Bound By A Broken Night novel Chapter 125

Chapter 125

They were figures well known in Bay City’s upper circles–men whose names carried weight in courtrooms and among the elite.

“Control your actions toward our client, Mr. Knowles,” one of them said. His tone was calm, but the warning beneath it was unmistakable.

Red’s eyes flickered between them, recognition dawning.

“Atty. Hans… Atty. Cole…”

His raised hand slowly lowered.

Hans & Cole Law Firm.

The indomitable legal force that represented the most powerful families in the city-the kind of firm that only the elite could afford.

“We will not tolerate any form of violence or intimidation against our client,” Atty. Cole added evenly.

“And as you can see, Mr. Knowles, the police officers present will serve as witnesses to any inappropriate behavior.”

Around them, the officers remained alert, their watchful eyes following every movement.

Red’s fists clenched at his sides, the muscles in his jaw tightening as he struggled to contain his rage.

He could hardly believe Cassidy was able to hire Hans and Cole Law Firm.

That firm did not simply accept clients based on wealth. They represented influence. Power. Status. They served the elite of the elite-families whose names shaped the direction of the country itself.

They did not work for just anyone who could afford their fees.

Meanwhile, Cassidy stood between her lawyers.

Still. Calm. Composed. Untouchable.

“Dad…” Mirriam gripped his arm, her voice trembling as she leaned closer.

“How could she possibly hire Hans & Cole?”

Red’s eyes remained fixed on Cassidy, his expression darkening.

“I don’t know,” he whispered back, his teeth grinding together.

“But I’m certain Ashton Pierce has something to do with this.”

“Ashton?” Mirriam breathed, her face paling,

Despair began to creep into her voice,

“Why is he doing this to us, Dad? It’s like he’s been planning everything… step by step.” Her fingers tightened around his sleeve.

“And now he even gave Cassidy the best legal team in the country.”

Her eyes lifted toward Cassidy, filled with anger, fear, and disbelief.

“He’s helping her destroy us.”

Across the room, Cassidy met Mirriam’s gaze.

The hatred in Mirriam’s eyes was unmistakable. But Cassidy didn’t react. She didn’t flinch. Didn’t look away.
