Voice of Truth

There, I looked at them unfazed. Yet, I kept myself completely composed of my motive.

As we proceed to the property again. I handed the old attorney of Errien. The will and for more concrete evidence.

Yet, we are still waiting for Lexie Errien's parents to get more and more impatient. As I sat there unbothered to claim myself guilt.

When they deserve to be in bars cell. In the middle of the session, Lexie successfully arrived and immediately took a stand.

Their lawyer questioned her identity and mine, then the property.

" I was the witness of the will and handing properties from the lawyer who stands with Mr. Slyve and be the owner without any consent. Yet, Ms. Errien didn't hesitate to give it to him.

Therefore, according to law, Mr. Slyve is obligated to take it. Since it's under his name as for Ms. Errien stated. All that belongs to her is to Mr. Syvle. Except for the garden shop she gave me. " lexis said.

" Lair?!" Errien's stepmother intervenes again.

" You... calling me a liar... such whore to judge my statement ,but not her status as a mistress that only harm my best friend." Lexie said coldly.

" Now... now... Ms. Lexie, " the lawyer said.

"Can you give her mouth wash or a soap to clean her stinky foul mouth? It even gets where I am now." Lexie said unfazed.

"Y-you l-little?!" Her stepmother said.

"There's no use lying in the court. I'm not a idiot nor a complete monkey brain to say something untrue.

Based on if you doubt my skills memorising hand writing. I'm  all familiar with styles and stroke ever since I was always in the library.

I observed and know forgery is better than your mindless mistress Claude." Lexie said, being arrogant.

"Under your testimonial, you claimed that Errien, your best friend?" The lawyer asked.

" Well, I don't know about her family issues,but the fact that I know the reason why she handed it to Hidan Slyve.

Where Errien loved him ever since she was 8. Yet, Her grandmother and Hidan known each other too. " Lexie said

" And you been in librarian? How do you know if it's not forgery?" The lawyer asked.

"As I said, Errien was bullied by others. Yet no one dares to stand up to her. I had my reason why I did stand up for her." Lexie said

"And what is the reason?" The lawyer asked

" Help her... obviously, everyone needs to help someone in need. I didn't force her to be my best friend. Although, she eventually likes to approach me in the library." Lexie said.

"Do you have any evidence that you did become a librarian?" The lawyer asked.

" I have my own witness... including him." She said, pointing at me.

" She's the famous bookworm in the whole campus. And the school holds the records of librarians... why not let them be a witness, too?" I said

"If you are really a librarian, then how will you inspect this note that Mr. Slyve claimed and used to be the evidence of the property and the other accusations he said." The lawyer asked.

There, I handed Lexie the book, and she inspected it like she did in the libraries.

" It's well kept after Errien given it to me. " Lexie said.

" You have an odd way inspecting books." I said

" I agreed with Mr.Slyve." The lawyer said

" Well, the fact the you people don't know the etiquette to see if it's in critical or a imitation.

According to this, the only one handprints here are mine, hidan ,and the indenial parents of Errien Claude now.

Of course,  I don't mind other examining it. Let me warn you all you can't fake my eyes and sense if you dare change this note." Lexie said.

"I never touched the note?!" Her father said

" Oh ... Mr. Claude, if you're  not, then you're not Errien's parent.

This means that according to the legal paper given by the lawyer , her beloved granddaughter Errien and not her son or the father of Errien." I said

" Absurd?!" Her father said stood up.

" Mr. Slyve... you really know how to provoke. Yet, what is evidence to have the right claiming. Mrs. Eri's apartment." Their lawyer asked.

" Grandma...Eri... told me that her grandchilds would be the owner of her property. " I said

"Childs? With that said, does Errien's little brother have the right to claim what his property is apart from being given by his grandmother. " Their lawyer said

" Wrong, Grandma never acknowledged nor Errien her little brother. Yet, despite that, she gave the other property, but the apartment.

So, tell me even if it's just an apartment to be demolished after the second ownered dies. It is under her name now Her little brother." I said

" Do you have any evidence?" Their lawyer asked.

There, the old lawyer pat my shoulder and stood up.

" I can provide the real Mrs. Eri's  whole will and to be read it. I can rest assured you that this is in a safe place and never forgered.

I can also hand it to Ms. Lexie provides another of her piece handwriting." The lawyer said, handing it to lexie.

As Lexie looked at it, her Sharped-toungueness got us through.

" Well, this is real, and I might say Mrs. Eri's condition of writing is shaky and full of stops." she said.

"Because Mrs. Eri has a condition in her hand that she kept from her granddaughter and son. Yet, I'm surprised you can tell... Can you read it, Ms. Lexie." The lawyer said.
