My wife and my first love had been secretly plotting all along just for my fortune novel

6 O Q x 85 % This time , the comments completely exploded .

Some cursed the judge , some cursed me .

Someone even opened a channel for a public vote .

Yes , if the audience questions the verdict in the Court of Justice , a public vote can be initiated .

In just a few seconds , the votes declaring me guilty reached 26 % .

If it reaches 60 % , I could be convicted by the audience .

Lily shot me a challenging look .

At this point , there was no need for her to keep pretending .

The judge ignored this and continued to ask Lily for evidence .

Lily held her head high and submitted the final piece of evidence .

This segment was accusing me of being petty and selfish .

It showed Lily and me planning a vacation to the Maldives during the holiday .

However , when we were about to leave , Ryan showed up with his suitcase .

My face immediately darkened .

Ryan smiled playfully at me and said , Im here to take photos for you guys .

Professional vacation photography is so expensive these days .

Dont worry , brother in law , Ill cover all my own travel expenses .

But Lily quickly refused , How can we let you pay for your own expenses when youre helping us take photos ? We should at least cover your costs , right honey ? She tugged at my sleeve as she said this .

I yanked my arm away from Lily and snapped back , If you have too much money to spend , why dont you just donate it ? This is your friend , why should I pay for him ? Lily was stunned .

She looked at me helpless , on the verge of tears .

Honey were married Arent my friends your friends too ? .

15:38 Sat , Mar 22 ( 85 % Honey , were married .

Arent my friends your friends too ? I sneered , Dont make me sick .

Is there such a thing as pure friendship between men and women ? I stormed off , leaving the two of them in an awkward situation .

After the video played , the judge still said , For the third charge of being petty and selfish , the defendant is found not guilty .

As he spoke , the vote count on the big screen started rolling , reaching 58 % .

This meant that if it continued to rise , I could be convicted without the judges verdict .

[ Who says theres no pure friendship between men and women ? Jack must have a dirty mind to see everything as impure ! ] [ Even if theyre just friends , you should still pay for the photography , right ? How can Jack be so selfish that he doesnt want to spend a penny ? Why dont you just die poor ? ] [ If you cant tolerate your wife having friends , why dont you just tie her to your belt ? Disgusting scumbag , stingy bastard , petty man ! ] More and more people in the comments were siding with L

ily .

Lily was now triumphant .

Wanting to speed up the voting process , she directly said to me , Honey , I know you blame me .

I wont quibble about you bribing the judge behind my back .

All I ask for is your undivided attention and love and for you to allow me to have friends freely .

We can still continue our life together .

Become SVIP ! Read all SVIP stories I was thoroughly disgusted by Lilys pretense .

Even though I knew she was deliberately trying to provoke me to anger the crowd , I still couldnt control my emotions .

I retorted using the words from the recent comments : You see filth in everything because your own heart is dirty .

Did you see me bribing the judge ? As for you , after doing so many despicable things , arent you afraid of karma ? Lily clearly hadnt expected me to confront her directly , but she had achieved her goal .

After all , the vote count was still rolling , already reaching 59,9 % .

< 15:39 Sat , Mar 22 Lily didnt say anything , just retreated to her seat and raised an eyebrow at me .

D * [ If you have the guts to say such things , why dont you have the guts to not do those things ? If youre really brave , show us evidence to crush us ! ] [ I think its impossible for such a beast to have any evidence .

If theres a twist to this story , Ill admit Im blind .

] 85 % [ Brothers , lets go ! Dont waste time , lets be bold and finish early .

Lets convict this beast on the spot and clear Lilys name ! ] Perhaps because quite a few people wanted to see a twist , the vote count stopped changing .

I nodded to the judge , who waved his hand , signaling the staff to put the trial helmet on me .

When the helmet was put on , a massive electric current passed through every nerve in my body , causing me to collapse in pain .

I finally understood why no one had dared to set foot in this place for fifty years .

Being falsely accused is unpleasant , but the method of proving ones innocence is even more painful .

Regarding what they said earlier about Lily always showering first just to keep me from getting cold , I cleared my throat and said : It takes Lily at least an hour to shower , and the water is always cold when shes done , even in winter .

What you call Lilys love for me is just her not wanting to lose out .

The crowd was shocked but still scoffed .

[ You can make up any lies , is this all you have to prove your innocence ? ] [ It seems Jack cant produce any evidence against Lily , so hes just talking nonsense .

] I laughed coldly in my heart .

It really was a waste of breath trying to explain to these people .
