Her leg actually touched his leg.

"So it turns out to be Mr. John. I've also heard that he graduated from our country's prestigious law school. Recently, MMC also wants to select a few people for vacant positions, and I see there’s an opportunity for him to prove himself."

Her eyes smiled like a crescent moon, gorgeous. As she spoke, she placed her foot against his, no longer just brushing past like before, but letting it stay there completely.

Nolan could clearly feel it now. He coldly watched the two women talking, occasionally interjecting a few words. He made no move to remove the soft object touching his foot.

Hellen remained still, never looking at him, yet all the allure in her discussion was on full display before him.

"I knew you'd feel this way, Hellen. As his sister, it's really tough for me. I know you have the ability to help my brother, and I'm truly happy and grateful to you. Wouldn't it mean that at the trial, you'd show some favor to Lawyer Hellen, right?"

The last sentence Grace turned to ask her husband.

"Of course, that’s the right thing to do!"

Nolan gave a brief response but smiled at his wife indulgently as if it was entirely for her. But when Grace turned away, she saw him return to his displeased, cold expression. Clearly, he didn't like it but was still pretending.

Even though he didn't want to, his wife's family had significant power. They raised him up to help their family in legal matters because he was very talented, truly a gifted person.

His wife controlled him very tightly. Nolan's life revolved around court cases, his work, and their home. If they went out, it was always the two of them together.

Even going out to take out the trash, she would go with him; such a life made him feel truly bored.

After saying this, he could feel the soft thing moving under his foot, rubbing back and forth, making him blush. He couldn’t believe she would do that, but looking at the beautiful, alluring girl before him, suddenly he had some improper thoughts.

He had never met anyone as beautiful as Hellen, and she was so fair-skinned. It could be said she was dazzling, and her figure stood out so much in a crowd, very prominent.

"Having Judge Truong's attention is a privilege; Hellen truly should be the one thanking both of you."

Hellen spoke in a sincere tone, without a hint of insincerity. At that moment, Nolan responded to her for the first time, but the content was flattering to his wife.

"Lawyer Hellen, there's no need to be formal. I also want my wife to be happy. Don't take it to heart; we should help each other."

She smiled at the two people in front of her. Grace blushed to her ears, nearly leaning on her husband's shoulder in delight.

She was as proud as her father, enjoying when her husband treated her with love and respect in public. That's why she always accompanied her husband when going out, both to keep him and to assert her authority.
