Chapter 155 Leave Him No Choice
“Sebastian, Grandma’s mourning period ends next Saturday. When do we register the marriage?”
The tight line of his mouth eased into a slow smile.
“Not sure yet. I’ll have my assistant look at the calendar.”
“Okay. Tell me after you check. And… thank you for the trending topic.”
So she had figured it out.

A quiet warmth slipped into Sebastian’s expression, though she couldn’t see it. “It’s nothing. That’s what a husband does, right?! said I’d back you. I’m not letting you take a loss.”
Serena laughed softly. “Thanks. See you next week.”
The next time they met would be when they would officially become husband and wife.
“Mr. Rowe, I know Mr. Beaumont values his reputation, but no matter how much he favors Serena, he can’t let this slide, right?”
Chris rotated his laptop toward Adam. “Take a look. The rookie Levine Studios is promoting, and the singer accusing her of plagiarism–Ethan–contacted Ms. Steele through our firm.”
Adam frowned. “You’re saying Serena privately met Ethan and accepted an infringement case against Levine Studios under her own name?”
Chris smiled sarcastically. “It’s worse. She redirected him to Zephyr Legal. She handed a client to our competitor just to stir trouble for one of our biggest accounts. How do we justify that?”
“The important part is that the tip came from Mr. Nathan’s assistant at Levine Group. That’s practically a warning shot. The father’s stepping in for the son.”
Beaumont Legal represented both Levine Studios and Levine Group’s acquisition deal.
One did not sabotage a client and expect to stay clean. That crossed a professional line no firm tolerated.
Adam’s expression darkened. “Mr. Nathan’s office raised this over something like that?”
“Want proof? I can show the messages.”
“And the timing’s sensitive. The newcomer Levine Studios is pushing happens to be Trevor’s fiancee. Wedding’s next month.”
Adam took the phone and exhaled slowly. That clarified everything.
His two right–hand men had clashed for years. Now the scandal had landed squarely in Eugene’s camp, and favoritism wasn’t an option.
“I understand. I’ll give Levine Studios and Levine Group a proper explanation.”
Chris left satisfied.

Poppy slipped over the moment he stepped outside. “What does Mr. Rowe say?”
Chris’s smile sharpened. “Handled”
“We Eugene take the fat
Chris shook his head. “Unlikely Serena will.”
Bringing Eugene down would take more than this.
But crippling his strongest attorney? That was a win.
