"Such a jerk!" "Scumbag!" Echoes of anger rose from the audience.
Roberto paid no attention to the people from less privileged backgrounds. Their insults didn't faze him in the slightest. He turned his focus back to Thiago and retorted sharply, "Your mother brought her downfall upon herself. Why did she hold onto the Moreno Group's shares so desperately? If she hadn't been so greedy, would I have done what I did? And you, you brat, I am your father, how dare you treatlike this? I will kill you when I am out of here!" His menacing words led the judge to strike the gavel, exclaiming. "Mind your words!" The security personnel also intervened, saying to Roberto, "Shut up." Roberto threw a scornful look at the judge and acted as if the guards weren't even there. He kept his attention locked on Thiago, his voice rising with fury. "Listen to me. Plenty have cat me, thinking they could bringdown, and every last one of them failed. You really believe you can pull it off with your schemes and the people you've gathered?" His tone was defiant.

You're placing all your hopes on the Vargas family, but maybe no one has told you yet- the Deputy Mayor has already been removed from office.

Caught off guard, Roberto stared at Thiago, his voice incredulous. "You know about Mr. Sandoval?" After a moment's reflection, he vehemently denied the possibility. "Impossible! You're just trying to intimidate me, you little brat. It seems you weren't disciplined enough when you were a child. I should have beaten you more." 0.0% 17:18 Chapter 154 Guilty Brenna observed Thiago's hands quiver slightly. Despite his outward confidence, he was visibly nervous. She gently took the pile of documents from Thiago's hands, located the notice about Ewing Sandoval's suspension, and approached Roberto to show him that.

Roberto stared at the notice for an extended period, his complexion grow paler as he whispered repeatedly, "Impossible..." With composure, Brenna said, "Over the past seven years, Thiago has been collecting evidence to seek justice for his mother. He didn't overlook those who protected you, either. He has also amassed evidence against Ewing's crimes. Mr. Moreno, the law won't let you slip through its grasp this time." Roberto's complexion turned ghostly white, and he slumped back into his chair.
At that instant, Harlan and Jovie, positioned at the adjacent defendant stands, were similarly taken aback. They were well aware that Ewing was the Moreno family's protector.
It was evident to them that the Moreno family was facing disaster now that Ewing had been brought down. Thiago moved to the plaintiff's stand with deliberate steps, marking the official start of the trial.
