Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 901 The End of Their Road 17

The day after the wedding, Emelie and her team boarded a private jet for the 13-hour flight back to Capebatt City.

After the long journey, she didn't even return home to rest. Instead, she went straight from the airport to the police station to file an official report.

The entire process was captured by the media that had been waiting for a long time, and the news quickly spread online.

The news spread, but it didn't create waves. This was because Emelie had already been trending online for at least two days now.

Initially, the netizens were merely enjoying a glimpse of the luxurious aristocratic wedding across borders while learning about the Filo family's influence in Faldoria. They felt proud that the bride was from Cedonia. They admired the extravagant decor and casually left comments under the posts.

"There are so many rich people in this world. What difference does it make if there's one more?"

"Rich people should really build their own internet. Surfing the web just makes my poverty feel more real." Most of them were just there to gossip.

Who would have thought that in less than a day, the focus would seamlessly shift into a legal drama?

Yennifer's full speech at the wedding was published online on foreign platforms and then brought to Cedonia's major social media sites. This set off a storm of trending topics related to Xander Pierce and the Middleton, Davis, Swanson, and Collins families. Keywords such as "silencing", "account book", "revenge", and "retrial" also trended, igniting topic after topic.

Recently, things had been calm and peaceful. Who could have imagined such shocking and unexpected news to suddenly be revealed? It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the incident eventually became a nationwide sensation.

Emelie's return to Cedonia and her police report only added fuel to the already raging fire. The discussion online grew so intense that it was impossible to suppress.

Filing a report didn't mean that the police would immediately open a case. She still had to wait for their feedback. The maximum waiting period was seven days. By the fourth day, Emelie still hadn't received a reply.

She wasn't surprised. Ashley had already told her that this case involved some sensitive issues, and many aspects of it required careful consideration.

On the fifth day, Emelie gave an interview to a reputable media outlet, addressing some of the public's pressing questions in a sit-down format.

One question was straightforward, and they asked if she believed that Xander's case was a wrongful conviction.

This was the tricky part. If it was a wrongful conviction, it wasn't just the Middleton, Davis, Swanson, and Collins families who were at fault. The judiciary involved in handling the case back then would also have to answer for it.

Emelie quickly denied it.

"In legal terms, a retrial doesn't just mean overturning a previous verdict. It also means there's new material and evidence to re-examine the case.
