Felicity slapped his hand away and glared at him. "Other people grow an inch taller after giving birth. I
haven't even had a child yet, so I can definitely grow."
Vermont raised an eyebrow. "Have some common sense. Other people get taller after giving birth
because of cervix dilation. You're a young lady, so how would your cervix dilate?"
Felicity wanted to roast him. However, after hearing him call her a young lady, she immediately forgave
the Stinky Cucumber for his words.
Vermont raised his head and looked at Marshall.
"Yoven and his wife are troublesome people, so why would you take this case?"
Marshall answered while cutting his steak, "I don't have a choice. She's offering way too much." "Tsk."
Vermont replied, "Are you someone who's short of that amount of money?"
Yoven was not a good person, and neither was his wife.
The couple was in cahoots and often used to send the young girls in their company to sleep with their
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcompany's partners.
A few years ago, someone had even sued the two, saying that they set people up for rape. In the end,
the person lost the case because the witness retracted their testimony in court.
After that, the girl committed suicide by jumping into the river, and the incident became a big deal.
However, people on the Internet had always been forgetful. In less than two years, all of the negative
news disappeared.
Yoven's business had even gotten bigger than before.
It was really strange now that this atrocious couple wanted to part ways.
Marshall smiled and said, "The bigger the case, the more popular our law firm will be. That's why I wish
that every single case was like this."
When Vermont saw that Felicity had finished her steak, he gave her half of his untouched steak.
'This isn't like you. In the past, you didn't take cases from this kind of people at all."
Marshall said, "Back then, I was young. I always thought of administering justice. But now, it's like what
you said; earning money is more important." 'You can only talk about your dreams if you have money,"
Vermont said with a smile.
Felicity snorted, "How secular!"
Vermont glanced at her and replied, "And, doctors aren't secular. Doctors don’t receive wages for
saving lives and helping the injured. They work for free, and they don't eat at all."
Felicity frowned.
'Why are you bringing Doctor Steven into this?"
Vermont swallowed expressionlessly and said, "Did I mention Corbin
Steven's name?"
Felicity glared at him. Just as she was about to speak, Vermont said, "Do you still want me to pay for
this?"
Felicity forced back the words she had at the tip of her tongue. Then, she forced a smile.
"You’re right, Vermont. You're not secular at all, Vermont," she said.
Only after that did Vermont feel a little better.
He grabbed his phone and secretly took a photo of Stella, who was eating. Then, he sent the photo to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKeegan.
[After this, help your wife settle the bill.]
Keegan was having a meal with a client, so he did not rush to open Vermont's WhatsApp message
when he saw it.
He only checked his phone when his client went to the washroom.
He opened the photo and saw Stella sitting at a dining table and eating. In front of her was a set meal
he often ordered.
He slightly softened his expression. Just as he was about to transfer the money, he suddenly froze.
There was a man's hand on the left side of the photo. On the wrist of the hand was a quartz watch with
a pale golden watch face that had an eagle engraved on it.
It was a customized model from Patek Phillipe, a coming-of-age gift Marshall's family had given him.
Keegan immediately darkened his expression and tightly pursed his lips.
Vermont waited for a long time, but Keegan still had not transferred him the money.
'This isn't right. Keegan's so in love with Stella. Isn't he supposed to transfer me some money after
seeing Stella?' he wondered.
The four dined for nearly an hour. Seeing how everyone was almost done eating, Marshall stood up
and said, "I'm going to the washroom."
After he stood up, he did not go to the washroom but to the checkout counter.
