StarNovelChapter 0163 +25 BONUS The past weeks have been blissful and I finally felt like had my life back and I was actually living it. Having helped Mark to the extent I could, assured that he was fine and his position as President could still be salvaged, I could finally focus on work and myself.
My heart filled with warmth and my stomach flipped with joy just at the thought of the dates I have been having more frequently with Lucas. I have also been having more tto see Lucas. It was like we both had a silent agreement to salvage the little twe have whenever we weren't working and focus more on our relationship. Since I knew Lucas, way before we departed, I had always knew he was a sweet boy and would grow into a sweeter man but Lucas had wowed me.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDespite the occassional news and supdates from my lawyer about Bella that sometimes disconcerted me, a day hadn't gone by that I didn't blush, smile sheepishly or laugh wholeheartedly like a lovesick teenager during a phone call or video call. Lucas keeps showinga side I never thought any man had to them. A side that I used to believe could only be possessed by fictional men. In a nutshell, Lucas had been perfect.
As bregrudging as it may sound, I have also had tto fully focus on Bella's case. I disliked this need to. tend to her case but the fact that I was the first person that was reached out to must be a sign. It was an opportunity I had to use well. Perhaps, Bella will cout of it a new woman.
I was able to get a clip of when Bella dropped her gun with an unremorseful exclamation and then she out her havds up in the air and said, "I have a mental illness, I want to see my lawyer" I almost went crazy.

I had bitterly and frustratedly complained about it to my lawyer, bemoaned that it would only work against her before my lawyer softly calmeddown that there was no problem at all.
He said the fact that she mentioned it at the crscene will give him a good defense.
Il raised my brows as he explained how the whole admission will help in getting the judge to be lenient on her.
I mentally clapped my hands as I realized that Bella had actually had everything properly planned out. If I had to say the truth, I was impressed. If she wasn't such a hateful bitch and we hadn't got on the wrong foot, I might have given her a position in our company I had to be present the day the case was being held at court while Grace had stayed at work. Once again, I was impressed at my lawyer's skills. He was a sweet talker. After a sound argument, he made the judge believe that Bella was under the influence of her derangement, even her statement that day was under-the influence of her mental illness as she was unaware of what she was really saying. And Bella, to my expectations, played along by acting like she was out of it once in a while. Once again, I was reminded of how much of a good actress she was. My lawyer also backed all of his claims by providing evidences of blackmails from Isaac, phone call recordings and texts of him threatening to ruin Bella's life or make her lose her unborn child if she didn't feed his addiction by giving him money, there were also pictorial evidences where Isaac was either rough handling Bella or standing over her beaten form like a starved predator.

I was wowed. I didn't even bother to think where and how he had been able to get all of these because it was beyond me. Afterall, I paid him handsomely. RULE #1
