Her Revenge Returns (Lea and Alfred)

Chapter 52

Chapter 52

“Alfred, L. Lea started, but her words got stuck as Alfred walked up to her.

“Lea,” he said, pulling her into a comforting embrace. “I really like you.”

Lea leaned into his chest, soothed by the rhythmic beat of his heart, and felt a wave of calm wash over her. She knew he would always stand by her. After a moment nestled in his arms, she looked up and asked, “When are you leaving Vaporleon City?”

Alfred gazed down at her, a flicker of worry crossing his features. “I’ve still got some loose ends to tie up. It might take a while, he admined.

“Okay, then.” Lea began, but their conversation was interrupted by a swarm of reporters rushing in.

“We need to interview Mr. Jensen!”

“How is he doing! Is he still alive!”

“Did the hospital take a bribe to keep him hidden from the cops?”

The hospital security was overwhelmed, unable to keep the press from advancing toward the ICU

Lea and Alfred exchanged a look and moved to help manage the chaos.

Lorrand was comered by the media, forced to give an impromptu interview while Chandler’s condition was broadcast live online.

Under Intense scrutiny, Lorrand revealed Chandler was still in critical condition and that the hospital was doing everything possible to save him.

Online reactions were swift and brutal..

[Man, those injuries look brutal]

rall the crap he’s pulled

[This is just desserts

for all sh

comes around!]

[What goes around, comes

[Why bother saving him? He’s just taking up good air. Just let him go

[Keep him alive–that’s the best way to make him pay!!

[Not even the devil would take this piece of work!]

Lea went to the head office and waited for nearly half an hour before Lorrand returned.

“Talk to Mr. Jensen’s family about donating his organs to save some lives,” she suggested.

Every year, tons of people needed organ transplants. Often, organs from those who died in accidents could give others a second chance at life.

“Okay, I’ll handle it,” Lorrand replied. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Chandler’s family hadn’t shown up and didn’t dare to. The media was camped outside the hospital, ready to pounce. If the family showed up. they’d be thrown into a media frenzy and face vicious online backlash.

Lorrand quickly discussed it with Chandler’s assistant, who immediately agreed and assured that he could get the family to sign off on the orgin donation.

Donating organs could gain some public goodwill, which would be good for the family.

The assistant called Chandler’s family, and after a brief discussion, got their consent to cooperate with the hospital and quickly handle the paperwork.

The next day, it was announced that Chandler and his family had agreed to donate his orguns and his body for research. Despite his tarnished reputation, this news trended online. It calmed some people’s anger slightly, but many were still furious.

[This doesn’t even begin to make up for all the crap he’s pulled!]

He should rot in hell forever!]

hey think this will smooth things over? As if we’re that gullible?]

[They

[One actress insisted that even in death, the lawsuits against him should continue.

Shawn, who was in police custody, was stunned when he heard the news. He knew Chandler too well, there was no way he’d have agreed to donate his organs or his entire body for research.

Impossible–it has to be someone pulling the strings behind the scenes, ensuring even Chandler’s remains are used for research. How ruthless, he mused internally.

On the third day, Chandler died in the hospital

Meanwhile, several patients at Riverview Hospital successfully received transplants of corneas, kidneys, livers, and hearts from his donated organs.

One of the recipients, a five–year–old girl who received a corneal transplant, helped soften public anger slightly when her story was released.

On the fourth morning, they headed to court in Vaporleon City for Shawn’s hearing, Christian, determined to see the person who hurt his granddaughter face stern justice, attended with Lea by his side.

They took a discreet route and settled into the back row before the proceedings began, maintaining a low profile.

Christian was dressed sharply in a navy blue suit, complemented by silver–rimmed glasses, while Lea opted for a cool gray, campus–style suit skirt. Her hair, styled straight with a black center length, partially veiled her face, accentuating her delicate, fair features and adding a touch of aloof elegance.

Matilda had knew Christian was going to the count, even pressuring him at the old house to ensure Shawn received a heavy sentence.

Lea was well aware that Matilda would not appear

ear without a compelling reason. Her presence alone would create a buzz, especially with the unresolved issues surrounding the Helen incident still lingering, which could stir significant gossip among Vaporleon City’s elite.

Lea and Christian entered the courtroom unnoticed, with all attention fixed on the celebrity plaintiffs

Top

celebrities from Iverton had flown in to support the trial, advocating for women’s rights in the entertainment industry.

The courtroom was packed with media from both Vaporleon and Iverton. Police had significantly increased security to manage the crowd and ensure order during the high–profile trial.

Once the case started, the courtroom was buzzing with reporters and spectators.

Shawn slumped in his chair, facing the live female artists representing the plaintiffs, all under the banner of Star Entertainment.

Five lawyers were present for the victims, a testament to the financial resources each artist could muster. If all the involved parties had shown up, the courtroom would have been too small.

Shawn’s anxiety peaked as the shutter clicks of cameras echoed through the room, signaling that his fate was sealed. He was fully aware that he was on trial before the entire world, and leniency was off the table.

The plaintiff leading the charge was a 24–year–old artist named Farah Lewis, who initiated the Lawsuit seeking justice for her sister–a headline- making tragedy five years prior where her sister, another artist under Star Entertainment, had committed suicide.

The evidence was overwhelming, leaving Shawn and his attorney no ground to stand on. The death sentence was inevitable

When the judge pronounced the sentence, Lea couldn’t suppress a smirk, thoroughly satisfied with the outcome.

Throughout the trial, Shawn conceded to most accusations but wehemently denied any involvement in the incident concerning Helen. He concocted a story, claiming the Berry family had framed him and Chandler, positioning them as the actual victims.

This assertion turned the courtroom into a mix of murmurs and laughter. The reporters leaped at the opportunity to question him.

“Do you actually believe the Berry family set you up? Seriously!”

“He’s about to receive the death penalty. Has he lost his mind!”

Why i

“Why is he causing chaos now?”

“Maybe he’s just trying to drag someone down with him.”

Some attendees began to suspect there was more to his story.

“If he’s already getting the death sentence, why lief”

“What’s he gaining from this?”

“Yeah, if he’s owning up to everything else, why deny this?”

“There might be more to this story than we realize.”
