The Law of Attraction

Chapter 527: Her Grim Reapers

Bill, who saw Kyle standing near Lana and Liam was so happy that his face lit up with a big smile. He was confident that he would be saved from imprisonment now.

Kyle looked at Bill with complex emotions and took his designated seat before Liam stood up to present the case in front of the judge.

"Your Honour, the accused is a very prominent personality and was also a candidate for the post of President in the recent elections. The case had been fast-tracked because his lawyer accused the prosecution of arresting him to hold him back from becoming the President.

They claim that he is innocent. But I hereby contest that claim because he was actively involved in various counts of illegal activities and was also involved in the kidnapping and murder of some businessmen."

Liam stated and continued, "There are a few witnesses who were kidnapped and asked for huge ransom by his hired hunch men. I request Your Honour to grant me permission to call them..."

"Please proceed." The judge gave him permission and Liam immediately presented the three prominent businessmen. They testified one after the other against Bill Grey saying that his men kidnapped them and released them after they were given a high amount of money as ransom.

"The defendant may cross-question the witnesses!" Liam looked at Kyle as the judge gave him the opportunity to ask questions to the witnesses.

Kyle looked at the witnesses and asked them, "Did you see Mr. Bill Grey with your own eyes when you were kidnapped or during your time with those people?

Did he himself call you or threaten you to pay the money? What proof do you have to prove his involvement in your kidnapping?"

The witnesses were all left speechless and shook their heads in denial because they knew it was him but didn't get to see him with their eyes nor did he contact them personally.

"Your Honour, this proves my client is not involved in this conspiracy. Neither do they have any proofs and nor can they be relied on in this context as they might have been bribed and planted by the other party for maligning my client's name?" Kyle stressed and the judge nodded and took a note of it all.

Liam stood up and looked at Kyle with raised eyebrows and said, "My next witness is Ms. Lana Huang, the woman who was kidnapped and whose mother was killed by the fiance of Mr. Bill Grey, Ms. Grace Go."

Lana took a deep breath and went to stand in the witness box. As Liam asked her a few questions she answered them all honestly and as she recalled that terrifying day, tears ran down her eyes.

She reiterated every detail of her mother's kidnapping including the call she got asking for ransom and about how Martin Smith tried to kill Liam but instead ended up killing her mother.

She said that everything done was with the help of Bill Grey and also that he was also involved in this as his fiance Gracy who was the mastermind of everything.

Kyle didn't stand up to ask any questions to Lana but he was filled with complex emotions and knew that today he was going to hurt a lot of people. He didn't really care about most of them except for a few people whom he genuinely wanted in his life and Lana was one of them.

He believed his father when he vowed to him that he was not aware of Gracy's plan for Mrs. Huang. He checked everything and everything pointed towards Gracy including the men involved.

So without hesitation, he decided to blame it on Gracy and make her the target because she was the one holding a grudge against Lana. He himself almost became a puppet in her revenge due to her brainwashing and manipulation.

He stood up and pointed towards Gracy and said, "She is the real culprit behind this plan and murder, Your Honour. My client is completely unaware of her plans. Gracy Go had already been proven guilty of committing this crime and my client is unfairly being blamed in this matter.

He was honey-trapped by this woman so that he would let her order his men around. She was also given money to splurge on shopping but she used it to hire henchmen to kidnap and kill people."

Gracy was shocked when she heard all this and she snapped out of daze as she looked at him in disbelief. She didn't know when Kyle started hating her so much that he even framed her to save his father from all the blame.

Or was the man stupid enough to believe all the lies of his father? She was aware of how Kyle longed for his father's love. Kyle trusted her enough for him to share his life as Bill Grey's bastard son with her.

She thought that the heavens favoured her when she met Bill Grey one time she went to Kyle's apartment to fetch something she had left behind and coincidentally Bill was also there to visit Kyle. The old man fell in love with her at first sight and she took advantage of it.

But now what just happened to her? The people who she thought were a blessing in disguise turned out to be her grim reapers who wanted her to be buried alive in hell!!!

She stood up and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Kyle, why are you betraying me like this? What harm did I do to you? Your Honour, Bill Grey is not innocent. He was the one who got all those businessmen kidnapped to collect money and use it during the elections.

The people I used were all his personal henchmen. I didn't hire anyone from anywhere. He is a ruthless killer and extortionist, don't spare him… don't spare him...."

It was true that she was the one who mobilized everything with Bill's authorization but Bill was definitely aware of the plan!

The policemen caught Gracy and didn't allow her to speak further. She sat down crying over her misfortune as her hatred for Lana grew by leaps and bounds when she saw how Liam was comforting Lana but was being so indifferent to her.
