My CEO Husband Has Some Issues-Chapter 1171 - 1172: Taking Advantage of Seniority

Jiang Meiqi also stood up emotionally and shouted loudly, "It was Rong Yan who gave you money; only after taking her money did you come to slander Wei."

Old Madame Jiang, not to be outdone, despite her advanced age, also stood up. Leaning on her age and speaking irresponsibly, she said, "What can these witnesses prove? Tomorrow, I can also find a few people to say that Rong Yan hired someone to murder me. Would she then be arrested for attempted murder? We do not recognize such witnesses. You are saying that Wei drugged someone to gang-rape that little..."

She almost blurted out "bastard" but caught herself, remembering they were in court with reporters present. She forcibly held back, her old face plastered with makeup making her look difficult to deal with, and said harshly, "If you say that Wei has done it, then let Rong Yan come out. Let her identify in front of everyone that Wei had men force themselves on her."

Being of such an age, with snow-white hair, people generally show respect for someone so old unconsciously; however, as soon as she opened her mouth, people were shocked.

This old lady was worse than a shrew.

Nick, sitting at the plaintiff’s bench, calmly interjected, "Old Madame Jiang, allow me to remind you once more. I just made it very clear that our victim did not let Miss Rong Weiwei succeed. What you just said could lead to us suing you for defamation."

"You, a foreigner, why interfere in our affairs? Seeing you, with the face of a pretty boy, what is your relationship with Rong Yan? Coming here to defend her. Doesn’t she already have a man? Yet, she is ambiguous with other men. Hmph, indeed, she was trouble since childhood, even more so when grown. Who knows how many men she’s hidden behind Mr. Li of Li Group; one after another keeps showing up," railed Old Madame Jiang, believing no one in attendance would dare confront her because of her age, brazenly spewing slander.

Nick looked at her coldly and clarified sternly, "I am here at the behest of Mr. Li to represent Miss Rong at this trial. I urge you to watch your language."

Seizing what she thought was an advantage, Old Madame Jiang immediately said to the reporters behind her, "See, he admitted it. They were called here by Rong Yan’s sugar daddy, all to frame Weiwei. Quick, capture this! Let everyone see how Rong Yan abuses her power to frame her own sister."

"Relative of the defendant, please sit down!" The judge struck the gavel, calling for silence.

Yet Old Madame Jiang continued her vexatious tirade, hands on her hips, glaring at the officials above, "I am just speaking a few truths. Why can’t I speak? I don’t even have the right to speak anymore? Since that’s the case, you might as well just lock up our Weiwei; why even pretend to follow the legal process? If you really want to follow the legal process, our Weiwei is innocent. Rong Yan herself said that she wasn’t harassed by these few hoodlums. Instead, it was my poor Weiwei who was humiliated by them at her instigation and ended up pregnant in detention. Later, the child in her stomach mysteriously miscarried. You ignore such a murderer and prosecute the real victim instead? Have you no shame?"

The judge, never having been insulted like this before, darkened his expression and instructed the staff, "The defendant’s family member is overtly emotional and using excessive language. According to the rules, take her next door to cool down."

"Yes."

Two staff members rose, ignoring Old Madame Jiang’s tantrums on the floor. They firmly lifted her and took her away.
