Best Revenge: Being My Ex-Boyfriend’s Aunt novel Chapter 140

Soon, Terry Miller was brought into the courtroom.

Shaun stared at the man with a piercing gaze. "Who was it who collaborated with you to replace the electrical cables with inferior ones?"

Terry locked his eyes with James and pointed at the latter. "It's him."

Flustered, James shouted, "You’re lying. Did you receive bribes from Catherine?"

Terry replied flatly, "It wasn't her but you who bribed me. After the fire took down the hotel, you transferred two million dollars to my son, who’s living abroad, and ordered me to shift the blame to Catherine Jones."

All color drained off James' face. Sally began to look concerned as well.

Miles was incensed. "So it was you who replaced the electrical cables! What’s the matter with you? Trying t o deceive me by shifting the blame to Catherine Jones?" 2

An enigmatic smile flashed across Shaun's face. "Mr. Clark, the Jones family is even sacrificing their own daughter. They aren't trying to deceive you. They're just trying to save their nephew."

The courtroom broke into chaos at the sound of that.

"Do you think Jeffery Jones knows about this?"

"Come on, how could he not? He's the president!”

"Oh goodness, do you think James Lennon is his illegitimate son? Why else would he sacrifice his daughter to protect a nephew?"

"I heard a rumor before that the Jones couple dislike this daughter. It turns out to be true. They're vicious."

The Jones couple were utterly embarrassed by the criticisms. Jeffery said impatiently, "Attorney Hill, please choose your words carefully. My wife and I had no idea about this. We didn't know that Terry was bribed.”

Shaun nodded slowly before revealing a receipt." Perhaps the two of you have no clue, but not too long ago, Mr. Jones received a coffee maker set worth two million dollars from James Lennon."
