Chpater 143Chapter 143 The Court Trial
As Colton said, not only her house, but even the court was crowded with people who had come to see
her make a joke of herself.
“Miss Lisa, you’re about to go on trial for the plagiarism case. What do you have to say about that?”
“That’s right, Miss Lisa. Does what you said yesterday mean that you’ve already bribed Daniella to
retract her statement at today’s court hearing?”
novelbinIf Colton hadn’t expected this and hired bodyguards to escort them in, they might be surrounded by
reporters outside.
However, Nicole sighed with emotion. The imagination of these reporters was certainly rich for them to
think about her bribing Daniella. She truly didn’t know what they were thinking.
A smile played on Nicole’s lips, and they only stopped when they reached a safe place. She looked
down from the top and raised her voice as she spoke. “If you have any guesses, you might as well go
in and take a look to see who guessed it right.”
The case was open to the public, so reporters could enter.
When Colton took notice of Nicole’s confident appearance, his eyes flickered slightly.
When he went in, Queenie was already sitting on the side. Seeing that Colton had arrived, she quickly
stood up. She looked happy, and her lips twitched as she stepped forward and uttered softly, “Colton,
you’re here too.”
Colton cast a quick glance at Queenie, but didn’t say anything.Queenie was stubborn, so she didn’t mind it at all and continued, “Colton, Mrs. Gardner and the others
are here too. Do you want to go over?”
When Colton heard that, there was finally a little movement. He turned his head slightly and looked
over. Sure enough, Anna and Wendy were sitting in the corner.
Wendy was involved in this matter after all, so it was only natural for them to be present.
Nicole followed Colton’s gaze and said thoughtfully, “President Gardner, the trial will begin in a
moment. Why don’t you go over there first?”
“All right.” Colton nodded, then stared at Nicole for a while, his eyebrows furrowed. “If anything
unexpected happens, you can ask them to stop at any time.”
“Okay, don’t be such a mom. Nicole will definitely win the case,” Whitney said nonchalantly as she
came up from behind.
Without saying much more, Colton went to Anna’s side.
After watching Colton walk away, the gentle look on Queenie’s face disappeared. She fixed Nicole with
a cold stare, a mocking smile playing on the corners of her lips.
“Nicole, I’d like to see what you’re going to do!”
“Don’t bother. You still have to worry about how you’re going to explain after Daniella loses the case
and sells you out.” Nicole fought back without reservations.
Queenie wasn’t angry, simply treating it as Nicole putting up a last-ditch fight.
She snorted coldly, then walked off with her head held high.Seeing how Queenie was acting, Whitney couldn’t help but lament, “Nicole, your sister seems rather
unkind.”
Nicole chuckled, then said solemnly, “If she were kind, I’m afraid the sun would be rising from the
west.”
When the trial started, Daniella stood opposite her, but Nicole didn’t panic at all.
If Daniella could file a lawsuit, it meant that all the materials had been prepared. Nicole wanted to see
how real these materials were, so much so that it could deceive the judge.
“Miss Nicole Anderson, what do you plead to Ms. Daniella Zimmer’s accusation of you committing
plagiarism and threatening her to withdraw the lawsuit?”
Nicole smiled. There was no panic on her face as she cleared her throat and answered slowly, “I plead
not guilty.”
Daniella frowned upon seeing how righteous she looked. “You copied my work, and even stopped me
at my company to threaten me to withdraw the lawsuit. What’s there to not admit?!”
Nicole smiled, took out her phone, and clicked the play button. In an instant, the voices of two people
could be heard.
This was the complete recording of the conversation they had in the private room.
Daniella’s expression changed. She probably didn’t expect Nicole to have a voice recording. At that
time, after she published the article, Queenie had asked her to be prepared, saying that Nicole would
definitely come and find her, so she should record everything. She didn’t expect that Nicole had thought
of it too!
