Chapter 1282
At this time, Calvin, who was sitting in the cab, stroked his wet hair.
He thought, ‘Is it possible for me to take back my love for Rosalie?
Is my love for her too deep for me to do this, or is it because I simply don’t want to?
You know what, Rosalie? I’m willing to sacrifice myself to keep you safe!’
The car ident case was finally in court.
Harriet stood on the dock again.
Although the Griffin family had never said anything publicly about the retrial, the news had been all
over the inte.
This case was different from the one the Summer family went through because the Scott family
didn’t get in the way this time, and Zephyr didn’t even show up, which led many to specte
whether the Scott family intended to make a clean break with the Summer family.
There was even gossip that Zephyr had nned to divorce Harriet.
And this time, Harriet was not as lucky as she wasst time. Without the Scott family’s help this
time, all the evidence proved that she was guilty and made her argument sound unconvincing.
It could be said that even if the trial had not yete to an end, Harriet had already lost.
On the final day of the trial, the judge found Harriet guilty for causing the crash and killing Jocelyn.
He sentenced her to life in prison and deprived her of the political right to life.
Hearing this, Harriet almost copsed to the ground, shouting, “I’m not guilty! I was wronged…”
No one answered her. She was taken back to a police car by judicial police with her arms sped.
Suddenly, Harriet shouted in a sharp voice at Riley, “You did this to me, bitch! Do you think the
Griffin family will treat you kindly after this? No! You’ll only be worse off than me!”
Riley looked at Harriet’s ferocious face, which waspletely different
09:13
from the proud look Harriet had thest time she was acquitted.
“Whatever happens to me after this is none of your business. You’re where you are because of
yourself! If you hadn’t caused that car ident, you wouldn’t have ended up like this!” Riley said
indifferently.
Now she only had hatred for her half-sister.
“It was you who killed Nichs. If he hadn’t tried to protect you, he wouldn’t have died. You would
have!” Harriet yelled with a ferocious face, “You’re the murderer, Riley! Why should I end up being in
prison while you’re all right? Just wait, the Griffin family will send you to prison soon! And you’ll be
worse off than you were in a psychiatric hospital!”
Unlike the crazy Harriet, Riley looked at her calmly and said, “You’ll live the rest of your life in
prison, Harriet, and you won’t get any time off. You will pay for your sins for the rest of your life!”
After saying that, she turned around and didn’t look at Harriet anymore.
From now on, she would never see Harriet again or have any contact with her.
“You son of a bitch, Riley! I’m not done with you. I’m waiting for you in prison, and I’m looking
forward to seeing how you end up…” Harriet kept yelling.
However, Riley didn’t look back. It seemed that the person behind her had nothing to do with her
anymore.
After walking out of the court, Riley ignored those reporters who were waiting outside and got into
the Griffin family’s car to get back to the Griffin residence with Bruce.
“It’s not toote for you to back out,” Bruce suddenly said.
Riley smiled and said, “Back out? Why would I? Now the person who killed Nichs is put into
prison and he could finally rest in peace. Tomorrow is the day I look forward to most, and I can’t
wait.”
Bruce nced at Riley and sighed.
After all these things, his view of Riley was also changing.
Now, he finally got to understand why Nichs would fall in love with this woman and even sacrifice
himself to protect her.
Because she was a very loyal person and people like her were rare these
09:13
days.
He thought, “If Nichs was still alive, he and Riley would probably make a lovely couple.”
“Since you insist, I won’t stop you then. Stay in the Griffin residence tonight. Nichs’ room is still
the same as it was when he was alive, and I’ve already put what you asked for there,” said Bruce.
“Thank you, Mr. Griffin,” Riley said gratefully.
Bruce replied, “Just call me Bruce.”
When they drove to the Griffin residence, Zephyr had learned about Harriet’s trial.
He was not surprised to know that she was sentenced to life in prison and deprived of political rights
for life.
Given what Harriet had done, she could be sentenced to death.
However, he still felt shocked. “Did Riley get into the Griffin family’s car?”
“Yes. Ms. Summer got into a car with Bruce after the trial and it headed for the Griffin residence,”
the subordinate answered.
Zephyr frowned slightly, thinking, “What’s going on? Why did Riley go to the Griffin residence?”
Nichs’ room is still the same as it was when he was alive. Riley had been here before, but now,
when she was in the room again, she had mixed feelings.
“Nichs…” she murmured, thinking about their past.
What caught her attention most was a white wedding dress. She picked out the dress herself and
the Griffin family had it custom-made in her
size.
It turned out that she had told Bruce that she wanted to wear a wedding dress and marry Nichs
when the trial was over!
Even if Nichs had already died, she still wanted to marry him, and although such a marriage
could never be legal, she hoped that she could fulfill her and Nichs’s dream. She wanted her
name to be carved on Nichs’ tombstone.
And she wanted to be buried with Nichs when she died.
09:13
Even though she couldn’t marry Nichs when he was alive, she could do it now.
She knew what the Griffin family was worried about.
After all, she was in her thirties and had a long time to go. They thought she could still meet other
men and start a new rtionship. She shouldn’t marry a dead man for her whole life.
However, all she wanted was to be Nichs’ wife.
