Billionaire’s Reborn Baby Chapter 492
On March 21, Branden’s case began.
A total of 56 defendants, including Branden, Merinda, Pockmark (the group master), Wangle, Jessica,
Leon (the abbot of the GY Temple) and Nikhil, were charged with 12 crimes under the Criminal Trial
Division of the City Y Intermediate People’s Court.
In therge courtroom, 56 defendants stood in a row, with 112 bailiffs behind them.
In the solemn courtroom, the public prosecutor stood up and read, “In 1998, the defendant Brandan
privately asked Leon for help to look for a girl. In the following months, Merinda, Leon, and his brother
Nikhil started human trafficking. Brandan, Merinda, Leon, and Nikhil were the organizers and
leaders…”
“The crime of abducting and trafficking in women and children in ordance with Article 240 of the
Criminal Law … if the circumstances are serious, the death penalty shall be imposed and property
confiscated: (1) the leading members of the group abducting and trafficking in women and children; (2)

cases of illegal trafficking, two cases of illegal possession of firearms, one case of illegal possession of
firearms and ammunition endangering public security, 16 cases of illegal extortion, illegal…”
Ferne lowered his head and typed, “They will surely receive the death penalty.”
Noah replied quickly, “Listen carefully.”
“Why should I do that? I only need to listen to the results. I won’t take thewyer exam. To be honest, I
should record it for Jaquan. Instead of being awyer, he should shift his career and be a perky
judge.” Ferne typed quirkily.
Suddenly Ferne heard a gentle sniff from the front. He looked up and saw Irene. She and her mother
were dressed in ck. They were dignified. However, when hearing the evidence, they burst into tears.
Maybe because they couldn’t believe it, or maybe they could not ept it.
Ferne looked down and continued to text Noah, “Irene and her mother are crying on each other’s
shoulders.”
There was no reply.
Ferne saw that the buttons of ady’s underwear were crooked. He resisted the attempt tough and
typed,
“Ady’s underwear buttons are crooked. I guess they were tied by a man.”
Noah: “Can’t you listen carefully?”
Ferne: “No.”
Noah replied: “Do you wanna get beaten?”
Ferne: “Come and whip me!”
Noah said nothing.
Ferne sent a defiant emoticon: A man with a long face was picking his nose cheekily and saying ‘Come
and beat me’.
Noah: “How do you know that they were tied by a man? Do you have the same experience?”
Ferne didn’t know what to say.
Ferne blushed and hurriedly replied, “I have never tied buttons for a woman. Believe me.”
Noah: “I don’t buy it.”
Ferne didn’t know what to say.
Everyone in the courtroom stood up. Ferne hurriedly stood up as well. The judge said, “A total of 56
people, including defendant Brandan, Merinda, Leon, and Nikhil, are convicted! Now, the court
announces that a total of 6 people, including defendants Brandan, Merinda, Leon, and Nikhil, are
sentenced to a two-year reprieve, and the remaining fifty defendants, such as Wangle, are sentenced
to fifty years’ imprisonment…”
Ferne was stunned. Then, a loud noise came from the courtroom. Apparently, the victims were not
satisfied with the verdict. The judge knocked on his hammer and said, “Court closed.”
The crowd dispersed, but many people were still looking at the defendants in the middle of the
courtroom.
Branden turned around. Irene and her mother nced at them, with calmness as if they had known the
result.
How could this be!? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.
Ferne’s phone trembled. It was Noah.
“Why didn’t you reply to me? Is the result out?”
Ferne stood there, overwhelmed by coldness. Randy and other police officers greeted him. Some
people were greeting each other. Some were talking. Some were leaving. Some were waving. Faces
shed in front of Ferne, and Noah’s face suddenly appeared. Noah looked up at the sky, yearning and
longing for justice. Then his eyes were suddenly darkened with disappointment. He turned around,
leaving behind a lonely figure.
Vincent and the entire city police department had tried hard, so that the court could expedite the
decision and ept the case in public, skipping the first and the second trial. But how could the result
be like this?
Ferne really didn’t know how to reply to this message.
Thinking for a long time, he called Jaquan to ask if there was a remedy.
But Jaquan said, “Vincent called me a few days ago. Didn’t he tell you?”
“What do you mean?”
“It wasn’t for me but for Deon. I just passed on the messages.” Jaquan continued, “Vincent wanted
Deon to exert pressure on the police by his underworld power, just like Emma’s case. So Deon called
the police. This result should be the result after the fight.”
The result after the fight?
Damn it! Ferne flew into a rage.
“But don’t worry. Since Vincent interfered, they will receive more punishment. Just wait and see.”
Jaquan said.
Ferne wasn’t as optimistic as Jaquan. He wished he could chop the bad guys up and feed the dogs.
Shortly after Ferne hung up the phone, Noah called. Ferne hurriedly said in a high pitch, “Guess what
the result is? If you are correct, there will be a reward!”
Noah took a heavy breath, “Death penalty?”
“You are right! We are getting drunk tonight!” Ferne pretended to be excited and asked, “What kind of
wine do you want? I’ll go to the hotel and get it for you. Do you still remember that you took a bottle of
Screaming Eagle and peed on it?”
Noah said, “Cheval nc.”
“What?” Ferne was stunned.
“The wine I peed on was Cheval nc,” Noah said.
“Oh! I make a mistake.” Ferne smiled embarrassedly,” Alright. I’ll bring both Cheval nc and
Screaming Eagle! Wait for me at home! “
Hanging up the phone, Ferne let out a long sigh of relief.
But Noah called Joe, “What is the result of the trial?”
Joe didn’t know how to say.
‘Why didn’t you ask Ferne?’
Joe was very nervous, but he still said, “Death penalty.”
“Tell me the truth.” Noah coldly said.
Joe didn’t dare to say.
What exactly did he do wrong?
