A trace of confusion surfaced in his eyes.
Then, Hadley came in. “Eldest Young Master Lyons, this is the information on Logan Law’s case.”
Shaun froze and suddenly remembered that he had decided to take over the lawsuit for Sarah. He had to hand in the relevant information.
This time, Cate and he would meet in court.
Since she cared so much about Logan Law, he would personally send that man to jail and see how she would fight against him.
After all, the word ‘defeat’ did not exist in his dictionary.
“Eldest Young Master Lyons, you haven’t taken on a lawsuit in many years. Why are you suddenly… With all due respect, no matter who wins this lawsuit, Miss Cox and you will become complete strangers at the end of it,” Hadley boldly said.
Shaun was slightly stunned.
It was true that it had been years since he took on a lawsuit. If Thomas had not spoken in the hospital that day, he might not have chosen to go to court in person.
He had to say that Thomas’ words really pushed Cate and him to the brink.
Deep in his heart, there was a strong flash of irritation and annoyance. However, when he thought about it carefully, he knew she had already cut off the last trace of love between them when she used Suzie to threaten him.
Since she did not know how to cherish him, why should he care?
“Enough, I know what I’m doing. Go out,” Shaun said coldly.
Hadley closed the door behind him and sighed. When he saw Eldest Young Master Lyons and Cate reconcile, he had hesitated on whether he should tell him about the truth of the children after
There’s no possibility of winning at all if he goes to court for Sarah.”
Harvey looked at Cate in concern. He shared the same thoughts as Mireya.
Cate lowered her eyes. Her dark and thick lashes blocked the dim light in her eyes. “No matter how amazing Shaun is, he’s only the most powerful in the country. There will always be someone even more powerful in the world. As long as the other party is willing to come, I’m willing to spend any amount of money.”
“Actually… ” Harvey hesitated and said, “Shaun Lyons once competed with the second-ranked lawyer in the world and the two were tied. At present, the number one lawyer in the world is over 6o years old and has retired for more than ten years. He won’t appear even if the richest person in the world asks him to.”
Cate, “…”
Mireya was speechless. “In other words, Shaun Lyons is already the best in the world?”
“ Something like that. ” Harvey nodded helplessly.
Mireya also suddenly fell silent. Shaun had taken on they got married.
However, it seemed there was no need now. Eldest Young Master Lyons would always be unconditionally partial to Sarah. Even if he knew he loved Cate, nothing would change. His protectiveness over Sarah was carved deep into his bones. It was better this way. Eldest Young Master Lyons and Sarah should just harm each other instead of hurting Cate. He really could not stand it anymore.
Hackett Institute.
In the past two days, Cate was cooped up at home and watched dashcam videos until her eyes became blurry. Fortunately, Mireya was there to help. However, it was so tiring that they barely slept.
In the afternoon, Harvey brought the relevant paperwork for Logan’s case. “The case has been scheduled for next Wednesday. The other party’s lawyer is Shaun Lyons.”
“Shaun Lyons?” Mireya almost flipped the laptop in front of her. “He’s determined to fight against you, isn’t he? Everyone in the country knows that Shaun has never lost before. No matter how much evidence you find, he can spin the story around.
A lawsuit for Cate to save her before, so Mireya did not expect him to go against her to send her most trusted subordinate to prison.
“We can’t give up, ” Cate said, “In the face of absolute evidence, any powerful lawyer has the possibility to win. Since he has never lost, I’ll let him have a taste of what it’s like to lose in a fight against me.”
Mireya gave her a thumbs up. “You’re awesome!”
Harvey said, “Every lawyer who had gone to court against Shaun Lyons said that too, but they were all utterly defeated.”
Cate closed her eyes and finally gritted her
teeth. “Get out.”
The next few days, Cate and Austin were bustling about to find evidence.
It was Tuesday in the blink of an eye. When Wesley came to visit her, he saw that her eyes were bloodshot and her face seemed to have slimmed down. His heart clenched. “You’re going to court tomorrow. Have you found any evidence?”
“Yeah.” Cate rubbed her tired eyes. “We found some evidence. There’s a chance of winning, but it’s not big.”
“Oh?” Wesley’s eyes flashed meaningfully. “What is it? I’m quite curious.”
“I won’t say it now. You’ll find out tomorrow,” Cate said worriedly, “But the chances of winning are very small. After all… the opposing side is Shaun Lyons, who has never lost before. Tomorrow, rather than letting the judge pronounce that Logan is innocent, we’re actually trying to convince Shaun. As long as he understands that Logan was framed, there’s a chance we can win.”
“Not necessarily, ” Wesley reminded her, “Even if he realizes he might have wrongly accused Logan, it’ll be his first failure in his career as a lawyer if he loses. Even if he knows he’s wrong, judging from his arrogant character, he’ll continue to fight to win.”
Cate was stunned and smiled bitterly. “You’re right. People like him have no bottom line.”
“But… you’ll win.” Wesley suddenly gently pressed on her shoulder. “I know you’ve been busy and very tired lately, so I haven’t been sitting around idly either. I found the car that was used to kidnap Sarah. There was no trace of Logan in it.”
“Really?” Cate suddenly sat up, her eyes filled with brightness.
“Yeah.” Wesley handed her a file. “I’ve asked the relevant authorities to check the car and even searched for fingerprints. Only the car trunk has Logan’s fingerprints.”
“That’s great.” Cate took the file and felt emotional. “With this, we’ll absolutely win. Wesley, thank you so much. I can’t ever repay—”
“Don’t talk about repaying me. My feelings for you make me more than willing to do anything for
you. ” Wesley gently held her hands. His eyes were full of affection as he said, “ If you want to protect him, I’ll protect him with you.”
Cate’s heart shook fiercely.
All along, she was aware of Wesley’s feelings for her, but she had always rejected him.
That moment, she was utterly touched. In fact, she should have realized long ago that he was the person who treated her the best. All these years, he had accompanied her without complaints. He would help her whenever she needed it, and he treated Suzie and Lucas so well too.
As for Shaun, he only hurt her endlessly.
She suddenly regretted it. She regretted that she realized it too late.
“I’m sorry, Wesley. I realize that I’ve made a mistake,” Cate said bitterly, “I shouldn’t have approached Shaun again and dated him to get back a t him. I keep hurting you time and again, but I’ll never do it again.”
“You mean…?” Wesley looked up in astonishment. “In the past, I only thought of letting Shaun taste
the pain of being abandoned by his beloved.”
Cate said bitterly, “But I didn’t know that the bond between Sarah and him can’t be broken by anyone. In fact, even if Sarah hadn’t hypnotized Shaun, he wouldn’t be able to break off his relationship with her. In the long run, we would be divorced anyway. Only now do I finally understand that Shaun and I divorced back then not because of the hypnosis but because he’s too deeply involved with Sarah. In this lifetime, Sarah will always be his heart’s first love.”
“It’s good that you know, ” Wesley said with a smile. “It’s just like how I have you in my heart. Even if I know you won’t accept me, I’ll still automatically draw a clear line with other women. I n my opinion, true love and loyalty should be like this.”
“Yes, I know who is worth cherishing now.” Cate held Wesley’s hand. “Thank you for always waiting for me. I don’t want to let you down anymore.”
“That’s great.” Wesley’s gentle and elegant face was overcome with joy.
He excitedly hugged Cate and spun her around. “Cathy, I’ve waited too long for this day. I’m not dreaming, am I? You won’t leave me for Shaun again later, right?”
