Chapter: Chapter 250In the study, both Helen and Jasmine were present. Elijah would naturally not let James over. In his eyes, James was on Thiago's side. At this point, the father and son were almost entirely at odds. It seemed that ever since Cynthia, Thiago's biological mother, committed suicide, they were left with a relationship in name only. The chasm between them, now aggravated by Kira, was exactly what Helen wanted to see. Only when they were at loggerheads, each on their own side, could she take advantage of the chaos and profit from the Anderson Group! Even if Elijah was the father of this illegitimate child, what did it matter? “I called you over to inform you of something.” Elijah, with a cold face, sat on the sofa and casually threw a freshly printed appointment letter in front of Thiago, “I have decided to officially hire Cedric as the legal advisor of the Anderson Group, also as the head of the legal department. This appointment will be issued first thing tomorrow morning. I have

Chapter: Chapter 249Whenever Kira showed up, it was as if a tornado had swept through the Anderson family, leaving nothing but chaos and discord in its wake. Kira didn’t have the time or the inclination to explain herself to James, believing that the truth would eventually come to light. Besides, she had already had a taste of Cedric’s character from William and Elizabeth. If he could pull strings to get Jasmine out of a sticky situation, it meant he had taken care of any potential threats, Even if she knew that he had framed Kevin, the police had already closed the case and it was not likely to be reopened. Cedric’s smile could be as charming as a gentleman, but his actions were as treacherous as a snake in the grass. James, on the other hand, had no intention of making things difficult for her, After all, he trusted her. He had seen her genuine, golden heart. And if he couldn’t trust Amelia, who else could he trust in this world? Kira personally wheeled James back to his room, with Thiago followi

Chapter: Chapter 248Kira could feel the heat radiating from Thiago's palm, wave after wave washing over her skin. She thought, “Crazy man! What’s gotten into you again? Take off your dirty hand!” As if sensing her attempt to break free, the man’s fingers nearly crushed her shoulder, gripping her with a force that felt like they were fused together. The sight of the former husband and wife being so intimate startled everyone! Only James, their grandfather, sported a surprised yet relieved grin. His previously suppressed mood instantly blossomed, his mouth agape with joy. He thought, “Oh my! Have Amelia and Thiago gotten back together? But Amelia doesn’t seem to be too pleased, does she?” Well, whether it’s relentless pursuit or forced courtship, his grandson’s thick skull finally seems to have a crack of understanding! Any progress in their relationship was worth celebrating with fireworks! Kira, having had enough, took advantage of the distraction. She slowly lifted her foot and stomped down hard.

Chapter: Chapter 247A powerful retort from Kira made Cedric feel as though his mask of pretense was ripped off, exposing the shameful title of an ungrateful man hovering over his head Kira thought, “Wishing to distance yourself from the Hamilton, are you? Alright. But I will make sure to stir the pot. Your secrets hidden in the dark, I’ll drag them out into the light!” Cedric’s lips tightened, his face still adorned with a smile, but his gaze on Kira held no trace of mirth. Instead, it held an icy chill. Was this the woman Jason was head over heels in love with? Pampered, arrogant, sharp–tongued! To bring such a troublesome woman into the Dempsey household would only cause chaos. Peaceful days would be a thing of the past! The atmosphere became tense and awkward. Elijah thought Kira was nothing short of a disaster. Every time she appeared, a storm was sure to follow! Cedric’s abilities as a lawyer were undisputed, and Elijah had always wanted him on his side. But he didn’t know about this connect

Chapter: Chapter 246Thiago delivered his statement with a thunderous voice, then strode off, leaving the room with his head held high. Cedric remained motionless where he stood, his body flushed with a cold sting of embarrassment. Born into a prominent family of lawyers, he was always held in high regard by his parents and adored by his younger siblings. He was well respected among the legal fraternity of Hemsworth.Even the wealthiest tycoons would make concessions just to have him handle their cases. When had he ever experienced such humiliation? Wait a minute. Cedric scowled, turning to look at Thiago's retreating figure. What was the nature of his relationship with Kira? And why was Thiago, a man known for his reserved nature, so enraged on her behalf? He knew Kira, the Hamilton family’s precious gem. She was a woman of celestial beauty, set high above the common folk. She had the world at her fingertips, yet she barely paid any mind to the average man. There was only one possibility. Thiago,

Chapter: Chapter 245Cedric had Elijah pull strings to suppress the news, but it still reached Thiago at the first instance. “Why was Jasmine released? Didn’t you keep an eye on Caroline? Did you let Cedric get close to her?” Thiago's stern face was as cold as frost, and he punched the car window in frustration. “Mr. Thiago, Caroline wasn’t the problem. It was Kevin!” Mateo was so angry his eyes turned green, “Our informant relayed that Cedric, under the guise of a proxy lawyer and with Elijah's aid, visited Kevin at the detention center in secret. Whatever he said scared Kevin into taking the blame for everything, thus Jasmine was naturally cleared of suspicion!” “What else could he have done but exploit his weakness, threatening the safety of his family! A top–tier lawyer even resorted to such despicable means!” Thiago's hazel eyes were shrouded in a deep, ominous gloom, like a stormy sea before a tsunami and his fists shook with suppressed rage. “The honorable reputation of Justice is utterly ruine
