The judge finally announced, "Mrs. Zonder's motive for murder is established!"

Since Hiroshi had no fatal injuries, Mrs. Zonder was sentenced to three years in prison.

The unparalleled Finn had electrified everyone in court, even Yumi and Jack were shocked.

They were very curious about where Jay had found such an outstanding young lawyer. They thought how great it would be if they could use Finn for their own use. He was like a tiger with wings. However, he merely disappointed them.

After the court adjourned, Finn walked straight to Jay.

"President Ares, your legs-"

"They're fine," Jay said.

"Who did it?" Finn clenched his fists and asked Storm angrily.

Storm shot a look at Jack and pointed out, "President Ares didn't say that he wasn't going to get his revenge. It's just not the right time yet."

Finn gritted his teeth. His gentle and harmless appearance disappeared. He suddenly had a dark aura as if he was about to destroy the world. "Okay. When it's time, please avenge him for me. Since he has injured both of President Ares' legs. I'll crush all of his bones so that he'll have no quality of life."

Jack walked toward the exit with a straight face.

When Madam Ares passed by Jay, he suddenly stopped her. "Mother."

Madam Ares stopped in her steps.

Jay said, "It's a pity that you used Mrs. Zonder in such a hurry."

Madam Ares bit her lip and her face was slightly pale. "What do you mean?"

Finn smiled. "You were too anxious to protect Sera and didn't get to hear what I was going to say. I was going to say that when Hiroshi was killed, he was not tied up."

Madam Ares' face went pale and green.

Finn wheeled Jay away.

Josie walked to her mother with tears in her eyes. She was disappointed with her mother and said, "I finally figured out why my own mother instigated me to frame Sis Angeline. You wanted to use me to get rid of Sera's number one rival for Jay's love."

"Josie, it's not like that-" Madam Ares said weakly.

"You're very kind to Sera," Josie said sourly.

After she said that, she left.

At the entrance of the court, there was a long metal tray that was filled with red hot coals.

It attracted a group of onlookers.

When Jay and the others came out, they saw the unpleasant scene.

Angeline looked at Zayne who was the one who did everything. She yelled fiercely, "Zayne, what the hell are you doing?"

Zayne stopped Angeline and said somewhat irritatedly, "You were in prison for a few days and you're full of bad juju. I worked hard to help prepare this fire pit for you. You'll be able to get rid of your bad luck by jumping over it."

Angeline looked at the nearly two-meter-long fire pit. She felt like weeping but had no tears. "Don't you know that my furthest long jump record is only 1.8 meters? Why would you let me jump into the fire pit?" Zayne looked at Jay and groaned. "You couldn't be a little taller? My sister's long jump record goal when she was a child was to take your height as the ultimate goal. If you were a little taller, she would've been able to jump over this fire pit today."

Jay was speechless.

'Are these two actually idiots?'

"Jump sideways."

Zayne suddenly brightened up. "Yes. Jump sideways. Angel, jump quickly. I've prepared this fire pit for you but it'll be a difficult feat."

Angeline looked at the giggly crowd onlookers. She had the most embarrassing smile.

"Can I not do such an embarrassing thing?" Angeline begged Jay for mercy.

Jay said, "You're seriously unlucky. Go ahead, jump!"

Angeline was dumbfounded. "Seriously? Are you really going to make me jump? This is just a superstition. How can it actually ward off evil spirits?"

Zayne was grateful for Jay's support. He said, "Great minds think alike, Master Ares."

Angeline could not talk herself out of it, so she had no choice but to jump over the fire pit begrudgingly.

Zayne smiled and took her hand. He said, "Great. Now that you've jumped over the fire pit, you can go home with me."
