Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Chapter 692: 226: Sentenced to death!_5
 

As soon as the words were spoken, thunderous applause erupted at the scene.

Deafening.

Good and evil will always be repaid!

Mrs. Thompson was so excited that she threw away her cane.

Wonderful!

She had been waiting for this day.

Mary Perryne’s eyes reddened slightly.

After all, Sylvia Thompson was raised by her own hands. She could have had a better future, but alas, her talents were ultimately not used for good.

She ruined herself.

“Silence!” The judge spoke again, and the crowd quieted down. “Now, hear the verdict announcement, court is adjourned, and the defendant Sophie Cooper is taken out of the courtroom!”

Sylvia Thompson was taken out of the court under police custody, one on each side.

She couldn’t muster any strength, and her entire body was propped up by the two police officers.

She was very upset.

Death penalty to be executed immediately.

These words occupied her mind.

There wasn’t a trace of color on her face, so pale that it was frightening.

Sylvia Thompson was not ignorant of the law; she knew that the immediate execution of the death penalty would be carried out within seven days after its announcement.

In other words, she had less than seven days to live.

Soon, the prison would prepare her last meal.

She was terrified.

Always priding herself as superior to others, Sylvia Thompson had only one thought at this moment.

To survive.

As long as she could survive, she was willing to pay any price for it.

She wanted to run.

But her feet were shackled by the heavy chains.

No one can accept death calmly when they are born a human being.

Especially for someone like Sylvia Thompson, who can’t see a shred of hope.

People watching the live broadcast were dumbfounded.

No one had expected Sylvia Thompson to be the real murderer.

[I feel like I just watched a suspense drama!]

[Sylvia Thompson, no, Sophie Cooper’s methods are so clever! My God, I really didn’t expect her to be the murderer!]

[I bet her best friend didn’t expect it either! Her best friend is actually the most innocent one; not only did she almost become Sylvia’s accomplice, but she also suffered aftereffects due to her, and most importantly, she spent so much time under the same roof with this murderer! It’s so scary to think about, giving me goosebumps.]

[This is even more thrilling than a Net fly suspense drama.]

[Like mother, like daughter!]

[I swear, I will never randomly judge people on the Internet again. I almost became Sophie Cooper’s accomplice. I apologize to everyone here!]

[I want to apologize, too.]

[It’s so gratifying. I think the death penalty is too quick for Sophie Cooper. She should taste all the flavors of despair before letting her die!]

[Sylvia Thompson is really smart and has strong anti-detection skills, but it’s a pity that she used her good brain for illegal crimes.]

[I suddenly feel that the police in Capital City are so amazing! They were able to uncover such a convoluted truth, as well as the surveillance footage. I heard that the storage card of the surveillance camera at Maureen Fitzell’s house was broken, and it was the police who restored it!]

[Today is another day of admiring the Capital City police.]

[Yes, I have insider information! I heard that the reason the police could obtain all the evidence so quickly and restore the storage card was because an all-capable Boss dropped in!]

[Really?]

[It’s true! I have a cousin who works in the police station. She didn’t reveal much information, but she said at first everyone underestimated the Boss, thinking he was pretending to be awesome. But later they were directly conquered by the Boss’s abilities! Now every one of them in the police station is the Boss’s little fan!]

[Can I have more information about the Boss?]

[Boss is so awesome!]

[Did your cousin say how old the Boss is? Does he have a girlfriend? Is he handsome?]

[The Boss might not necessarily be male, right?]

[Although the Boss might not necessarily be male, he definitely isn’t female.]

[Why don’t I have a cousin who works at the police station!]

[What a coincidence! I also have a cousin who works at the police station. She said that they even awarded the Boss with the Best Detective Award. She didn’t say the Boss’s name but mentioned the codename ‘S’. In any case, he was quite amazing. Not only did he have a strong detection ability, but he was also knowledgeable in forensic medicine and dissection. Many major breakthroughs in this case came from Boss!]

For a moment, the barrage turned into a chat area, with everyone discussing who the mysterious Boss S was.

Edward Thompson, wearing a mask and sunglasses, arrived at the underground parking lot.

He was going to wait here for Mrs. Thompson and Mary Perryne.

Sure enough.

A few minutes later, footsteps could be heard in the air.

“Grandma, Mom.”

Upon seeing them, Edward Thompson straightened up and removed his sunglasses and mask.
