"Just wait and see. One day..." Betty''s thoughts were interrupted by the sound of footsteps. Javier and


    Betty spun around to look at the visitors, only for their faces to fall.


    Jasper and Alyssa had showed up at court, followed by a few members of the Taylor family—Jonah


    Cyrus, Tatiana, and Winston''s three wives. They expressed their support for the victim through their


    actions.


    Landon would have shown up to express his support at such a critical time, but he decided to keep


    Laurenpany at home because the case involved Lauren''s mother. He worried Lauren might suffer


    a breakdown when she learned about the details.


    Betty clenched her jaw as her eyes rested on Alyssa, but thetter did not pay any attention to her at


    all. With no way to release her anger, Betty raged on silently.


    Alyssa wore light makeup for the trial and a white pantsuit with her self-designed sapphire brooch on


    the chest. She carried herself with elegance and ss.


    Jasper stood tall beside her in a smart and tailored ck suit, entuating his figure and authority.


    They took the seats in the first row. The aisle seemed like a huge divide that set them apart from the


    Becketts.


    "Dad, look what Jasper is doing! What''s in his mind?" Betty did not miss the chance to drive a wedge


    between the father and son. "How dare he stand on our opposite and sit with the Taylors as the


    president of the Beckett Group? He''s humiliating you and making the Beckett Group aughingstock!"


    Javier gritted his teeth as he fumed with resentment.


    "L, the day has finally arrived." Colene sped L''s hand and teared up when she thought back on


    L''s suffering.


    L inhaled deeply and gave her a light nod with a nervous heart. Anne and Nina had been waiting for


    this day, just like she did.


    She had never dreamed that she would see Sophia in court for the judgment. Putting aside the


    oue, she was d to see Sophia held ountable.


    "Karma is real. Sophia will receive her punishment for the crimes shemitted," Mandyforted


    L gently as she sped L''s free hand.


    She set an icy gaze on the defendant''s seat.


    Alyssa overheard the conversation among her three stepmothers. Instead of feeling relieved, she


    grappled with a heavier heart.


    This was the final showdown, and she would not back off. She would not be satisfied with a 10-year,


    20year, or even a life sentence for Sophia. She wanted Sophia to be handed the death sentence, for


    she wanted an eye for an eye.

    Each of her movements tugged at Jasper''s heartstrings. Soon, he picked up on her anxiety and


    hurriedly held her hand. Then, their fingers interlocked.


    Heforted her, "Lyse, don''t panic. We need to have trust in Steven and Sean. We will win this fight."


    She looked up into his alluring eyes as her racing heart gradually calmed down.


    "Jonah, don''t you have an important meeting to attend at the KS Group? Why did you show up? What


    about thepany?" Cyrus questioned with an astonished expression.
