Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

25 Final verdict
“I can’t be in your shoes, Miss Maya...” he stretched her name while his mind completed the statement, ...because all those who
bothered me are already 6 feet below, his eyes smiling at her. 1
“So, in other words, you don’t feel remorseful?” He asked again.
“I don’t.”
“Your honor, that’s all I have to say.” Spid returned to his seat beside Jeslyn while waiting for the court to carry out Maya’s
judgment.
The audience watched the judge who was writing in his booklet, waiting to hear the judgment.
Maya composed herself although her heart was a mess as it beat chaotically. If it were in her she would choose to walk out a
free person, but she knew it was not possible. 2
power,
A while later, a young lady walked out of a side room and handed some papers to the judge.
The judge looked through the papers before he cleared his throat and started to give his statement.
“On this day, 27 October, an appeal was filed on the case of murder carried out by the trial court of Rose City on the 15 of
October 2022.
However, after new evidence was found and the court heard from both parties, the jury, having returned the verdict of guilty
murder in the first degree on deliberate premeditation and extreme cruelty and atrocity, Jeslyn Lee was found... not guilty and is
hereby discharged of all crimes leveled. against her.
Maya Wang, the court having duly considered your offense and your act of not showing remorse hereby sentence you to death
by Lethal injection which will be carried out on the 31st of October, 2022!” 8
The second after the judge pronounced Maya’s sentence, he broke the nib of his pen and got up to leave the room.
Maya couldn’t believe her ears. She knew she would be sentenced but the death sentence was out of her expectation! 3

How could they give her a death sentence? Wasn’t Jeslyn accused of the same crime? Why wasn’t she given life imprisonment?

The cops approached Maya while those thoughts ran through her mind.
They tried to cuff her hands but Maya wouldn’t cooperate. She started to struggle while screaming at the top of her lungs.
“This is injustice! I refuse this verdict! Let me go, let me go! This is unfair!!!” She cried as she fought to be freed.
Jeslyn was surprised at first but later burst into a puddle of laughter. She wasn’t laughing because she was happy that Maya
would be dying. She was laughing because her name had been cleared and she was a free bird now.
A teardrop slowly fell from her right eye and she wiped it before she stood up from her seat.

“Jeslyn, Miss, please save me! I’m sorry, please I beg you, talk to your lawyer, he can save me, please, I don’t want to die!”
She begged frantically as she was being dragged away.
Seeing that Jeslyn wasn’t feeling concerned, she hurriedly opened her mouth as they were already approaching the entrance.
“Jeslyn, they are lurking around you. They don’t intend to give up. The Miss has no intention to let you go!” She had thought that
by saying that, the kind-hearted Jeslyn would tell the police to stop, but to her astonishment, Jeslyn was looking at her with a
smile while waving at her.
Her desperation grew stronger as she changed her tone and started to beg for her dear life.
“I’m sorry for betraying you... please give me one last chance... forgive me and tell the judge to take back his verdict! Please
Jeslyn, Jeslyyyyyyn!!! 2
Maya’s voice faded away as she was dragged out of the entrance.
Jeslyn looked at her family after Maya was gone and the corner of her lips curled into a sneer.

“Whatever comes, I’ll face it head on. It won’t break me but rather make me stronger.” She said before she followed Spid who
just came back from signing some documents out of the court.
The people were excited when they heard Jeslyn was innocent. While some were crying, others were rejoicing.
Meanwhile, in another country, Maverick who was sitting beside Rex picked up his phone and made a call while his eyes were
on Jeslyn who was going out of the courtroom with Spid. 3
“Bring her here.” He said into the phone before he disconnected the call and set his phone aside.
Rex, who had been watching the court preceding while eating popcorn, turned to look at his brother. 1
“Huh? Who are you bringing here?” 1
Maverick ignored him and picked up a magazine to read.
Rex drew closer to him and beamed. “Brother, who is my sister-in-law? I have waited for so long and my organs are no longer
stable. Just tell me who she is, please.” (3
Silence.
“A little, please!”
Silence.
“Ok, the first and last letters of her name.”
“Has the goods been seized from them?” Maverick asked without looking at him.
Rex’s lips slowly covered his teeth and his face changed. He formed claws with his fingers and made a strangling gesture, like
he was imagining himself chocking his brother.
“It’s been a long time since you strangled someone. The CEO of latex needs to be strangled, go do it... I want the result tonight.”
“Ah?!” Rex was startled by his brother’s order.

“Rex?”
Maverick turned his gaze from the magazine to look at the astonished-looking Rex.
“B-brother,” he swallowed. “T-that guy is a tough one.”
“Hmm, that’s why you have to be the one to go strangle him. Kill him with your claws. Don’t use the gun, nor employ a
seductress.” With that said, he got up and left. 3
Rex almost cried as he watched his brother’s back. “Who is going to save me from this monster? I have lived a sorrowful life for
so long!”
At the front of the court, Jeslyn who was now wearing a white gown instead of prison uniform stood by the black car as her mind
wandered around.
She remembered she hadn’t bid her friends in prison a proper farewell. She bit her lips as memories played in her mind. Those
few days with Pink and Yellow were one of the greatest days of her life and she didn’t wish for days like that to end.
Secondly, she thought of how her life would be now. Everything has been taken from her and she has no place to go.
She didn’t bring up the matter of the inheritance in court because she knew that whoever the young Miss was, she wouldn’t give
up until she ruined her completely and to achieve that, her grandfather’s reputation will be placed on the line.
