Chapter 493: Be My Witness --- Part 2

Silence engulfed the air inside that room. Her words left a long lingering silence among the Jury members since they were told that Sienna would be the prime witness of this accusation that had been fallen upon Ayra.

Angelica couldn't hold back her anger anymore. She literally roared from her place, stumbling few steps forward to curse at Sienna venomously,

" Sienna!!! What are you speaking of? Just tell them the truth! Do it!"

Sienna only stiffened after her mother's warning. But whatever their plan was, she couldn't speak according to their plan after she saw the vision. She needed fresh air to cry and endure her fears since there were too many eyes.

She gulped hard as her eyes continued forming tears subconsciously,

" I..told them the truth..I can't speak anymore.. Please Excuse me.."

Sienna almost ran away from the room after she managed to squeeze out those last words, leaving all the members especially Angelica shocked. Mr.Levon had also dark expression hanging on his face since he expected to taunt back Cedric through her confession but now, everything had ruined because of that naive and coward girl.

Cedric was the first to react on this matter. He chuckled leaning against his chair, one hand laid behind Ayra's back as if to warn everyone that he would be her back always and forever,

" Pity! Your witness has run away. Now, who is next?"

Angelica's jaw clenched as the outcome didn't come out like she expected to be. Glaring at Cedric who was full of victorious smile, she blurted out in front of the Jury anxiously,

" But I was there too. I can be the witness, can't I?"

Mr.Levon was going to agree with her decision but Mr.Lincon shook his head, denying. He glared back at Angelica meaningfully to elaborate,

" We have rules, Lady Angelica. Someone with past crimes history can't be the witness of our Trial."

Lincon's remark sealed her mouth in no moment. It was a shame for her to remember that how her involvement in murdering a maid was exposed to the Jury. Luckily, she wasn't the main planner behind that. So she easily escaped after giving some compensation.

Robert casually interrupted eyeing between his overexcited wife and Cedric nervously,

" Then how we do solve this issue, Mr.Lincon?"

Cedric added with a dark chuckle, giving a long stare to Mr.Lincon who was in daze over the entire matter,

" No witness, No Case. Isn't it the same rule, Mr.Lincon?"

As much as Mr.Lincon wished to deny, it was the truth of their own duties. If the case didn't had at least one eligible witness, it was meant to be closed and without Sienna's confession, they had no eligible one.

Mr.Levon seemed persistent to continue with the interrogation. He glared at the couple meaningfully and huffed with disbelief to continue staring at his own members questioningly,

" How is it possible? We have found the beast wounded by ourselves. Tell me, what is the explanation behind his wound then? Who hurt the beast? Me?"

Levon had point on speaking of this matter. They found the beast injured which was clear that someone had really entered into the Grove and tried to harm their magical beasts. Mr.Lincon nodded slowly, agreeing and pulled his eyes up to glance at Ayra whose expression was full of disbelief,

" Lady Ayra! Apart from three of you, who else was there with you? We need an answer after all."

Surprise took over her features when she was questioned by the Jury again and this time, she was in real dillemma since she had to take a name in order to dodge her own fault. But before her lips formed into a word, Cedric responded from her side in a nonchalant voice,

" Me! It was me who hurt the beast, Mr.Lincon."

Ayra's eyes snapped open widely when Cedric confessed openly and she was sure that it wasn't his slippery tongue but he did it willingly for her. She muttered from his side,

" Cedric.. Don't why are you doing.. this.."

Cedric tilted his head back, smiling and hussed her in a playful voice,

" Huss, Princess! You talk too much. Just follow whatever I am doing."

Mr.Lincon was also shocked by his words. Deep down, he could sense that it was all Cedric's play but there was no way to prove it here. Hence, he continued with the play, shifting his eyes between the couple,

" Fine since you are admitting. But King Cedric, who is your witness here? We can't justify someone by his words only. We need solid eye witness."

Cedric smiled replying with ensure,

" Of course! I am not so dumb, Mr.Lincon. My wife is the witness in this incident. Right darling. Tell them that you saw me casting spell on the beast?"

Ayra's jaw fell open in disbelief. Her pair of drawn eyes stared hard at Cedric who kept smiling and saving her at the same time. She muttered clenching her teeth together,

" I can't do this, Cedric. I can't..Let me tell them the truth..I can't watch you getting punished for me..I can't.."

Ayra panicked as she kept saying to him anxiously. She kept her voice super low to be heard between them. Cedric smiled back at her widely. The concern in her eyes for him, her tears that had formed at the corner of her eyes in heartache, it was all reward for him. He was glad to see her worries for him.

Nothing could delight him more than that!

He warned whispering back to her to calm down her anxiety,

" Just say, Princess. Don't you have trust on me? Fine! I can promise you to find Debisa if you follow my order here. Be my witness, please!"

Ayra's jaw dropped after his tempting offer. This man had no seriousness about his punishment if she really told the jury like what he told and here, he was manipulating her to speak lies.

She sighed deeply and glanced around before pulling her eyes back on him, she blurted frowning,

" Sometimes I feel like strangling you, Your Highness."
