Chapter 1250
Felicity took it as just something that a playboy would typically say, so she curled her lips and said, “Well, this has got to be tough for you then.”
Just as she was speaking, her phone rang. It was a call from Stella.
“Are you coming back tonight? Or are you staying at Vermont’s place?”
Felicity immediately stood up, “I’m coming back!”
Then, she grabbed the iPad and left. Vermont froze in place.
‘Keegan is such a useless guy. When is he going to marry Stella and take her home? He’s literally the reason why I’m still single!”
Keegan told Stella that he would find a lawyer for her, and he did. The next day, someone contacted Stella and told her that Keegan had given him her number.
Stella told the lawyer to meet her at a secluded cafe nearby. She pushed the door open and was a little taken aback.
It turned out that the lawyer was someone she had seen before. It was Ted Eldrich, the same lawyer who represented Bella in the previous defamation case.
Ted stood up as soon as he saw Stella coming in and greeted her politely, “Hello, I’m the lawyer appointed by Keegan. My name is Ted Eldrich.”
Stella recollected herself and nodded. “Nice to meet you.”
“Have a seat, Ms. Jewell,” Ted said warmly. “Keegan had briefly told me about what’s happening, but can you walk me through it again so I don’t miss out on any details?”
Stella quickly snapped out of her confusion and carefully explained the situation to Ted.
Ted was very professional. He seemed to be calmer a more empathetic lawyer like Marshall.
However, this sense of indifference came from maintaining a professional distance from his clients. It did not affect the way he handled the case at all. He would raise doubts and questions regarding Stella’s statements to note them down.
They finished three cups of coffee each before Stella could finally clarify everything.
Ted closed his notebook and lifted his gaze. “I understand the situation now. I’ll issue a notice as soon as possible to demand the other party’s eviction.”
