Chapter 651 - Sentenced

"So, you did this kind of thing to Mayor Hall?" Stefan asked pensively.

"Yes, we did." Doctor Taylor nodded his head. "Doctor Miller changed his appearance first through surgery first then after that, Mayor Hall was detained here until I came."

"Right, I've heard about a 'fake Mayor Hall' appeared in public a couple of years ago in the news. It became a sensation because the man was sure that he is Mayor Hall but the public only thinks that he is crazy. It turns out that he is the real Mayor Hall after all." Felix said remembering the news that broke out a couple of years ago.

Senator Rizza also thought about it, she even remembers that time when Mayor Hall was making a scandal outside their ancestral house asking to talk to her grandfather. He said that he will prove to him that he is Mayor Hall.

Mayor Hall has been involved with the Paz family. He has been embezzling government funds and her grandfather found out about it. But instead of reporting him, her grandfather promised to protect him. But in return, Mayor Hall has to give him 50% of whatever amount that he would embezzle.

But the Robin Hood Society found out about Mayor Hall's inappropriate dealings and stole from him then later on exposed him. Fortunately, her grandfather has been meticulous when dealing with Mayor Hall that even if Mayor Hall claims that the Paz family is receiving a bribe from him, he doesn't have any evidence against them.

"Wow, I thought after what Mayor Hall has done to President Martin and Madam Victoria and after stealing the Galaxy that belonged to Miss J, you just let it slide. So, where is Mayor Hall right now?" Felix asked with curiosity.

After the humiliation that he gets, he wonders what had become of him.

"He was last spotted in Crocus, working as a fisherman." President Martin said casually.

"But don't worry Senator Rizza, you won't end up as a fisherman," Jacob said when she noticed that Senator Rizza has become paler and sweat beads were visible on her face.

"Being a fisherman is a decent job. I don't think you deserve any decency." Jacob said with a cocked head. He looked at the Senator with a murderous glint in his eyes. But a merciful death is not what she deserves as well. At least not when Jacob is around.

President Martin inhaled deeply. "Okay, this meeting ends here. Tomorrow, we'll commence as planned. We'll meet the knew Rizza Paz."

Senator Rizza snapped back from her daze. She knew that this might be the end of her if she didn't try to appeal. At least she should try. "P-president M-martin...Please, I beg of you. Please spare me." Into everyone's surprise, Senator Rizza fell down on her knees in front of President Martin.

But President Martin just raise a brow at her. "Let's see if you can convince me." President Martin said with a challenging tone.

"I-I...I didn't. It was my fault. I shouldn't have tried to assassinate your daughter. I...I just did it because I thought that she was the one who stole my money and keeps on messing up with me." Senator Rizza said with her head lowered trying hard not to stutter but she still did.

"Are you saying that it should've been me?" President Martin said with a smirk.

"What? No!" Senator Rizza suddenly realized the wrong words that she used.

"It looks like you already became slow-witted Senator Rizza," Jacob said mockingly.

"Jacob..." Jacob raised a brow at her.

"I mean, Chairman Jacob. Please, forgive me." Senator Rizza turned to Jacob still in her bended knees.

"My, what should I do now about it. Didn't anyone warn you not to go against me? And to make your life worse, you dared to assassinate my wife. In front of me? You sure think highly of yourself if you think that killing my wife would make you a legend. As if I am going to let that happen. You don't deserve my mercy, Senator Rizza. Moreso, my forgiveness." Jacob said in an icy tone.

"Well then, you've been sentenced." President Martin said then he stood up.

What? So it was a trial? Senator Rizza's thought was in a total mess.

"I already had Peter prepared a room for you, Senator Rizza. Please rest well as tomorrow is going to be a tough day for you." President Martin said then he was followed by Leo.

His right-hand man Peter together with Arthur will take Senator Rizza to her room in that underground chamber but before that, Doctor Miller gave them some order.

"She will undergo a couple of surgery tomorrow. So please, do not give her anything by mouth after 12 midnight." Doctor Miller ordered as if she was preparing a regular patient for surgery tomorrow.
