Chapter 107: Want to Put Me in a Deadly Situation?
“I’ve used the bath oil made by the Mo Family’s second young lady last time, and the effect was very good! It’s even better than the best product sold by the Mo Family. I think her talent is not lacking at all,” declared a woman in the crowd, unable to hold back.
“I’ve used it too, and the effect was indeed very good. I was even planning to ask her for some more…”
Listening to the surrounding discussions, Mo Xinyu and her party’s expressions turned sour.
They knew all too well that Mo Jun had done it on purpose last time, deliberately giving away bath oil just to showcase her talent!
“Your Honor, you’ve heard it yourself, my client is very talented, and she has no reason to be jealous of Miss Mo Xinyu,” said Mo Jun’s lawyer with a light smile.
The Mo Family’s lawyer sneered coldly, “So you’re admitting that your client is talented and also capable of making fake medicine?”
“I’m only saying she’s talented. Doesn’t Miss Xinyu also happen to have the talent to make fake medicine?” Mo Jun’s lawyer counterattacked calmly, yet each sentence hit the nail on the head.
The Mo Family’s lawyer humphed coldly, “But you’ve misunderstood my point. When I say that Miss Mo Jun is jealous of Miss Mo Xinyu, I’m not referring to jealousy of her talent or beauty, but jealousy of her status and love life. As everyone knows, Miss Mo Jun’s status is not as prestigious as Miss Mo Xinyu’s, and since childhood, Miss Mo Jun has always been infatuated with Miss Mo Xinyu’s fiancé, Mr. Chu Yi. Ever since Miss Mo Xinyu and Mr. Chu Yi got engaged, Miss Mo Jun has harbored resentment and sought revenge on Miss Mo Xinyu. Mr. and Mrs. Mo, as well as Mr. Chu Yi, can testify to this.”
“So what you’re saying is, my client did all this intentionally to frame Miss Mo Xinyu because of those reasons?”
“Exactly! She turned love into hate, which is a well-known fact. And indeed, the person who made the fake medicine is her. Even if you deny that her actions were not out of spurned love, you can’t deny the fact that she made fake medicine. Therefore, Your Honor, I implore you to hold Miss Mo Jun accountable for her actions. All of this is her fault. And my client Miss Mo Xinyu is innocent; she is the victim and should not have to bear such charges because of her sister’s jealousy!”
The Mo Family’s lawyer’s arguments rang with conviction, leaving apparently no room for Mo Jun to counter.
Because the evidence was real, an undeniable fact!
“Defendant Miss Mo Jun, do you have anything to say?” the judge asked Mo Jun.
But Mo Jun just looked calmly at Mo Zhenggang and the others, “Do you really wish to treat me this way?”
“What do you mean by that? Mo Jun, if you make a mistake, you should take responsibility for your wrongdoing!” Zhang Qin couldn’t help but say, her temper being more impulsive; she had been itching to confront Mo Jun for a long time.
Mo Zhenggang also spoke in a stern and indifferent tone, “You should have known this would be the outcome on the day you framed us.”
Mo Xinyu, however, lowered her gaze without a word, showing an expression of complete disappointment.
Mo Jun let out a faint smile, “Aren’t we family? Even if it was my mistake, to evade responsibility, you’d condemn me to death? Not even a bit of effort to defend me, striving to protect me with all your might?”
“Did you think of protecting your sister when you framed her?” Zhang Qin couldn’t help but retort.
“Zhang Qin, aren’t you my mother? Why is it that from beginning to end, you only consider Mo Xinyu?” Mo Jun suddenly stared at her piercingly.
Caught off guard, Zhang Qin argued boldly, “Mo Jun, I side with justice, not kinship.”
