570 (Monthly Ticket Additional Chapter 12)
Sienna Thornton and her group hurried back to the courtroom.
Zane Forrester also came over, glanced behind and didn't see his son, and asked, "Jules didn't come?"
Sienna whispered, "He has work to do today."
Zane nodded, saying nothing more.
The judge and jury took their seats, and the judge struck the gavel, "Does the jury have a verdict?"
The foreman of the jury stood up, "Yes, Your Honor." He handed over a yellow note, which the bailiff presented to the judge.
The judge opened the note and, before announcing the verdict, glanced at Zane, then looked back at the note.
This glance made Sienna and the others feel anxious.
Judge: "Due to insufficient evidence in this case, the jury unanimously voted for acquittal!"
The judge struck the gavel again and declared: "The defendant is released in court!"
Sienna felt relieved and turned to Zane, saying, "Congratulations!"
