Chapter 73
Mason sat in the car, taking a moment to rx with his eyes closed.
Suddenly, he remembered what Aiden had mentioned about that student who married her Romeo.
Mason thought of Zoe again and their long-time acquaintance.
''Did she feel the same way when she married me? That she married her Romeo with a lifetime of
companionship?''
Although Mason had a steady temperament, he felt a bit restless about Zoe''s situationtely.
He dialed his assistant''s number, asking, "How''s the task I assigned you?"
The reply came promptly, "Mr. Mason, I''ve already contacted Mr. Liam. In the next 12 hours, Mr.
Liam''s flight willnd at the Brookesville International Airport. He will immediately join the legal team
to handle Noah''s case."
Mason inquired in a calm tone, "How certain is he?"
There was a brief silence on the other end before the response. "Mr. Liam quoted a sky-high fee of
300 thousand. He said that he is hundred percent confident."
Mason trusted Liam''s capabilities. After hanging up, he intended to rest his eyes, as there was an
important engagement at noon. However, he found himself opening the photo album and selecting
a picture.
It was a photo of Zoe.
It was taken a long time ago while she slept, not long after their marriage. He often teased Zoe until
she cried and eventually fell asleep from exhaustion. Her porcin-like face and lustrous ck hair
Back then, Mason didn''t particrly like her, but for some inexplicable reason, he had taken this
photo. Even during business tripssting ten days or more, he would asionally take it out and
reminisce. Once, he couldn''t resist the temptation, and that sensation still lingered in his memory.
Mason added a passcode to the photo, thinking perhaps this was the dark side of men.
No man was exempted from being lustful.
…
At nine o''clock in the evening, Zoe sat on the couch, quietly watching the news about the return of
the chiefwyer, Liam Worshem. The TV screen disyed Liam''s high-profile appearance,
dering his return to the legal field.
The handsome yet stern face of Liam faced the microphone as he dered, "Fame and fortune are
not the most important to me. For me, the justice of thew is a lifelong pursuit."

Zoe listened absentmindedly, understanding that this was what Mason wanted her to see. He
wanted her to know that only he could bring Liam back, and only he could ensure her brother''s case
had hope. Of course, if she didn''t go back with him, all of this would be revoked.
The next time Liam appeared on television, he would have a different script.
This was the truth.
Her phone rang. It was a call from Mia.
After answering, Mia couldn''t contain her joy. "Zoe, did you see the news? Mr. Liam is back! There''s
hope for your brother''s case."
Her voice softened. "Regardless, we''ll do our best! Zoe, I know you''re going through a tough time...
Your dad and I can live frugally, and once your dad''s health improves, I can find a job to support the
family. As long as your brotheres out, everything will be okay."
Mia spoke, tears streaming down her face.
She felt sorry for Zoe.
After all, she had watched the child grow up.
Zoe remained expressionless.
She didn''t reveal the truth to Mia. She simplyforted her in a hoarse voice, "Mia, don''t worry. Tell
Dad to rest assured too. I will definitely get Mr. Liam to help my brother with thewsuit."
Mia cried tears of joy.
