Chapter 152

• Judge Thomas addressed the courtroom with a solemn tone, announcing, “Today, we will deliver the final judgment in this case. Sarah Mitchell, if you have anything to say, please step into the witness box.”
• Sarah stood up, her demeanor composed yet tense, and walked to the witness box, where she took her seat. Ethan's eyes were cast down, filled with disdain for Sarah. He couldn’t shake off the hatred he felt towards her, especially knowing the role she had played in his current predicament.
• As Sarah glanced in Ethan's direction, he felt a wave of anger wash over him. Nelson, Ethan's attorney, was confident that Sarah would confess to her wrongdoing. He recalled what Lily had told him—Lily had offered Sarah shares in the Gray Company, a CEO position, and even a sum of ten million dollars, hoping that this would persuade Sarah to confess her mistakes in court.
