“Was bullied?” Marcus stood in front of Laura and slowly tore open the package.


    Laura nced at him, “Kevin told you I was bullied?” It didn’t take much thinking to know it would onlye from Kevin.


    “Yeah,” Marcus responded lightly, tearing off a piece of bread and passing it to Laura’s lips.


    Laura ate it. After a moment of silence, she suddenly smiled. “Mr. Brown, can I assume that this is your way of calming me down by feeding me?”


    Marcus’ expression didn’t change as he tore off another piece of bread and handed it over. “Well.” The sound was soft, so soft that it seemed like a mere illusion.


    But the curve on Laura’s lips grew bigger.


    …


    After a long time, the silent courtroom gradually became a little noisy.


    “What’s going on? Why hasn’t thewyer from Baker Mckenzie LLPe over yet?”


    “How long has the court been in session? Can’t even do the basic punctuality?”


    “Is it because the evidence is not in Laura’s favor that Laura’swyer is noting?”


    Along with the whispers on the scene, thements in the livestreaming room also began to specte a lot, but they all thought that Laura would definitely lose thiswsuit.


    More than 20 minutes had passed.


    Some people in the courtroom couldn’t sit still anymore, and a few of them went up to the stage and whispered a few words in the defendant’swyer’s ear, and got a nod from him.Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    The defendant’swyer took a small wooden hammer and tapped it gently on the table.


    He looked at Laura and said in a polite but cold tone, “Miss Taylor, if yourwyer does note, you will have to withdraw the charge ording to thew.”


    With these words, Laura remained calm, but thements on the livestreaming became more and more frantic.


    “I have a guess. Do you guys think this could be Kimberly’s trick?”


    “I also just know that if the intiff’swyer is not present, then the intiff is going to withdraw the charge. I think it makes sense.”


    “Don’t specte. I’ll bet it was Kimberly who did it!”


    Laura said to the defendant’swyer, “We’ve been waiting for twenty minutes, so it’s okay to wait a little longer, right?”


    The defendant’swyer frowned, but couldn’t say anything to refute it.


    Kimberly, who was sitting next to him, leaned back in her chair and gave Laura a smug look.


    Laura saw it, but chose to ignore it and turned to the court, “I’m sorry to waste your time, but please be patient and wait, the truth is always more than just time.”


    Marcus noticed Kimberly’s implied provocative nce, and he leaned forward to block her sight. He would not allow someone to try to spoil the good mood he had managed to help Laura get.


    Seeing that the time was about toe for the appointment, Kimberly picked up her bag that was on herp and prepared to get up and leave.


    “Just wait until Laura withdraws the charge.” Before she could finish her words to herwyer, the golden doors of the courthouse, were suddenly opened.


    “Sorry…” The suit–dwyer ran in with a pile of papers in his arms.


    He gasped with difficulty and intermittently exined to the numerous curious people who were looking over, “I’m really sorry for the dy because there was a car ident on the road… If there are no other questions, the trial can begin now.”
