Chapter 1020 Your Honor, We Object
'Boom!'
The announcement came like a bolt of thunder! The color drained from Linda's face and left her in
shock!
How could this be?!
How could the death sentence be given so quickly?!
Murder offenses could be sentenced to life imprisonment or even ten years imprisonment. Why is my
father given the death sentence? She refused to submit to such absurdity!
However, Rose had already broken her silence before Linda could say anything. "Your Honor, we
object."
The law is fair and just. An objection could be raised for further resolution, and even the defendant had
the right to appeal to the court. Hence, when Rose raised her objection in court, no one criticized her.
Everyone in the courtroom focused on Rose, who stood up slowly from her seat.
"What is your objection?" The judge asked calmly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRose hurriedly explained to the judge, "This has nothing to do with my husband. I'm the one behind this
murder."
Everyone was stunned.
Are these two fighting to take the blame?
Everyone was surprised by this sudden confession but felt that it was normal. Maybe the married
couple had a deep affection for one another or discussed it beforehand. Nevertheless, the woman
should go in while the man takes on important businesses without being locked inside the four walls.
Linda initially thought there was still hope, but she didn't expect her mother to plead guilty in place of
her father.
Her face turned paler than before, and her tears were flowing uncontrollably.
From where Elisa was sitting, although she couldn't see Linda's tears, she could see Linda's anxious
and miserable expression.
She sneered at the sight. What was the point of crying over spilled milk? She knew that Norman's
family would find ways to reduce the sentence. They would rather be given life imprisonment rather
than a death sentence for a chance to make a comeback.
Anyhow, she wasn't worried at all. Whether it was a life imprisonment or a ten-year imprisonment, she
won't be out soon. Brandon had given her the most helpful trump card.
She didn't want them to be defeated so easily as her revenge would lose meaning. She would feel
satisfied only when she had witnessed them in actual agony!
Linda kept shaking her head, but she couldn't utter one word. What could she have done in this
situation?
Rose glanced at Linda and gave her a warm smile. As she lifted her hands to caress her daughter's
face, she wiped off the tear that rolled down her cheek.
And slowly, she mouthed her words, "I'm sorry."
In an instant, Linda burst into tears!
Mom…
That was her mom…
Did this mean that her mom would die? Would her mom be sentenced to death?!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRight then, she felt her heart torn into a million pieces but didn't know what to do. Why? Why did this
happen? Everything was fine. She was a profoundly respected young lady from an affluent family, her
mother was fawned over by the socialites, and her father was also exceptionally well-known. But now,
they were caught in this mess…
Argh!!!
She could not accept this!!
She didn't want her mother to die…!
While Linda was preoccupied with her anxious thoughts, Rose explained to the judge, "This has
nothing to do with my husband. I was the one who prepared the food for my brother-in-law when we
were all living under the same roof. However, I would like to clarify two points for this case."
The judge nodded his head, signaling her to continue.
Linda was able to calm her restless heart momentarily as she noticed the steady composure of her
mother, who was even ready to make two clarifications… Does this mean that the sentence could be
reduced?
