Mr. Kane Got cklisted By Eleven Jewell Chapter 884
Chapter 884
Ste was bewildered.
Marshall lowered his gaze and said softly, “Was it because I didn’t win your case with
Albert, so you don’t trust me anymore and would rather consult an intern than me?’
Ste was stunned.
She quickly denied his question, “No. Why would you think so? Besides, it’s not like
we lost the case; we just dropped it. Furthermore, it’s not your fault. Who would’ve
thought that Albert and I were not biologically rted?”
Marshall lifted his gaze. He sounded a little hurt, ’Then why are you avoiding me?”
Ste was at a loss for words.
“I’m not avoiding you…” Ste suddenly did not know how to exin herself.
‘I can’t possibly say it’s because Keegan’s jealous, right? After all, we haven’t gotten
back together. And even if we get back together, I still don’t want to tell outsiders too
much,’ she thought.
“I feel like the earnings from cases like mine are peanuts to you. Compared to your
earnings from the divorce cases in the high society, which you usually deal with, my
case practically holds you up from earning big bucks. You’re helping me solely
because you’re my friend, and I don’t want to always trouble you.”
Marshall pursed his lips. After a long while, he finally said, “I never found your matters
troublesome, and I’ve been feeling guilty that I couldn’t help you recover the
inheritance your mother had left. If I could help you in this matter, it would slightly
reduce the guilt I’m feeling. So, don’t push me away, okay?’
‘Is this the pride of a top-tierwyer? He can’t let go of this matter because he doesn’t
allow himself to fail? Be it him helping me handle my mother’s affairs after her passing
or him representing me in the twowsuits, he’s really helped me way too much. I
can’t push away a friend who’s helped me when I was at a low point,’ she thought.
“Well, I’ll see when I’m free and get back to you in the next few days.”
Marshall smiled, “I’ll be waiting for your call.”
Ste also smiled with her eyes. Then, she asked in a nosy manner, “You’re not done
with the divorce case yet?”
She suddenly remembered who the unappealing, bald, middle-aged man was when
she was chatting with Marshall just now.
‘Isn’t he the person who kept pestering Marshallst time, wanting to negotiate
something with him? Having more than one mistress is one thing; he even has an
illegitimate child. His wife wants to recover the money he spent on his mistress. I’m so
nosy; I can’t remember other things, but I remember such gossip so well,’ she thought.
Marshall looked at her curious expression and chuckled.
“This is my client’s privacy,” he said.
Ste covered her mouth and quickly said in a low voice, “Pretend I didn’t ask.”
“But I can tell you,” Marshall also lowered his voice. “The hearing is next week. Based
on the current evidence, my client has a high chance of winning the case.’
Ste immediately said words of ttery, “Well, of course! Do they know who the
“Law Pro?” Marshall did not understand.
Ste exined, ‘Yeah, the Top Gun in the legal profession.”
Marshall paused. Then, heughed, and his gaze on her softened further.
Stuart texted Ste, asking why she still was not upstairs yet.
Ste did not dilly-dally around. She stood up and said, “The director is asking for me,
so I’ll be going upstairs now. I’ll contact you in due time.”
Marshall nodded and only averted his gaze after seeing her enter the elevator.
Many left during the second round. Leighton had a ne he needed to catch, while
two actors had gotten sent home because they were drunk. However, the rest were no
better and had gotten more or less tipsy.
Not long after Ste went upstairs, two more actors got drunk. Besides that, many
staff members were already married and had a family, so their family members would
worry about them if they went home toote.
This was why the second roundsted only briefly and ended soon.
Ste helped her drunk co-workers into the car. Then, Stuart drunkenly stuck his head
out of the car and asked, “How are you going home?’
