Shaun smiled. "Even if I didn''t call Thomas in for the second trial, the oue would be the same. Even if the judge felt that I was in the wrong, she would still have to dere that I won in order to bring positive influence to society."


    "You''re amazing." Stevens nodded. He took the gamble and epted the loss. "I hope there''ll be a chance to go against you again in the future."


    Then, he turned to leave, no longer caring about Sarah.


    Sarah also tried to sneak away, but Shaun noticed her. "Return the money to me within three days, or I''ll have to ask the police to enforce thew. By the way, move out of the seaside vi immediately. I''ll collect the house before dark." 1


    "Shaun Hill, don''t go too far." Sarah wanted to kill him with her eyes.


    "You''ve upied a ce that doesn''t belong to you for long enough. It''s time for you to get out." After that, Shaun walked straight towards Catherine.


    The trial made him feel even more guilty towards Catherine.


    Catherine stood up slowly and was forcefully wrapped into his arms before she could speak.


    "Cathy, I''m sorry." Shaun apologized with chagrin. "I was too stupid before. I now understand that you were right not to forgive me."


    "Then... Should I take back my words of forgiveness?" Catherine raised her brows provocatively.


    Frightened, Shaun hurriedly said, "I made that up."


    Catherine burst outughing. "Forget it. Some things can be more unpleasant the more you think about it."


    "Yes." Freya also butted in "Any woman would die from anger if she found out that her love nest with her husband was given to a mistress. Do you know Cathy specially moved to the seaside vi to apany you when your illness rpsed? You two basically pledged your love there."


    Shaun''s face flushed red. "I didn''t know. I don''t remember..."


    "Enough, Freya. There''s no point in talking about that." Catherine dissuaded her.


    Freya huffed. "You sure are tolerant."


    Catherine was exasperated. "I''d have gotten a cerebral hemorrhage out of anger if I weren''t."


    "Cathy, don''t worry. When I get the vi back, I''ll get someone to burn it down." Shaun said immediately," Let''s build a new one." i


    "No need. I don''t ever want to see that piece ofnd again. Just sell it." Catherine changed the subject. "


    You fought thiswsuit quite beautifully." "I only did well because you''re here." Shaun ttered her carefully. Then, he saw Rodney walking to the door in a daze.


    He caught up and patted Rodney on the shoulder." You were discharged?"


    "Yeah." Rodney was still at a loss, and even his eyes were red. "Shaun, was Thomas telling the truth?"


    Freya''s gloomy voice rang out. "Oh my, it looks like a certain someone still can''t ept this reality. Cathay, don''t you think he''s a fool?" 2
