NovelEnglishChapter 173 Judge Bruce sighs. "Very well." "The defence calls on Gareth Thomas, the chairman and CEO of Bane Technologies," Kelvin says as Trent steps down from the box, glaring at him before he sits down behind Justin.
A tall lanky man with grey bits, dressed in an obviously expensive black designer suit with round transparent glasses sitting on his nose steps into the courtroom and murmurs fill the air, every eye watching him in awe. Even Judge Bruce looks a bit taken back.
Trent sneers and Carmela taps him, shock and worry evident in her eyes.

Gareth Thomas is not just any werewolf, he is the richest one in all of the country. Even the elites of the elites cannot get a meeting with him and he agrees to testify as a witness in a murder case for people who he has no business with? What kind of testimony does he even have to give? Does it have anything to do with the video Kelvin wanted to the court? There were no buildings around the place where the attack happened, so there can be no CCTV evidence. That was the specific reason he chose that location for the attack to happen.
"Do you Gareth Thomas solemnly swear that the testimony you will give to this court will be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth under the all seeing eye of the goddess?" Kelvin asks.
"You can count on it. Yes I do," Gareth replies and takes his seat.
"About a decade and a half ago, your security company started working on a project called Alpha Recon, am I correct?" Kelvin cocks his head.
"Yes, that's correct," Gareth replies.
"Objection your honour, how is any of this relevant to the case?" Justin cuts in.
"Overruled," Judge Bruce replies dismissively, "you may continue." "Thank you, your honour," Kelvin nods at judge Bruce before he turns to Gareth. "Can you tell this honourable court why you started Alpha Recon and what it is? You don't have to get into the details." "Well at the time, Rogues were running rampant and causing havoc on the border roads, especially the ones hidden in thickets, so my company started an individual project to help packs combat this problem with a look to make profit off it in the future. Alpha Recon is basically high definition, far zoom cameras, set on high masts to monitor the roads so before the rogues attack, our security system attached to the cameras would immediately inform the pack of their movements." "Awesome," Kelvin replies, holding up the flash drive. "I have here withone of the videos from your Alpha Recon project along the Dynamite alley, taken about fifteen years ago. I personally cto you to get this, is that correct?" Trent shifts uncomfortably in his seat, his eyes darting nervously across the courtroom, a feeling of trepidation seizing his heart.

"Remember you are under oath to tell the truth Mister Gareth, because now I will ask you if you can attest to the fact that the video in this drive is real and not doctored. Bear in mind that if you lie, the consequences will be disastrous for you and your company." "It is real and the court can grant an order to check our servers themselves." "So you are absolutely sure that there is no way this video can be fake and you are willing to stake your reputation and that of your company to back this fact?" "Absolutely." "Your honour, you heard the man, I'd like for my evidence to be admitted." The judge nods at his clerk who steps forward and takes the drive from Kelvin, connecting it to the system and he projects it for everyone to see.
In the video, Liana is struck down by a rogue and it shows how Henrym comes to her before another rogue attacks him and they disappear into the blindspot of the camera. "Your honour," Kelvin says while the
video is still playing, "if you skip that video forward by one whole hour, my client doesn't move an inch because of the wolfsbane poison in the dagger she was stabbed with el. no |
would like to know exactly why Beta Trent, under oath, lied to this court that he saw her go after her husband En with a gun?"
