True Love Waits

Chapter 1311 Jealousy Was In The Air

Later, to Phoebe's surprise, Erica announced in public that she had even stolen other people's paintings as well. Before Phoebe could deny the accusation, however, a girl was brought to the court to testify. When questioned, the girl showed enough evidence to prove that Phoebe had indeed stolen her works.

As the morning passed, the session was finally coming to an end. Someone might have helped Erica in secret, and the case was rather simple, so the court had no trouble to give its verdict on the spot. For infringing Matthew Huo's portraiture right, Phoebe had to compensate him with ten million dollars. As for the art theft, she had to compensate the girl and do a public apology.

The ten million compensation shall be paid within a month. If she couldn't do it, she would have to face jail time for the next five years.

By the time Erica walked out of the court, the reporters who had been surrounding the place were already gone. She didn't understand why but didn't think much about it either. Meanwhile, not far away from the courthouse, a man was waiting in his yellow supercar when he saw a group of people coming out. Quickly, he got out of his vehicle and called, "Erica!"

Erica, who was talking to Kelvin, heard someone calling her name. Following the sound of his voice, she soon found Watkins waving at her.

With a bright smile, she immediately walked towards him. "Watkins, you're here!"

"Yes. I came as soon as my class was over. How's it going?" Watkins' smile reached his eyes when he spoke.

"Thanks to Mr. Fei, the case went smoothly, and Phoebe has already gotten her sentence." Erica didn't expect that everything would go on so well.

Hearing this, Watkins was also surprised. "So soon?"

It seemed that someone was helping Erica behind her back. Needless to ask, he knew exactly who that person was.

"Yes! It was all easily solved!" Erica grinned.

Knowing what was going on, Watkins changed the subject. "It's time for lunch. Let's go and celebrate your victory. It's my treat!"

responded, "I'm sorry, Mr. Chai, but Mr. Huo has told me in advance that Mrs. Huo's health is the most important thing now. So he asked me to take her back as soon as the court session was over. Maybe it will be for the best if you don't
