Chapter 534
Ste''s health was not in a good state, and she was still a child at heart.
Keegan did not understand why she wanted a baby.
‘It''s like a child taking care of a child!'' he thought.Keegan felt like it was not the best time to have
children, so they had a huge argument about it.
At that time, the quality of Albert''s products was also a problem that involved Ste.
This incident made an impact on Chandler''s project, and the board members of thepany kept
asking Keegan for an exnation.
Paired with the disagreement about the children, the two got into a serious argument.
After they quarreled, Keegan went back to cleaning up Albert''s mess, so he was not home for a while.
‘Both of these issues urred during July ofst year...! Keegan thought, and his heart tightened.He
did not know about the sleeping pills nor when the medical report was released.
A lump started to form in Keegan''s throat as he realized that though Ste hid Dusk Gxy from him,
she never once hid her feelings.
He was the one who ignored them.
Ste was not good at keeping her emotions to herself.
If Keegan had paid more attention to her, he would have known everything earlier.
When Marshall finished his opening, the judge began to ask for the defense''s case.
Be had hired a goodwyer for Tammy.
He did not deny Marshall''s evidence but instead questioned the medical report.
Têxt ? N?velDrama.Org.
Ste''s medical report was issued in July ofst year, and the defendant only really started making
snarkyments about her in January of this year.
So, the defense attorney asserted that Ste''s depression did not have a direct rtion to the
defendant''s remarks.
"In summary, we maintain that there''s no necessary causal rtionship between the two events.
There''s no denying that the intiff suffered from depression, but it''s evident that it was not {caused by
my client''s actions.
Her poor mental health could have derived from different reasons.
Maybe she had a bad life, or maybe she is someone who is predisposed to mental illness."
He then looked at Ste and said, "Your honor, if I may, I would like to ask Ms.
Jewell some questions."
"Sir, I think the defense attorney is one of your college ssmates.The defensewyer was Ted
Eldrich.As his name suggested, he would take on any case as long as money was involved and did not
care whether his clients were guilty.
One of the most famous cases he covered was the poisoning case in Calton University''sboratory five
years ago.
Various parties provided testimonies that pointed directly at the suspect.
However, since no fingerprints or DNA were found in theb, there was no direct evidence linking the
suspect to the crime scene.
In other words, there was no way to prove that the suspect had nted the poison.
The suspect had brought the poisonous substance back to their dormitory, and it was found in the
laboratory''s water dispenser.
However, they could not find a link in the chain of evidence.
They could only prove that the suspect illegally carried the highly toxic substance.
Ted honed in on this detail and turned the case on its head.
What started as a poisoning case was ressified as involuntary manughter.
The suspect, found carrying poisonous substances, was only sentenced to five years for causing death
due to negligence.
The case became sensational at that time.
Thoughizens criticized Ted all over the inte, it still did not affect his reputation.
Many rich people hired him to represent them in court to escape from being sentenced to prison, and
Ted mainly made money from them.
Keegan did not like how the man dealt with things, so he never tried to befriend him.
During the poison trial, Ted questioned the witnesses and found ws in their testimonies, which turned
the entire case on its head.
So, Keegan''s heart sank when he heard Ted say he wanted to question Ste.
