Chapter 743
This was genuinely ironic. Matthew's indulgence toward Melanie would leave him homeless. He wouldn't have ended up in this situation if he had a trace of reason.
Adrian leaned back in his chair indifferently. "This is the best outcome under the circumstances, assuming we can obtain the evidence I mentioned and turn the tide. Otherwise, these major projects can make him rot in jail."
"I'll do my best to find a way, and I hope you will do everything in your power to maintain your undefeated record. As for the rest, we can only leave it to fate. There's little more I can do," I sighed. "Ms. Chloe, you're the most charming woman I've ever met. What you've achieved in this matter truly impresses me. It's one of the reasons I'm willing to cooperate with you." Adrian praised me. "I'm doing this for Grace. Since I've promised her, I can't go back on my word. Besides, he didn't know what Melanie was doing and was framed. I couldn't just do nothing about it.
"Oh, by the way, let me share some good news with you." I smiled at Adrian. "There's an expansion in the construction of Bourdamun, focusing on creating a grand city in Bourdamun according to national standards."
Adrian immediately grinned, "It seems my consultation fee needs to be raised." "As long as we continue collaborating, that's not a problem," I replied cheerfully. "I'm happy to follow." Adrian extended his hand, and we shook hands.
Leaving the law firm, I pondered the challenging requirements Adrian had presented. They were all high-difficulty pieces of evidence. Obtaining these proofs would deliver a blow to Liora, leaving her with no room to maneuver. I still had a long way to go.
While I was lost in my thoughts, my phone rang, and I answered it on speaker. "Hello."
"Chlo, where are you?" It was Lauren calling.
"I just came out of Adrian's office. What's up?" I asked.
"What happened with Ava yesterday?" she asked anxiously.
"How did you know?" I asked, "I haven't had a chance to tell you."
I explained as I drove, "The girls were beaten up at the kindergarten. A group of boys attacked our two girls."
"You're saying it so casually. How's Ava?"
"It's not a big deal. They just got bruises and scratches on their faces." I sighed, "How did you find out?"
"How did I find out? The caretaker
saw you taking the kids to the
hospital yesterday. But she forgot to tell me and only remembered today. Why didn't you tell me? How serious is it? Why were they attacked? And it was by a group of boys?"
"It's not serious. The doctor prescribed a scar ointment, so it's nothing to worry about." I chuckled, "What could telling you do? Are you going to fight them? The principal just apologized to me. Atlas didn't let the kids go to the kindergarten today."
"How are you handling it? You can't just let it go, right? What's the
cause? Lauren was upset for net
and bearing about the assault likely set her off.
