Her Seven Little Bodyguards
Chapter-202

Melanie breathed a sigh of relief. "As long as they don't trace it back to us, that's fine."

She could not let any accidents happen to her anymore as her image had already been tainted in the eyes of her loved one, Hanson. If her name was ever involved in this matter, it would be game over for her. As long as she had the opportunity to return to his side, why would she care about how long it would take?

Although she and Josie had made all the proper arrangements, they still felt inexplicably anxious.

Early the next morning, the police station announced the time and place for Vania's hearing as soon as they started work. Shortly after that, media reporters flocked to the court in droves to get the best spot and started their live broadcasts accordingly, which attracted a large number of viewers.

The hearing started as soon as the clock struck the appointed time. Firstly, the judge allowed the plaintiff―Jude's adoptive father-to make a statement. The man then retold his experiences as pitifully as he could while the media gave him enough screen time to shine. Meanwhile, there were also discussions going on the Internet about his exaggerated sob story.

'Suddenly, I feel like he's not even sad. In fact, he looks a little happy.'

'He's about to get his justice, why wouldn't he be happy?'

'He's so pitiful. Not only is he cheated of his money, he also lost his child. I support him in defending his rights.'

After the man finished crying, it was Vania's turn to rebut his words. A representative from the Legal Affairs Department of Galaxy Corporation spoke on behalf.

The representative articulated in a calm but eloquent manner, "First of all, we would like to explain Miss Vania's suspected charge of child abduction and trafficking. Five years ago, the boy involved, Jude, was a product of bribery and illegal trafficking committed by Tana, a nurse at Hammond International Hospital. Then, through the middle man-Wesley, he was then sold to Wade, who is also the plaintiff today. Around the same time, Ms. Vania has established a fund to assist the police in tracking down abducted children. After that, when the criminal gang was caught, we received information about Jude. Through that, we found out that Wade was a child abuser and that became the very reason why Miss Vania legally adopted Jude. We've compiled the relevant evidence and brought them to the court. After the trial, we will not give any form of explanation to this question."

As the trial was broadcasted live in realtime, all the evidence was publicly displayed, and it was enough to explain the truth behind the case.

'The verdict got reversed again? Is Vania a god at this?'

'I thought she was the mastermind of the crime, but I didn't expect her to be the person funding the police in this investigation.'

'Where did the plaintiff get the confidence to frame Vania?'

'Vania has too much evidence without any loopholes and it's clear from a glance that it isn't fake. If it wasn't for the public trial, I really wouldn't have believed it.'

Seated at the very end of the courtroom, Hanson was a little surprised by Vania's funding.

Meanwhile, the trial was still ongoing and the head of the Legal Affairs Department continued, "Secondly, we must make the police confess to their crimes and hold them accountable for it." Immediately, a recording of the conversation that Vania had when she was forced to add her signature in the police station was played. Everyone at the trial listened to the content in horror while the police officers had been speechless from the shock long ago. How can there be a recording? At that time, Vania was the only one in the police station.

Hanson frowned as he listened to the recording as all he could hear was the name 'Melanie'. So, is this all a set up by Melanie? Why is she targeting this child? He glanced at Larry, who immediately walked to an empty corner and picked up his phone to give a few orders before returning to his seat.
