No one expected this result. Looking at lissa Rooney, already unconscious, it seed like her life had reached its end.
As for Jude Donovan, he clenched his fists, seemingly deep in thought.
He knew that even now, he realized there wouldn’t be a good outco.
Since it had co to this, he might as well get so clarity.
"Sect Leader, why do you trust Tiana Thorne so much? Are you sure it wasn’t her who hurt lissa, but that lissa staged it herself? I recall that you were present when it happened, and no one could see the exact situation."
Everyone was shocked.
Goodness, what audacity, to question so directly.
Jude has always been like this, never giving up until the end.
This indeed counted as a puzzle.
Everyone looked at him, and even though they knew Tiana was innocent, they still wanted to know how this was determined.
Isaac’s voice was very cold: "I listened to her testimony. I have forensic experts under who specialize in assisting police with investigations, and have professional insights into wounds. If it was she who stabbed, the wound wouldn’t be on the right side of lissa."
"Bro, that’s too professional, they don’t understand." Julian Ford interrupted him lazily, then looked at lissa, whom he had never bothered to glance at before.
Everyone followed his gaze, unsure of what the danger in his eyes signified.
"Since the forensic expert can determine if it’s self-injury or inflicted, have her sent to the hospital, and request a forensic expert from the police to appraise it and issue a report. Then, send it to Director Donovan’s company; simpler this way," Julian said.
Everyone’s hearts skipped a beat; this was too cruel...
To have a forensic expert verify a living person.
Checking the wound would tear it open, leaving lissa a lot to handle.
But for now, it seed like this was the only way to prove Tiana’s innocence.
"Any other objections?" Julian asked.
Who would dare to ask more questions, unafraid of death?
Besides, in this situation, Tiana was truly being wronged.
Julian continued, "If there’s nothing else, everyone should disperse."
At this mont, Jude Donovan felt weak, filled with fear.
The certainty of the two n suggested that everything really had nothing to do with Tiana.
If the appraisal results ca out, then he would face complete ruin...
Complete ruin...
At the thought of this, Jude couldn’t hold back any longer. As the crowd dispersed, he quickly walked up to Julian and Isaac.
His expression turned kindly, and he showed a smile.
"Mr. Ford, Sect Leader Isaac, I was also deceived by lissa, leading to a misunderstanding with Miss Thorne, which resulted in my impolite actions. This is just a misunderstanding. Once clarified, it’s all good. Here, I apologize to Miss Thorne, Sect Leader Isaac, and Director Dawson, hoping we don’t damage the harmony between us."
"Misunderstanding, it is indeed a misunderstanding." Julian’s sly phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and he patted his shoulder.
It was gentle, yet Jude felt like his shoulder weighed a thousand pounds.
He retracted his hand and looked at Isaac, his cold and wicked expression softening a bit: "Bro, what do you say?"
"Not forgiving."
Isaac didn’t say much, his simple three words flung Jude into hell.
May Sloane looked on with admiration in her eyes.
So handso!
Tiana Thorne pursed her lips, her fox-like eyes blinked, this answer was exactly to her liking, not forgiving!
The little vixen isn’t that kind-hearted.
Jude’s face turned pale, his lips moved, unsure of what to say for the mont, and his heart suddenly sank.
Julian’s thin lips curled into a smile, his brows carried a hint of mischievousness, yet his deanor was extrely cold, he spoke leisurely: "You hired soone to beat up my brother, that’s a fact. If my brother wasn’t the Sect Leader, would Wyatt have returned ho unscathed today?"
Jude’s expression grew paler, lowering his head.
"Early apology would have avoided it all. This is not a misunderstanding and cannot be forgiven," Julian said.
Jude shivered, looking towards Tiana, hoping she would plead for him.
Tiana only smiled, her tone a bit mocking: "Director Donovan, I’m no saint, half an hour ago, you told to get out of the entertainnt industry. Given how aggressive and unforgiving you were before, don’t you feel ashad coming to beg now?"
This slap on the face not only stung but turned him into a pig’s head.
Tiana remarked, "Let’s continue with the auditions."
With that, she looked at Eugene Dawson and Dalton Grant, and smiled gently: "Is that okay?"
Eugene nodded.
Dalton remarked, "Co on over."
This storm ended at this mont, like before, Tiana entered the audition room, waiting for the directors to take their places before she proceeded to audition a short scene.
The difference was that lissa and Jude were no longer there.
Tiana perford the sa scene lissa had auditioned for, but her expressions and overall grasp were dozens of tis better than lissa’s.
On the side, Mabel Hughes watched her exquisite performance, lightly pursing her lips.
Her assistant, Momo, seeing this, discontentedly remarked: "Mabel, lissa can no longer act now, and the judges’ amazent as they look at her, eagerly wanting to announce her as the lead actress, isn’t that just currying favor with the Sect Leader?"
The usually gentle and elegant Mabel unexpectedly knitted her brows: "Shut up."
Momo blushed, biting her lip: "Mabel."
"Her acting is indeed superb, and can be considered outstanding. If she were the lead actress, it would simply be that my skills aren’t as good. Such talk shouldn’t be said in the future. If you can’t help but say it next ti, look at lissa’s outco instead."
Momo shuddered and quickly glanced around, fearing anyone heard her words.
When she turned back to look at Sect Leader Isaac, she felt a wave of fear, her expression slightly pale: "I’m sorry, Mabel, I won’t say such things in the future."
Mabel nodded lightly, seeing her frightened appearance, she gently consoled: "Alright, as long as you don’t do anything bad, Sect Leader Isaac won’t make things difficult for us."
"Mm."
She added: "Once this is all over, accompany to the hospital to see lissa."
Momo, in shock, felt a chill down her spine, quickly stopping her: "Mabel, she’s already like this, everyone’s avoiding her like the plague. If you go see her, won’t it bring trouble to you?"
Mabel patiently explained: "She’s already like this, and if I, as her only friend, don’t visit her, it would be too pitiful. What she did wrong doesn’t represent , and as her friend, I’m doing my part without offending anyone."
Momo could only nod.
Mabel truly is a warm person, she only hopes that Mabel’s path in the entertainnt industry grows better and better.
Tiana’s audition concluded, and she sat down to rest.
She looked left and right but didn’t see Brother Isaac and Second Brother.
Big Brother was on a business trip, the Second Brother by her side, and now there was a Brother Isaac, was he the Third Brother?
This...
Mom was quite the prolific one...
