Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom
Chapter 204

204 The fifth case

Rose City's Bo family... 1

Youan was seen entering the family house of the Bo Manor. However, the minute she stepped into the sitting room, a loud and angry voice stopped her in her spot.

"What are you doing here again?! Didn't I tell you that I don't ever want to see you in my Bo family's home anymore?! Turn back and return to your house this instant!!" Youan's smile froze and her lips slowly turned downwards. Madam Bo used to love her the most when she was still a Celebrity but now, she detests her like one would hate their enemy.

Ever since that incident with that stranger at the mall, different media houses published the incident. When things were heating up on the internet, different celebrities- those she knows and those she doesn't know, came out to testify against her. They called her a bully who should never be a public figure.

Bullying is a controversial topic and no one likes it. So the moment short clips of her bullying people started to surface on the internet, including the old videos that were once taken down, those who were traumatized by bullies in the past all came out to release their frustration on her. Water armies from nowhere blew the matter out of proportion and a petition to boycott her was launched. It affected the Company and the management canceled her. Ever since, no other Agency agreed to sign a contract with her.

At first, after her career was ruined, Madam Bo welcomed her with open hands but a few weeks later, she started to change. She knew the reason why. It was because Master Bo was running for office and, she was helpful as a celebrity that helped promote the family and sold the Bo family to the public and good people.

Because of her, Master Bo got lots of followers but after she became useless, the family sidelined her. Only her fiance still treated her nicely and for him, she was willing to dive into the family even though nobody likes her anymore.

"Mother," Youan called.

"Servants! Throw this unfortunate witch out of this house!"

As the servants were approaching, Youan panicked and started to scream hysterically: "Ma, please, don't do this! Ma, hear me out! Madam Bo...!"

The servants threw her out and closed the door. Youan broke down outside the door and started to cry. She regretted that day at the mall. If she could relive the past, she would have stayed in her house on that day and not gone anywhere.

After a long time passed, she got up and headed to her car. Her intention was to go to her fiance's house and wait for him there. When he returns, she would try to see if she could get pregnant this time. In a situation like this, only pregnancy can help her, If she's pregnant, the family would be forced to accept her if they still want the Master to continue running for office.

She entered her car and drove to her fiance's home. On entering the room, she heard some weird volces coming from the bedroom, so she ran in, only to be met with a heart-shattering scene of her fiance and her best friend riding on cloud nine in a feist manner.

"Ahhhh!" She screamed in rage, grabbed whatever her hand could touch, and flung it to them on the bed.

The two were too shocked when the scream came, so they didn't react in time and the object Youan threw landed on her fiance's head.

"Hmmm!" She groaned in pain before he fell on the lady he was on and passed out.

Seeing the blood pumping out of the side of his head, Youan froze.

"Ahhhhhh!" Youan's friend screamed in horror at the sight of the blood.

Youan regained her senses. However, instead of helping her fiance to the hospital, she turned and ran out in fright, leaving her best friend to handle the matter. She didn't even wait to know if he died or

not.

Getting into her car, she started the engine with shaking hands and zoomed out at full speed.

Meanwhile, in court...

Lawyer An and another lawyer had presented their arguments and were waiting for the judge to pass his judgment.

This was the fifth case he was handling in a year, starting with Chairman Lee's case. And he had made! a vow to himself that after this, if he lost again, he'd quit being a lawyer to take a break for some years. His ego wouldn't allow him to keep getting humiliated in court. This particular case wasn't difficult to handle. It was a case of a cheating husband. The wife who caught her husband cheating and wanted a divorce, came to him when the husband was adamant about divorcing her because he didn't want to share his property in half.

Before Lawyer An took the case, he made sure there was enough evidence to prove the man guilty. So, he was a thousand percent sure that he would win this case.

Honestly, to Lawyer An, this case was a waste of time for him. It wasn't challenging at all. Even the lawyers under him wouldn't care to handle minor cases like this but because he wanted to break whatever 'spell' was making him lose repeatedly after Chairman Lee's case, he decided to start from square one. Reason he made the vow.

Waiting with rapt attention with his breath hitched in his throat to hear the verdict, the Judge began:

"On September 19, 20XX, Mrs. Rhoda Ren filed an adultery case against her husband, Mr. Louis Ren. The Court finds that there has been service of summons as provided by law, that Mr. Louis Ren and Mrs Rhoda Ren appeared personally at the hearing, and both parties were not represented by counsel.

The Court also finds that Mrs. Rhoda Ren has been a resident of Rose City for 10 years and prior to the filing of the complaint, she had no criminal records and had been a law abiding citizen and the Court has full jurisdiction to determine this case which both parties must abide by..."
