Digging His Grave Chapter 9
A month later, the court verdict was handed down.For the crimes of intentional assault and money laundering through corporate embezzlement, Jacob was sentenced to fifteen years in prison.On top of that, his personal assets were confiscated, leaving him completely penniless.Because he couldn’t come up with the money to compensate for the company's losses, all the real estate and luxury cars under his name, along with that marital home hiding Sienna’s memorial photo, were put up for forced court auction.I heard that on the day he was transported to prison, he lost it. He kept muttering endlessly about his company and his son, telling anyone he ran into.His mother, Debbie, suffered a stroke from all the commotion in court that day. Having lost her source of income, she was dumped into a cheap nursing home. Paralyzed in bed, she was left with cold meals every day, forgotten and reliant on minimal assistance.As for Taylor? Though she survived the severe hemorrhaging from her mis

Taylor was carried out on a stretcher, leaving a long trail of blood behind her.Debbie, on the other hand, was pinned down by the bailiffs and put in handcuffs for intentional assault, scaring her so badly that she ended up wetting her pants.The courtroom finally returned to order, though the faint metallic smell of blood still lingered in the air. Judge Ellis sat with a dark expression, preparing to read the verdict, when right at that moment, the heavy courtroom doors swung open once again.Several uniformed police officers strode inside. Officer Sheppard, who was leading the group, held an arrest warrant in his hand.“Who is Jacob Graham?” Officer Sheppard's voice boomed across the room.Jacob sat slumped in his chair, raising his head like a machine. “I am…”The officer walked right up to him and flashed his badge.“We received a report for your arrest along with concrete evidence. You are suspected of hiring someone to intentionally assault Ms. Lila Powell five years ago,

“I’m not divorcing! I’m not divorcing!”Jacob suddenly dropped to his knees, reaching out in desperation to grab my leg.“Lila, honey, please forgive me! For the sake of our years together, please don't do this to me! I can’t live without the company!”I took a step back in disgust, and the bailiffs immediately stepped forward, pinning him down firmly.Right at that moment, a sharp, furious scream erupted from the gallery.Jacob’s mother, Debbie Ryan, who had fainted earlier, had somehow woken up. She charged straight at Taylor like a madwoman.“You leech! You destroyed everything! If you hadn’t insisted on marriage, how could my son have ended up like this?!”Debbie completely lost her mind. She grabbed Taylor by the hair and landed a brutal smack straight across her face.The crisp sound of the slap echoed through the entire courtroom. Half of Taylor’s face swelled up instantly, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth.Knowing that Jacob was about to become a penniless

“Order! Order in the court!”Judge Ellis slammed the gavel over a dozen times before barely managing to quell the chaos in the room.Jacob’s lawyer, Mr. Abraham, was drenched in cold sweat, not even daring to glance at his own client.With things reaching this point, the emotional card was utterly destroyed. Jacob could only cling to the only thing he had left—his financial interests.He snapped his head up, his eyes bloodshot as he glared at me, roaring at the top of his lungs. “Fine! Lila, you win on being ruthless! You went ahead and dug up every last detail of my past! But so what? The illegitimate son, Sienna, all of that happened before our marriage!“The fact remains that you transferred eight hundred thousand dollars to Dan during our marriage! You are the one who concealed and transferred our marital property!”He gritted his teeth, a twisted look of triumph breaking out on his crazy face.“Let me tell you, even if my reputation is ruined, don't even dream of taking a s

The courtroom plunged into absolute silence, with only Dan’s crisp words echoing through the air.Jacob's entire body stiffened. He stared dead into Dan’s face, the spitting image of his own younger self. His lips trembled, but he couldn’t squeeze out a single word for the longest time.Judge Ellis frowned deeply and banged the gavel. “Witness, please observe courtroom decorum and state your identity!”Dan let out a bitter laugh. He pulled a neatly folded DNA test report from his pocket and handed it to the bailiff with both hands.“Your Honor, my name is Dan Barnes. I am twenty-one years old. I am the illegitimate son that the plaintiff, Jacob Graham, left behind twenty-one years ago when he was living in Lancre Town.”The entire room erupted into gasps, and the gallery immediately burst into excited whispers.“An illegitimate son? Twenty-one years old? Isn't that even earlier than his dead first love?”“Holy crap, not only did this guy ruin his wife and kill his own baby, but

Jacob instantly realized he’d slipped up, his eyes darting away nervously.“Jacob, stop talking.” Taylor quickly grabbed his arm. I shoved her aside and lunged straight toward him, my voice trembling as I asked, “What happened back then… was that you?”Taylor stumbled from my push and almost lost her footing, clutching her stomach with a scream.Jacob panicked, grabbing me tightly by the collar. “Are you crazy?! She’s pregnant!”I glared at him in pure hatred. “Tell me the truth!”The veins on his neck bulged as he completely lost his composure.“Yes! I was the one who told the doctors to take out your uterus! If you hadn’t used Sienna’s death to force your way into my life, what would you even be? You were never worthy of replacing her, let alone starting a family with me!“And now you want to kill the baby in Taylor’s belly too? Lila, a woman like you doesn’t deserve to have children!”Looking at his twisted face, I realized he had become a complete stranger.I had slept b
