I Ctrl+Alt+Deleted My Ex and Ctrl+C'd His Uncle novel Chapter 42

**Through Silent Meadows We Trace Stories Left Behind Yesterday by Asa Rowan Flint**

**Chapter 42**

A mere thirty minutes later, Ryan Mason stepped into the bustling restaurant, the soft hum of conversation enveloping him like a warm blanket. He didn’t quite fit the mold of the typical serious lawyer one might envision; instead, he wore a light gray hoodie that seemed to soften his sharp features. A gentle smile danced at the corners of his eyes, making him appear warm and approachable, reminiscent of the friendly neighbor who always had time for a chat.

Sophie, seated at a small corner table, felt a flutter of nerves as she watched him approach. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, she wasted no time and dove straight into the heart of the matter.

“Mr. Mason, my situation is rather intricate,” she began, her voice steady despite the turmoil within. “It may involve the Morgan Group. Would you consider taking my case?”

She had meticulously researched the legal team representing the Morgan Group; they were a formidable force, known for their unyielding tenacity and undefeated record. If she hoped to reclaim anything from them, she would need to breach that ironclad fortress first.

Adding to her trepidation was the fact that the Mason and Morgan families shared a cordial relationship. Would Ryan’s loyalty to his family’s connections sway his decision? Would he refuse her plea simply because of that bond?

“Please, share the details,” Ryan replied, his demeanor calm and collected, yet his eyes hinted at a deeper curiosity.

Sophie took a deep breath, her fingers clenched tightly around the edge of the table, her resolve hardening. “I’m Liora.”

For a brief moment, Ryan froze, shock flickering across his face. “I was under the impression that Liora was associated with the Morgan Group—”

“I was never an employee of the Morgans,” Sophie interjected firmly, cutting him off. “Only Liam knows my true identity as Liora. The predicament I’m in is that I lack any proof.”

A heavy silence settled between them, thick with unspoken thoughts and unyielding tension.

Sophie managed a bitter smile, her heart heavy with the weight of memories. “You might be aware of my past with Liam. Back then, I assisted him in establishing his foothold in the company by designing for him. He was the one who registered the name Liora, and all the profits flowed straight into his account.”

“Now, I want to reclaim the name Liora—and every cent I earned under it,” she asserted, her voice laced with determination.
