This time Sayaka did not oppose the accusation against her. She remained silent after Akira spoke up. No one knew if her expression was a sign of her guilt or if she was just shocked at the unexpected words from her daughter.
For a long moment, no one spoke.
If Kazuo had not been too shocked at the revelations made during the entire session, he would have risen to scold Akira and defend his mother. However, nothing had worked in his favour since Akira began speaking.
Therefore, he chose to remain quiet.
As for the rest, they had always been fence-sitters. They would only defend people if they were sure that it would be in their best interests. Since Sayaka had not expressed her stance, they did not dare to do anything that would expose them to unfavourable circumstances.
"I will assume that your silence is an admission of guilt, mommy dearest." Akira lifted a brow.
