Chapter 1542 Court Session


    Darren tried his hardest to convince the police that Bonnie was innocent. Unfortunately, the police didn''t


    believe anything he said and even showed why he was not a suspect.


    He had really thought his n was going to work. But now, Bonnie''s entire future and innocence were


    left in the hands of a jury in court tomorrow.


    With nothing else to do at the police station, Darren decided to leave. There was still a bit of time


    before Bonnie''s trial and he couldn''t let time just pass by without trying to find another way to help her.


    Since there was no other way but to go through with the trial, Darren searched everywhere for the best


    possiblewyer. He wanted the best possible chance of winning, especially since the love of his life


    was in trouble.


    When he finally found what he was looking for, Darren quickly took action. He immediately put together


    all the documents thewyer wanted and handed them to thew firm that same day.


    Even after all of his efforts, he knew the chances of winning the case tomorrow was still less than fifty


    percent.


    Darren didn''t believe in any kind of gods or deities. His whole life, he had only ced his trust in


    himself. But at that moment, for Bonnie''s sake, he prayed with all his heart and soul that they would win


    tomorrow.


    The next day, Bonnie''s trial happened as nned.


    Thewyers from both sides argued fiercely for hours. While that was happening, Darren sat quietly


    among the audience, staring at Bonnie from afar.


    He noticed that she had lost a lot of weight and looked somewhat miserable. Even though he had paid


    someone on the inside to take care of her, a cold cell was still too harsh of a ce for a young girl like


    her to be in.


    After a while, Bonnie finally saw Darren across the room. When their eyes met, the two of them could


    tell how much they missed and loved each other.


    No words were spoken but they instantly understood each other''s thoughts. Time spent away from her


    had also caused Darren to lose some weight. The dark circles around his eyes were clearly visible to


    anyone from afar. At that moment, Bonnie knew in her heart that Darren had tried his best to save her.


    Unfortunately, no matter how powerful a man Darren was, he still had to abide by thew.


    In the end, after countless hours of stressful deliberation, they lost the case. Bonnie was ordered to go


    to prison and await her sentencing.


    Darren was obviously pissed. But seeing the love of his life was more important at that moment. As


    soon as he walked out of the courtroom, he immediately called some people in order to set up a visit


    with Bonnie in prison. He had to, because right now, he couldn''t bear not being with her anymore.


    The thought of how much she has suffered and was about to suffer shattered Darren''s heart into


    pieces. The pain felt like a sharp knife had been stabbed through his chest.


    After a few hours, Darren drove to the prison where Bonnie was being kept. He arrived just a few


    minutes after the truck transporting her got there. Fortunately, his request to visit her was quickly


    approved. He felt a bit excited when he realized that he was finally going to be able to hear her voice


    again.


    Bonnie was taken out of her cell and brought to the visitor''s area of the prison. Her guard ced her on


    a chair in front of Darren. A small table separated the two.


    Before walking out of the door, the guard handcuffed Bonnie''s wrists and ankles. When he was


    finished, he left and stood outside the door.


    “The visit will be thirty minutes, starting now.“

    This was the first andst sentence the prison guard said before closing the door.


    “You look pale.“ Bonnie spoke first since Darren looked even more miserable than she did. In her mind,


    he didn''t have to feel so bad since he hadn''t done anything wrong to her.


    The more she tried tofort Darren, the sadder he seemed to get.


    “Why are you acting like this? Why did you turn yourself in? You should''ve just scolded me instead!


    Shouldn''t you be ming me right now?“ Darren suddenly started asking questions in a resentful voice.


    He was a bit irritated that Bonnie had turned herself in. But deep down, his anger came from the fact


    that he wasn''t able to rescue her at all.


    Bonnie tried her best to hold back her tears. But seeing the man she loved in so much pain was too


    much to handle. As soon as she opened her mouth to speak, she began crying.


    “Because I believe in you. You promised me that you would save me and I know you won''t let me


    down. Even now, I still believe that you''ll get me out of here.“


    Darren was moved by Bonnie''s earnest words. He held her handcuffed hands to show how much he


    loved her. He didn''t let go until it was time for her to leave.


    Nearing the end of the visit, Bonnie couldn''t help herself from asking about the man who was supposed


    to rece her.


    Darren carefully exined in response, “Jacob paid that man to stay hidden. He even hired him in his


    ownpany under an alias. He''s been protecting that man so much that it''s been impossible to find


    him. Nevertheless, I''ll make sure Jacob hands him over so you can finally get you out of here as soon


    as possible.“


    Hearing this, Bonnie nodded with tears running down her cheeks. Heaving a sigh, she said, “Darren, I


    need you to keep this a secret from my family. I can''t let them know that I''ve been sent to prison.


    Especially my mother. She''s very sickly, and if she finds out about this, I''m afraid it will only make her


    condition worse.“


    Darren whole-heartedly understood her concerns and responded with a promise.


    “You don''t have to worry about that. I''ll make sure your family doesn''t hear about any of this. I''ll keep


    them safe too. After all, they''re my family as well, right?“


    The way he spoke was filled with sincerity. Bonnie was overwhelmed by his genuine words. The fact


    that Darren considered her family as his own made her love him even more.


    Thirty minutes passed by in a blink of an eye. Even though Darren didn''t want to, it was time for him to


    leave the love of his life.


    Even if he was the CEO of the KING Group, he had no choice but to follow the prison rules. But before


    leaving, he made another promise. He said that he would visit her soon and that she was going to be


    out of there in just a little while.


    After seeing Bonnie''s beautiful face, Darren felt like he could finally breathe. For the past few days, the


    stress and the amount of work he had done made him feel like he was dying.


    Unfortunately, before he had the chance to walk out of the prison, another problem popped up.


    “Do you see that man over there? He''s the boss of the KING Group, Darren Xu.“ “Is he here to visit his


    girlfriend?“ “Yes, a girl named Bonnie. Girls these days are really stupid enough to sit in prison for


    others.“ “I''ve actually heard that some gold-diggers willingly spend years in prison for their men with


    only a promise that they''ll be paid for it in the future...“


    Two fat men were gossiping about Darren and didn''t seem to care if they were heard. Darren


    happened to notice them on his way out. Before one of the men could finish his sentence, Darren sent


    him flying to the ground with a single punch to the face. The man''s mouth began bleeding profusely


    and two of his teeth fell on the ground along with him.


    Darren''s eyes were blood red from sheer anger. He wanted to kill that fat man with his bare hands that


    instant. He wasn''t going to let anyone speak badly of Bonnie in front of him anymore. “Don''t you dare


    say her name!“ Darren eximed just when he was about to attack again.


    In a sh, a dozen prison guards pulled Darren away before he could get his hands on the fat man.


    While Darren was being taken away, the fat man cried like a child and begged for mercy.


    When Darren was brought into another room, he learned that the fat man was only here to visit a family


    member.


    Darren and Bonnie''s problems had nothing to do with him. He was just a random guy, not even a


    businessman. He was the kind of person who found pleasure in talking badly about other people.


    Darren just couldn''t resist the urge to teach that pig a meaningful, and at the same time, painful, life


    lesson.


    Since hitting someone could be considered as a criminal offense, the prison guard escorted the two of


    them to a nearby police station. Darren sneered while he thought to himself, ''I didn''t get the chance to


    hit you again back at the prison. Now that we''re here, I''ll show you what happens to pigs who talk badly


    of others!''


    Shortly after Darren was sent to the police station, he called Han and asked him to ''bring a gift'' to the


    fat man.


    Within minutes, Han arrived at the police station and bailed Darren out. He also arranged for


    someone to ''entertain'' the fat man.


    It seemed that Darren couldn''t catch a lucky break. Just when he was finally able to breathe a sigh of


    relief, another man had to run his mouth.


    “What did you prepare for that man, Han?“ Darren asked with a fierce and terrifying look on his face.


    Han immediately understood what he meant and replied, “Everything''s settled. Once that fatso is


    released from the police station, someone will be waiting for him outside of his house. You have my


    word that that man will never speak nonsense ever again.“


    After hearing this, the ferocious look on Darren''s face eased a little. He always tried his best to keep his


    composure at all times, but the way that man had talked about Bonnie had made himpletely lose


    it.


    “Have you found anything useful regarding Rip''s whereabouts?“ Darren asked again.


    Han didn''t answer. He didn''t even look at his boss. It was clear that they still didn''t have a way of


    getting Bonnie out of prison.


    With this realization, Darren quickly became sullen. The look on his face easily showed the sorrow he


    felt.


    Han had his reasons for not responding. In his mind, no matter what he said, if it wasn''t information


    about Rip''s exact whereabouts, then it would only be a waste of Darren''s time.


    After a while, Darren''s waspletely ovee with anger. The two of them remained silent for so


    long that when Darren shouted, Han was startled.


    “If we can''t find Rip, and Jacob won''t give in, then we''ll just have to force him! Even if we have to resort


    to extreme measures!“


    Han nodded along and asked, “Where should we start?“


    Darren sneered, “Let''s not waste any more time and start with the one he cares for the most.“


    After a short pause, he added, “At all costs.“ Han was a little hesitant about his boss'' decision but


    kept his thoughts to himself.


    Darren''s eyes were as fierce as a roaring me. At that very moment, he was ready to destroy Jacob''s


    whole life if he needed to.
