Before the trial begins, the court will first hold an in-court meeting.
In some cases, the parties may reach a settlement agreement at this meeting, and if not, the case will proceed to trial.
In the conference room, Nina Sinclair and Sierra Sinclair sat on opposite sides.
Each had their own lawyer beside them, with the judge sitting in the middle.
The lawyer on Sierra’s side was the dedicated lawyer of the Lancaster Group.
He was invited by Vincent Lancaster to handle this case, and in his view, it was a small case with conclusive evidence, merely needing to go through the motions.
What a waste of talent!
Sierra’s lawyer exuded arrogance and scornfully said, "Your Honor, the plaintiff on my side does not accept any mediation and only wants the defendant to pay the proper price!"
Before appearing in court, Sierra had already instructed that Nina should receive the harshest punishment, and he too would gain many benefits as a result.
Sierra’s phone was still live streaming. If it were any ordinary person, they might not be able to stream during the trial, but considering Sierra and Vincent’s status, there were some exceptions.
The live stream had reached the number one spot in Veridia, with tens of thousands of people simultaneously flooding in to watch this trial for intentional injury.
The fans watching above were all commenting.
"Such a vicious woman should be sentenced, don’t reconcile with her!"
"Reconciling would only embolden such people!"
The remaining comments echoed this sentiment, all advising Sierra not to reconcile.
During the wait for the trial, Sierra found time to start live streams, playing the victim.
The fans, who watched every day, had their anger stoked to a high, naturally wanting to see Nina pay the price.
Upon hearing Sierra’s lawyer’s words, Nina’s lips curved into a faint smile.
She raised an eyebrow, snorting, "Oh, really? Quite a coincidence, I don’t plan to reconcile either."
As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere in the conference room grew tense.
Apart from Nina’s lawyer, many people looked at her with a ’has she lost her mind?’ pitying look, as if she had just cracked a joke.
The judge cleared his throat lightly and said, "Since both parties are unwilling to reconcile, let’s proceed to trial."
The group stood up together and headed towards the courtroom.
As Sierra passed by Nina, she whispered, "Nina, you caused the death of Vincent and my baby, you must give us an explanation for this. If I were you, I would give up the futile resistance."
Inside, Nina sneered.
Sierra thought her plan was flawless, but she’d soon see what expression she’d have when presented with the video and recordings of the bribed doctor.
"Save it, we’ll see who’s crying later," Nina rolled her eyes, bypassing Sierra and leaving directly.
Vincent wore a grim expression, finding Nina always unyielding, which led to today’s situation.
Once she falls from grace and ends up in jail, she’ll understand the need to yield.
Sierra watched Nina’s arrogance, frowning.
For some reason, she felt a vague uneasiness. How could Nina be so confident unless she had something to rely on?
She quickly suppressed this doubt.
This time, there was absolutely no chance for a comeback! Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn NovᴇlFirᴇ.ɴet
After going out, Nina saw Julian and Sharon Lancaster sitting in the gallery. Julian wore a simple white shirt and black trousers, his posture upright and handsome, appearing modest and low-profile, with strikingly good looks that stood out in the crowd.
Sharon gestured a ’cheer up’ sign towards Nina.
Seeing that they came to support her, Nina’s lips curved into a gentle smile.
She felt that she was not alone.
