A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 999 Sugar-coated Bullets

Rae was a little speechless. Why his words were so odd?

She muttered, "You also know that I am kind? You also know that you are not good to me before!"

"Yeah! It was really bad for you before!" Marcel knocked on the table and motioned to Rae to take the file.

Rae had a very strange feeling, why she felt Captain Hopkins suddenly become so gentle?

But this gentle made Rae have a kind of creepy feeling. He was so pleasant, and occasionally joked, wasn’t this a sugar-coated cannonball?

Seeing her suspicious eyes, Marcel suddenly felt very frustrated. He was really too bad for her before, so she now believed in his professionalism and didn't believe in others!

"Read the file first!" Marcel said.

Rae took it.

"Ophelia saw this just now!"

"Oh!" After Rae took it, the whole person was shocked. "This, when did you prepare these?"

Rae knew that Marcel had always been well prepared, but she didn't expect that he was also well prepared this time.

He had collected all the evidence of Heath's crime. Although it was not evidence of the Karina and the Stanley’s case, the spearhead and motive had been directed at Heath.

Rae didn't expect to be so detailed, and even some of the things Ophelia involved were found!

"Everyone's investigation is ready!" Marcel said in a deep voice. "Reuben is much cleaner than I expected. He didn't do any illegal business. Heath took the lead in many of YS Club's business. Stefan instructed. Reuben is only responsible for clearing up a messy situation for Heath!"

"What about Karina's case?" Rae was a little worried.

"It will always be clear!" Marcel wasn't worried at all.

Rae didn't know what Marcel will do!

"I know you will!" Rae nodded.

"You know?" Marcel remembered what Rae had said in the interrogation room just now, she believed in him so much. Marcel looked at her at this time and smiled suddenly, "Rae, why do you believe that I can investigate clearly?"

Hearing this, Rae blushed immediately. She lowered her head and whispered, "No reason!"

Seeing Rae show such a shy look, like a cute girl, instead of being as cold as before, his eyes can't help but soften a lot.

He stood up and said to Rae, "Go out with me!"

"Where to go?" Rae asked.

"Court!" Marcel said.

"Court?" Rae was completely puzzled. "Why go to the court?"

"Your good friend Raphael's case is in court today, don't you want to go?" Marcel asked.

Rae was shocked. Why didn't she know that the court was going to be held today? Why didn't those people tell her? She was too busy during this period of time. Raphael was detained because of the murder. She could only meet him after the investigation was over. Later, when she went there, she was told that the investigation was not over. Now it seemed that not the investigation was not over, but they wanted to hold a direct court session to avoid his contact with anyone.

But why did Marcel ask her to go?

Did he mind it before?

It was weird!

Rae didn't ask too much, and followed Marcel downstairs.

Along the way, everyone looked at them wherever they went.

Rae was also really embarrassed, but still lowered her head, as if nothing happened. She went downstairs with Marcel, got into the elevator, then went got in the car together, and left!

Fifteen minutes later, they arrived at Supreme Court.

Marcel walked ahead, Rae still followed.

His steps were so big that Rae can only take a few steps to catch up with him.

Suddenly, Marcel seemed to be aware of something, stopped, and stretched out his hand towards Rae.

Rae was taken aback, then subconsciously raised her head and looked at him. "What’s the matter?"

"Give me your hand!" Marcel said solemnly.

Rae was puzzled, but still did. She stretched out her hand carefully, not daring to touch his big hand. She did not dare to grasp the wide and slender hand with clear lines.

Marcel tilted her head, grabbed her hand, and gently wrapped her small hand inside her big hand.

Rae was stunned at once. An electric wave-like electric current filled the limbs, all the way to the soles of the feet.

Rae blushed and thought to herself, ‘They just hold hands, but holding hands here is not too eye- catching!’

She was very uncomfortable, she had never been like this in her life!

Marcel's footsteps seemed to have slowed down quite a bit, matching Rae's footsteps.

This feeling was very strange. Rae never thought that there would be such a day when she would appear in a public place holding hands with Marcel, in an intimate manner, so that she didn't know how she walked into the lobby of the court! After sitting down, her heart was knocking wildly! And Marcel had not let go of her hand, just holding it like this, even if they sit down, their hands were still holding!

Rae's hands were sweaty. She sat upright, like a child who had just went to school, so respectful.

Soon, a lot of people arrived. The judge and the defense lawyer came. She knew Raphael's lawyer and the prosecutor. The court opened soon.

Rae saw Raphael here. His hair was very short, he had closely cropped hair and he looked quite energetic. But his eyes were dead silent, they seemed unable to stir up a single wave, like a pool of stagnant water!

Rae looked at him, suddenly feeling very sad.

She didn't know where Raphael's future was!

She just felt that if Raphael was really put to death, it would be really a regret!

She looked at Raphael, and tears were in her eyes!

And Raphael, as if feeling something, suddenly raised his eyes and looked at the audience seat. When Raphael's dead eyes met Rae's eyes, they suddenly lit up!

At that moment, Rae felt Raphael's hope!

She didn’t know why she suddenly burst into tears, like running on a road without a confidant, and suddenly encountering a companion. If Raphael was energetic, there may be hope. If he was not self- confident, nobody can help him! Rae even thought that maybe soon, she would be found out that she was Rae's impostor, and at that time, she might also be sentenced here!

The law was sacred and inviolable!

Rae hoped that Raphael can be truly powerful and not be so depressed.

She wiped her tears, stretched out her fist, waved to Raphael, and made a gesture of cheering.

Raphael’s eyes were already bright, but when he saw Marcel next to Rae, the light suddenly disappeared! The eyes were gloomy.

He slowly lowered his head and didn't lift it up again.

There was a debate among the lawyers, and one witness after another appeared in the gallery!

Rae was worried, always worried.

Suddenly, her hand was held tightly, and she suddenly regained her consciousness, and met Marcel's eyes. He patted her hand gently, and whispered, "Don't worry, Raphael won’t die, and won't have life imprisonment!"

"Why?" Rae couldn't believe it, her eyes met Marcel's deep and dark eyes, and there was seriousness in it. Rae also smiled, "I know, I believe you, if you say no, he will be okay!"

Marcel was a little bit dumbfounded, "What? You believe what I said?"

Rae nodded seriously, "Yes, I believe you!"

Marcel pondered slightly, "Raphael's father suddenly changed his confession, and it will help Raphael, probably because his conscience, he didn't want Raphael to be sentenced to death or life!"

Rae was stunned.

"Rae, you and Raphael are childhood sweethearts, so you also hope he can be well?"

Rae nodded, "Yes!"

Marcel's eyes sank slightly. "How many years have you known him?"

Rae was taken aback for a long time before saying, "Many years!"

"What? You need to think about it before answering?"

Rae's heart suddenly did a flip and she looked at Marcel.

Marcel locked her eyes.

Rae said again, "It's been a few years. We knew each other since we were a child. I don't know how many years exactly!"

She didn't investigate this carefully. She really can't remember how many years!

Marcel still looked at her with deep eyes, and suddenly changed the topic. "Rae, where did you get the three medicines?"

Rae was shocked. She looked into his eyes. She didn't expect him to change the subject so quickly, but she pondered slightly and said seriously, "Marcel, can I trust you?"

Marcel was startled slightly, his eyes deepened, and then a brilliant brilliance rose in his eyes.

Rae knew that the truth was about to come to light, and there were many things she had to tell Marcel in the near future.

After being silent for a long time, after Rae was slightly startled, he suddenly asked in a low voice and softly, "Then, would you like to believe me?"

Rae’s heart trembled.

Marcel said again, "As long as you are willing to believe, I am worthy of your belief!"

Rae moved a little, pursed her lips, and squeezed his hand firmly, "From now on, in the near future, I will tell you, everything, now, please believe me, okay?"

Marcel's body shook, and he raised his eyebrows. He looked at her for a while, but smiled and asked, "Why not now?"

If she really believed him, she would not hold something back from him!

However, she said she would tell him in the near future!© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Then, she still didn't trust him enough!

Marcel's smile concealed the sorrow to the deepest part of his heart.

"You still have concerns in your heart!"

Rae trembled in her heart, she didn't dare to look at his eyes again, and she didn't want to look at his smile again. She lowered her eyes and closed her eyes. Her mouths opened a few times, and there was choking sensation in chest. She finally said softly, "Let's stop talking, this is the trial court!"

After that, she didn't say anything.

Marcel didn't say any more, but he let her hand go!

Rae looked at her hand and suddenly felt sad.

Soon the recess time came, and the hearing will continue after the afternoon.

She heard that Raphael's case will not be heard for too long, at least his own case will not be heard for too long.

Rae decided to come back the next day, but in the afternoon, they wanted to arrest Heath, so naturally they couldn't come here.

Marcel said that Raphael will not be sentenced to life, that was enough for Raphael, and Rae thought this was also good.

Before leaving, she looked at Raphael, but Raphael didn't even look at her again.

Rae settled and walked out.

After only two steps, her hand was caught again.

Rae looked up and saw Marcel.
