Chapter 140 Charlie’s Confession
Charlie and Evelyn were preparing all the lawsuit materials needed for John’s case. However, unexpectedly, the M&F Group suddenly proposed to agree with John’s conditions and wanted to reconcile on the day before the trial.
Charlie had made countless unexpected assumptions before, but he had never expected such a situation to occur.
Evelyn was also surprised. But after all, they had to consider the opinions of the parties involved. John thought about it for a night and finally agreed to reconcile.
The lawsuit, which had been prepared for countless days and nights, ended just like that. Evelyn was still in a daze. While they were trying to mediate in private, Nick did not show up. Instead, another person in charge of the M&F Group showed up.
Evelyn had a rather strange thought in her heart. Perhaps it had something to do with her when Nick agreed to reconcile.
After getting the compensation, John was very satisfied and kept apologizing to Charlie and Evelyn. Charlie didn’t say much and just asked him to live a good life in the future.
On the way back, Evelyn kept silent. When they arrived at the parking lot of the HM Law Office, he asked her, “Are you surprised?”
Evelyn nodded and said, “I’m surprised. I always feel that it was abnormal for Nick to make such a decision.”
In fact, Charlic also thought so. It was very strange because Nick didn’t get any benefits from doing this. But…
“Take a good rest since the lawsuit ended. We don’t need to worry about the follow-up problems as long as John is satisfied.” Charlie smiled and continued, “This is your first case. You have to accept whether the result is good or bad.”
“It’s not bad. At least John is very satisfied.” Evelyn raised her hand and pinched the back of her neck. “I just think that Nick is very unpredictable.”
Seeing her actions, Charlie raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, “Is your neck sour?”
“Yes.” It would be strange if she didn’t feel sour after reading so many documents and files every day.
She didn’t think much about it. Just as she was massaging her neck, a warm palm suddenly fell on the back of her hand. She was shocked and subconsciously shrank her neck to dodge to the side, but her wrist was grabbed by Charlie.
She was so scared that she stammered, “Lawyer… Lawyer Athena?”
She struggled with all her might, but Charlie refused to let go. He said, “After the lawsuit ends, you’ll be given a full-time examination. At that time, you won’t need an instructor like me
anymore.”
She felt so nervous that her heart was in her throat. She didn’t know what he meant.
