Chapter 225: The Trial (5)

"Mother!" Anne screamed. She rushed to her side to help her. The lawyers of the team also hurried to help Lily. People on the back rose to their feet to see the drama that was unfolding in front of them. 

"Mother!" Anne shouted once more. "We need to take her to emergency," she said to Hertz with urgency in her eyes. "I want to take her to the hospital. You should ask the judge to stall the proceedings for now." Her plan was to get out of the courtroom along with her mother, gather sympathy from the public and then run away, abscond from this place forever. She looked at Helena with an intense stare and Helena understood her plan. A faint smile came to her lips and she nodded. 

Helena scurried to Lily. She caught her arm and then goaded Hertz to plead the judge to stop the trial immediately.
