Filed to story: I Got Married Without You
Andrew, who had just received the summons, nodded slightly.
“You didn’t knock before entering my office, so I’ll deduct one month’s salary.”
Paul thought that his older brother would at least panic when he heard about being sued. But to his surprise, Andrew was more concerned about deducting one month’s salary. “Andrew, Jocelyn hired a very famous international lawyer. He has never lost an international lawsuit. Aren’t you afraid you won’t be able to beat him?”
The words “can’t beat” didn’t exist in Andrew’s dictionary of life.
“If you have nothing to do, go help William in Africa.”
Only when one is extremely idle would they make a fuss about such a trivial matter and come bother him. It was simply annoying.
Paul was angered and about to leave, but when he reached the doorway, he remembered his friend’s request and gritted his teeth, stopping his steps and returning to Andrew. “Andrew, why don’t you hire Anthony to handle the lawsuit? He’s known as a top-notch lawyer…”
Andrew gave him a cold glance.
“Evans has a legal team and has never lost a lawsuit.”
“It’s different this time. This is your personal matter, and fighting for custody is something that should be left to professionals, it increases the chances of winning.”
“Are you using this as an opportunity to reconcile Anthony and Edith?”
Caught off guard, Paul immediately fell silent and nodded at him.
“You also know that Anthony breaking up with my sister was because of my parents’ pressure.”
Edith was unaware of this, only Andrew, Rebecca, and Paul knew the truth.
At that time, Paul’s parents despised Anthony, believing he had a negative influence on Paul and took Edith away.
They used Anthony’s family and Edith’s future to threaten and emotionally manipulate Anthony, forcing him to find an excuse to break up with Edith.
As for the exact excuse Anthony used, Paul didn’t know. All he knew was that if it wasn’t for his parents, his friend and his sister would not have broken up. Although later on, his parents showed signs of regret for their extreme actions, Edith was not willing to reconcile.
“Your sister has moved on.”
So many years have passed, it can be said that time has healed the wounds. It’s not very meaningful to try to bring them back together now.
“But he hasn’t moved on from her.”
Paul spoke up for his friend.
“Andrew, give him another chance. Let him struggle once more so that he can finally let go. Otherwise, he’ll be in too much pain.”
Andrew furrowed his brow.
“Your sister is about to enter into a marriage alliance with the Lawrence Family.”
“I know it’s not ideal, but they haven’t gotten married yet, right?”
Paul leaned on the desk, patiently persuading Andrew.
“Andrew, let Anthony use this lawsuit as a way to get closer to my sister again. If my sister still doesn’t forgive him, then I won’t speak up for him ever again…”
Paul rarely begs for himself on behalf of others, this is the first time. After a few seconds of hesitation, Andrew nodded, considering Paul’s face.
“The lawsuit must be foolproof.”
Alice had just passed away, and Jocelyn came knocking on the door. Andrew naturally wouldn’t allow any mistakes in this lawsuit.
“Thank you!”
Paul happily accepted and turned to leave.
Andrew stared at his departing figure and asked, “What about yourself?”
Paul paused his steps again, his body feeling stiff. “Let’s talk about that later.”
He had been avoiding Eva whenever he saw her. In this period of time, he had made a great effort to do so.
Even when he encountered Eva and Jayden’s lovey-dovey dates a few times, he resisted the urge to disturb them.
Paul believed that it wouldn’t be long before he completely forgot about that despicable woman, Eva!
Paul left the CEO’s office and called Anthony to ask where he was. Anthony sent him the location of a golf course.
Paul drove to the golf course and saw Anthony sitting under an umbrella, wearing sunglasses and a mask, staring at a figure in the distance.
Following his gaze, Paul could see Dylan teaching Edith how to swing a golf club.
“She can play golf.”
Anthony didn’t even lift his head, he just said that.
Paul understood what he meant and pulled out a chair to sit next to him.
“It must be Dylan insisting on teaching her.”
Men teaching women how to play golf, using this way to have physical contact.
Paul thought Dylan was some serious person, but he’s just a playboy who tries to take advantage of beautiful women.
“It was your sister’s request.”
Anthony looked up, towards Edith, and raised his chin.
“They made a bet with those two couples. If they get a hole-in-one, they’ll tip fifty thousand.”
So it’s all for a bet, Edith and Dylan are teaming up to play golf, they’re actually pretty good.
Paul doesn’t like how he sees Dylan, he always feels like he’s deceiving his naive sister.
“Come on, let’s go play and knock that Dylan down!”
He took off his jacket, rolled up his shirt sleeves to his elbows, revealing his strong and muscular arms. “Forget it.”
Anthony stopped Paul.
“My sister asked me not to appear in front of her, it’s better not to upset her.”
