He thought the whole thing was over after Jason stepped on him. He thought it was the only price he had to pay.
It seemed that he was too naive!
At that moment, he realized that the man he had just offended was Jason. He was the last person one should provoke in Emerald City!
In the car, Grace said, “I thought you were trying to stop me when you caught my hand. But you kicked the reporter afterward.”
“I don’t want you to hurt yourself for such a person. In the future, let me take care of those troubles for you,” said Jason.
“That reporter is clearly a petty person. This incident may be widely reported after this and land you in trouble,” said Grace.
“Trouble?” Jason chuckled. “Then I’d like to see who dares to give me trouble. No reporter would dare to cover what just happened.”
Grace was dumbfounded. Well, given his status in Emerald City, it seemed possible.
“By the way, Damian Harmon probably has someone behind him. They told him to sue you and your mentor, or rather… he hit it off with them and decided to work together,” said Jason.
Grace frowned. “Any idea who it is?” After all, with her profession, she had offended tons of people.
“We’re still working on it. It shouldn’t take long to find out,” said Jason.
“Whoever it is, I won’t let them off the hook easily!” said Grace. They had crossed her limits by making an issue out of her and her mentor.
“Then you can make him pay whatever price you want!” said Jason. He would do anything for her!
Grace froze. The man in front of her seemed to spoil her a lot. It was as though he would give her whatever she wanted.
“It seems you’ll agree with everything I do. Aren’t you afraid I’ll do something bloody and violent? What if I want to kill the man?” quipped Grace.
“I’ll do it for you if you really want that to happen,” he said earnestly. He could spill blood for her if that was what she wanted.
“No!” she quickly said as she looked back at him sternly. “I’m just kidding, Jay. I don’t want you to do these bad things for me. Don’t ever do it.”
His lashes quivered a little as his dark eyes glistened with a soft light. “Sure,” he answered in a soft voice.
Irene Lynch was in a good mood. After all, due to Damian Harmon’s lawsuit, the gossip about Grace and her mentor had been trending these days.
Although the Reed family had taken the news off the trending list, Damian Harmon continued to stay active online. He had a bunch of keyboard warriors supporting him.
Today, Damian Harmon posted another sadfishing post to win the netizen’s sympathy, stating how hard his life had been after the case. He also implied that Grace had colluded with her mentor so that Old Lawker Kang would deliberately lose the case to have his apprentice gain some fame.
Irene Lynch saw the post two hours ago. He had just posted it and there were not many comments below.
She waited two more hours to see what the netizens were commenting.
She would feel better seeing those comments criticizing Grace! Then, she just had to find a way to build the momentum. Even if Damian Harmon lost the lawsuit in the end, Grace’s reputation would be damaged and a grudge would be planted in her and Jason’s hearts.
As long as she made good use of this opportunity, she would be the final winner!
Irene Lynch turned on her phone with a smile on her lips and looked at the post, only to freeze when she read the
comments. They were not what she had expected.
Water Faucet: [With a husband like Jason, who would want an old man? Do you think there’s something wrong with Grace’s eyes?]
Spring And Autumn Stage: [Lawyers have analyzed the case. Only an idiot would think there’s something wrong with the case. You know full well what you’ve done. It’s only a matter of course that you lost the case!]
A Tub Of Rice Official: [You’re the one who tricked Old Lawyer Watts. If the evidence hadn’t proved you guilty, would he have lost the case? You should go to his house to kowtow and apologize!]
King Of The World: [Damn, you’re amazing. You alone have caused public outrage in the legal world. They’re probably going to blacklist the name ‘Damian Harmon’!]
Irene Lynch looked confused. ‘What happened? Why did the course of events change all of a sudden? It wasn’t like this before. Public outrage in the legal world? What’s going on?’
Irene Lynch quickly looked through the news portal again. After 15 minutes, she finally understood what was going on!
L City’s bar a**ociation was siding with Grace and her mentor. Moreover, many well-known lawyers of the a**ociation had A/A
analyzed the case with reasonable grounds and finally reached a unanimous conclusion that her mentor did not deliberately lose the case. It was because of the solid evidence that the defendant was declared guilty!
Even the judge who presided over the case posted a statement online, saying he had made his decision based on the evidence and that he had a clear conscience.
Old Lawyer Watts’s wife questioned Damian Harmon’s purpose in doing this. If lawyers who did the right thing had to suffer such slander, then there would be fewer and fewer righteous lawyers in the future!
Many lawyers would be disappointed if those who committed slander were let off the hook!
The post instantly went viral.
Those who sided with Damian Harmon switched sides after seeing so many well-reasoned analyses by lawyers.
Damian Harmon had become a public enemy in the legal world! Many lawyers even said they would never represent Damian Harmon!
Some netizens dug out videos of Grace in court in L City. One could say that she won the cases swimmingly. Therefore, Grace started to gain many supporters online. They all praised her for having it all. She had a tall, rich, and handsome husband as well as a son and a daughter!
A photo of Grace and Jason attending the banquet went viral online that night.
Grace was wearing the limited edition gown that Irene Lynch had her eye on but was eventually bought by Grace. She did not even get a chance to try it on.
Grace was smiling, her comely face looking cla**y and elegant when paired with the gown. jason was standing beside Grace in the photo, holding her hand and looking down as his stunning peach blossom eyes looked tenderly at Grace.
From the photo, anyone could see that Jason was deeply in love with Grace.
Had a man like him ever looked at another woman with such a gaze?
Irene Lynch was jealous!
‘It should’ve been me standing beside Jason!
‘Why does Grace have so many people speaking up for her?
‘Even the mocking remarks online have now turned into praises. Is it just because she’s Jason’s wife and the mistress of the Reed family?
‘I spent so much money to execute this plan, yet I ended up helping Grace instead. Am I just going to watch netizens admire Grace for having it all?’
Irene Lynch’s face twisted with jealousy…
When Grace returned to Reed Residence after sending her son and daughter to kindergarten in the morning, she was surprised to see two figures pulling and pushing at the gates. One of them had a bandaged wrist.
As the car approached, Grace saw that these two people were Sean and Zoe Stevens.
