Chapter565 Cheerful Result
Though it was expected, tears filled Hannah's eyes when she heard the voice of justice.
She looked at Oscar, who could finally step out of jail above board after several months of imprisonment. She tried to resist her emotional intensity.
The judge continued, "According to the criminal facts of Charles Sawyer, the court will retry the case after the Investigation Department collects new evidence and lodges an appeal. Dismiss!"
After pounding the gavel, the judge and jury began to move out of the courtroom, and so did the audience.
Hannah saw the bailiff get Oscar out of those handcuffs, which seemed too heavy for Oscar's bony wrists to wear.
Oscar's eyes met Hannah's, and he opened his mouth to say, "Wait for me."
Hannah's vision blurred. She just saw Oscar moving away in front of her.
"Hannah, Oscar has left. Why don't you leave?" Susan mentioned her.
Hannah pursed her lips. With the outburst of all the complicated and violent passions, she turned around abruptly and rushed out of the courtroom.
Before Susan reacted, Hannah had disappeared from her sight.
Was it the so-call true love? Susan was a bit jealous of Hannah, as she didn't know what love was while her friend was head over heels in love.
Choosing not to ponder over it, Susan went after her friend.
Out of the courtroom, Hannah was waiting for Oscar at an exit.
After several minutes of anxious wait, she saw Oscar and Josh stepping out together.
Oscar had changed from the prison clothes into his clothes, which seemed to be at least two sizes too large. He lost so much weight during the period.
Hannah's tears kept dropping down.
Oscar stopped some distance away, smiling as he always did. He suddenly opened his arms to Hannah, and Hannah ran to him without hesitation, hitting heavily onto his skinny chest.
The strong man who used to have a well-built body with muscles everywhere was reduced almost to a skeleton.
Hannah held him tightly, painful. She felt the familiar smell and the temperature of his body, and her tears dampened his clothes.
Seeing the lovers embracing in the distance, Susan smiled and left, for she didn't want to be a third wheel there. She guessed they would have lots of crazy sex tonight.
Was Oscar vigorous enough to do it?
Susan walked while thinking, and Manual's name somehow occurred to her.
Manuel was absent from the second hearing.
Did he abandon Oscar, as replaceing his cousin's case hopeless? Was he such a realist?
Pondering it, Susan left.
Outside the court, Hannah was still holding Oscar tightly. Most passers-by stopped and watched them for a while, touched by their clinging affection.
With dozens of guards around her, Sarah stepped out of the court and saw the scene. After all, the biggest winner was this bitch, who not only retaliated against Charles but saved Oscar safe and sound. While she only ended up getting dumped by a bastard. Sarah became even angrier while thinking, leaving with her teeth clenched.
"... Shall we leave?" Josh couldn't help but disturb the couple. He thought they might embrace forever without interruption, and he, a poor old guy, didn't want to be a third wheel.
After being mentioned, Hannah returned to herself and flushed. She lifted her head off Oscar's chest and saw his affectionate smile.
"You can hold me as long as you wish when we get home." He said.
Hannah pouted. He talked as if it was all her wishful thinking but he did hold her tightly too.
Oscar held Hannah's hand, and they walked down the stairs together.
A great many journalists were waiting in front of the entrance steps. They interviewed other people involved who had come out earlier. But their focus was still on Oscar and Hannah. They were crowded around by the journalists in front of the stairs.
"Mr Wells, have you got anything to say about having redressed a wrong?"
"We heard that it was Charles who wronged Mr Wells. He disguised himself as a good man but was exposed by his wife, Sarah. Are you content with the result?"
"Mrs Wells, do you have anything to say about Mr Wells' being acquitted?"
Their questions were too intensive for Oscar and Hannah to catch.
At the moment, Hannah wanted to spend less time dealing with the media.
She responded simply, "When I presented in court, I said I believed the justice. So I took his acquittal for granted."
"Do you have anything to say about Charles' crimes?"
"He deserves to face justice for not being a good man. I have nothing to say about it, as it should be brought to justice." "Mrs Wells..."
"I'm sorry, my husband just came out from prison. He needs some rest. Excuse me, excuse me."
On hearing 'my husband', the man abreast of Hannah looked pleased.
Hannah and Oscar finally got out of the place with Jimmy's help, leaving the journalists shouting questions there.
Hannah took a deep breath after sitting inside the car. Looking back at the court, she never wanted to approach that place anymore.
She took Oscar's arm and held it tightly. Because of this separation, she was aware of how much she loved him and feared losing him.
All the strong emotions melt into the silence inside the car.
Suddenly, the ringing of Hannah's phone broke the silence. She saw the screen and told Oscar, "Venus's call."
None of the Wells family presented in the second hearing today.
Venus was too resentful, which made her sick and bedridden after getting back from the first trial. Robert had to take care of his wife so he couldn't come either, while David and Thomas were absent for work affairs.
Venus might have received the news of Oscar's acquittal and called to ensure it.
"Answer it," Said Oscar in a faint voice.
Hannah thought he had been trying to cheer himself up, but she was unsure if it was her misconception.
"Good afternoon, Mum." Hannah picked up the phone.
"Oh, dear, has Oscar been acquitted?" asked Venus excitedly.
