A Matter of Wife and Love novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157

After thinking about it, Amelie felt that even if it were for Bria’s sake, she shouldn’t have taken it to court and eventually turned Leo into her enemy.

She was calling up Leo with that in mind.

She kept thinking she should talk to him and resolve this matter peacefully.

In the end, she overheard this conversation instead.

At that moment, Amelie felt her heart turn cold.

Then, a cold smile crept onto her lips.

He kept claiming that he cared about Bria, but clearly, he didn’t care much about her.

He even turned off his phone just to accompany Elyse.

Hah.

After hanging up, Amelie began to look for a lawyer.

Starlight Media had its own legal team, but it was more specialized in business matters.

Even though it was the same occupation, their field and focus were different, so there would be an obvious difference.

The person in charge of the legal team recommended Amelie a professional divorce lawyer in Clouson City. After talking for some time over the phone, Amelie briefly told the lawyer about her situation.

“From the current situation, I can see that your video is the strongest evidence the other party has. However, that video isn’t completely invincible,” the lawyer said after a simple analysis of the case.

A discussion over the phone would be inconvenient, so the lawyer invited her for a detailed discussion at his office the next day.

Amelie noted the address, then hung up.

The next day at the appointed time, she went to Oriental Law Firm where the lawyer worked.

She waited there for 2 hours before the lawyer finally showed up.

Amelie didn’t mind it. She retrieved some documents from her bag and said, “I’ve brought everything you asked

me to.

He wiped some sweat off his forehead as he spoke with an apologetic look.

His sudden change in attitude startled Amelie, and she wasn’t sure what she should do. “Didn’t you say that it’s

an easy case?”

“It is, but after some discussion, we decided not to accept your case. Why don’t you ask at another place?”

Amelie looked at the lawyer in suspicion, feeling like there was something else he wasn’t saying.

“Can you be honest with me? Did someone pressure you?”

Hearing Amelie’s question, the lawyer smiled uneasily as he pushed his thick-rimmed glasses. “You are indeed

a smart person, Miss Dillon.”

Amelie didn’t know what to feel about her guesses being spot on.

How could the Alstons do something so despicable just to prevent her from getting custody of Bria?

If even Oriental Law Firm didn’t dare to accept her case, asking the other law firms would be a waste of time

as well.

“Miss Dillon, I know that you’re the representative of Starlight Media and are in no lack of money, but the Alstons have both money and power, and they even have numerous connections. You won’t win if you fight them, so why don’t you sit down and negotiate with them? Perhaps they’ll spare you,” the lawyer suggested.

He felt quite sorry because he broke his promise and was unable to help Amelie.

Even though he dared not offend the Alstons, he still wanted to do his best and give Amelie some friendly

advice.

Amelie knew the lawyer was saying this for her own good, so she nodded. “Thank you.”

After walking out, she took a deep breath.
