Chapter 450 Chapter 450 Winnie smiled and took a couple of steps toward him.
"I went to get you sfruits." She placed the bag of fruits in front of him and smiled warmly at him.She was as gentle as the first tthey had met.
Sam's anger dissipated immediately.
"You can't keep going out like that.It's going to cause us more trouble if the reporters see you!" Sam was also worried about tipping the police off to him having woken up.
"I took precautions.I wore a hat and a mask." Winnie peeled an apple for him and offered him a piece. S~Earch the FindNøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
"I'm just worried about the lawyer" Sam immediately frowned.
"I'm just worried about the enemies you've made doing business all these years. What if someone offers more money and the lawyer betrays you..." This was a possibility.It triggered Sam's paranoia.He sat up.
Winnie gently prompted, "I think it'll be better if you hire a few more lawyers.Just to be safe” She put down the knife and found Sam staring hard at her. She shook his head and smiled helplessly.
"The both of us are in the sboat.l, more than anyone else, hope you'll turn this around.If you felt I spoke out of place earlier, you can ignore what I said" She stood up and started tidying up.She took the kettle and left the room.
Once the door closed, she let out a sigh of relief.She slipped out her phone and sent a quick text to Jean.
'I've done as you instructed: At that exact moment, Jean was in a meeting with Robert Martin, the lawyer.She handed him her business card.
"I know that previously, you were sent by Royden Group to help me. This time, I'd like to hire you to helpwith something else." "This is..." Robert looked perplexed.
"Ms.Eyer, does Mr.Royden know about this?" "Of course, he knows.I wouldn't have dared to ask for your help otherwise." Jean knew he would ask that.She had been prepared for it. There was no sign of nervousness whatsoever.Robert took the card from her.
"Okay then. What is it you need my assistance with?" Half an hour later.

"Ms.Eyer, I don't think it's possible. Gabriel Ross is one of the best defense lawyers in the country.I have no confidence in beating him" Jean nodded.
"I know how you feel." Robert sighed heavily.
"Let's go then." He did not have the courage to go up against Pinnacle Group and Gabriel Ross. He was digging his own grave by staying here.He harbored so much regret inside, but this was not the tto be greedy.
Jean hummed before turning back to look at him with a smile.
"But what if you win? You'd be the lawyer that beat the once undefeatable Gabriel Ross.This is a chance to make a nfor yourself! Aren't you even a little bit tempted?" Robert was convinced.
"Are you looking for Mr.Ross?" His secretary greeted them with disdain.She opened his appointment schedule and said, "I'm sorry, but Mr.Ross is fully booked for the next couple of days." It was obvious she didn't think they were worth their time.
Jean had seen this coming.She handed the secretary her business card.
"Please let Mr.Ross know I'm looking for him." The secretary took her card and gave her a faint smile.
"Sure." Jean turned and left.
Robert followed closely behind.
They had just left the building when they saw a car coming their way.
"Hide!" Jean yelled.
Before Robert could even register what was happening, Jean had shoved him behind a pillar.
Out of the car ctwo people.
One was Edbert Royden, and the other was the aforementioned Norton Law Firm's best lawyer, Gabriel Ross. The two seemed to be chatting happily.
"I'll leave this case in your capable hands, Mr.Ross.I hope you'll live up to my expectations" Edbert's eyes glistened.
"I'll reward you greatly once this matter is settled" Gabriel Ross looked no older than forty.
He chuckled warmly, "Don't worry, Mr.Royden.It'll be as you wish." Edbert held out a hand, and his secretary immediately handed him an envelope.He quickly stuffed the envelope into Gabriel's suit pocket.
"I don't want Sam Reece to have a chance at turning this around.I'm doing this for my nephew: Gabriel adjusted his glasses.
"Understood. I'll take care of it." The two exchanged smore words before heading into the building.
Robert was too bewildered to speak.
"What is going on? Isn't Mr.Ross defending Sam Reece?" "Yes." Jean took out her phone and took a photo of their retreating backs.She immediately shared the photo with Robert.
"Take this and meet with Sam.He'll agree to you defending him. He'll give you his family fortune." Robert gulped.
"Then what if..." "Yes, you'll lose. You'll lose at the hands of Gabriel Ross" Jean was quick to answer.
"But it will also count as a victory against him. There is no way he can his goal without your achieve his help. Just for this, he will compensate you greatly" Robert was stunned. He paused before asking.
"Then why did you payto defend Sam?" "Because both Edbert Royden and I have the sgoal. We don't want Sam to evade the law." Jean turned to look at the building they had just left.
"Mr.Martin, you don't have much tleft. You had better leave for the hospital now" She put on her cap and disappeared into the sea of people.

Mr.Martin stood there for a while. He hesitated before taking out his om phone. He was about to dial Miles' number but decided not to. He did as Jean instructed and made his way to the hospital. On the way home, Jean was watching the news.
The reporter was highly prejudiced on Sam's side.
It was said that Sam Reece was incredibly sick and delirious.
He could not undergo any questioning from the police, and any charges would have to wait.
His lawyer, Gabriel Ross, did not comment.
Sitting on the bus and staring at her phone, Jean frowned.
The bus stopped.
She did not notice that someone had taken the seat next to hers.She only registered his familiar cufflinks and nostalgid woday's scent when he stretched out to open the window.She frowned and turned to look at him. Nôvel content. Their eyes met.
His were as unfathomable as the sea.
Before she could speak, Edgar shushed her. She saw people entering the bus.
They were all dressed in suits and were decipherable people from Gabriel Ross' office.
Jean frowned and stared at him in surprise.
Edgar smirked.
"Other people cto the sconclusion as you did. Watch" She was more confused than ever.
The bus started to move again.
The people who had just boarded took their seats in front of her.
