“Even so, we don‘t have any evidence, and the fact remains that Ritchie tried to attack Sebastian first. Don‘t worry. There are still a few days before the trial. We‘ll try our best to build our case.” Seth doubted he would win, but he didn‘t want to give up so easily.

However, Sebastian didn‘t leave any trail of clues. Seth couldn‘t find a single shred of evidence to prove that this so–called “accident”

was thought out.

At last, on the day of the trial, the jury arrived at a verdict that it was Ritchie who tried to attack Sebastian with a sharp weapon, which was life–threatening to Sebastian.

Thus, in an act of self–defense, Sebastian pushed Ritchie away, causing the latter to fall down the stairs. Sebastian‘s countermeasures didn‘t necessarily cross the line, and his actions were entirely justifiable. In a word, Sebastian was announced to be not guilty.

“I‘m not convinced.” Seth stood up and talked back to the judge

“Then submit your request to the supreme court for a second trial.”

After saying that, the judge left the courtroom Outside the courtroom, Sebastian happened to run into Seth. Still wearing his signature gentle smile on his face, Seth approached Sebastian and whispered in a low voice, “What a perfect plan! Don‘t think that I can‘t see through your tricks, Sebastian. Just wait and see.”

Sebastian hadn‘t had much contact with Seth since he was a child, but he never had a good impression of him. He always felt that Seth was a two–faced person.

“I don‘t know what you‘re talking about.”

After saying that, Sebastian walked past him without looking back. Seth did as the judge said and lodged an appeal for a retrial.

However, the Supreme Court upheld the original verdict and denied his request. In the end, Ritchie was forced to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair, while Sebastian got away with it scot–free.

Patrick was well aware that Seth was competing with Sebastian. In the business world of Seacisco, news that the Klein brothers had been fighting against each other had spread like wildfire, which put Patrick in a dilemma.. He refused to pick a side and simply hoped that his sons would stop fighting.

Ever since Seth and Sebastian started fighting, Seth had come home less and less frequently.

One day, Patrick was surprised to bump into him at home.

“Are you still busy fighting the Larson Group?” Patrick asked grimly.

Seth shrugged off his coat and put it aside. There were dark circles under his eyes, but he still wore that same gentle smile, which made him look approachable.
