Henry was also present at the hearing, so he instantly stepped forward to rescue me.

We stayed in contact with our lawyers and prepared for the second hearing, hoping for the best. However, Bright

wasn't in favor of pursuing our case further, he suggested.

“I have investigated lawyer Darcy’s history. He is a cunning man with a hundred percent

success rate.

He is renowned for his heartless approach and horrid accusations. It’s not good to risk your good name, Laura.”

But | trusted the supremacy of law, the constitution would definitely help a heartbroken mother to be with her

lost son. Eventually, Bright had to surrender before my choice as Henry grew angry, he glared at him.

Henry turned to Bright, his jaw clenched.

“Would you like to explain why you faked your own death, Miss Laura?”

Sitting in the witness stand, | found myself at a loss for words, my tongue felt heavy in my mouth. Mr. Harold had

already elaborated on my hardships before, but this specific query pinched my aching nerve.

“I was

tortured to death, the fear and my disturbed mental state forcedto take solace in

hiding. It was...”

My detailed

response didn’t appease the court, and Mr. Darcy gave it a new shape.

“So, you mean to say that you don’t trust the law, this system failed to protect you and your

interests?

Then how can you think that court will do justice for you now? Why did you chere?”

“Objection, your honor!”

Mr. Harold stood up, “Mr. Darcy is twisting my client's words!”
