Chapter 270

작가: Lilian Green
By eight-fifty, everyone at the courthouse had already arrived, even plenty of spectators had filled the seats.

But Ace was still nowhere to be seen.

Most of the people in the gallery were on Julian’s side, eager to see Autumn lose. After all, they knew how to separate insiders from outsiders.

When Jasmine arrived and saw how deserted Autumn’s side looked—with only her sitting there without even an attorney—she walked over and sneered.

“Well, Autumn, have you really gotten this poor? Can’t even afford to hire a lawyer?

“Tsk tsk, how pitiful. If you’d told me earlier, I could’ve given you some money to at least hire a spectator to sit beside you.

“That would look better than sitting here all alone, looking like some pitiful stray, don’t you think?”

She’d been stewing ever since Autumn had her thrown into the police station, waiting for a chance to get back at her.

And today, seeing Autumn like an abandoned clown lifted her spirits completely.

Back then, Autumn had relied on Keith to ta

  • Remarried After I Secretly Divorced the CEO   Chapter 286

    Autumn couldn’t even remember how she ended up at Sinclair Group. Selena’s words had gotten through to her, and in a rush of impulse, she had run straight there.She was lucky—just as she entered the lobby, she ran into Jesse, who was about to head out.Jesse was surprised to see her. "Miss Lewis, what brings you to our company? Are you here to see Mr. Sinclair?"It was the first time he’d ever seen Autumn come to look for Keith. When she was hospitalized for three days, Keith had stayed with her for two of them. And now she had come all the way to his office. That really shocked Jesse. He had always thought Keith’s feelings were one-sided. After all, Autumn had just gotten out of a marriage—surely, she wouldn’t believe in love again so soon. But maybe Keith’s charm was simply too much; had she really been won over this quickly?Autumn suddenly felt awkward. She gave a shy smile. "Um… is he in his office right now?"She didn’t bother making excuses or trying to hide it. She openl

    But back then, without any evidence, all he could do was watch the rumors spread, watch George sent to prison, powerless to stop it.Autumn felt a sharp ache in her chest. She took a sip of coffee, then asked, "Was my uncle sent to prison because someone was pulling strings behind the scenes?"She already knew the Lewis family had manipulated the case. What she couldn’t understand was why they had chosen to side with the Far family.Was it really just because Jasmine’s mother was Luna’s aunt?But George was her uncle, Richard’s brother-in-law. How could he turn his back on family and help destroy him?"Yes." Charles nodded.Autumn’s chest ached even more. She asked hoarsely, "Was it the Lewis family?"When Charles nodded again, Autumn shut her eyes. Two streams of tears slipped into her coffee.Selena burst out angrily. "How disgusting can they get? To crush their own brother-in-law like that—are they even human?"That whole Lewis clan must be insane. It’s bad enough they sided with th

    Henry shot Zack a glare but didn’t bring up dating again.He turned to Selena with an awkward smile. "Sorry about that. First time you’re here and you’ve already had to witness this."Selena quickly shook her head. "It’s fine. Actually, I think your family feels very warm and welcoming. It’s really comfortable being around you all."If only she had been bold enough to pursue Zack back then. She truly liked this kind of family atmosphere. But now, she no longer had the courage to chase after love. All she could do was work hard and keep herself occupied.Only then did Zack really notice Selena. She looked familiar somehow. He asked Autumn, "Autumn, is she your classmate? I feel like I’ve seen her somewhere before."Autumn smiled. "Yes, she is, Zack. I’m surprised you still remember her. She was just asking me if you were home."Before she could finish, Selena gave her a discreet pinch and whispered, "Don’t say things like that. If your cousin misunderstands, I’ll be mortified."She w

    She couldn’t resist teasing, "What’s wrong? Don’t tell me you’re upset because you heard my cousin went out with a female colleague?"Flustered, Selena plucked a grape and shoved it into Autumn’s mouth. "Of course not! Stop talking nonsense. If you keep it up, I’ll hit you."The truth was, she didn’t know why hearing Zack had gone out made her feel unsettled, but she would never admit it. She told herself it was normal.After all, she used to admire Zack quite a lot. It was only after hearing he had a girlfriend that she gave up on the thought.She thought there was no chance for her, so she accepted Derek’s pursuit instead. She had given him her whole heart, only to discover he was nothing but a hypocrite.The thought left her feeling hollow. If she had chosen to pursue Zack back then, would things have turned out differently?But on second thought, there had been no chance before, and now there was even less. After all, he had another girlfriend now.That little secret, she had neve

    Alex thought that Julian had ignored his wife for so many years. This time, though it was for Sienna’s sake, he was at least offering Autumn a way out. Surely Autumn would take it.After all, this was the first time in all these years Julain took the initiative to give Autumn something, and not just anything, but company shares.Everyone knew the value of Carter Group rose by double digits every year, its future potential immeasurable.If Autumn held shares, she would practically have a cash machine in her hands, money flowing in endlessly.Ten percent of the shares was a dream many people couldn’t even hope to reach. He didn’t believe Autumn would refuse.Yet Autumn only let out a soft laugh, then said word by word, "Tell Julian I won’t drop the lawsuit, and I won’t settle. He should give up on that idea."After hanging up, Autumn and Selena went to see her uncle. The moment he saw them, he hurried over to take the things from their hands.Henry muttered as he received them, "You sho

    "Now that his sister was about to face trouble, he suddenly thought of you, his ex-wife. That really put him in a difficult spot."Back when Julian insisted on sending Autumn a lawyer’s letter, he never would have imagined such a reversal.As for the recent court hearing, she had heard bits and pieces. Word was, since the case couldn’t be won, Sienna’s lawyer had simply walked out halfway through.Just thinking of that scene, and the Lewis family’s humiliated faces, made her feel exhilarated.What a pity she hadn’t been there in person to watch—had she known it would be that spectacular, she would have taken leave just to enjoy the show.Autumn glanced at the phone that had hung up on its own. "Doesn’t matter. Julian, just to help Sienna, was even willing to offer me ten percent of Carter Group’s shares."It was clear now—through all these years, Julian had never truly treated her as family. After all, what kind of family only knew how to take, without ever giving?In truth, Julian was
