Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1219 A complicated look washed over Rodneyâs face. Shaun used to be his best buddy, but Rodney had to take Sarahâs side at this point. âShaunâ¦â
âUnfortunately, youâre the most disgusting person to me now.â Shaun ignored Rodney and answered Sarah.
âDude, itâs disappointing to hear you say such a thing.â Rodney said furiously, âEven if you guys canât be a couple, you donât have to treat her as an enemy.â
âRodney, you dumped your child and family for the sake of this woman. Are you happy with your life?â
Shaun asked indifferently.
His words made Rodney choke. During these days, he could sense the Snow familyâs unwillingness to keep any ties with him. Sometimes, he did regret it. However, now that he had reached this point, he had no alternative but to take responsibility for Sarah since he pursued her. âI donât regret it.â
âThanks, Rodney. â Sarah was so touched that her eyes reddened.
The scene filled Shaun with utter disgust. He hated himself for having loved this kind of woman.
âAttorney Hill, Iâve heard so much about you. Although youâre quite famous in Australia, you might not be able to defeat me.â Stevens suddenly grinned. âIf I were you, Iâd think about settling it out of court.â
Shaun darted a stony glance at him. âDefeating me is a pie in the sky. Unless you can hold on until the next trial, I donât think youâre capable.â
With that, he shoved his hands into the pockets of his pants and walked directly into the court.
Seeing his arrogant look, Stevens flew into a fury. â Shaun, Iâll make you suffer a disastrous defeat.â
Shortly after, the trial began.
Shaun was the plaintiff as well as his own attorney, which was a rare occurrence.
After the judge made an opening statement of the case, Stevens stood up and said, âI donât think the defendant needs to return the money to the plaintiff. The defendant has known Shaun Hill since she was eight. When she was 18, she got into a relationship with him. As everyone knows, Shaun used to suffer from mental illness, but the defendant had never looked down on him. She even studied psychology for the sake of him. She was the one who cured Shaunâs illness, yet Mr. Hill has never paid her any medical fees.â
âOn top of that, Mr. Hill proposed to Sarah Neeson ten years ago, but he has yet to fulfill his promises. I seriously doubt if Shaun is playing with Sarahâs feelings and wasting her youth.â
âSecondly, when Mr. Hill gave 100 billion dollars to Sarah previously, it is written in black and white that the money was offered to her. According to the laws in Australia, once you transfer your money to someone else, you canât ask for it back. Well, everyone might think that itâs a huge amount, but why was Shaun willing to give it to Sarah? It shows that he, too, felt that he owed Sarah then.â
After Stevens finished speaking, the jury looked at Shaun contemptuously. Furthermore, the judge tonight was a female, and she hated sc*mmy men the most.
Shaun rose to his feet. âLaws are rigid, but humans are flexible. When I got into a relationship with the defendant at a young age, I thought she was a kind girl. Since we got together, Sarah has received gifts worth 6.230 billion dollars from me. Here are the receipts from when I was 18 until several months ago when we broke up. This is not including the 1oo billion dollars I gave her.â
Sarahâs expression changed.
She probably did not expect Shaun to print out all the receipts from more than ten years ago.
Stevens mocked, âAttorney Hill, what a penny pincher you are. Iâm afraid youâre the only man in this world who would be so calculative.â
Shaun laughed. âHardly anyone in the world would spend as much on their girlfriends as me. On the other hand, Neeson Corporation is managed by Sarahâs brother, Thomas. In order to help Thomas out, Iâve secretly invested 8 billion dollars in the company in the last few years to support it. Besides, Iâve disputed a few lawsuits for Thomas. The fees for my service is a few hundred million dollars per lawsuit, but I have yet to receive the remuneration.â
After pausing for a moment, Shaun shifted his eyes to the female judge. âHere are the receipts containing all the fund transactions. Also, when Miss Neeson was with me, she was engaged in an adulterous relationship with a drug addict. The policeâs earlier investigative records regarding this incident are all here.â
