Vi roared at the end. She was so loud that Mnie looked up at her<b>. </b>


    Vi noticed Mnie’s stare. No one knew what was going through Vi’s mind when she staggered. as she tried to stand. She headed toward Mnte.


    “Do you feel happy now? Are you proud of yourself?” Vi stared at Mnie intensely and hatefully.


    “What right do you have to think that you’re better than <b>me</b>, Mnie? You’re cheaper and dirtier. than anyone in this world. Why bother with all that pretense? What’s so great about sitting on your high horse?”


    Vi questioned her with clenched teeth.


    Mnie looked at her without any show of emotion. She did <b>not </b>even blink.


    Vi hated it when Mnie looked at her <b>that </b>way. She shouted shrilly, “Answer me, Mnie Smith! Answer me! Stop giving me that disgusting look!”


    “Vi,” Mnie finally spoke. However, her expression was still stoic. She sounded <b>cold </b>as she lowered her eyes to talk to Vi, “Are you still insisting that you have nothing to be guilty <b>about</b>?”


    This made Vi stop. Her shoulders quivered. Before <b>she </b>could say anything, she saw a figuree up to her from the spectator seating.


    Eugene looked tall and foreboding. He approached them with a calm look on his face.


    Vi’s face lit up as she called out to him<b>, </b>“Eugene…”


    Mnie looked up at Eugene before turning to look at Vi. She <b>said </b>lightly<b>, </b>“The verdict is out.”


    <b>She </b>was reminding Eugene that everything had been set in stone. There was nothing he could do for


    Vi now.


    Vi looked at him hopefully, but Eugene was staring at Mnie. There was <b>a </b>soft look in his eyes <b>as </b>he asked Mnie in a low voice, “Where did you get the idea to have George Chapman as a witness?”


    Mnie was taken aback. “Miss Henson was the one who thought of it.”


    Zara was still around, and she began chatting with Eugene.

    Yvonne and the others came over to Mnie as well. Yvonne ran straight to Mnie to hug her. ” Congrattions, Mel! I knew you’d win!”


    She threw a delightful nce at Vi after saying <b>that</b><b>. </b>“I remember someone acting all high and mighty before this.”


    Vi bit her lip and looked at Eugene, but he did not even look at her.


    She was infuriated as she clenched the corner of her shirt. Vi immediately lunged toward Mnie.


    However, the moment she stepped forward, all Vi saw was ck.


    Vi was right next to Yvonne when it happened. Yvonne was scared by her and jumped to the side. ” What the hell?! Is she going to pin this on me?”


    There were still people around in the courthouse, and they quickly came over to help Vi.


    Yvonne and Reny <b>joined </b>the crowd to watch them rescue Vi, but Mnie was not interested at all.


    She went to Zara instead. “Thank you, Miss Henson.<b>” </b>


    Zara paused in her conversation with Eugene and looked at Mnie. She looked between Mnie and Eugene thoughtfully and said, “It’s my job.


    “Besides, someone asked me for help on this, and it’s only right for me to do my best.” A rare smile. appeared on Zara’s usually stoic face.
