Ss spoke with confidence. He watched Sophia with a piercingly sharp gaze. He looked as if he was
able to see through her. His overbearance was not to be belittled.
Sophia''s heart was pounding. She felt a lump stuck in her throat. Even Simon felt his chest tighten.

He had heard that Ss was the top prosecutor in Sna City. He was a stubborn man and extremely
difficult to handle.
The job of a prosecutor was very sensitive. They were people in a position of power. The powerful and
wealthy often want a prosecutor or two on their side. This was so they could use the prosecutors at a
crucial moment.
Many prosecutors looked righteous. However, they would work for the tycoons in secret, with both
parties reaping mutual benefits.
As for Ss, he wasn''t just born with an overwhelming sense of justice. He was even the second
generation of a plutocrat.
What would happen if anyone tried to bribe him?
Hah, his pockets were so deep that they''d be suffocated!
Ss presented new evidence.
An image of a stic evidence bag appeared on the screen. In the bag was a white-colored medicine
bottle.
Sophia nced at the screen and frowned. Surprise was written all over her face.
"Ms. Kirkman, do you remember this medicine bottle?" Ss questioned as he looked at her with an icy
gaze.
Sophia shook her head nkly. She replied, "I don''t. I don''t know what that is."
Ss couldn''t help but scoff. He asked in a pressing tone, "You don''t know what that is? This was the
vessel that you had used tomit murder. How could you be unaware of it?"
Simon''s heart began to race. He was a smart man. Yet, he couldn''t figure out what Ss had in his
mind at this moment.
"What... What vessel? I have never killed anyone. How could there be a vessel used for murder? I don''t
know anything about that!" Sophia was breaking out in cold sweat. But she could still remember
Simon''s words.
It didn''t matter who questioned her or what questions were thrown at her. He reminded her to keep on
denying everything thrown her way.
Other than that, she was to say that she didn''t know about it. She had to make sure that she wasn''t
being led around by the nose.
"The witness didn''t actually witness your act of murder. But there are traces of you administering
poison."
Ss squinted. He cocked an eyebrow and stated, "Perhaps you think that there''s no longer any
evidence to begin the re-investigation of this case with. After all, 20 years have already passed.
"But I want to let you know that you are too naive. A witness''s testimony may not bepletely
reliable. However, material evidence will always be there. So long as you don''t have them destroyed in
time, they will always be there. Material evidence doesn''t lie.
"Even if you had intentionally destroyed evidence at that time, investigation technology has progressed
rapidly since then. There may have been aspects that couldn''t be examined 20 years ago. It would be
easy for us to look into them now."
Sophia was so frightened that she had turned pale. Her mind reyed everything that had happened in
Anne''s room 20 years ago.
Indeed, she had nned to poison her. Nheless, Anne had caught her in the act. So, she wasn''t
able to go through with her n to poison Anne.
After that, she and Anne had a heated argument. At that time, she had always felt that Anne was a
pushover who could be trampled on. To her surprise, Anne was like apletely different person then.
She had threatened to expose her evil deeds to the world.
Sophia was exasperated. Thus, amidst their fight, her hand slipped. She ended up pushing Anne down.
Coincidentally, there was no one in the back garden when Anne fell. Shey in the pool of her blood
pitifully. Yet, she still looked as beautiful as a vibrant oil painting.
At that moment, Sophia panicked. Immediately after, she used her own clothing to wipe off her
fingerprints on the balcony railing. She had also wiped her footprints cleanly off the floor. She then took
the poison she brought with her and left the crime scene.
What other evidence could there be?
She couldn''t have left any other evidence at the scene.
