"Lose? How is that possible!" Yoel drank up the coffee in front of him, and his expression was full of
certainty. "Adrian, this case is related to her daughter's life. Of course, she should think about it
carefully, but in the end, she still has to ask me. I have asked around and every lawyer in A City has
long known what is going to happen with this case, so no one dares to take it."
"Is it? But a lawyer is different. A lawsuit depends on one's real ability. It's not enough to just go up
there and make a fuss."
The man sitting opposite Yoel was called Adrian Jacob.
"Hey, what are you afraid of? I have some old friends who are ready to help her. When that happens,
let's put on a show. Anyway, whoever is involved in this case will lose. If I lose, I may still be able to
comfort Auntie Harington's injured heart."
Yoel was leaning against the sofa and his expression brimmed with confidence.
"Treat me to a meal if things go well."
"Okay, help me find out. We're going to choose a place where we can meet the beautiful lady from last
time."
"Xenia Lowell? Didn't she clearly refuse you several times already? For the first time, I saw you get
refused so many times and yet you're still unwilling to give up. Did you really fall in love with her?"
Adrian looked at Yoel with a curious expression.
These two men had good appearances, but the same could not be said for their careers. On the
surface, they were models, but in fact, they helped people take photos for Amazon, and occasionally
appeared on magazines, merely standing on the platforms.
As for their professions, they cheated rich women of their money.
"I just think it's interesting."
When Yoel was talking about this, his long eyelashes were a little restrained, with another meaning
hidden behind them.
"I think so. She's no longer that young and is a few years older than you are. She's not your cup of tea
at all." Adrian laughed and stood up, asking, "Shall we go? Let's have a drink."
"I'm afraid I can't."
Yoel stood up and left.
Sure enough, ten days later, Amelia contacted Yoel.
However, the main reason she did so was that Amelia had met many lawyers but no one else was
willing to help her.
She was forced to do so. Otherwise, no one would give such an important case to a new person.
However, Amelia kept this matter from Hector.
Amelia was extremely anxious. Coralie, on the other hand, was trying her best to stay calm for her
pregnancy, so she did not know about it at all.
Hera didn't know about Coralie's abduction. Regarding her hospitalization this time, she merely thought NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
that Coralie was careless.
She took Hendric to see Coralie. As soon as they entered the hospital, she said, "Coralie, you are
really careless. You are pregnant. Why don't I take care of you once you're discharged?"
Knowing that Coralie was pregnant, Hera was very happy as she also liked children.
"It's okay, Mom. I'll bring Hendric back in a few days. You don't have to work so hard."
Coralie sat on the bed and invited Hera to sit down.
She felt very apologetic that she had to send Hendric to her mother's place.
"It's not hard. Just let him stay with me. After all, Wayne is not at home now and you don't come back
often. I'll have to accompany him." "Yes, I'll accompany Grandma on behalf of you, Mom."
Hendric stood next to Hera and spoke like an adult.
"Hendric, Grandma is in poor health. You must try your best to help her as much as you can, okay?"
Coralie brought Hendric to her side and told him.
"Yes, Mom, don't worry."
Hearing Coralie's words, Hera immediately said, "Hendric is very obedient. Don't worry."
"Mom," Hendric walked up to Coralie and looked at her slightly bulging belly. He asked her, "Is the baby
in your belly a little brother or sister?"
"I don't know. Who do you wish for?"
Coralie had been pregnant for three months, and it was starting to show.
After the last time, because her progesterone and HCG levels were always stable, it was clear that the
baby was in a healthy state. The hospital also recommended tocolysis.
Three months had passed, but Skylar was still worried, so he let her continue to stay in the hospital.
"I hope it's a little sister!"
Hendric said excitedly.
"I also want a little sister for you."
Coralie said as she caressed Hendric's head.
Hera also sat there and nodded. "It's good to have a daughter. A son and a daughter make a good
pair!"
"Wow! It's so lively in here!"
While Hera and Hendric were playing in the ward, Xenia also came in with food.
"Hello, Auntie Lowell."
Hendric was also very happy to see Xenia. When Coralie was in S country, Xenia often looked after
him and was very close to him.
Xenia had come to see Coralie twice when she was hospitalized.
Every time she visited, she brought a lot of things with her, which made Coralie feel a little
embarrassed. "Xenia, I'm very happy that you're here to accompany me. Every time, you bring so
much good food. Are you afraid that I can't get fat enough?"
"The fatter you get, the better. Besides, Auntie is here," Xenia turned around and put something by
Hera's leg. "Auntie, I didn't know that you were here. You can take these delicious food back."
As Xenia was giving out the food, Harvey came over.
He had just heard his colleague mention that Xenia had come over and had specially combed his hair
before coming. "Xenia, you're here."
Harvey stood at the door and thought for a long time and only thought of this sentence.
Xenia was originally excited, but when she saw Harvey, she immediately retracted her expression and
replied calmly, "Yes."
"Are you free tonight? I..."
"I'm here to accompany Coralie. I'll be accompanying her today and don't plan on going anywhere."
Before Harvey could finish, Xenia interrupted him.
She was very certain about what Harvey was going to say.
"No, no. Since Hendric and my mom are all here today, you can go on a date with Dr. Felton."
Coralie did not dare to be the villain, so she quickly stated her stand.
"Coralie, you can't forget me just because your mother is here now. I'll stay with you today."
Xenia immediately made a gesture of hugging her thigh.
She was sulking with Harvey.
"T-Then I'll come back later."
Harvey also noticed that there were too many people at the moment, so it was not convenient for him
to speak, hence he left.
As soon as he left, Hendric tilted his head and asked, "Auntie Lowell, did you quarrel with Uncle
Harvey?"
"No, I didn't."
Xenia decisively denied.
"Mom said a lying child is not a good one. I know that you quarreled with Uncle Harvey. Mom said that
you should talk nicely and not quarrel."
Hendric's words resembled that of an adult's.
"Did your mother say that children shouldn't speak like adults?"
Xenia saw that Hendric attributed Coralie's words to her, so she took him to her side.
"No, she didn't..."
"I will tell you today that children should not speak like adults and should not interfere with adult
matters, got it?"
"Okay..."
Coralie saw that Xenia was in a bad mood and had even argued with Hendric, so she quickly said,
"Xenia, don't be angry with Dr. Felton. Every time you come, you are angry with him. Be careful
because he might give up one day."
Coralie had always felt that Harvey had been wronged. He could not decide his mother's attitude.
"In any case, if he doesn't settle it, we won't be able to get married. If we can't get married, then we
shouldn't be together. Otherwise, it will only add to the pain."
Xenia turned to look out the door, feeling disappointed.
However, she told herself in her heart that if the result was doomed to be disappointing, she should not
be hopeful.
Although Xenia said so, it didn't seem that way to Coralie. She watched Xenia's unmoved expression
and asked, "You wouldn't have moved on to someone else, would you?"
