Chapter 85 We’ll See in Court
Early in the morning.
When Elisa walked out of her house, a blue Lamborghini was waiting for her. She watched as the driver’s door opened and Will stepped out of the car.
His royal blue suit was striking against his fair skin. He looked like a warm person, unlike his cold personality.
“Good morning.”
Will opened the passenger seat’s door and looked at Elisa in surprise. She had always managed to surprise him.
She was dressed simply in a black suit. Her long hair was tied up in a bun. She looked neat.
When they met in the law firm, Elisa would always wear formal wear, like she did today. But she looked different than usual.
Will’s eyes kept straying back to her.
“Good morning.” Elisa answered as she entered the car without hesitation. They were headed to the same place after all.
Will handed her a paper bag. “Have you eaten?”
Elisa did not reach for the food. “I have a routine, so I’ve eaten already. Go ahead and eat if you haven’t.”
He placed the food down and smiled.
“Alright then. Let’s head to the court.”
She stayed silent as Will drove. Unused to the silence, he glanced at her.
“Are you nervous?”
“What do you think?” She raised her eyebrows.
He smiled. “If it was Iris, naturally she wouldn’t be nervous. But I think you are Elisa now.”
They were both the same person, yet they seemed to be different when he pointed it out.
Elisa had a man in her heart, which was her ex-husband.
Iris was different. She was apathetic towards others. The law was the only thing she respected.
“Elisa Benett is Iris, Iris is Elisa. They are both single,” she said plainly.
He grinned. “Now that you say that, I’m relieved.”
She pressed her lips together. Emotions flitted through her face when she remembered that Gareth would be sitting across her in moments.
She drew a breath and stayed silent.
Will chatted with her on the way, making the ride less awkward.
When they reached their destination, Will drove straight towards the parking area.
He shut the car engine and turned towards Elisa with a smile.
“Let’s head in now.”
Elisa nodded, and they stepped out of the car.
Will offered his arm to Elisa. “If you’re nervous, you can lean on me.”
She looked at him, amused. “Are you worried that I might get soft-hearted?”
“I’m just taking advantage of the situation.” He smirked.
She stared at him speechlessly. A smile began to form on the corner of her lips.
“I’ll double your profits this time.”
He looked at her, surprised. “Are you sure?”
He knew that she was capable, but doubted that she could keep her emotions in check.
“We’ll see in court.” She stepped into the building.
Gareth and Vincent, who had arrived moments before, were entering the building.
Gareth looked back to see Will and Elisa walking towards them.
