Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

24 Jeslyn… order in court!

The court resumed back from break and this time, there was no suspense at all. Maya ådmitted to all the crimes immediately.

“I faked the video, I cut the telephone wire to prevent Jeslyn from calling the hospital, I threatened Christine to give false testimony in court or else Jeslyn will be killed. Christine loves her sister, so she did everything to protect her sister, hoping she could find out about me and then arrest me while she brings Jeslyn out of prison.

I blackmailed the doctors to cremate the old man’s body to prevent the investigation from finding out’ he was poisoned and also, I spiked Jeslyn’s drink so I could make her take the blame and prove to the court that she was on drugs.”

“Miss Maya, why are you protecting them?” Spid asked.

“I’m not protecting anyone, why should I put my freedom on the line for others?”

Spid nodded like he understood. “Why was there a need for you to do all that?”

“Because old man Lee caused the destruction of my family!” Maya said that with so much bitterness and hatred as she glared at Jeslyn with fire brewing in her eyes.

Spid nodded again. While he was doing his research, he found out about the business deal Maya’s family had with old man Lee which turned sour and wrecked her family years ago.
