I'm a Good Stepmom
CHAPTRE 31
The judge then continued the question again. He turned around and looked at Henric who was still silent with a straight look without any aura of life.
".....Suspect, young Mr. Henric. What is the statement that you are accusing of is the truth? " Ask the Chief Judge.
"......." Henric did not reply, he was silent like a soulless body. His empty eyes continued to stare straight and those lips did not budge in the slightest.
Berick who was watching from above he muttered.
" Answer brother!! don't shut up like that. " Berick muttered to see Henric who was silent did not speak.
The judge asked again.
" Is the alleged statement true, suspect? please in jawan. " The judge asked.
But the question was not answered, Henric kept silent.
" It seems like he's been very stressed. Even an answer like that is not answered. " Edward muttered, looking over his throne.
" ...We don't treat him badly. Just keep him in jail. " Amon spoke up.
" Alright, apparently, the suspect won't give his statement. " The judge continued.
The judge looked back at Gulie, and he began to ask again.
" When did the abuse happen? and how many times has it been? " Ask the Chief Judge.
" Gullie....
| I have to answer how much and when. I'm just gonna make it up. | Thought Gulie.
" Gulie was harassed 3 times, and it happened on the 2nd, 8th, and 19th. " The woman replied, she just made up the date.
The judge slightly frowned, he opened his notebook. The judge was seen reading his notes.
" ....Don't you remember wrongly? " Ask the Chief Justice.
" ..Wh-why? " Tanya Gulie was getting nervous.
" No, I just want to make sure. " Say the Supreme Court.
" Sister, the 8th, 2nd and 19th. Isn't Henric always at home? " Ask Berick.
" You're right, Henric didn't leave the house on that date, he was just going to go to that tavern on the 3rd, 5th, 7th, 13th, and 25th. Aside from that date he never went off the ass. Because that date is the date on which he should practice the sword." Arnold mutters.
| Where is the woman, the trial is already underway, if I become the head of the family I can get Henric out and not have to rely on him.| Thought Arnold.
Arnold's hand clenched the handle of the chair firmly, he was annoyed that Violet had still not appeared.
" The woman is lying!! " Jack suddenly shouted, he stared at Gulie with a roaring look.
Everyone in the hall, they looked at Jack, Edward glanced at Jack.
" Please calm down. " Amon is calming.
" I told you he lied!! " Jack kept shouting.
" If you keep talking, I'll get you out!! " Edward rebukes Jack.
" Your Majesty, he's lying!! that girl is lying!! " Jack is still clinging.
" You have no right to speak, so shut up!! " Edward once again rebuked.
" Jack, patience. If you keep yelling, you'll be kicked out. " Arnold.
With a disgruntled look, Jack shut up and sat back down.
| The woman must be taught a lesson, she did not come at all. | Thought Jack.
In the middle of the trial, and the commotion that had been made by Jack, suddenly the palace guards shouted to report the presence of someone.
" Marcioness Violet has arrived!! " I cried the guard.
When he heard the name, everyone turned around and gazed towards the entrance of the room.
They want to see Violet.
Women in plain white clothes, red hair and green eyes. The woman walked gracefully, she looked straight at Edward.
" .....That witch? " Berick looked at Violet with a surprised look, he thought Violet would not come.
" ...She coming?! " Jack went wide, he didn't expect that Violet would come.
" Huh! thank goodness he came. " Arnold was relieved.
" Is she the woman who is called the rich young widow of the king? " Lords gossip to each other.
" Marcioness Violet facing. " Violet greets Edward.
"....." Edwad.
" I'm sorry, I'm late. " Say Violet.
" It's okay, you can sit in your chair. " Said Edward.
| I think he won't come, why should you come. | Thought Edward.
Violet turned around and she looked at Henric with an anxious face. Violet thought how her son could look like that, she seemed to lose her soul.
| What he's really going through. Why is he this bad? | Violet wonders.
" Because you have come, the trial will continue. " The judge confirmed.
Violet then gave some papers to the judge.
" What is this? " Ask the judge.
" My son is innocent, she just made up. " Violet spoke in a cold voice.
" How can you say that Gulie lied, you are as universal as your son. " Gulie's starting to lose her innocence.
Violet looked at the sculpting Henric, then she walked towards him.
" Henric?....." Violet whispered in Henric's ear in a soft voice.
Henric did not respond, he was just dumb.
| Looks like, he's been mentally hit. | Thought Violet.
" I'm not going to defend the wrong, so there's no lie. " Violet answered Gulie's question.
The chief judge stopped the trial, and he spoke to Violet.
" Do you have any other evidence. " The judge asked Violet.
" heh!! I don't want to do this, but because it's already gone....
" I'll do it.
Violet muttered, I don't know what she wanted to do.
" Gavino, out!! " Violet shouted, she called out the name of her best friend.
The green light began to appear after Violet called out the name of her best friend.
The light gradually peaked, and slowly displayed a person in a typical witch outfit.
