Chapter 315: Courtroom
That was the catch why Liam accepted Mr. Yun's case. Liam had to make sure he won his trial for Shawn Ken's sake, his newfound cousin, for him to live a normal life or else he would make sure Shawn would go back to the bottom of the pit from where he ca up.
Liam clenched his jaw but maintained his cool.
"How many tis do I need to repeat myself, Mr. Yun? How could I defend soone who doesn't fully trust ? I'm sure you are well aware of my capabilities, but all clients I defended till date never kept a single detail from regarding their case." Liam nonchalantly comnted while he loosened his tie.
A roguish smile appeared on his face while Lana's composure popped up before him. His tigress owned the floor so well, and he felt so proud.
"Are you grinning at ?!" Yun exclaid with his sharp eyes shooting daggers at Liam.
Liam shrugged his shoulders, adding fuel to Yun's flaming anger. He was about to say more when one of his n rushed inside the room and handed him his mobile phone.
"It's Long…" the man remarked. All the lines from Yun's face disappeared, and a satisfied smirk replaced it while Yun listened to Long from another line.
"Good, then… Good work..." Liam heard Yun say before ending the call.
Yun with a mocking smile looked at Liam and scoffed, "Don't bother anymore Attorney Sy about asking for more details. I have already done your job. Soon, Xander Yang will pull out from this trial and I will be free to do what I had wanted to do always."
Liam's brow's knitted and said, "What do you an?"
Yun grabbed his cigar and puffed so smoke before boasting, "You see… I'm a prince of the Yue clan. No one can bring down easily. Let tell you this secret since after this trial, we will surely not et again."
Yun leaned on Liam's side and whispered in his ear, "I am actually guilty of all those cris and I will keep adding more cris repeatedly to my journal, Attorney Sy… Including your life… Your cousin Shawn… and many more.
Let tell you this… You are now part of the plan, that's why you are here… It's like hitting two birds at the sa ti. Killing you and your newfound cousin. It's all a piece of cake for . You've been lured into a trap like Xander Yang..."
Liam had a calm face and smiled, "I guess you're not aware how we Ken's do our work properly… You don't finish my job Mr. Yun because it's only who can finish what I started."
"Sir, we already relayed the information and video to Xander's side," one of Yun's n reported. Yun laughed triumphantly, like an evil monster.
"Good luck, then attorney Liam. But I guess we won't be able to see each other again after this trial." Yun chided at the thought to kill Liam together with Xander and the rest afterwards.
"We definitely won't see each other again, Mr. Yun." Liam aningfully whispered.
anwhile, at another room, Xander was hysterical after receiving a call from his wife…
"Xander, calm down please and trust when I say this. I sohow feel that everything will be to our advantage." Lana muttered with a hesitant voice.
Chad and Xander both looked at Lana with confused eyes. Lana bit her lip, wondering as well if her suspicion was right, but her hunch was telling her she was right.
"I know Liam too well… And I think they have a plan. He told , earlier, not to panic even if the situation cos to worst and just continue with the trial and present everything that we have so that Yun can get punished. He told you should do the sa no matter what happened. Now I believe that he knew so underhanded tricks like this would be played for sure, but he assured that nothing bad would happen to your family Liam." Lana explained.
"But that's my wife and our babies, Lana… how do you expect to risk it? Do you expect to just believe so unclear words from him?" Xander growled as tears swam out of his eyes. He was in significant pain at the thought of his wife and babies being in danger like that.
Chad heaved a long sigh and said, "I agree with Lana Xander…. Even if we pull out now, Yun will not keep his word and you know that."
Xander felt his body weakened. Ten folds… His world was crumbling apart. He was aware of Lana and Liam's point, but how could he compromise his wife and babies. Yes, the possibility of Yun not keeping his promise was too high, but still… there was at least a chance for him to get his wife back if he backed out from the case!
What other choice did he even have to assure Yera and his babies' safety? There was only one choice… He could only take a risk with the choice to pull out and drop his charges against Yun.
For the first ti in Xander's life, he could not easily decide on what he should do because whatever decision he should make, he was aware that his wife and babies' lives were at risk.
Lana looked at the wall clock. "Fifteen minutes more before they would call us back inside the courtroom…" she whispered, waiting for Xander's further instructions on how she would proceed further.
The trial would end today, and a verdict would soon follow. Lana was confident they could win and make Yun pay for all his cris. However, because Yun had Yera in his hands, the table could be turned around if Xander dropped the charges.
Lana sympathetically looked at Xander… He had to make a crucial choice at this point, and she knew it was hard for him.
Ti flew away quickly, and soon everyone was called out to go back to the courtroom.
Liam was walking behind Yun and his n when he accidentally bumped into one security who secretly handed him sothing. Liam took it and put it in his pocket and proceeded inside the courtroom.
He looked at Lana who was also staring at him and Liam could foretell from her weary face that Xander had decided to drop the charges.
Liam cursed and shifted his gaze at Yun, who was grinning still like a maniac, feeling he had already won the case. He was sitting in a very calm and relaxed mode, unlike his hysterical and shouting self in the court before lunch.
Liam looked around and saw that Chad was still not in the room. Liam thought Chad was probably waiting for any good news outside since the use of mobile phones was not allowed inside the courtroom of Mirage Triad.
