Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia! - Chapter 781 - 761: Difficult Man
Jiayi’s accusation of an untenable charge was just pronounced by the judge when Boris’s face contorted on the spot, his deep blue eyes filled with rage and annoyance.
Watching Boris stride over, Nie Yixiao feared he would harm Jiayi out of frustration. His expression changed, he stepped forward to shield her, protecting Jiayi unnoticeably and spoke in fluent English with a cold voice:
"The trial has ended, Mr. Boris. Is there anything else you need?"
Boris, with his eyes red with anger, stared at the petite Asian woman behind the young man, "I won’t let this rest, LO will not die in vain, I will make sure you, the murderer, will face the justice you deserve~!"
"Mr. Boris!" Nie Yixiao spoke with righteous indignation, stressing his words, "The judge and jury have already declared Jiayi innocent. Although you may not understand Chinese, your translator should have informed you! Please stop pursuing this matter incessantly and do not approach Jiayi anymore—return to your country immediately!"
"You—" Boris, furious to the point of bulging veins, had no outlet for his anger but to glare intensely at Jiayi behind the man, and in his extreme irritation, he let anything slip, "If I had known, that day on the Ya Family’s balcony, I should have—should have pushed you down! That way, you wouldn’t have caused my daughter’s death!"
A sudden jolt went through Jiayi’s heart.
Looking at Boris’s bloodshot eyes, her mind seemed to flash with images...
As vivid as if they were right before her eyes.
On the balcony, Boris had the same bloodshot eyes as he approached her step by step, reaching out his hands, trying to push her off...
No wonder she felt uneasy upon seeing Boris at the wedding.
It turns out, he almost harmed her years ago.
Nie Yixiao also caught on to something, his expression turned cold, and without hesitation, he called out, "Lawyer Liu!"
Lawyer Liu was the internationally acclaimed lawyer who had come with Nie Yixiao to Yunling and was also a close personal friend.
Lawyer Liu had just stepped out and, seeing Nie Yixiao and Miss Chu confronting Boris, did not interrupt and stood silently to the side.
Only now did Lawyer Liu step forward.
Nie Yixiao spoke calmly, "Lawyer Liu, you heard what Boris just said. Considering Mr. Boris’s past grudges against Miss Chu and his recent hatred, I highly suspect that if he remains in China, he will harm Miss Chu. I now entrust you to press charges against Mr. Boris for defamation and intimidation, and to apply for a court restraining order prohibiting Mr. Boris from coming within ten meters of Miss Chu!"
Lawyer Liu smiled confidently, "No problem, Yixiao. Cases like this are my specialty, and I’ve never lost one."
Boris’s face turned purple with rage—having failed to convict Chu Jiayi, and now he was the one being sued? Clenching his teeth, he sneered, "Defamation? Intimidation? A restraining order? Aside from your personal lawyer, who else heard...Hahaha..."
Before he could finish, Lawyer Liu clapped his hands.
The reporters who had been interviewing Jiayi appeared out of nowhere, their cameras and recording pens still running.
Lawyer Liu coughed twice, "I apologize, Mr. Boris, but as you were being impolite to Miss Chu just now, I asked a few remaining reporters to lend a hand. My hearing your threats to Miss Chu might not be of use, but their testimony certainly will be."
With that, he glanced at the reporters and winked, "You didn’t come for nothing today. This high official from A Country, losing his decorum outside the courtroom, menacing Miss Chu like a street thug—you all heard it? That should suffice for your magazine submissions. You may go now!"
The reporters scattered all at once.
Boris, outplayed by the experienced lawyer, was immediately at a loss and quickly interjected, "You—what do you want?"
Lawyer Liu glanced at Nie Yixiao and understanding his intention, said:
"Mr. Nie’s request is simple: either leave China immediately or we’ll sue you until you have nothing left. The reporters’ coverage will serve as the best evidence in our case against you for intimidation."
Boris was left red-faced with anger.
This Nie Yixiao was clearly a man with a serene exterior but proved to be an exceedingly difficult person to contend with.
Without agreeing, would he really be sued in China by them?
Her daughter died in China, and must he also lose his dignity there, or even go to jail?
Boris swallowed his anger, compelled by helplessness, "Fine. I will leave China!"
Just as he was about to leave huffily.
Jiayi suddenly called out, "Wait a minute."
Nie Yixiao and Lawyer Liu looked at Jiayi.
Boris’s steps also halted, his murderous deep blue eyes glared at Jiayi, his fists clenched.
She took a few steps forward, slightly raised her chin, her cold lashes fluttering slowly, her tone full of irony:
"I just want to say two things. First, whether you believe it or not, I did not kill your daughter. However, we Chinese have a saying — what goes around comes around."
Her English was very standard, her voice had shed its usual delicateness, each word pronounced distinctly from her rosy lips, like pearls falling onto a jade plate.
Boris clenched his fist tighter, sweat breaking on his back, clearly understanding the concept of karma this Asian woman spoke of.
Everyone must take responsibility for their mistakes; it’s not that they won’t be repaid, but the time hasn’t come yet, has it?
Years ago in S Country, he almost killed her, who was innocent. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Now, to lose his daughter in his later years was his retribution.
"Second," Jiayi continued, looking at the profusely sweating Boris. "The person who killed Xiaolei, apart from the actual murderer, there’s someone else."
"Who?" Boris’s facial muscles twitched.
"You," Jiayi said coldly, her dark, paint-like almond eyes fixing on him, "If it weren’t for you insisting on having your daughter be someone else’s mistress, how could she have died so senselessly in a foreign land? The murderer killed Xiaolei, but you, Mr. Boris, were also the one who handed the killer the knife."
Could it really be that he, as a father, had caused the death of his daughter, LO...
Boris felt a pain tugging at his left chest, standing motionless, clutching at his chest and abdomen.
"Brother Yixiao, let’s go," Jiayi said, turning around.
Nie Yixiao glanced disdainfully at the motionless Boris, snorted quietly, and with Lawyer Liu, escorted Jiayi to the car.
After standing in a daze for quite a while, Boris finally regained his composure, but his face looked years older in just a few minutes.
Seeing Nie Yixiao and Miss Chu’s party leave, the assistant standing behind came up to support Boris, "Sir, are you really leaving China?"
After a long while, Boris gritted his teeth, "Book a flight. Return home."
The assistant hesitated for a moment, "Are you not going to take care of Miss’s case?"
How could he not take care of it.
Could the daughter of the Boris family just die so mysteriously and without justice?
No matter whether the killer was Chu Jiayi or someone else, he would certainly not let the killer go!
After some time, Boris seemed to have made up his mind, "Make a call, contact Beiming Hall back home. Ask the Hall Master to come to China and continue the investigation for me."
Though he had to leave China, it did not mean he couldn’t ask someone else for help!
