The lawyer told Sonia that she could appeal the court’s decision, but there would be no point since the judges would still maintain their initial adjudication. “I’m so mad!” Charles slammed his fist against the seat. Carl didn’t say much and simply lowered his head as if he was thinking about something.

Sonia watched as Tina was brought out of the courtroom, Titus and Julia following behind her. Titus and Julia seemed to notice Sonia’s gaze as they both turned around to flash her looks of victory. Julia, in particular, looked as if she wanted to walk right up to Sonia’s face just to laugh at her.

In the past few days, Julia had been running around seeking help since she had assumed that her daughter would have to go to jail. She had suffered countless rejections and eye-rolls. Just an hour ago, Sonia and Toby had looked down upon her as if she were nothing but trash. She was furious whenever she thought about it. However, she felt much better after the court case was over. It was Sonia’s turn to get angry then. At that thought, Julia gave Tina a fond stroke on the head before she let out a hearty laugh while looking in Sonia’s direction.

Sonia clenched her fists and gave Julia a cold glare before she shifted her gaze to Tina. Tina’s head was hung low, and Sonia couldn’t see her expression. However, Sonia guessed that Tina was probably celebrating silently.

 

After the Gray Family left, Sonia stayed back as she still had to attend William’s trial. His charge was more serious than Tina’s charge of attempted harm toward Sonia. After all, Sonia never got hurt as a result of Tina’s attempts to harm her. William’s case was different since he had directly splashed acid on Sonia, and he ended up receiving a three-year sentence. The rest of the netizens who had sent wreaths and knives received their relevant punishments as well—some were arrested while others received milder punishments.

On the other hand, the marketing accounts and media outlets were in greater trouble as they had done more than just to defame Sonia. The outcomes of their cases were still unknown as they had committed other crimes as well. Most of them had to deal with charges that were independent of Sonia’s case. Sonia didn’t bother much about these people because it was good enough for her to know that they would eventually face the consequences that they deserved.
