his heart empty, of course he knew that the money could not have been moved by her, although the woman in the video and she looked exactly the same, although the world was doubting her words, but Evans Winters believed.
He believed that Fairen Evert was not such a person.
He privately helped her pay off the three million dollar debt and tried to ask the company’s upper management to settle the matter privately, but for some reason, they seemed to have colluded, and each one became very difficult to communicate.
It is a circle of people, the other side directly told him: “This matter mainly depends on the president’s intention, if he agrees, then the matter will become, but … when we ask him privately, he did not state, so we do not dare to withdraw the lawsuit privately.”
But who knows, these days, Maxton West with the evaporation of the same, completely unable to find where he went, phone calls do not return, the whereabouts of unknown.
This made Evans Winters feel very bad.
Just after the judge based on both sides of the evidence, and the jury to communicate, finally made the final verdict.
Just when everyone knew that there was no way to turn this matter around, the door was opened.
Maxton West, casually dressed in a black suit, had a team of lawyers behind him who had been ordered to present a document to the judge.
Fairen Evert looked at all this in awe, how could he be here?
When she saw the document, she was puzzled.
What did he want?
Evans Winters also saw this starry-eyed man, and was a bit puzzled, wasn’t he indifferent to Fairen Evert’s affairs? How come he also …
“Maxton West, you do not go too far, he is still pregnant …”
Not waiting for him to finish, the man directly turned around and glanced at him coldly, and said in a deep voice: “Quiet, or get out.”
In the end, Fairen Evert’s entire body was dumbfounded after she came out of the courtroom.
It wasn’t until she got home that she learned the reason for her acquittal: the camera across from the manager’s office had caught a scene of Fairen Evert herself going in to hand in her paperwork.
The weird thing is that she happened to see her co-worker on her way out the door, and the two brushed past each other without making conversation, but that’s where the weirdness of things got weird.
When the woman on that video came out, there was no shot of her colleague, and after checking, this video had been cropped.
In other words, someone deliberately set her up.
Thanks to Maxton West’s own consent, he took Fairen Evert straight out of the courthouse.
Evans Winters stopped him in the car: “Maxton West, are you a man or not? She’s carrying your child, you have to look at the child’s face instead of the adult’s.”
Because he was too excited, even though Fairen Evert kept pulling his hand, the man was still unmoved: “This matter can be solved with a word from you, why do you have to find the evidence to clear her name?”
Fairen Evert also looked at the man as soon as the words left his mouth.
Maxton West coldly grunted, directly ignored him, and looked at Fairen Evert: “Still not coming over?”
She was startled, the turn of events was too quick for her to react.
After thanking Evans Winters, she got into the car and Maxton West’s expression didn’t look too good as he gave her a sideways glance, “Your little lover is quite protective of you.”
I don’t know if it was a psychological effect or what, Fairen Evert felt the temperature around her much lower.
“Young master, you … think more about it.”
She lowered her head, and at this angle Maxton West could not see her expression.
Fairen Evert’s heart was very grateful to Evans Winters, never thought there would be such a person willing to protect her so much.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
She thought, next time she must invite Evans Winters to dinner, to thank him properly.
As for today’s incident, I don’t know why, but Fairen Evert felt bad when she thought of the cold look in his eyes.
The next day, before things settled down, Erma Capra came straight to the door.
Fairen Evert had just sent the agitated supervisor Zhang away when the door was knocked again.
She paused for a moment, walked over and opened the door, but to her complete surprise, the person who came was actually Erma Capra.
She was not impressed by this woman and her attitude was limited to being polite: “Miss Capra, may I ask what is the reason for your coming to see me?”
“I can’t come to see you if there’s nothing wrong?” This tone of hers that did not lower her voice in the slightest made Erma Capra uncomfortable and looked around her office coldly, her eyes filled with disdain.
