The Bigshot Married Himself to the Heiress-Chapter 481 - 482: Smelled an Unusual Odor

Although Sabrina Johnson’s trial was abruptly interrupted, the media was extraordinarily excited, as if injected with adrenaline.

Compared to the regular court proceedings, the scene where Sabrina Johnson bit off an ear was too shocking, too visually impactful, and even more newsworthy. They believed that the ratings of newspapers and television stations would increase by several points.

The media wanted to interview Sabrina Johnson. Unfortunately, she was taken away by the court and was unavailable for individual interviews. However, the media did not spare the Johnson Family.

Seeing the media approaching, Walter Klein called the bodyguards to protect the Johnson Family, preventing the journalists from getting close to them.

"President Johnson, what is your opinion on the accident during today’s trial?" 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

"Madam Johnson, it seems Sabrina Johnson has some mental problems. In the past, did she show similar issues?"

Sienna Johnson was taken aback, and a bold thought crossed her mind. What was Sabrina trying to do by causing such a commotion in the courtroom? Could it be...

"President Johnson, we heard that when you were younger, you were frequently bullied by Sabrina, and she even falsely accused you of stealing. Did she ever behave violently towards you in the past?"

Seeing that Sienna did not respond to the media, the other members of the Briggs Family, very tactfully, also chose to stay silent, knowing well how the media could twist their words if they spoke.

Pauline Briggs listened to the reporters’ questions and looked towards her daughter. The fierceness that Sabrina displayed had unnerved her.

Four years ago, when Sienna returned mysteriously, she claimed that Sabrina Johnson and Frederick Stewart wanted to kill her. Pauline didn’t believe it then, but now she did. It seemed there was nothing Sabrina wasn’t capable of doing in this world.

She never imagined that she had raised such an evil woman for all these years.

"Madam Johnson, you raised Sabrina, provided her with a life of luxury, but she has responded with ingratitude. Can you tell us your thoughts on this matter?"

The reporter’s words stabbed at Pauline’s heart. What did she think? She now felt a strong urge to kill Sabrina herself.

However, facing the media, Pauline Briggs maintained her composure, only her eyes reddening.

Sienna stood up and said to the media, "As victims, we hope the law will give us justice! We believe there is still justice in this world, we believe justice will overcome evil, we believe that the wicked will be punished, and we believe the court will give Sabrina Johnson a fair trial."

"President Johnson, do you hope for the death penalty for Sabrina?"

"I’m sorry, please give us some room. My grandmother and mother are not feeling well. Excuse us!" Sienna, supporting her grandmother and shielded by the bodyguards, left the courtroom, got into the car, and departed.

"President Johnson, I’m from the Daily. Would you have time for an interview with us?"

The reporters’ vans followed them for a while but were stopped by the people Adrian Desmond had left behind.

The car was quiet, with everyone deep in their thoughts.

Sabrina Johnson’s case was clear, and the evidence was conclusive. If there were no surprises, the judgment could have been delivered today. However, Sabrina had caused such a scene, which made the Johnson Family suspicious.

Pauline asked with concern, "Sienna, what do you think Sabrina is trying to achieve with her outburst today? I always feel that matters aren’t as simple as they seem... You don’t think there could be any unexpected surprises, do you?"

Even Pauline, with her typically straightforward nature, had sensed something was amiss?

Grandma said, "Whatever trick Sabrina is playing, we in the Johnson Family will not let her get away with it!"

Sienna echoed her, "Absolutely! Regardless of Sabrina’s tricks, we in the Johnson Family will not let her slide! She must pay the price for her actions. She must serve time in prison!"

Pauline thought for a while then said, "Sienna, you said back then that Sabrina and Frederick Stewart wanted to kill you, right? Now, expose her for that too. Let the procuratorate press charges against her. For the evils she has committed, she will have to spend the rest of her life atoning."

"I have no evidence, and the current charges against her are more than enough to put her behind bars for life."

"Didn’t you say that Adrian Desmond saved you? Why can’t we let Adrian testify against Sabrina?"

Sienna looked at Adrian. She had considered accusing Sabrina and Frederick of attempted murder, but if she did, it would inevitably involve Adrian, whose identity she did not want to expose.

"Adrian is my husband. Even if he testified, his testimony wouldn’t necessarily be fully accepted by the court."

"So, she just gets off?" Pauline currently hated Sabrina so much that, if the law allowed, she felt like stabbing her a few times with a dagger to personally avenge her late husband.

"No matter what trick she’s playing, she won’t be able to escape!" Sienna said firmly.

Seeing her daughter’s confidence, Pauline believed her and didn’t say anything more.

...

Upon arriving at the Johnson Family home, Sienna urged Pauline and Grandma to go inside ahead of her, as she herself wasn’t heading in just yet.

"Grandma, you must rest well and eat well. Please don’t dwell on it too much; Sabrina will definitely go to jail!" Seeing her grandmother’s solemn expression and how quiet she’d been on the ride back, Sienna couldn’t help but voice her concern.

Sienna felt very guilty that her grandmother, at such an advanced age, still had to endure so much stress.

"I know. I trust you to handle this," Grandma smiled kindly.

Sienna also smiled at her, and Grandma said, "You’re pregnant now, so take care of yourself too. Don’t overburden yourself."

"I will, Grandma."

Pauline asked, "Will you come back for dinner tonight?"

"You guys eat first; don’t wait for me. I might be back late."

Mr. Leonard drove away. Sienna instructed him to drive to the Blossom Garden Residential Complex in the Old Town District, where she intended to meet Sue White. Sabrina’s dramatic display in the courtroom today had made Sienna sense that something out of the ordinary was happening.

Sabrina’s fierceness in court reeked of desperation. She clearly wasn’t resigned to imprisonment. So, how did she plan to evade legal punishment? What was her scheme?

Master Leland was dead, so he couldn’t help her. Ryan Langston, despite his influence, was an old fox and would never genuinely exert himself for Sabrina...

What on earth was Sabrina plotting?

Sienna couldn’t figure it out.

Adrian softly massaged her furrowed brow with his warm fingers, saying, "Don’t frown anymore, or you’re going to get wrinkles."

"I can’t figure out what Sabrina is planning, and I’m worried. If Sabrina escapes again this time, I’ll be devastated." Unable to make sense of it herself, Sienna sought Adrian’s help.

Adrian didn’t seem concerned. "What else could she be plotting? Of course, she’s trying to find a way to avoid legal punishment!"

"But how is she going to escape?"
