Stealing Your Heart Chapter 790

He hesitated for a moment. “We’ll just have to accept it if it’s not meant to be.”

Qin Ya said it directly.

Mr. Chen, the lawyer who brought the woman in, knocked on the door.

He wanted to know if Su Zhan had decided to take up her case.

Su Zhan replied, “I’ve yet to decide.”

Let’s see first.

Mr. Chen continued. “There are pros and cons if we want to take up this case. If we win, we’ll be famous, but if we fail, we might get ourselves in trouble. These people are not ordinary folks.”

Su Zhan asked him, “What are you trying to say?”

He used to care a lot about fame and reputation but not anymore. If the deceased were truly the victim, he would have accepted the case.

After all, justice must prevail!

“Let’s not take the risk. If we fail, we might lose all our…”

“I know what you’re trying to say. Let me think about it,” Su Zhan interrupted, “You know me, Mr. Chen. I’ve not taken up cases for quite some time, but I do have my own principles.”

Mr. Chen warned, “You don’t want to offend these people.”

“I know,” Su Zhan responded.

Mr. Chen let out a sigh. “I hope you’ll make the right decision.”

He then turned around and left the office.

Once Mr. Chen left, Qin Ya walked up to Su Zhan, “What’s your thought on this?”

Su Zhan did not answer her. Instead, he brought Qin Ya to the front desk and asked the receptionist, “Did that elderly woman leave behind her contact details?”

“Yes, we have her address.” The receptionist showed him the record. He then placed the record on his desk, grabbed Qin Ya’s hand, and walked out of his office.

Qin Ya had no clue what Su Zhan was thinking. “What exactly is on your mind?”

“I want to take up this case.”

Qin Ya asked, “Why? I thought that Mr. Chen told you not to?”

“Under what circumstances would a woman choose to die with her child? There must be more to this than meets the eye. I want to know the truth. I want justice for her,” Su Zhan said while walking.

Qin Ya kept mum, but deep in her heart, she supported his decision.

A lawyer who fights for the right cause is a good lawyer.

They then drove all the way to the elderly woman’s house.

She stayed in a three-story building on the outskirts of the 5th Ring Road. There was a courtyard with a funeral tent in the building. Beneath the tent, there were two coffins. Two ash urns that were covered in red cloths were also displayed in front of the coffins.

The elderly woman was sitting and mourning in front of the coffins together with a few people who seemed to be very close with her family.

Just when Su Zhan and Qin Ya parked their car and were about to walk towards her, a few more cars arrived in front of the entrance.

More than ten people got down from the car and marched right into the funeral tent.
