Obsessive CEO’s Sinful Wife by Lil’ Bamboo
Chapter 209
âWhy not?â Jackson asked in reply.
âI would eventually have to marry someone in my life. Would an early or late marriage make a difference? Besides, Mira is quiet and obedient enough. An arranged marriage with the Hall family would help the Valor familyâs business in the shipping industry, so why not?â
Serenity felt a little unsettled listening to Jacksonâs business mindset.
Jackson spoke as if he had no love at all. Event marriage was just business to him. For a m
a man like him, what was important to
him?
yaw
âBut now, I think Itâd be nice to marry a woman I find interesting,â Jackson added with a smile, his blazing gaze her
focused on
Jacksonâs words seemed to imply something, and Serenity turned away uncomfortably. She told herself not to overthink. Both of them were simply living in two different worlds. They were very different. She thought it would be unlikely for them to cross paths again after giving him the gloves.
âOh, um âSerenity said hurriedly, âIâll give you the gloves.â She tried to walk past him to get the gloves for him.
âThereâs no rush.â Jackson took her by the arm and slowly bent down, leveling t its gaze on her. âHey, Sis. You havenât answered my question. Do you want to reopen the case?â
Of course she would. Why would she not? If she remained guilty as charged, she would bear this crime for the rest of her life. She would not be able to regain her dignity,
Even so. âI want to, so?â She asked in reply.
âIf you really want to overturn the conviction, I can help you,â Jackson proposed.
Serenity was shocked. âDo you really believe me? That I wasnât drunk driving back then?â
âWhether
you were drunk driving or not doesnât matter to me,â Jackson nurtured. âWe have to remove yo
drunk driving charges. I can get the best lawyer to help. The lawyer should be able to overturn it after finding the loopholes in the case.
Gloom replaced the sparkle in her eyes. Serenity understood what he meant. Under the presumption of innocence, every person accused of any crime was considered innocent until proven guilty. If there was reasonable doubt, she would have the chance to overturn the conviction. Even so, that did not mean she had truly proved her true innocence.
The case reversal and the suspectâs innocence would always be controversial.
âWhat do you think, Sis? You donât like it?â Jackson naturally saw the change in her expression.
âI want to find out the truth, I want to know whatâs the cause of the accident. Why did all the witnesses testify that I drank? Whatâs with the evidence? The police did a blond test on me later. Why did it show that I was indeed drunk drivingâ¦â
Her series of questions were the doubts she had held all these years.
If these queries remained unsolved, she would bear the crime forever. Even if she was truly innocent, she would remain at criminal in the hearts of others after overturning the conviction
Jacksonâs face gradually darkened. Coldness seemed to be looming in his dark eyes. âIâll help overturn the conviction for you. Is the truth really that important to you?â
