Chapter 1155

Axel said, "When the time comes, you won't be Jerkface Justin

anymore. You'll turn into Crybaby Justin."

Justin could feel his blood pressure surge. He pressed his lips

together tightly and softly said, "Although you're Bella's elder brother, she has a husband now. You should know how to be discreet at your age."

Axel almost choked when he heard this and glared at Justin while patting his chest.

"If Drew hears you say that, you'll be in big trouble," Axel warned.

"It won't happen," Justin replied coolly. "He wouldn't want to see his, sister become a widow.

Axel was lost for words.

On the other hand, Ralph was busy with Shannon's case. It was no small matter. Not only was she involved in drugs, but there were als multiple lives at stake. Unless she was convicted and justice was served for the lost souls, Ralph would have trouble sleeping and eating.

After dinner, they gathered in the living room for a chat. Suddenly, Ralph's phone rang. It was his colleagues from the station calling. When he hung up, his expression turned visibly grim.

"Ralph, what happened?" Bella asked with concern in her eyes.

Ralph looked at Justin with a complex expression. "Mr. Salvador, your

father has hired the best lawyer in Savrow to represent Shannon. He's currently at the police station, requesting bail for her."

"Damn it! He thinks he can just bail her out whenever he wants? Does he think the police station is his playground?"

lan couldn't contain his anger. "Some lawyers have completely lost their conscience. They would take on any case! They talk about equality before the law, but I believe they're just slaves to money, the scum of humanity!"

"The best lawyer in Savrow?"

Justin and Bella exchanged knowing glances.

"You mean Hunter Lovett?"

Ralph was surprised. "You know him?"

Bella sneered, "We go way back."

Justin frowned. "Yeah, he's basically the Salvador family's lackey."

Hunter was ruthless and cunning, not someone to be messed wit

"Right now, we need to figure out if Shannon is really guilty as soon as possible. If it turns out she's only involved in drug abuse, and with

the Salvador family's connections and Hunter's legal expertise, there

might be a chance for her to get bail.'

AxelHooked serious as he spoke to Justin. "Mr. Salvador, I've gone through your mother's case files. It's been two decades, and some evidence is missing. If you're thinking of accusing Shannon of deliberate murder, the odds of success are low."

Bella's eyes widened in astonishment as she stared at Justin's cold and stern profile. Justin even sought Axel out. He truly did everything in his power to seek justice for his mother.

"Furthermore, in Linny's case, it was Winston who committed the murder, with Shannon as the instigator and an accomplice. But if Hunter helps her prove her innocence and puts all the blame on Winston, she might only be sentenced to about ten years, not facing the death penalty." Axel spoke calmly before adding another harsh truth.

The atmosphere instantly felt heavy, making it hard for everyone to breathe.

Bella asked anxiously. "Axel, we have the recording of Linny's chat with Shannon and Bethany. Can't that be used to prove Shannon's guilt?"

Axel shook his head. "That was clearly obtained illegally and can't be used as admissible evidence in court."

Bella slumped against Justin, feeling a mix of despair and frustratio like she hadn't in a long time.

Justin put his arms around her, holding her shoulders firmly but gently. "I get it. Even if I find the person who helped Shannon plot against my mother years ago, all I have is testimonial evidence. But what if I told you, I have physical evidence?"
