Chapter 123 No One Dares to Gossip About You With Me Around
Evelyn frowned and refused without hesitation. “I don’t want it. Lawyer Athena is very good to me and has helped me a lot. He has taught me a lot. You can’t…”
Speaking of this, she seemed to be a little scared. After a pause, she retorted in a low voice, “You can’t stop him from teaching me just because of your conjecture.”
“Isn’t it good for me to teach you?”
What?
Was he going to teach her in person?
As the founder of HM Law Office, the president of the law firm, the influential man in the law industry, he actually…
She felt a little overjoyed, but it didn’t take long for her to calm down. She said, “That’s even worse. I’ll be gossiped by others.”
When Charlie taught her, some people gossiped about her. If it were Huston who taught her, she would have died miserably.
“If I were your instructor, nobody would dare to gossip about you.”
Ilis words carried an overwhelmingly authoritative tone. He never took anyone seriously, yet nobody perceived him as arrogant. Because he possessed the capability to back up his words and actions.
“There’s no real necessity.” Having spent a considerable amount of time with him, she had become familiar with his temperament. She spoke words that pleased him, “Although I desire your instruction, prior arrangements have been made. Altering them at this time would be ill-advised for both myself and you.”
As expected, when Huston heard her “considerate” words, his expression softened a little from its previously ugly appearance. Even though he was aware of her attempt to flatter him, he still enjoyed it.
He knew that she was principled, but in fact, he was the same. It was just that he had lost his principles when he met her.
For him, she was one of the uncontrollable factors. Of course, he didn’t want to control her.
After thinking for a moment, seeing that her little face was full of persistence, the man finally said, “In the future, when you go out with him, let me know in advance.”
He was not so generous as to let his woman be alone with a man who had a good impression of her.
Since he had already made a concession, she quickly agreed and promised him straightforwardly, “Of course.”
On the other side, Jerry lived a tough life.
He had already planned to take advantage of this matter to catch Huston off guard, but he didn’t expect that the man would have a backup plan. Not only had Huston thought of a way out, but Huston had also handed the case over to Lawyer Warren before he could make a move.
Jerry sneered with a gloomy face and thought, “Huston, you’re really capable. How dare you set me up?”
He even felt that Huston might have known that he had followed and investigated Evelyn before. He thought that his smart move might be like a clown in Huston’s eyes.
“Ring! Ring! Ring!”
The telephone in the living room suddenly rang. The servant. answered the phone and said to him, “Mr. Graves, it’s Mr. Eddy Graves…”
A call from his father?
Jerry frowned hard. He dared to refuse anyone, but he did not dare to disobey Eddy.
He let out a heavy sigh. Despite his reluctance, he got up and walked over to pick up the phone. “Hello, Dad.”
