Chapter 893
Cassie closed her eyes briefly, then gritted her teeth and said, "Get out."
nbsp;
In the following days, Cassie and Peter ran around every day looking for evidence.
nbsp;
Before they knew it, it was Tuesday. When David came to visit her, he saw her eyes were bloodshot, and her cheeks had grown noticeably thinner. He was deeply distressed. "The trial is tomorrow. Have you found any evidence?"
nbsp;
Cassie nodded, rubbing her tired eyes. "We found some, and there's a chance we could win, but it's not very big."
nbsp;
David's eyes flickered with a hint of something deeper. "What is it? I'm quite curious."
nbsp;
"Let's not talk about it now. You'll find out tomorrow," Cassie said worriedly. "But the chances of winning are slim. After all... the opponent is Joseph. He's never lost. Tomorrow, rather than having the judge declare Spencer innocent, it's more about convincing Joseph. As long as he understands that Spencer was framed, there's a chance to win."
nbsp;
"Not necessarily," David reminded her. "Even if Joseph realizes he might have wronged Spencer, losing would be a blemish on his legal career. Someone as proud as him nbsp;would continue to fight, even knowing he's wrong, just to win."
nbsp;
Cassie was taken aback and smiled bitterly. "You're right. Someone like him has no bottom line."
nbsp;
"But you will win." David suddenly placed his hands gently on her shoulders. "I know you've been busy and tired these days, but I haven't been idle either. I found the car that was used to kidnap Megan, and there are no traces of Spencer on it."
nbsp;
"Are you serious?" Cassie stood up abruptly, her eyes bright with hope.
nbsp;
David nodded and handed her a file folder. "I've had the car examined by experts. They even checked for fingerprints. The only place with Spencer's fingerprints is the trunk."
nbsp;
"That's fantastic." Cassie took the folder, glanced at it, and was overjoyed. "With this, we are sure to win. David, thank you so much. I owe you."
nbsp;
"Don't talk about owing me. My feelings for you make me willing to do anything." David gently held her hands, his eyes filled with affection. "The people you want to protect, I'll protect with you."
nbsp;
Cassie's heart pounded hard.
nbsp;
She had always understood David's feelings for her, but she had always resisted them.
nbsp;
At this moment, Cassie was deeply moved. She should have realized long ago that David was the best person for her. His unwavering support and care over the years, even for Sophia and Oliver, had been evident.
nbsp;
Joseph, on the other hand, had only ever caused her endless pain.
nbsp;
She suddenly felt regret, regret that she had realized this too late.
nbsp;
"I'm sorry, David. I realize now that I was wrong before," Cassie said bitterly. "I shouldn't have approached Joseph again to get back at him, and ended up hurting you repeatedly. I won't do it anymore."
nbsp;
"What do you mean?" David looked up, shocked.
nbsp;
"I used to want Joseph to feel the pain of being abandoned by someone he loved," Cassie said bitterly.
nbsp;
"But I didn't realize that the bond between him and Megan was something no one could change. Even without Megan's hypnosis, Joseph wouldn't have cut ties with her. Eventually, we would have ended up divorced. Now, I truly understand that our divorce wasn't because of the hypnosis; it was because his connection with Megan was too deep. For his entire life, Megan will be his guilt and his pure angel," nbsp;she continued.
