If the court decided she was guilty of a major crime, she could get a death sentence on hold, or a life sentence.
If they found her guilty of a lesser crime, she would still get at least twenty to thirty years behind bars.
Was there even any chance left for her? She'd already broken the law!
"Hiring someone to rape? When did Keira ever do such a thing?"
Carolina turned pale and felt a chill running down her spine.
Chloe gave her a nonchalant look without any expression.
"Six years ago at the piano competition, it was Keira who paid Chase Hicks. She was even smarter back then and opened an overseas account under someone else's name. I had to go to great lengths to investigate this."
Carolina almost lost her balance; she was so shocked.
Everyone was stunned by this revelation. They already knew that Chloe was wrongly accused of seducing the judges, and that it was actually someone else's doing.
To their surprise, it was Keira.
Six years ago?! Good Lord, how old was she then? Was her mind already that filthy?
"Mom, no... I didn't, I didn't..."
Viviana held Keira tightly, completely panicked and at a loss.
"You're talking nonsense! Keira would never do such a thing!" Viviana's voice was shrill, she was a typical mother defending her child.
Chloe glanced at Lance who was equally shocked, and next to him was the equally shocked and horrified Amelia Schneider.
"Also, she..."
Chloe suddenly pointed at Amelia, "She is a drug addict. The one who supplied her with drugs..."
Chloe laughed and looked at Keira, "Is her."
After the school celebration party, Amelia had a falling out with Keira, her reputation was ruined because of Keira. She was caught being intimate with a man in front of many people, and took all the blame a few days later.
Chloe acknowledged Keira's sweet talk, but someone who had their life ruined and still stood up to defend that person, was truly annoying.
Throughout the investigation, the result was not surprising at all.
Upon hearing the blame suddenly shifted to her, Amelia took several steps back.
"You're crazy, you lying bitch!" Amelia screamed at Chloe, looking pale.
"You can take a drug test to see if I'm talking nonsense." Chloe said coldly.
"Why should I?! You bitch!"
Amelia firmly refused, but someone was already in front of her.
"Please cooperate."
"Get off me! Don't touch me!"
Amelia waved her hand frantically, scratching a policeman's chin. The law enforcement officer immediately said,
"She's assaulting a police officer and obstructing justice, take her away!"
"Let me go! Chloe, you bitch..."
The police were efficient, and Chloe's rhythm was on point.
Despite Amelia's protests, she was eventually taken away. Her physical resistance spoke volumes about the truth.
