The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 795

“You—”

Sun shot up from his seat, his face flushing red, then turning pale. He looked completely humiliated.

“As a lawyer, you’re really going to stoop to personal attacks?!”

“Personal attacks?” Charlotte leaned back against the table, lifting her chin a little. “You took public money to study abroad, then came back and betrayed your country. Am I wrong?”

“As a lawyer, you don’t fight for justice. You defend murderers for money, twisting the truth. Am I wrong?”

“You look down on Eldoria’s education and sneer at Eldoria itself, but you’ve lost to Eldoria’s lawyers again and again. Am I wrong?”

Charlotte’s eyes were cold and distant as she stared at him. “Sun, tell me. What did I say that wasn’t true?”

Sun opened his mouth, but nothing came out. He couldn’t find a single word to argue back. It almost felt like he’d just handed her his pride and asked her to crush it.

The gallery, already fired up after what happened in the Stella case, started buzzing even louder after Charlotte finished.

“He looks down on Eldoria, but he’s happy to take our money. What a joke.”

“He got a scholarship to study abroad, then turned his back on us? And he still acts like he’s better than everyone?”

“Do lawyers not care about ethics anymore? He’ll say anything for a paycheck. People like him shouldn’t be lawyers at all.”

“Go back to Apex!”

The chatter from the crowd grew louder, all blending together into a single chant. “Get out! Get out!”

Sun heard the wave of rejection and scowled, shooting Charlotte a hard glare.

“This isn’t over.”

He slunk away, head down, while the crowd kept shouting at his back.

Once Sun left, police officers appeared. That was when it really hit Fedelia and Mahoney—the case was lost, and prison was waiting.

Both Stella and Charlotte looked up.

A man in a crisp suit and glasses stood in front of them, blocking the way. It was Roger.

“Are you okay?”

Roger turned, his eyes landing on Stella.

Stella stared at him, clearly in shock, and just shook her head.

*She’s actually looking at me. Is she too stunned to look away?*

Roger’s lips curled into a faint, satisfied smile.

“You’ll pay for this, Stella!” Fedelia screamed as the police cuffed her. Her clothes were splattered with blood, and she looked completely defeated.
