The next morning, Rose and Jordan's trial was held. The first one we were in court was Jordan.
The courtroom was full of trial participants as well as journalists. Jordan sat in front of the judge, hinting that his status was not the defendant but rather the suspect because the evidence provided was all concrete. Not to mention the living witness presented, Mr. Jerry, who was a fat man who contributed to the incident five years ago. The lawyer who defended Jordan could not do much because the chances of winning were very small. He could only help to ease Jordan's punishment.
Demands for prosecution were submitted, as were public prosecutors who presented evidence. The judge asked Jordan, did he admit to all the charges against him?
The outbreak of the Jordan case made the public uproar, shocked and disappointed by the image that Jordan displayed. Before, he was adored. However, it was now scorned and reviled. The wheel is turning. Especially after Jordan admitted all the demands. As a result, fines for tax evasion and imprisonment on other charges are in sight.
The fine was 92 million Yuan. That's about 200 million rupiahs. In addition, Jordan was also sentenced to 7 years and 8 months in prison for his actions to harm Jasmine Liang, which damaged Jasmine Liang's reputation and loss.
After the verdict is announced, the judge knocks the hammer not times which means the decision has been final and can not be contested by anyone. However, earlier the judge said that Jordan was entitled to appeal for his sentence.
During the trial, Jordan kept a lot of silence and only answered as necessary. Guilt and shame covered his heart. When the reporter asked for his opinion or his feelings, Jordan did not answer. By the court and the police, Jordan was immediately taken to the guards, where Jordan would spend 7 years and 6 months in it.
An hour after Jordan's trial was over, Rose's trial was held.
This time, the audience and journalists were more. Rose walked stiffly towards the courtroom. He sat with his face down, not daring to raise his face when one by one the demands on him were read.
"Because of jealousy towards your brother, Jasmine Liang, defendant Rose Liang committed a crime by paying people to harass Jasmine Liang to the effect of causing material and inner harm to the victim. Did the defendant confess to the crime?!"
The judge read the charges and waited for Rose's answer. Hearing that, Rose looked up. His face looks grim. He probably didn't accept the demands?
"Yes! I admit!"replied Rose loudly.
The court room became silent. Usually, the perpetrators of the crime answer in a soft and soft voice, or just a nod. However, Rose answered loudly and glared at the emotion-filled eyes.
"I did it because he deserved it! On what basis, he who is adopted has everything that should be mine? Even he got everything I wanted? Dad, mom, boyfriend, career? On what basis does a human who does not know his origin get all of that?!"rose asked loudly and loudly.
Silent court. Everyone was stunned by what Rose said. On what basis? Wasn't that fate and Rose couldn't accept it?
Why blame others when Rose herself has liver disease?!
PLAKKK!!
The courtroom came back boisterous when it heard the sound of a loud slap. A woman looked at Rose furiously. His chest looked up and down, emotions were so high.
Rose held onto her cheek which felt extremely hot. Then see who slapped him. "Mom-Mom?"
"Don't blame my daughter for that dirty mouth of yours! You are the one who does not know!! You are the one full of envy and envy. You're the one who created trouble for yourself!!" Madam Liang loudly rebuked Rose.
Angry stirred. Instead of regretting her actions, Rose turned on Camelia for her actions.
The courtroom was rowdy for a moment. Many trial participants who cheered Rose with various insults and swearing. The judge knocked on the hammer to condition the courtroom.
"Miss, please return to your place," the judge asked Mrs Liang.
"Once again you say bad about my daughter, I don't hesitate to shut you up!!"madam Liang said with a pointed Rose.
"I-mom? You defended her?!"
"Yes! I'm defending my daughter! What are you doing, huh?!"
"Mrs, please go back to your place or you will be sanctioned!!"the Judge once again struck the hammer.
Madam Liang just hugged him. He spreads the view. Journalists are busy taking pictures. Just realized what he was doing was interfering with the trial.
Madam Liang then bowed, "i'm sorry." Then move out and leave the courtroom. Originally, Madam Liang only wanted to follow Rose's trial and hear the judge's verdict on Rose's fate. However, Rose's answer sparked her emotions.
"The trial will continue! Please conducive!"
Throughout the trial, Rose was not at all calm. His mother seemed to hate him. Not to mention the public's cynical gaze. If Rose had answered out loud, then the next charge was answered with a nod.
"Defendants please stand up to hear the judge's verdict!"
Rose could only round her eyes. 100 million Yuan and a prison sentence of 15 years?! Rose quivered.
"N-no!" Rose muttered softly before long she fell unconscious. Except for the court clerk, the others were just watching and there were some who were still sneering.
That was how, Rose and Andrean's trial was completed. Both men were sentenced to prison and fines.

"Master, the court has issued a verdict." Hans walked into Andrean's room, reporting the results of the trial that had already been published to Andrean.
Gegas, Andrean grabbed the tablet that Hans thrust out. His eyes quickly discussed the news.
"They deserve it!"andrean said, returning the tablet to Hans.
"The lawyer we sent will take care of the payment of the fine from Miss Rose's assets. And we've also decided on a contract with him. Penalties for contract payments will be sent in addition to payment of fines" Hans said.
Andrean nodded briefly.
"Solve business with him. I don't want to deal with him later, in any case!"edict Andrean with great emphasis.
"Then, Master what's your next plan? After breaking up with Miss Rose, your family and the elders are demanding that you get married immediately, considering that you have not given any grandchildren or male descendants to continue the family lineage," Hans asked, andrey is the granddaughter. The male offspring of him is more demanded. Although there was already Crystal, grandfather Gong who already knew clearly could not accept a child who was not Andrean's flesh blood as a potential heir.
"Who says I don't have a son? Have you forgotten that important thing, Hans?" Asked in a cold tone.
Hans frowning. Important stuff? "What do you mean ... Lucas and Liam?"hans asked to be sure.
"Who else is it? Looks like your memory is getting worse" Andrean sneered. Hans smiled knotingly.
"Biological, you are indeed their father. However, in reality, that looks, you are someone else. Moreover, since childhood they had known Young Master Shane as their father. Even though they know you are their father, I think it will be quite difficult to calm them down. Especially her mother's heart" Hans said.
Andrean. What Hans said was essentially the same as what Camelia said yesterday.
"You're right. But …." Andrean changed his eyes. "I'm not giving up!"andrean was full of determination.
"Don't you forget Miss Crystal, too. After all she is your daughter. You have to consider his feelings. I'm saying all this is not to shake you. However, so that you have careful preparation because to establish a relationship is not as easy as it looks," Hans said again.
Andrean smiles.
"I understand. I've been thinking about this since long time. Moreover, the grandfather who demands that Lucas and Liam are right my son should return to the Gong family and surnamed Gong. To be honest, of all the possibilities this is what I'm worried about. You know, no, this clan's business is so sensitive. Moreover, the Shane Family was not a small family. In addition, Lucas and Liam were already in the family. Plus, with the wedding of Camelia and her husband. I think Shane's family's gonna be hard on this."
Andrean sighed harshly. Honestly, it disturbs his mind.
"But .. doesn't matter. There's gotta be a way. Most importantly, Camelia wanted to work together. He said love needs sacrifice and struggle, maybe I'll face it soon."
"Then, I give you my full support."
"Ah yes, clear my schedule for three days next Sunday. I'm going out of the country."
"Where do you want to go, sir?"
Andrean just smiled wryly. Not answering made Hans cluck.
Andrean then looked at his phone. Then his forehead crept.
Why haven't you contacted me yet? Did he forget or what?
Andrean muttered in his heart. He's waiting for a call from Camelia. However, when it was almost 12:00, Camelia did not call him. Though if calculated, Camelia should have arrived long ago.
