Chapter 449
Shane understood clearly what Bruno wanted to ask, and he smiled slightly: "In the past half a year, because of you, I got sick, and almost died many times, but I also caused you the same pain and severity, I punished you almost to death. But since you gave me the antiviral medicine, my body has completely recovered, and our previous resentment seems to have passed.”Bruno was a bit taken aback.
However, Shane said the same thing Bertha said earlier. He said the same thing Bertha did at the time.
They are both ruthless bloodthirsty men, incompatible opponents, and mortal enemies. How could Shane let Bruno go so easily?
Bruno propped himself up, he leaned against the headboard: "You know, I gave you the antiviral medicine because of Bertha. I didn't want to save you, I wished you would die."
"I know."
Shane's eyes were calm, and his expression was also calm: "This matter, you wanted to satisfy her, but she opened fire and shot you. Besides satisfying your death wish, she also wants to satisfy me. I'm just afraid I won't be able to do it, now that I've satisfied you, I'll let you go."Bruno looked at him in surprise.
“Shane, surely you understand what I mean, if we change positions if you fall into my hands now, I will not let you go so easily.”
“Unfortunately there are no ifs, you have no chance to take me, prisoner, forgive, or continue to resent, the choice is still in my hands.”
Shane's dark eyes smiled as if looking at Bruno. From birth, he had an arrogance and majesty that always radiated a bright light.
His facial features are handsome. Even though he has undergone skin replacement surgery due to burns on his face, his face is still incredibly handsome.
Those deep black eyes, in addition to being cruel when holding power, are also very upright. The pampering and love for Bertha are engraved deep into his flesh and blood. Bruno smiled gently.
"I admit defeat. I finally know why she chose you. In some ways, I'm not as good as you."
The corners of Shane's lips curled up slightly. He patted Bruno's shoulder, his tone gradually becoming serious.
“Let's not talk about this anymore, let's talk about the main thing. Your mother thought you were dead so she sued Bertha in international court, she demanded that Bertha be put on trial.”
Bruno's expression turned serious: "My mother will never stop until she achieves her goal. If this continues, both sides will suffer."
Shane nodded: "So only you can solve this matter."
The two men looked at each other, but the previous battle was no longer there. Because of Bertha, the two of them became rivals who hated each other.
But this time.
It was also because of Bertha that they suddenly shook hands to make peace, eager to discuss a solution.
\---
The trial suspension period has ended.
The princess's side also did not withdraw the lawsuit.
Everyone returns to the court again.
The plaintiff claimed that Bertha shot and killed Bruno and refused to let her go.“Your Honor, we believe that the defendant shot Lance Charles when he was defenseless, which is considered a silent attack, intentional murder."
"The plaintiff, as his adoptive mother, tried her best but was slandered by the defendant, saying she lacked dedication. She has no remorse at all, it's truly disgusting, I hope the judge will give the defendant the heaviest sentence.”
The defendant's lawyers were silent because before the trial was adjourned, what Bertha said in court completely broke all the plans they had planned.
The princess glared at Bertha. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth: "Bertha, no matter how much you change your opinion, the fact that you shot and killed Charles is true, you have no right to refute this matter."
Bertha lowered her eyes, she appeared indifferent and said nothing. The plaintiff's lawyer raised his hand and continued: "The defendant did not object because she felt guilty, that day she shot Mr. Lance Charles. Judge, our side requests her detention..."
He uses reason to denounce Bertha. At this moment, the assistant who was taking notes on the laptop next to him suddenly received an email.
The assistant opened the email, and read the first two lines, a look of surprise appeared in her eyes, and she quickly turned the computer in front of the princess.
The princess read the email carefully. The more she read, the redder her eyes became. She cried without a sound. She cried so much that she suddenly lost control of her emotions.
The assistant lawyer had no choice but to interrupt the trial: "Sorry, Your Honor, our plaintiff has lost control, we would like to postpone the trial again."The Griselda family's lawyer team is preparing to wait for the plaintiff's lawyer to finish speaking. They will use the trump card that Bruno is not an adopted child, plus evidence that Bertha legitimately defended herself and was in danger, so she fought back.
The moment was suddenly postponed, and everyone was bewildered.
However, during this trial postponement, the princess suddenly withdrew the lawsuit without notice.
In this decisive battle, it seems like the princess's side has admitted defeat.
Bertha was confused. Before the second delay, she saw the princess's expression as she looked at the laptop extremely sad. She wondered what was written on the computer.
Or is it because after all this is a royal scandal that the grand princess finally decided to give in to? Venn grabbed her shoulder and led her out of the courthouse.
As soon as they entered the court lobby, the two happened to bump into the princess and Gaye Harold coming out from the other side.
People from both sides faced each other.
The eldest princess stared at Bertha, unable to hide the disgust in her eyes.
"Bertha, now you can stand up and go out. Instead of being escorted away in handcuffs like a criminal suspect, you should be grateful to Bruno. If it weren't for him, I would never let you go."
Grateful to Bruno?
Bertha listened as if she were in a fog. The eldest princess arrogantly said "hmm" then turned and left, not giving her a chance to ask questions.
