Chapter 997
Cosmo stormed out of the Yoder Group, still seething when he got home, and immediately summoned the butler
into the study.
“That medicine, it definitely reached Isaac’s hands, right?”
The butler quickly lowered his voice, “Sir, rest assured, I personally handed it to Isaac.”
A glint of coldness flashed in Cosmo’s eyes, “It’s good that he got it. Since Maxim refuses to come back, I’ll have to
use my own methods to bring him back!”
The butler hesitated for a moment, then cautiously said, “Sir, if the young master finds out about this in the future,
it might affect your relationship… I think perhaps we should
reconsider…”
Cosmo’s expression was icy, “He forced me into this. Since he refused to break up with Briana Cameron, I had to
do it for him!”
Seeing the expression on Cosmo’s face, the butler knew he couldn’t persuade him, so he could only sigh and turn to
leave.
The only hope was to keep this matter a secret from Maxim for a lifetime, otherwise, the day he learned the truth,
the Vanderberg family would also become restless.
Maxim’s secretary acted swiftly, and by the next day, she had found a well–known domestic lawyer whose
reputation was

no less than Timothy’s. It was said that she had previously won a lawsuit and even managed to send the opposing
lawyer to jail, which had made her famous overnight.
“You had the lawyer contact Thomas directly.”
The secretary nodded, “Alright, Mr. Yoder, I’ll get on it right away.””
On the other side, as Thomas was contemplating who to hire as a defense lawyer, he suddenly received a call from
Maxim’s secretary.
“Thomas, our president found a lawyer for Mr. Cameron. I’ll give you the lawyer’s contact information, you should
reach out to her.”
A flash of surprise crossed Thomas’s eyes, then he spoke, “Thank Mr. Yoder for me, by the way, what’s the lawyer’s
name?”
“Barbara Hamilton.”
“What did you say?! Say it again?!”
Thomas’s voice suddenly rose, filled with disbelief in his tone.
Barbara Hamilton?!
He would never forget this name in his lifetime, because he had a doomed relationship with her!
“Barbara, what’s wrong? Do you know Thomas? If you do, it’s just perfect…”
“No, no, no, I don’t know her. Here… I’ll give you my second brother’s contact information. You can have him
contact her.

I’m currently on a business trip abroad and won’t be able to return for a while.”
Hearing the urgency in his tone, as if he was eager to get rid of a hot potato, the secretary felt baffled.
How did he detect panic in Thomas’s voice?!
Did he hear it wrong?
However, before the secretary could speak, Barbara, who was standing nearby, suddenly signaled him to hand her
the phone.
The secretary handed it over with a bewildered look. Barbara whispered a thank you, then turned to the man
across from her and said, “Thomas, I already know that you’re the client. Even if you bring out your older brother
now, it won’t make a difference.”
The other end of the phone fell silent for two seconds, followed by a burst of busy tone.
Barbara sneered, it was just like before, always timid and incompetent.
She handed her phone to the secretary, smiling and saying, “Sorry for the trouble, I can go find Thomas myself.”
“But… didn’t Thomas just tell you to contact his second brother?”

Barbara’s smile remained on her face, her voice gentle, “I know Thomas, so there’s no need to bother his older
brother.”
After speaking, Barbara left, leaving the secretary disheveled in the wind.
One said he knew him, the other said he didn’t. Who should he believe?
Forget it, the work wasn’t finished, I don’t want to think about it anymore.
An hour later, Barbara blocked Thomas, who was ready to run away with his suitcase, at the door of the Cameron
family.
She raised an eyebrow, sneering, “What? You still remember how you wronged me and now you’re too ashamed to
face me, planning to run away?”

Thomas gritted his teeth, angrily saying, “When have I ever wronged you? Stop talking nonsense!”
Had he known that the lawyer Maxim was looking for was her, he would have refused outright from the beginning.
Now, every time he thought of Thomas, he couldn’t help but regret.
Barbara raised an eyebrow and chuckled, “If you say it didn’t happen, then it didn’t. After all, so many years have
passed and I’ve already let it go. But you, as a man, still want to run away, aren’t you ashamed?!”
“Who said I was going to run away?! I just had to go abroad for work recently, otherwise, I wouldn’t be afraid of you
at all!”
“Was there any job more important than your dad?”
At Barbara’s mocking expression, Thomas coldly retorted, “What’s it to you?!”
