My Second Husband novel Chapter 1051

Monique was dumbfounded as the smile on her face gradually disappeared.

Besides, those who thought that the Granger family's reputation was finally going to be besmirched were all stunned too. Even Nelson didn't see it coming.

He sent a message to Richard, "Hold on first!"

Naomi was also bemused.

The lawyer asked curiously, "Madam, what do you mean?"

Carol pursed her lips before saying, "Indeed, she is my husband's superior, but she didn't force us to do anything. My husband was wronged! She was also wronged!"

Naomi could feel tears welling up in her eyes.

The lawyer continued to ask, "However, several witnesses have already testified, claiming that their superior was the one who forced their husbands to commit the crime. How do you explain this?"

"It's only because we were forced by a woman. She came to us and told us that she has intel and dirt on all of us. She threatened to send my brother to prison unless I do as she said."

The lawyer smelt a rat and quickly followed up, "Who is that woman?"

Carol replied, "It's a woman named Monique Chilton. I should have investigated more, but I failed to do so. Nonetheless, I know where she lives."

Carol instantly recited the address of the place where she was brought to previously.

The information was immediately handed over to the police, who immediately sent officers over for investigation.

Monique sat at the very end of the courtroom. Underneath her mask, her expression contorted uglily as she glared at Carol.

How could this b*tch turn against her!

Fortunately, she happened to attend the trial without anyone's knowledge.

The lawyer asked again, "Then, why are you saying this at such a critical moment?"

Carol frowned as she explained, "Although I'm from someplace rural, I am not a fool. I am fully aware of who's righteous and who's not. Miss George has done so much for us. How can I simply doubt her without finding out the truth? I won't be able to live with myself if I really did slander her."

Upon hearing that, Walter, who was standing behind her, looked at his wife proudly.

When all the other men heard that, they all lowered their heads shamefully.

The trial finally came to an end. After immediate verification, it was confirmed that all witnesses other than Carol were framing Naomi.

According to the law, they had to bear the corresponding legal responsibilities.

As for Carol, she was allowed to go home straight away because she was brave enough to tell the truth.

Naomi waited for a while outside the courtroom. When she saw Carol coming out, she quickly stopped her.

"Madam Lance."

Carol stopped in her tracks and walked towards Naomi awkwardly. Before Naomi could speak, she was already apologizing.

"I'm sorry, Miss George. I should have discussed it with you earlier."

Naomi shook her head and laughed, "Of course not! Madam Lance, I was really touched. I didn't expect you to tell the truth. I thought you would accuse me just like the others."

Carol waved her hands and dismissed the possibility, "Shouldn't it be expected of me to tell the truth? Moreover, like I said a while ago, I am not a fool. I don't believe anything that comes out of that woman's mouth."

"But..." Naomi suddenly remembered what Carol had said about her younger brother.

"What about your brother?"

Carol gritted her teeth and sighed, "He reaps what he sows! That brat, I didn't expect him to lie to me for so long. All these years, I thought that he was studying diligently, only to find that he has been secretly gambling behind my back. I won't let him off easily, and neither will my parents if they're still alive and well."

"Now that there are people supervising him on my behalf, I'm relieved. It's better than letting him get in trouble outside."

Naomi couldn't agree with her more.

"Thank you, Madam Lance!"
