Chapter 430 Final Verdict

Emily sat quietly in the courtroom, waiting.

She had arrived early to secure a seat in the front row and to get a feel for the atmosphere.

Wearing a black hat, her face was mostly hidden from those around her.

Despite this, one person recognized her-Archibald.

He didn't approach her, though. Instead, he sat in the back corner, silently watching her.

Archibald had come to meet a friend who was the presiding judge, but seeing Emily here piqued his curiosity. He wondered what she was up to, dressed like that.

Soon, the court session began.

Leo, Alice, and Bryan entered, taking seats either beside or behind Emily.

Leo, of course, sat next to her, eager to project the image that Emily was still part of the Ward family. This was also a reminder to Emily of her ties to the family.

Leo's only son, Roger, was facing sentencing, and Leo hoped for the lightest possible sentence.

Emily, having lived with the Smith family for years, had developed a keen sense of awareness. She saw through Leo's intentions.

So, when Leo tried to engage her, she remained cold and distant, just as she did with Alice.

Bryan, sitting a row behind, noticed this interaction. His expression was unreadable.
