Chapter 267 Death (2/2)
”Yes, but I have my reason.” Before the judge responded, Gloria continued, ”everyone is raised by parents. It's known to all that lovers love each other. No woman can bear that her husband cares about another woman every day. I am jealous that Zelda has stolen the attention of my husband. I am jealous that even now that Zelda has divorced my husband, my husband still cares about her so much.
I really can't stand it, so I hired people to kill her, I did all this for the reason. Please understand me. I killed Zelda for some reas
death, her political rights being deprived of.”
After hearing the final verdict, Gloria stood up and said, ”no! I don't accept it! I'll withdraw the charges! My lawyer didn't come today. If he had come, he wouldn't have gotten the case in this way.”
Ashley had forgotten the thing of appeal. So she asked in a low voice, ”Gloria wants to withdraw an appeal. Does her verdict not come into effect?”
The lawyer on the other side nodded and said, ”theoretically speaking, this is the case. However, Gloria's death is almost fixed. Even if she appeals, the Supreme People's court is likely to maintain the original sentence. If Miss Ashley is still worried about the result, you can find a way to get Gloria sign a copy to promise that she will not withdraw the charges.”
”A personal statement? Is it workable?”
”As long as Miss Ashley has something that can threaten Gloria, it's highly possible. Such as Sheila who was just driven out of the court. Isn't Gloria too guilty to care about her daughter?”
”Thank you. I know what to do.”
After the trial, Ashley walked out of the court and as expected, she saw Sheila who was waiting outside. As soon as she saw Ashley, she pounced on her and shouted, ”you bitch, it's all your fault. You wanted to kill my mother! You bitch!”
The gentle lawyer who stood beside Ashley stopped Sheila. ”Sheila, Gloria murdered Zelda. If she were to put to death, it would be what she deserves. Justice has long arms. Gloria should be blamed for her ugly heart.”
People who had just come out of the court looked at them.
”What are you looking at! What are you looking at?” Sheila got hold of her wrist by the lawyer and could not get close to Ashley. She had to yell at the top of her lungs, ”I'll call an attorney to withdraw an charges. Ashley, you can't stay arrogant for long! I'll withdraw the charges!”
”Withdraw the charges...” ”Of course you can make an appeal, but if you don't want the property, you can withdraw the charges.” Ashley got close to Sheila when she saw that the crowd around them had almost dispersed.
