Love You Till the End
Chapter 1190 - 1188: Shi Mei vs. Shi Keke
Before the trial started, Shi Keke and Chen Shijin reviewed the previously submitted evidence materials and defense arguments.
According to regulations, anyone who is too busy or unsuitable to appear can fully authorize a lawyer to attend the lawsuit, but divorce cases are an exception, so although Qian Hao was somewhat impatient, he didn’t dare leave midway.
After the trial began, Shi Keke first presented and provided evidence to the court, and when it was time for cross-examination, she asked Qian Hao a question: "Mr. Qian, could you please tell me what you were doing at 6:20 PM on July 18th this year?"
Upon hearing the question, Qian Hao answered immediately: "Having dinner with clients."
It had been a month since July 18th, yet Qian Hao could provide an answer without hesitation, causing doubt among those present.
"Please be honest." Shi Keke spoke.
"I was indeed on a business trip out of town on July 18th, and I am not lying." Qian Hao said calmly.
"The court is a fair and open place, do not underestimate the court." In court, Shi Keke was no longer her usual amicable self, and every word she spoke carried an aggressive aura.
"Objection." Chen Shijin stood up and refuted Shi Keke’s statement: "Lawyer Shi, what you are doing is a personal attack on my client, please mind your language."
Shi Keke responded calmly: "I believe my words are entirely appropriate. I suggest Lawyer Chen read the court rules before protesting. You only have the right to object to logical inferences related to the case or illogical inferences not related to the case."
The judge knocked the gavel at this moment: "Objection overruled, the prosecution lawyer may continue speaking."
"Mr. Qian, could you please tell me where you were on July 18th this year?" Shi Keke asked again with a slight modification to her previous question.
"Having dinner with clients." Qian Hao answered.
"Mr. Qian, please pay attention to my question, I asked: Where were you on July 18th this year?" Shi Keke repeated.
Qian Hao’s expression changed, but he didn’t believe Chen Shijin would lose this case, so he still answered confidently: "I was abroad inspecting a new project, after the inspection, I went to have dinner with a few clients. My assistant and my company’s employees can attest to this."
"You’re lying." Shi Keke calmly countered and then looked towards the front: "Your Honor, I request to play Evidence One in court."
"Granted."
Evidence One was obtained by Shi Keke an hour before going to court, and it was indeed powerful. Not only could it prove Qian Hao was lying, but it also showed he had an affair during his marriage with another woman.
Shi Keke got this evidence from a journalist friend, it was a short video only thirty seconds long. In the video, a man and woman are lying naked on a bed, although mosaics were applied, their faces can still be seen clearly.
The man is today’s defendant, Qian Hao, and the woman is Zhao E’s close friend, Zhao Shanshan. According to the video, the two engaged in an inappropriate sexual relationship.
In the video, Zhao Shanshan mentioned: "Today is July 18th, in three days it will be my birthday. Darling, what do you plan to give me?"
Qian Hao said: "I plan to gift you the presidential suite we stayed in tonight, so we can meet here often. This is the largest hotel in Du City, buying a suite costs at least a million, how is it, baby? Do you like it?"
