A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 355

In the solemn and stately court, Judge Faden announced, "In accordance with the decision of the collegial panel and through courtroom investigations and debate, there is insufficient evidence to convict Cordy Sachs of bribery of 1 million dollars and tax evasion of over 7 million.She is to be immediately released."

The moment the announcement was made, cheers sounded across the court.

Not everyone wanted to see Cordy captured.

Most wanted the court to seek justice.

What's more, the case was filled with twists and turns which explained the enthusiastic response toward the announcement.

Noel was horror-stricken.She looked at the joyful faces around her and almost yelled out loud.She had thought that it was a foregone conclusion that Cordy would be thrown into jail.

Yet...yet...everything was screwed up! Why in the world was Cordy so capable that she could escape unscathed time and time again? Was even Jessica and the Stuarts no match for her? Noel gritted her teeth with anger.

Jessica was not much better, but because John was seated next to her, she did not dare to express what she was feeling inside.

Conversely, she had to pretend to be very happy.

That psychological distortion almost drove her mad! She had done so much to put everything in place; all that was left was the missing piece in the puzzle.

Yet she had to lose this missing piece! She had thought that she could rest assured with Noel overseeing things, but clearly, she had been careless.
