To Be Yours Again by Taylor

Chapter 1224 Help Him When the Time Comes

The incident put Eric in a horrible light, so his trial soon came. Jenny didn't go to court for his hearing, but she did see some news about it from the media.

Eric thought he still had a chance to escape, so he continued to deny his guilt in court until the prosecution presented the data of the people who died under his hands. With that, he was utterly silenced.

When he was still contemplating who the traitor could be, Pete appeared in court as a witness, and everything became clear to him instantly. Pete testified that he saw Eric kill those people with his own eyes, and he also revealed many of Eric's other illegal activities.
