Chapter 1252


    Before thewsuit, Ted had only seen Ste in photos shared by their ssmates in the group chat


    during the wedding.


    Ted simply found her attractive back then and nothing more.


    He did not pay much attention to her. He could not believe that someone as prestigious and


    unattainable as Keegan would marry a woman with only superficial beauty. He figured that Keegan


    knew that too, which was why he never brought her to any ss reunions.


    Ted still had the same impression of Ste beforeing to this cafe.


    However, he suddenly felt like he was the superficial one for judging a person solely based on their


    looks. He realized that Ste was actually a very interesting person.


    ‘Keegan probably didn’t bring her out because he was over- possessive rather than being ashamed of


    her.’


    Ted chuckled softly as he thought about that and said in a gentler tone than before, “Is there anything


    else you’d like to ask?”


    “You mentioned that Be’s case is handled by your friend’sw firm, right? From your experience, how


    many years is she going to get?”


    “It depends on how capable the intiffswyer is.”


    “How capable do you think he is?”


    “He’s not bad, but he lost to Mr. Moore in thest defamation case,” Ted said.


    Ste’s eyelid twitched. “Are you the intiff’swyer?”


    “Yeah.” Ted smile faintly.


    “I’m a little surprised. Is there any chance that Be would turn out to be innocent?”


    “There’s solid evidence against her, so I doubt it.”


    Ste thought for a moment before saying, “Try to demand marypensation during the trial. I


    heard that Andrea’s parents are not living a veryfortable life.”


    “Sure, but I can’t guarantee anything. It seems like Be is already liquidating her assets. The amount


    she has to pay for breaching the contract is enormous, and the properties she purchased earlier are


    also being sold. I will do my best to demand it, but it may not be much.”


    Ste nodded. “Thank you for that.”


    She paused before continuing, “Has it been ten minutes yet?”


    “There are thirty seconds left. Would you like me to show more kindness?”


    Ste immediately waved her hands. “Bye, take care.”


    Ted was very efficient and sent a letter to the kindergarten the next day.


    Ste’s aunt, Lydia Night, was scolding the kitchen staff in the kindergarten’s kitchen.


    “Who threw this bag of meat away?”


    She had a stern expression as she held the bag of meat taken from the trash can. She swept her gaze


    across everyone, “Who threw it?”


    A woman in her forties stuttered. “M-Ms. Night, the meat’s color didn’t look so right, so I threw it away.”


    Lydia opened the bag and took a piece of meat out. “What’s wrong with the color? Isn’t meat supposed


    to be this color?” she said with a cold face.


    The short-haired woman said in a low voice, “It has a strange smell…”


    “What smell? I can’t smell anything at all.” Lydia handed that piece of meat to another kitchen helper.


    “Take a sniff. Is there any strange smell?”


    That person did as she said and was immediately met with a sour smell. She frowned. However, she


    was worried she might get fired, so she lowered her head and said softly, “I can’t smell anything.”


    Lydia nced back at the woman who threw the bag of meat. ’ Did you hear that? You’re the only one


    who could smell it. Are you a dog?”


    The woman put on a displeased look as she clenched her fists tightly and said bravely, ’ Ms. Night, the


    meat is past its expiry date, and we’re not supposed to cook it even though there’s no smell. We’re


    cooking for the children, and they don’t have a strong stomach. We can never bear the responsibility if


    anything bad happens to them.”


    Lydia sneered. “You’re just a kitchen helper. Are you telling me how to do things? I used to run a


    restaurant back then, and I know better than all of you here whether the meat is edible or not. This


    kindergarten has been operating for so many years, and I’ve been doing the same thing. Have you


    seen any child getting sick because of this? The parents havee to visit the kitchen, and none of


    them made anyments. Who do you think you are to question me?”


    The woman’s expression turned awful. Her colleague next to her pulled her sleeve, signaling her to


    stop talking back.This is from N?velDrama.Org.
