"Mr. Stevens, since you know the law well, I have a question," Corrine spoke calmly, her legs crossed and dressed in Nate's jacket, exuding an air of confidence, as if she were in full control.

For less severe cases, the sentence ranges from three to ten years. If the attempt is thwarted by circumstances beyond the criminal's control, it's considered attempted murder, and the sentence may be reduced." A smirk crept onto his face. “Miss Holland, if you have any more questions, feel free to ask. I'll be happy to answer." At that moment, Andromache's voice rang out, laced with venom. “Miss Holland, are you really planning to accuse them of attempted murder? That's a serious charge. If they're convicted, given their criminal backgrounds, they could be locked up for life."

And instead of feeling remorse, you're trying to shift the blonto us? How can someone as heartless as you even exist?" Nate's eyes narrowed, his gaze searing into the old woman, silencing her in an instant.

Brannon's voice was sharp, cutting through the tension. “Are you accusing them of attempted murder? Do you have any proof? If not-" Nate looked up with a cold stare, his eyes icy, and said softly, “Saul."

"Yes, sir." Saul had been gripping a long black canvas bag ever stepped into the room. Without a word, he unzipped it and flung it onto the floor with a deliberate motion.

A sharp metallic clang rang out-not particularly loud, yet somehow it pierced the air with unsettling clarity. The sound sank into the bones of everyone present, sending an involuntary shudder rippling through the crowd.

"The evidence you requested." Saul's voice was flat, stripped of emotion.
