Chapter 466 - At Risk (2/2)

Chad heaved a sigh and shook his head. Lana looked at the wall clock. ”Fifteen minutes more before they would call us back inside the courtroom…” she whispered, waiting for Xander's further instructions on how she would proceed further once again called for the trial.

The trial would end today, and a verdict would soon follow. Lana was confident they could win and make Yun pay for all his crimes. However, because Yun had Yera in his hands, the table could be turned around if Xander dropped the charges.

Lana sympathetically looked at Xander… He had to make a crucial choice at this point, and she knew it was hard for him.

Xander's heart was pounding as he closed his eyes. He was praying, asking for guidance and wisdom on what to do.

Time flew away quickly and soon everyone was called out to go back to the courtroom. Yun had this triumphant smile and a big grin over his face while he exchanged glances with Xander, who was also about to enter the room.

Yun could easily make out how defeated Xander's look was, and it was then that he became more confident of his victory. Very soon all his enemies would be killed and the only one left to claim the throne would be him and no one else. Even if his brother would not wake up, that bi*ch Raine would have no claim to the throne. He had every right. No woman could claim the position as a leader.

Liam was walking behind Yun and his men when he accidentally bumped into one security who secretly handed him something. Liam took it and put it in his pocket and proceeded inside the courtroom.

He looked at Lana who was also staring at him and Liam could foretell from her weary face that Xander had decided to drop the charges. And that would mean that Yera was yet in the captivity of Yun's men.

Liam cursed and shifted his gaze at Yun, who was grinning still like a maniac, feeling he had already won the case. He was sitting in a very calm and relaxed mode, unlike his hysterical and shouting self in the court before lunch.

'What's taking her so long?' Liam mused and looked at the clock. Soon the judge would enter and the trial would resume.

'Raine…' Liam quietly breathed, hoping the news would reach Xander's side before the trial resumed. He looked around and saw that Chad was still not in the room. Liam thought Chad was probably waiting for any good news outside since the use of mobile phones was not allowed inside the courtroom of Mirage Triad.
