When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1262


    Years ago, Ashton’s parents had been framed as the scapegoats for Ezra and a few prominent families


    in K City. It eventually led to their deaths. That tragedy meant that Louis was naturally cautious about


    his actions when dealing with Ezra.


    Like Ashton had said, though, excessive caution would only allow them to behave even more


    lawlessly. Facing them head-on is inevitable. The only thing we can do is to reduce the number of


    people caught in the crossfire. If we don’t act now, our future generations will suffer under them as well.


    “Uncle Louis, can I say something?” I finally blurted after some hesitation.


    “Of course. What’s on your mind?”


    “Well, here’s what I think. If I remember correctly, the promotion process and the candidate details are


    supposed to be announced to the public. In that case, can’t we do the same for those corrupt members


    in the department? We can show the entire trial procedure online through the official channels. The


    public can be the judge.” Strength in numbers may even bend thew, and it might be a good strategy


    to catch them unawares.


    Ezra may be powerful, but even he is no match for public outcry.


    Louis’s expression changed as he mulled over my suggestion.


    Meanwhile, John looked at me as the joy he had disyed in the car returned to his demeanor. “I


    guess it’s really different once you be awyer. Even the way you look at things is craftier.”


    I rolled my eyes. “Are you trying to say that I was dumb before? That doesn’t reallye across as


    praise, you know.”


    “You’re just imagining things.” John walked over and leaned on the desk. He teased, “You’re my sister.


    I’m always proud of you, and I mean every word that I said.”


    “Letty, have you started your legal apprenticeship?” Louis changed the topic abruptly. “Whichw firm


    did you go to?”


    “Tinsel Group,” I answered. After a moment’s thought, I added, “But my first day at work was rather


    unpleasant. I was wondering if I should transfer to anotherw firm. I haven’t signed any contracts, so


    it’s not toote for me to change my mind.”


    “Why are you still thinking about that? Just buy yourself a brand neww firm and be the boss. Then


    you won’t need to do overtime,” John voiced.


    John never blinked an eye at his spending, no matter how extravagant the sum. His nonchnce with


    his wealth was exceptionally obvious in this situation.


    “Stop joking around. Legal apprentices can’t go around opening their ownw firms. You think I can just


    hire some bigshotwyers and their apprentices or something?” I knew he had good intentions, but I


    needed to nip this impossibility in the bud.


    Louis hadn’t uttered a single word until now. When I finally looked at him, I realized he had knitted his


    brows in contemtion.


    John followed my gaze. He didn’t hesitate before he opened his mouth. “Uncle Louis, what are you


    thinking about?”


    Louis came to with a jerk. Sighing, he said tiredly, “Thatw firm has helped the Zieglers and the


    Trivetts with countless cases in the past. If we really go to court, I don’t think anywyer we have could


    win someone from Tinsel Group.”


    “No wonder Tinsel Group has been giving me so many special privileges to keep my apprenticeship.


    Turns out they had ulterior motives all this time.” I was stunned at the revtion.Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    I should’ve thought of this sooner. Tinsel Group’s the bestw firm in the country, and they must’ve


    helped Ezra and his lobbyists to clean up a bunch of his dirty acts. They probably gave me such good


    benefits to entice me to stay, so that I would be entangled in their dirty acts. Then, they could use


    that to manipte the Stovall family.


    An image of Zander shed through my mind. He had always looked like a young man on track to


    fulfilling his dreams of exacting justice. He may have seemed wooden, but that wouldn’t have stopped


    him from bing an impressivewyer. What a pity he’s dirty like the rest of them. s, he can only


    be ackey to their wrongdoings.


    “Then, you shouldn’t report to work tomorrow, Letty. It may seem peaceful out there, but it’s a bloody


    battlefield. It’s much safer to stay at home,” John cut in.
