Chapter 16: When the Tables Turn
Regardless of today's judgment, Riane was finally ruined.
In Aldrich's heart, all the kindness that she showed to him was just an act and her evilness was finally revealed.
After all of this, Aldrich would definitely not want her anymore.
Perhaps he would shoo her away, just like how he dealt with Caroline back then.
Her career was also ruined.
As a celebrity, she could imagine that her social media account had already been taken over by netizens.
All of her endorsement ads, film and television contracts in the past had probably been ruined, and she would also face a high penalty for breach of contract because of her bad image.
She was feeling tired as she sat on the chair.
Yes, she had hoped that Charlene would die.
She was even generous enough to let Aldrich slept with the woman so that when the day like this would come, she wouldn't be blamed for anything that happened.
She did that on purpose because if Charlene died in Aldrich’s hands, then she could also pull him into the water.
They could be on the same boat.
They could be together in the same situation.
Aside from that, she knew that Caroline had such a good relationship with her sister, that once she would find out that something happened between Charlene and Aldrich, she would never get back with him again.
She had sacrificed her own man once because she believed that she would have eternal life with Aldrich.
That's why she did it.
‘But how did Caroline find so much information?’ she wondered.
After the incident, she had used Aldrich’s name to ensure that Caroline would not get a single job from any company.
She had also spread photos of Caroline's exposed body all over the Internet.
‘So in the end, Caroline should not have found a job and she shouldn't have any money now, which means that she is also homeless”
‘And no matter how beautiful she is, what is the use of it? Those photos show how dirty she is.Even if she will go to a clubhouse and dance on stage, no wealthy man will fall for her and give her money!’
‘So, how did she end up like this? How could it be!"
While Riane was feeling mad and confused, Aldrich's lawyer had already stood up to make his closing statement.
"Hello, everyone.On behalf of my client, Miss Riane, I plead guilty to the charges."
"What do you mean? When did I admit it?" Riane stood up quickly.
At this moment, her face was filled with ferocity.
She was very far from the graceful and generous lady that she had always been when she was in front of the camera.
"Silence!"
The judge frowned, "Defendant, it's not time for you to speak"
The defense lawyer continued, "At the same time, I deny all charges on behalf of my client, Mr.Stanley.I will also sue Miss Riane, on behalf of Mr.Stanley for putting him into a situation a year ago, in which she set him up to have sex with other woman while he was unconcious."
Riane felt like something ringed in her ears.
Realization started to hit her.
‘Aldrich and his lawyer was betraying me!"
‘Instead of helping me to be free from this situation, they even pushed me down! No wonder, these two person were allies.
And now that she was like this, no one would help her anymore.
She knew that she had nowhere to go.
On the complainant's side, Caroline's lips curled up into a cold smile when she heard the lawyer's words.
‘Now, the table has turn around’’ Caroline laughed at the back of her mind.
Unfortunately, she also knew that this evidence could not imprison Aldrich.
After all, most of the incidents were planned by Riane, so Aldrich was not guilty.
‘But what if he was passive? He was also one of the reason why Charlene died! Caroline's eyes was filled with hatred. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
'If this man could not be jailed, I will use another method to take revenge!’
One day, she wanted him to kneel in front of Charlene's tomb and deeply repent! Editor's comment: Well! I'm excited for Caroline's next step but there's a part of me saying that her way of taking revenge might not do good anymore.
