The True Lady Strikes Back novel (Cecilia and Christopher) novel Chapter 108

Chapter 108
Although Juliana wanted Felix to shut up right now, she knew she would not have a chance to act until he was sent to the detention center.
She thought, “Even if Felix confesses everything, the police will still need time to gather evidence. And this time is enough for me to send him to meet the Grim Reaper!”
“Felix, the harm you’ve done to me, I’ll soon repay you.” Juliana said through gritted teeth. She felt much better afterward.
At that moment, she still did not know her identity as a member of the Quigley family would soon be exposed.
An hour later, Bernard and Abigail arrived at Quilton. Since their biological daughter was there, they visited at least once a year. They were somewhat familiar with Quilton.
After they got out of the railway station, they took a taxi.
Abigail told the driver, “Go to the best law firm.”
The driver looked at them from the rearview mirror and reminded them, “Quilton’s best law firm is Glory Law Firm. You need to make an appointment first.”
“Just go when you’re told to! What’s the nonsense?”
Abigail thought there was nothing in the world that money could not accomplish.
Even if she did not have an appointment, she could use money to buy privileges.
When he saw that his good intentions were being taken for granted, the driver immediately fell silent and drove to Glory Law Firm.

The lawyers at Glory Law Firm were not easy to hire, even with
money.
Appointment was only the first threshold,
Even with a lot of money, it was useless if the case did not align with the lawyer’s interests.
Abigail felt snubbed, muttered angrily as she left, and found a nearby lawyer. She settled for anyone she could find.
Then, she went to the police station,
Although Felix was not a frequent visitor to the police station, many people around him had been in custody before. So he knew he had to remain silent until the lawyer arrived.
If he accidentally fell for the police’s questioning tactics, it could lead to big trouble.
So before Bernard and Abigail, accompanied by their lawyer, arrived at the police station, Felix remained silent.
He pretended not to have heard anything, even when faced with his previous confession.
Soon, Abigail met Felix with the lawyer by her side.
When she looked at Felix with a bruised neck, she could not help but feel distressed.
“Felix, how did you get hurt? Who did it?”
Felix could not be bothered by a small talk with Abigail. He turned to the lawyer and asked, “How confident are you in getting me acquitted of all charges?”
The lawyer did not know the details of the case, so he could n give Felix an answer.
“Whether I can get you acquitted depends on the facts of the case. You need to be honest with me so that I can formulate a
defence strategy to heln vou as much as possible”

“How good are you at handling legal cases? I have money but need a lawyer who can win the case.” He emphasized the phrase “win the case” even more.
The lawyer immediately understood what Felix meant. He was willing to use any means necessary as long as they could win the
case.
He smiled and handed over his qualifications and records of service to Felix.
“Mr. Quigley, after you review this, you should know my qualifications. However, I want to emphasize that my fees are not low.”
Felix could tell from the lawyer’s smile that he was not a reputable attorney.
After he reviewed the resume, Felix was very satisfied.
“Mr. Sp**er, money is not a problem. Let’s sign the power of attorney first, and then we can discuss the case and fees.”
The lawyer was bound to the client once a power of attorney was signed.
Even if the client committed a crime, the lawyer must find ways to help reduce the sentence or even secure an acquittal.
Caden Sp**er handed the printed power of attorney to Felix and said, “Mr. Quigley, please take a look. If everything looks fine to you, go ahead and sign it.”
After Felix signed, he told Caden about all the crimes he had committed.
Abigail stood nearby and was utterly shocked. She was unable to believe her son had become an evil criminal.
When Felix stopped to drink water, she asked with her voice trembling, “Felix, all those things you just said, were you just

“Shut up! Get out if you don’t want to hear it!”
“I’m just worried about you. How could you do such outrageous things?”
“You should ask your precious daughter that. I’m just an
accomplice while she’s the mastermind!”
Abigail shook her head at the thought of Juliana, who was gentle and obedient every time they met.
“No way. Why would Julia do such things?”
Felix sneered. “Blame yourself for that. You swapped her to a wealthy family. But her true identity was exposed. As the real daughter returned, she had to do something to secure her position, didn’t she? Otherwise, how would we have all this money to spend?”
Abigail was left speechless by that response.
However, she quickly accepted the reality. She turned to Caden and asked, “You seem quite capable. Can you keep my son out of prison?”
“Once Mr. Quigley has provided a full account of everything, I can assess the situation.”
Felix hurriedly continued and provided a full account of everything.
After he listened, Caden questioned, “Mr. Quigley, are you sure there’s no evidence left behind?”
“I can only say that I haven’t left any evidence that would incriminate myself. As for whether the police can find
eyewitnesses and evidence to convict me, that’s not something I can control.”
After Felix finished speaking, he looked at Caden and said, “Now it’s your turn to speak. What are the chances of getting me

“That will depend on the police investigation. But considering you’re an accomplice, even if you’re convicted, I can ensure you won’t spend many days in jail.”
With that, Caden added, “But the condition is that Juliana has to bear the charges.”
Felix had committed too many crimes, and the police could always find some evidence.
Yet, those cases had no direct connection to Juliana. Unless she voluntarily confessed, Felix would have to take the blame.
Felix, who knew Juliana well, snorted. “Not only will Juliana not confess, but she will also go to great lengths to make me keep quiet.”
Caden understood the meaning of keeping quiet, but Abigail did not.
She still held hope for Juliana and advised, “Felix, don’t worry. If the police do find evidence to convict you, Julia won’t just stand by. Until it’s the last resort, don’t reveal her involvement.”
“Old lady, are you really st**id or pretending to be naïve? Juliana only wants to become a prominent young lady, not a member of the Quigley family. If it weren’t for her using me, she would have ended our whole family a long time ago!” Besides, he hired someone to S**ually assault Juliana and betrayed her. Juliana would not let him go.
When he thought of that, Felix remembered another thing.
“By the way, Cecilia already suspected my relationship with Juliana and used samples from the both of us for a paternity test. So, the fact that I’m Juliana’s biological brother will soon be known to the Yancey family. And your deliberate swapping babies act back in the day won’t stay hidden for much longer, either.”

“What should I do? The Yancey family will definitely not let us
go.”
“You should go and talk to Juliana and figure out a way. She’s full of mischief and has all sorts of crooked ideas.”
After he said that, Felix told Abigail about the hospital where Juliana was.
“You better disguise yourself as a nurse and go see her. Tell her I haven’t said anything to the police.”
As long as he and Juliana had not completely fallen out, it was best to avoid both parties suffering in confrontation.
Abigail nodded. “I know.”
Caden informed Felix, “I’ll go back and sort out your case first. Let’s discuss it tomorrow. If the police interrogate you, don’t say anything.”
“Okay! I’ll prepay 20,000 dollars for your legal fees. The rest will be paid based on your performance. How does that sound?”
“Sure!”
After Caden and Abigail left the police station, the former received a transfer of 20,000 dollars from the latter.
“Mr. Sp*der, you must help my son avoid conviction. He’s the last hope of the Quigley family. We can’t afford any mishaps.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll do my best.”
“I’ll do my best to make your son serve imprisonment forever,” Caden thought.
On the surface, he appeared to be a ruthless lawyer who would not hesitate to use any means to win a case.
Actually, he was working for Matthias, specifically handling some shady legal disputes on his behalf.
