"What? That lawyer was a scammer?" Jennifer pressed, "Did he take all your money? Do you have any left? I can transfer some to you if you need it." Laura quickly stopped her. "No, I haven't even spent the money you gave me last time. And I didn't pay that lawyer with my money. I used the money given by Simon's mom. She gave me a million dollars to leave Simon. I took her money, so the lawyer fees didn't come out of my pocket." Realization dawned on Jennifer. But she was still surprised Laura had taken money from Fiona.Seeing Jennifer's confusion, Laura smiled bitterly. "You're probably thinking I'm a coward, right? Not only did I leave Simon, I also accepted money from his family." "No, that's not what I mean." Jennifer waved her hands nervously. "This just doesn't seem like you. But I trust that you had your reasons for making that decision." Laura sighed. "I was with him for five years. You could say it was compensation for my wasted youth. Forget it, I don't want to tal

To Laura's and Jennifer's surprise, Simon acted as if he didn't recognize them. Instead, he walked straight toward Miguel."Simon?" Miguel was delighted and immediately stood up to hug him. "It's been so long!"He turned to Laura and Jennifer. "Let me introduce you. This is my student, Simon Moore! He's my most accomplished student by far! Right now, he's one of the top lawyers in the country!"Simon smiled. "You're too kind, Mr. Gosling. I should have visited you long ago. I didn't expect to run into you here today." Miguel suddenly remembered something and turned to Laura. "Ms. Scott, why don't you discuss your father's case with Simon? He's surpassed me in so many ways now. Who knows, he might have even better solutions for your father's case." Laura and Jennifer blurted out simultaneously, "That's not necessary!" Their panicked response left Miguel and Jonah looking at them with confusion. Meanwhile, Simon smirked at Laura. Realizing her overreaction, Laura quickly e

Laura had just finished showering when she noticed several new messages on her phone. It turned out they were from Jonah. He introduced himself as a literature professor at Haven University. He had completed his doctorate at 24 and stayed on to teach. He had been working for a year now. Laura hummed to herself. With credentials like these, he must have been a standout back in school.After all, Jonah was charming, had a great demeanor, and was academically outstanding. Laura pondered how to introduce herself. Should she say she was living a luxurious life up until she turned 23 and then became Simon's mistress afterward?Compared to Jonah's enviable resume, Laura felt inferior.After wrestling with herself, she finally replied, "But I'm already 28 years old. I'm so much older than you." She figured this was a subtle way to reject him. Most men preferred younger women, after all. However, Jonah quickly replied, "Age is just a number! My parents are very open-minded, an

Simon took a portion of the documents and began flipping through them. He knew every detail about Harry's case better than anyone. Every word in this file was etched clearly in his mind.However, as Miguel reviewed the file, his calm demeanor shifted to one of gravity. His expression became serious and even betrayed a hint of panic.Laura's heart sank, and she asked anxiously, "Mr. Gosling, is my father's case very difficult to handle?"Just yesterday, Miguel had seemed so confident. Now, his hands trembled as he forced a smile and tried to appear calm. "Ms. Scott, is your father being charged only with these crimes? Are there any other accusations?"Laura thought for a moment, then shook her head. "I don't think so. Everything is in the file. Why? Is there a problem?""No… Nothing." Miguel quickly shook his head, and drank from his cup, trying to conceal his nervousness.Simon quietly observed everything, a sense of unease creeping over him.Harry's case was complex but not so

Miguel shot May and Jonah a look. "You two sure let your imaginations run wild. Do you know the kind of person Simon is? Plenty of women wanted to be his girlfriend, and he could pick and choose among them. Do you think he'd just fall for anyone? But look at Jonah. He's already head over heels for Laura after one day." May piped up, "I think Laura's a great girl. She's beautiful, polite, and well-spoken. Didn't you say yesterday you liked her too?" Miguel masked the unease in his eyes. "But I've decided Laura isn't suitable for Jonah after some thought. Her father's criminal record is a serious issue. If they were to get married, their children could face all sorts of obstacles in life." Jonah had fallen for Laura. "You knew about her dad's past yesterday! But you didn't oppose it then. What changed?" Miguel slammed his hand on the table. "I said no, and that's final! Do not meet with Laura again. Our family has always upheld a good reputation, and we won't tolerate being i
