The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 1270

As the trial approached, the news media in Lommore also reported relevant events and many of them became hashtags, hotly discussed by people in the city.

The past involving Riley, Nicholas, and Zephyr was what people began to talk about again. The online comments concerning those matters were also varied. Some people said they were sorry for Nicholas. Others felt that Zephyr was unlucky because it was his ex-girlfriend and wife who fought a lawsuit. What was worse, the two ladies were half-sisters, which made the situation intricate. Some people sympathized with Riley, hoping that she could seek justice for herself.

Surely, some netizens commented that Riley deserved it. When she was the fiancée of Zephyr, she seduced Nicholas. It was good news for everyone that she was sent to a psychiatric hospital.

Riley just skimmed those comments and didn’t take such them seriously.

After going through so many things, she didn’t care about the opinions of those who didn’t matter to her.

Now, all she thought about was to punish Harriet because she not only sent Riley to the psychiatric hospital but also caused Nicholas’s death.

Riley could hardly bear that such a good man like Nicholas died because of Harriet.

Riley murmured, “Nicholas, I must get justice for you!”

Outside the courtroom was a crowd of reporters on the day of the trial Riley and all members of the Griffin family were present. When Riley g out of the car, those reporters rushed over. Riley was surrounded by them and could barely move.

Fortunately, the security guards on this spot helped stop the reporters and finally let her in.
