Chapter 992

Investigating Vanda’s death proved challenging.

Despite digging up the area where the glass vials were buried in the backyard of the Nicholls residence, no similar poison was found.

Moreover, Romello remained tight–lipped about the matter.

He struggled and attempted to salvage the situation but to no avail. In the end, he had completely given up resistance, seeking death as his only solace.

Elliot solidified the case against him for matricide due to his imprisonment and hypnotism of Vanda.

As Individuals under hypnosis could not act independently and were subject to the hypnotist’s commands, Romello could not escape culpability whether Vanda administered the poison voluntarily or Romello deliberately murdered her.

Once all the evidence was compiled and organized by Lionel, it was handed over as commanded.

The sentencing was expected to take at least a week.

During this period, Romello was stripped of his position as deputy chief of the National Investigation Bureau. He was also ousted from his position as CEO of the Nicholls Group by a vote from the board of directors.

The position of the Nicholls family’s leader remained vacant, leading to a power struggle among the Nicholls family heirs who rushed back from nearby cities and abroad.
