Lucy is your intern lawyer. She will definitely help you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey sneered.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What do you want to do?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Write it down, or you may go back on your words!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Since she wanted to leave here, then she would grant her wish.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Alright!&#8221; Audrey agreed.<\/p>\n<p>Lucy pulled Audrey back worriedly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Audrey, this bet can&#8217;t be made. If at that time&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Before Lucy could finish, Audrey patted her shoulder and interrupted her, &#8220;Don&#8217;t worry. Nothing will happen. I can&#8217;t let you be bullied.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lucy was flattered and looked at Audrey. She was moved and was about to tear.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Audrey.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Alright, go get the paper.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Okay!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ashly and Audrey made a betting agreement. Both of them signed their names on it.<\/p>\n<p>Ashly took one of the agreements to Audrey and kept the other.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Audrey, now we made an agreement. I hope that you won&#8217;t go back on your words.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey smiled, &#8220;I always keep my word.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ashly smiled shrewdly.<\/p>\n<p>Before coming to Square Law Firm, she had heard that Audrey was very powerful. Now, it seemed that she was just so-so.<\/p>\n<p>Concerned with Deegan, they had already won the first trial of the case, and the lawyer on the second trial was just a fledgling lawyer. There was no need to be frightened. Deegan was certain to win.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey made a bet with her. It was a bite off more than she can chew.<\/p>\n<p>As long as Audrey was chased out of the law firm, Deegan would definitely focus more on her as she was the one who kicked Audrey away.<\/p>\n<p>When she thought of this, she felt even happier.<\/p>\n<p>When the court trial came to an end, Deegan would win the case. And then, she could take the agreement and drive Audrey out of the firm.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>In court.<\/p>\n<p>Carley had almost given up many times in Deegan&#8217;s clumsy words. However, when she thought of what Audrey had told her, she stood up bravely and took out solid evidence to overthrow all the evidence in Deegan&#8217;s hands.<\/p>\n<p>When she faced Deegan, she gradually found the feeling she had in the debate competition and hit the vital point.<\/p>\n<p>She held the evidence and the court had been specifically investigated.<\/p>\n<p>The judge announced, &#8220;According to the evidence proposed by the plaintiff, it is confirmed that the defendant is guilty!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When the judge announced that the defendant had to apologize to the plaintiff and bear the medical fees and mental damage fees, Deegan was stunned.<\/p>\n<p>Unexpectedly, the lawyer actually won.<\/p>\n<p>The lawyer who he had looked down on actually won against him, and she was even a female lawyer who had gone to court for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>Looking at Carley, who was happily thanked by the plaintiff&#8217;s family, Deegan suddenly remembered the first time he met Audrey.<\/p>\n<p>For some reason, he always felt that Carley was very similar to Audrey in the court.<\/p>\n<p>William angrily rebuked Deegan, &#8220;Deegan, what happened to you? Didn&#8217;t you promise me that you would win the lawsuit?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Deegan could say nothing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;What was going on? Why didn&#8217;t they say anything?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Ashly suddenly had a bad premonition.<\/p>\n<p>However, she was too excited to think about it carefully.<\/p>\n<p>She could not accept her loss.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, she was determined to find Deegan and ask.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing Deegan sitting down in his seat, Ashly glanced at Audrey who was sitting behind Deegan and gave her a meaningful smile. She couldn&#8217;t help but rush to Deegan.<\/p>\n<p>When he saw Ashly stop in front of him like a wooden stake, Deegan frowned.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What&#8217;s the matter?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ashly glanced at Audrey before asking Deegan, &#8220;Deegan, how was the result of your lawsuit? Did you win?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Deegan was agitated because he lost the lawsuit. Now, Ashly made him even more upset.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Isn&#8217;t it working time now? Why are you asking so many questions?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After being scolded by Deegan, Ashly was so embarrassed.<\/p>\n<p>However, it was related to the result of the bet, so she had to ask clearly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Deegan, you have always been my most respected lawyer. You have won your previous lawsuit every time, so you must have won this time, right?&#8221; Ashly continued, &#8220;Besides, the other party is just a small lawyer who went to court alone for the first time. You are so powerful, and it is even more impossible for you to be defeated by a small lawyer, right?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Deegan became angrier.<\/p>\n<p>Ashly&#8217;s words were like a thorn tearing apart his heart.<\/p>\n<p>He was indeed defeated by a little lawyer who went to court alone for the first time, and this was his second humiliation.<\/p>\n<p>And the first person who left him with shame was Audrey.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3568","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3568","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3568"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
