Liam emphasized the word "another" and made the way the crowd looked at Laura change again.Liam had been doing research for a while after he had graduated. He had also shared his experience. This meant that a lot of the University of Empfield's students recognized him."Isn't that Liam? Do you know this girl, Liam?""I was wondering if there was a misunderstanding in this matter, but when Liam used the word 'another', I think I know what's going on now.""Tut, tut, tut. Girls nowadays really don't know how to respect themselves. They even play around with other people's feelings. From what Liam had just said, it sounds like she used to be a student at this university as well. I can't believe the university would take her in!"The people in the crowd who had been speaking up for Laura all turned on her after Liam had appeared.Liam deliberately walked closer to Laura and shortened the distance between them. Nicole looked at such a scene from not far away and quickly took a few pi
A man in black walked through the crowd and towards Laura.He had a cold expression on his face and his dark eyes were fixed on Liam. It was as if a storm was coming.Behind the man, was another man in glasses.Chris walked towards Laura."How come you're here?" Laura was still wondering if Chris had arrived at the school gates. She didn't expect him to have come inside the campus.He looked at the woman in front of him. He reached out and caressed Laura's hair."I'm here to pick you up."When faced with Laura, Chris would always have a gentle expression on his face. However, when he turned to look at the crowd, his face turned cold. "Since you're going to help your classmate, then I'd suggest you do so properly."As Chris finished speaking, he nodded at the man with glasses behind him.Some people in the crowd recognized him."Hey, isn't that Kieran Somerfield, the top lawyer at Empfield's best law firm?""Oh my god! Isn't Kieran employed by the Jacobs Group as a legal advi
Kieran's words caused the people who wanted to sneak away to freeze.Their faces changed and then looked at the boy who proposed to Laura."What privacy are you talking about? Just show the chat history to us.""That's right. Show the chat history to Mr. Somerfield and let everyone know what kind of person that woman is.""I don't want to be detained. Show the chat history to everyone."The students all wanted the boy to show everyone the chat history, but the boy didn't move. Seeing this, the faces of the students who humiliated Laura all changed."What's going on? You weren't lying to us, were you?""Are you going to show it to us or not? If you're not going to show us your chat history, you can just show us the transaction history of your bank account. Don't tell us that you're a liar!"The words of the people in the crowd and what Kieran had just said made the boy break into a cold sweat. The boy's real name was Aron."Alright, alright. I'll show it to you guys."Aron too
Laura wasn't a saint. She wasn't going to let someone who had humiliated her, got in her way and slandered her off so easily. Saying sorry just wouldn't cut it."Okay." Kieran didn't have any problems with that.If Laura wanted to forgive the people around her, Kieran wouldn't say anything either.If Laura said that she wanted to hold them responsible, then Kieran would definitely do whatever he could to hold these people responsible for what they had done.Kieran went to make a phone call and contacted his assistant.After hanging up, Kieran looked at the students around them. "Well, guys, just wait for your summons by the court."The faces of everyone around them changed.Liam gritted his teeth. "Laura, are you serious? It's only a small matter and you're going to go to court? They are all your schoolmates."Laura looked at Liam with cold eyes. "Then how about you stand there and let them humiliate you for the same amount of time? If you're willing to do so, I won't sue them.
Laura and Chris soon arrived back home.Kieran was very efficient when doing his job. The court soon accepted the case.In court, Aron showed the transaction history and said that he was told to do this by Liam and Nicole.However, only a transaction history didn't mean anything. Nicole and Liam didn't admit to what they had done. This caused Aron's face to turn red from anger.The students in the crowd all realized that they had been tricked and they all looked at Aron, Liam, and Nicole angrily.Due to the fact that Aron couldn't provide enough evidence, Liam and Nicole couldn't be sued.Nicole had come to court and had brought a lawyer with her as well. However, she looked like she was proud of herself and was at ease. She wasn't scared at all.When the judge announced the final sentence, Nicole didn't show up either. Liam showed up, but he didn't try to slander Laura. Throughout the case, Nicole had no evidence of being involved, so she wasn't punished at all. Liam was just f
Kieran had always had a good relationship with Chris. A few years ago, Kieran had been young and aggressive. He performed really well in lawsuits but offended quite a lot of people. They were all taken care of by Chris. Otherwise, he wouldn't be alive right now.He didn't expect Chris to ask him about the lawyer fee.'Is he planning on paying me?' wondered Kieran.With that thought in mind, his face darkened."Mr. Jacobs, what's the meaning of this? Are you serious about this?" Kieran texted back."It's not what you think. My wife wants to pay you." Chris typed his reply.Chris knew that Laura didn't like owing other people favors.Kieran had guessed Laura's identity, but when he saw Chris's message, he was still shocked."You're married?"He had thought Laura was Chris's girlfriend, but he didn't expect Laura to be Chris's wife."Yeah."One simple word caused Kieran to be even more worked up."When did you get married? Was it a secret marriage?""Yes. So how much is your
'No wonder he looks like Madam Jacobs,' thought Laura."Greetings, Granduncle." Laura greeted Charlie.Charlie nodded and sized Laura up and down with his sharp eyes."Young lady, you look quite young. You're about the same age as Nicole, right?" he asked.Laura didn't know Nicole's age and she wasn't interested either.She then said with a smile, "You're here for Chris, right? He works at the Jacobs Group. I'll give him a call."Charlie shook his head and stopped what Laura was doing. "I'm not here for him. I'm here, especially for you."Laura felt a little confused. 'Why is he here for me?'She placed her phone down and looked at Charlie with a calm gaze. She waited for Charlie to continue.Charlie was observing Laura's attitude. Seeing that she was neither humble nor arrogant and was very calm, he squinted his eyes.'It looks like she's a smart person. No wonder Nicole suffered a loss in her hands,' thought Charlie."Nicole had been spoilt, but she is still a kind girl an
Charlie sneered at Laura's words.He didn't believe that Laura would drive him out with force.That would be outrageous."I am willing to leave if you're willing to let Nicole out."Nicole was only sentenced to two weeks of detention, but this meant that Charlie would have to worry about her for two weeks.She had never suffered ever since she was born. The food in the detention center would be nowhere near as good as the food at home either. The bed would be worse as well.Such a thought made Charlie's heart ache.According to what Nicole had told him, Charlie thought that Chris wasn't treating her badly, but Laura didn't like her at all. She even said that Laura had treated her badly ever since the first day she arrived. She didn't know her way around Empfield and asked Laura to help her get some food, but Laura refused.Therefore, Laura would definitely be the one who had sent Nicole behind bars.Charlie used his connections and money in an attempt to get Nicole out of the
