Chris testifies that Hong Hai was
the one who killed Jessie. Denying this, Hong Hai claims Chris
often asked Jessie for money and was chases away from the restaurant. Yabin testifies that Hong Hai was at home the afternoon Jessie died. As there is no evidence to prove Hong Hai’s guilt, Paul has to release him. Hong Hai admits to Yabin that he killed Jessie, to stop her from extorting money from him. The Hongs decide to sell their business and leave the country. Zhongxian grabs the opportunity to buy it cheaply and re-sell it to a Chinese company for a huge profit.

(Source: 8 Days) 目击证人Chris指证洪海是杀害Jessie的真凶。洪海矢口否认,反指Chris因为常常来餐馆找Jessie要钱,被其轰走,因此怀恨在心故意诬蔑他。加上他有雅斌当时间证人。若其在证据不足之下,只好把洪海放了。兄妹俩担心迟早东窗事发,决定把三间厨御卖掉,拿了钱逃到澳洲去。仲贤趁机杀价,以低于市场价的一半顶下洪海的三间餐馆,再把餐馆转卖给别人,一转手之间,就让仲贤赚进了几百万。 凤仪终想通感情的事是不能勉强的,认为阿哲在各方面的条件都要比增土好很多,对曦怡更是情深一片,鼓励曦怡不要错过机会,应该接受阿哲的追求。曦怡心中仍难以取舍。 某金庄被劫,若其负责调查此案时,从金庄的闭路电视里看到雅斌在金庄购买首饰,日期正是Jessie被杀的那天下午,而雅斌之前所作的口供(指案发当天,她和洪海一直都在家里没出去过),根本就是谎言。若其握有了证据,立刻采取行动,安排将洪海兄妹从澳洲引度回来。洪海兄妹在证据确凿之下,只好认罪。奇才因而获得释放。 奇才走出了监狱,没见到有人来接他,感慨万千,为自己的所做所为感到羞愧不已。奇才带着一颗赎罪的心,来到贾家,跪求贾母的原谅。贾母原谅了奇才,愿意把他当一家人看待。奇才感激落泪,问起老婆孩子,获知玉其入狱,增悦已离家多时。奇才晴天霹雳,感叹狱中数月,人事已非。 增悦购物回来,见到奇才站在门口,大感震惊。 (Source: Mediacorp Website) |
