She's My Sleeping Pill
Chapter 651: FREEDOM AND RECOVERY
Three days later, on the day that Cory was finally discharged, Simon’s public trial was also held. There were more than a hundred people inside the highest court venue and to manage all of them, the police officers and the jury decided to allow one person from each family to join the trial.
Simon was sitting on the defendant seat with his lawyer which Travis provided for him. He didn’t want to allow the people to ruin someone’s life when it wasn’t his fault to become a family member of murderers.
Some people were staring angrily at Simon while other started crying. He could only lower his head helplessly. He might be free from jail but he won’t be free from guilt. He could have saved those people but he chose to stall for time just to find Jillyanna and her research. He thought that by giving the research to his family, they would stop their experiment. And he was mistaken.
When the judge finally opened the trial and the people confirmed they were all ready, the evidences were finally shown. They will have to examine everything and prove that Simon was not involve in any of the human experiment that his family did.
This may sound unfair to the victim’s family but this will be unfair to Simon if he’s punished for something he wasn’t involved. In fact, he was already punished for staying in jail in this one whole year. Supposedly, he’d get a parole but the public will certainly question the law if they find out about this. Thus, they could only choose this method to prove he wasn’t guilty.
As they continued to examine the evidences, the victims’ families started to hate Simon even more and they were angry at the judge and jury as well.
“Why do we have to go through all this?! That man is a criminal! He allowed my daughter to just die!”
.....
“They even took those street children who were helpless and powerless! They’re inhuman! Monsters! He deserved to rot in jail!”
“QUITE!” The judge stated which silenced everyone. Even so, the tense atmosphere and the hatred of the public couldn’t be extinguished.
“Excuse me your honor. I just received a notification that there’s a witness who wanted to prove that Mr. Simon Summer, the defendant of this case is innocent.”
“Summon the witness.”
Hearing these words, the people felt even more helpless. They thought that there’s no use putting up a fight against the rich. In some cases, this would be true but in Simon’s case, he deserves his freedom.
A man escorted by military officers came inside and gave a slight bow to the judge. He made an oath in front of everyone and took a seat for the defense attorney to start questioning him.
“You said that you are a witness to this whole incident, can you tell us why you never showed up last year?”
The frail-looking man pushed up his glasses and looked at everyone with a calm expression. In truth, he wasn’t really the witness who was supposed to come, it should have been Brown but because of the nature of their work as intel and spies, he couldn’t show up to defend Simon. Thus, they decided to get someone to become his stand-in.
“I thought that, even if he wasn’t really part of the crime, he should still be punished for it.”
“Why do you think so?” The lawyer asked again while the other party smirked against Simon’s disappointed look
To their dismay, the man took a deep breath and smiled apologetically towards the defendant. “Because it was already too late when he reported the crime. I wanted him to be punished for being late with his report.”
“But it is not your decision whether he should be punished or not. Now, you said that you wanted to testify for his innocence but all I can see is you pushing my client over the edge.”
“That’s not really my intention but here,” he took off his necklace and handed it to the lawyer. When everyone had a clear view of the item, they realize it was a flash drive. “This contains all evidences that will prove his innocence. After all, he sacrificed everyone from his family to stop this madness.”
When the flash drive was inserted, flashes of screenshots appeared on the screen. The dates of the messages were dating back to last year and there were many videos as well. Most of the messages were conversations between Brown and Simon.
Meanwhile, Stefan posted a picture on his account after a week of silence. On the picture, Cayenne was eating fruits with Cory while Stanley and Jose sat on the side. Dominic was M.I.A once again due to his work.
-Thank you for all the prayers for her fast recovery. My granny is doing better now.-
Of course, many people were happy upon reading his post but some people weren’t. Napoleone’s men had been paying close attention to every news that would be related to Stefan and this was something they never expected. They thought that the old lady would be dead for certain.
“Boss, didn’t that woman say that there’s no antidote to the poison she made? How come that the old lady is still alive?”
“How would I know?! Ask her corpse if you want answers!”
The man was fuming in anger. He was certain that Denise wasn’t lying to her. Even if she did and she has the antidote, he knew that she wouldn’t be able to tell the information on time. ‘Are they bluffing? Or, is there really a cure to the poison?’
“Could it be that, there’s someone who knows poison better than Denise?” one of the men voiced out which stunned everyone beside him. They never considered that point before but now that he mentioned it, they realized the biggest possibility of his words.
“Damn it! How will I face Napoleone this time?”
“Uhh...boss, if we couldn’t do something to those people, shouldn’t we do something to those who frequently go out of their homes? I remember that two of their boys are working.”
“Brilliant! Why didn’t you tell me sooner?!”
The man grinned widely as he started searching for information. Seeing the glint in his eyes, the two hired accomplice could only shake their heads.
