Chapter 481
After all, Felicity was from the esteemed Lenoir family, and it seemed
inconceivable that she had no authority within her own household.
She refused to accept the reality.
Just then, a gentle knock came from the door, signaling Lexi’s arrival.
With Mackenzie’s permission, she entered and reported, “Ms. Mackenzie, Mr.
Bryant is highly confident, with over 90% certainty, that Emmanuel will be
acquitted!”
“Fantastic!” Mackenzie nodded, her eyes brimming with trust. “I’ll entrust this
matter to you, then.”
At that, Terence added sternly, “Lexi, being 90% confident is not enough! He
must secure Emmanuel’s acquittal without fail. Should any complications
arise, notify me immediately. There’s no need to fear General Lenoir as long
as I’m here!”
“Understood, Old Mr. Quillen!” Lexi swiftly nodded in utmost respect. She was
well aware of Terence’s connections and influence. With his support, even
Adolph would be rendered powerless against Emmanuel’s case.
“Old Mr. Quillen and Mackenzie, sooner or later, all of you will come to regret
protecting him!” Overwhelmed by anger, Felicity had no choice but to storm
out of the room.
Silently, Sarah followed in her footsteps.
Meanwhile, at the Lenoir Residence, Adolph gazed upon his second son’s
lifeless body, his expression darkening like an impending storm.
Quintus couldn’t help but shiver with fear as he beheld his father’s expression.
On the other hand, Elizabeth couldn’t believe that Emmanuel was responsible
for her brother’s death and wanted to speak up for him. However, in the face
of her father’s expression, she found herself unable to voice her thoughts.
“General, the Quillen family has enlisted Mr. Bryant as Emmanuel’s defense
attorney. It seems unlikely that we will achieve justice for Tobias through legal
means.” Laura finally broke the oppressive silence.
