Chapter 1051
Monique was dumbfounded as the smile on her face gradually disappeared.
Besides, those who thought that the Granger family''s reputation was finally going to be besmirched
were all stunned too. Even Nelson didn''t see iting.
He sent a message to Richard, "Hold on first!"
Naomi was also bemused.
Thewyer asked curiously, "Madam, what do you mean?"
Carol pursed her lips before saying, "Indeed, she is my husband''s superior, but she didn''t force us to
do anything. My husband was wronged! She was also wronged!"
Naomi could feel tears welling up in her eyes.
Thewyer continued to ask, "However, several witnesses have already testified, iming that their
superior was the one who forced their husbands tomit the crime. How do you exin this?"
"It''s only because we were forced by a woman. She came to us and told us that she has intel and dirt
on all of us. She threatened to send my brother to prison unless I do as she said."
Thewyer smelt a rat and quickly followed up, "Who is that woman?"
Carol replied, "It''s a woman named Monique Chilton. I should have investigated more, but I failed to do
so. Nheless, I know where she lives."
Carol instantly recited the address of the ce where she was brought to previously.
The information was immediately handed over to the police, who immediately sent officers over for
investigation.
Monique sat at the very end of the courtroom. Underneath her mask, her expression contorted uglily as
she red at Carol.
How could this b*tch turn against her!

Fortunately, she happened to attend the trial without anyone''s knowledge.
Thewyer asked again, "Then, why are you saying this at such a critical moment?"
Carol frowned as she exined, "Although I''m from somece rural, I am not a fool. I am fully aware of
who''s righteous and who''s not. Miss George has done so much for us. How can I simply doubt her
without finding out the truth? I won''t be able to live with myself if I really did nder her."
Upon hearing that, Walter, who was standing behind her, looked at his wife proudly.
When all the other men heard that, they all lowered their heads shamefully.
The trial finally came to an end. After immediate verification, it was confirmed that all witnesses other
than Carol were framing Naomi.
ording to thew, they had to bear the corresponding legal responsibilities.
As for Carol, she was allowed to go home straight away because she was brave enough to tell the
truth.
Naomi waited for a while outside the courtroom. When she saw Caroling out, she quickly stopped
her.
"Madam Lance."
Carol stopped in her tracks and walked towards Naomi awkwardly. Before Naomi could speak, she was
already apologizing.
"I''m sorry, Miss George. I should have discussed it with you earlier."
Naomi shook her head andughed, "Of course not! Madam Lance, I was really touched. I didn''t
expect you to tell the truth. I thought you would use me just like the others."
Carol waved her hands and dismissed the possibility, "Shouldn''t it be expected of me to tell the truth?
Moreover, like I said a while ago, I am not a fool. I don''t believe anything thates out of that
woman''s mouth."
"But..." Naomi suddenly remembered what Carol had said about her younger brother.
"What about your brother?"
Carol gritted her teeth and sighed, "He reaps what he sows! That brat, I didn''t expect him to lie to me
for so long. All these years, I thought that he was studying diligently, only to find that he has been
secretly gambling behind my back. I won''t let him off easily, and neither will my parents if they''re still
alive and well."
"Now that there are people supervising him on my behalf, I''m relieved. It''s better than letting him get in
trouble outside."
Naomi couldn''t agree with her more.
"Thank you, Madam Lance!"
Carol replied, "Don''t mention it! You''re always nice to us, so we definitely won''t forget your kindness."
As they were talking, Nelson''s cell phone rang. He said with a faint smile, "I''m going to pick up this
call."
Naomi nodded and said, "Okay!"
Seeing this, Carol remembered what Monique said to her that day, and she couldn''t help but look at
Nelson.
Naomi was perplexed and asked, "What''s wrong?"
Carolmented, "Mr. Luther and you look like you have a great rtionship."
Naomi didn''t say anything, but the happy expression on her face was self-evident.
Even though Carol was straightforward, she could still read the room. She was rather dubious about
what Monique had told her, especially since Monique wasn''t really a truthful person. She was most
likely weaving lies to trick her.
Hence, she decided not to point it out.
In the end, Carol did not say anything and just gave a slight reminder to Naomi.
"Miss George, you''d better keep a watchful eye on the people around you. At the very least, you''ll be
able to pick out the rotten apples before it''s toote."
Naomi didn''t think much about thatment. She thought that Carol was talking about the people she
had helped before, therefore she replied casually.
"Everyone is very nice to me, so I''m very lucky! Let''s go, I''ll send you home!"
Meanwhile, Nelson received a phone call from Richard.
"I think I saw someone resembling Monique Chilton running out of the courtroom a while ago. I have
sent someone to chase after her, but they failed to catch up."
Realizing that he had missed the boat to catch Monique, Nelson''s heart skipped a beat.
He thought that Monique wouldn''t dare to show up at the courtroom. Unexpectedly, the most
dangerous ce was also the most inconspicuous hiding spot.
A person like her would definitelye to the scene just to check out the events that unfolded.
It was such a pity that an amazing chance to catch her had slipped by.
More importantly, Monique''s hatred towards Naomi must have intensified for sure!
"Keep track of Monique''s whereabouts and actions. In addition, I need some skillful bodyguards."
Richard chuckled, "I have already made the arrangements even before you asked. You want to protect
Miss George, don''t you?"
Nelson raised an eyebrow and smirked, "Looks like it''s time for you to get a girlfriend. You''ve never
cared about such miniscule details in the
past!"
"Great!"
As soon as he hung up the phone, Naomi and Carol came out.
She sensed that there was something amiss upon noticing Nelson furrowing his brows.
"Don''t tell me... She really is your neighbour?"
Nelson truly didn''t want to mention Monique in front of Naomi. However, he had to give Naomi a
warning as times were desperate now. He had to avoid Monique hurting Naomi in any way.
"Maybe!"
Naomi was bewildered as she gasped, "Why is she targeting me then?"
Nelson looked at her, but his words were stuck in his throat. He only managed to mutter, "She..."
