William gave the man a cold glare. “Isn’t that what you and your family are? A joke? Something to not be taken seriously in the slightest? I mean what did you expect me to think after all this nonsense you made me sit through?” He scoffed as he shifted his gaze back in time to see the head of police officers opening the door.Those in the negotiation room watched as Camilla led Andre and Tracy into the room. There was then a team of three prestigious-looking female lawyers with them.The three female lawyers looked familiar but Aura couldn’t tell who they were for the first few minutes.William smiled at the pleasant sight of his friends. “God damn it, you guys! You finally showed up! I thought I was gonna spend one more hour having to listen to this bunch of boring lawyers.The Brown family’s lawyer seated in the middle of her team glared at William. “Mr. William Chain, I will kindly remind you to be careful the way you speak to us. We can very well take back the contract we so
Camilla smiled at William lovingly. “Glad to see you’re still piece.” She giggled and was about to walk over to hug William when Andre beat her to it.“Oh, buddy! I missed you so much!” Andre hugged William’s head tightly, rocking him back and forth while William was still seated.William chuckled as he hugged Andre back. “I missed you too, buddy.” Once they were done, he hugged Tracy as well. “I hope Andre didn’t piss you off too much while he was worried about me?”Tracy chuckled before letting William go. “Oh, trust me, he was very annoying about it, but I dealt with it.”After this, William had to get up as Camilla walked toward him and hugged him. “I’m glad you’re here.” He whispered into her ear and kissed her neck.At this point, Ayra couldn’t take this anymore, especially having to witness William and Camilla be affectionate towards one another. She got up and pointed at them. “What the fuck is all this?!” She shifted her glaring eyes to the head of police officers. “You
Glorianti-Ocean Law Firm is actually an elite-tier law firm that was well known, respected, and feared by all who have dipped their toes in the ocean waters that is the study of law. Any lawyer who works under this fearsome law firm is known to possess the ability to make even the most evidential criminal a culprit in a court of law. This law firm is one of the most expensive law firms in the world, and most of its clients are in the top 1% population.“Oh, it seems you remember my lawyers then.” William had on a mischievous smirk as he stared at the Brown family. “Good.” He turned to the team of lawyers. “Apparently, The Brown family wants me to basically sign away my life in servitude to them in exchange for not having to spend years in prison.”The William’s lawyer to the left nodded her head. “We would love to hear the stipulations in this contract.”The Brown’s team of lawyers became visibly nervous as they glanced at each other before pulling out the contract. The woman in t
Mrs. Brown pointed a finger at Camilla. “You witch! You better watch the way you talk to my fear daughter!”Camilla raised an eyebrow at this woman. “What will you do if I don’t watch my mouth? You may not know this but my family is a major investor in The Brown Broadcasting Corporation. If you talk to me like that again, I have the means to have our investment pulled out from your media conglomerate.”As soon as Mr. Brown heard this, he yanked his wife back into a sitting position by that arm, ignoring as Mrs. Brown felt a pain pull from the sudden pull.The William’s lawyer in the center pulled out a flash drive. “You have claimed all these, but I can actually prove that your client, The Brown family, is lying. They have in fact framed my client of these crimes.” Ashe raised this flash drive before the head of police officers. “This is the proof.”The head of police officers nodded his head before taking the flash drive. He then walked over to a wall that was covered with a bla
“My dear daughter, why are you even asking such a dumb question?” Mr. Brown whispered back to Ayra. His face held a grave expression. “Someone was definitely sent by William much earlier to infiltrate our home and disguise themselves as an ordinary maid or housekeeper. Then they probably had a secret camera on at all times.”Mrs. Brown wasn’t dumb either. She had been involved in various scheming ever since she was little, and thus, she quickly grasped what her husband was saying. “The camera they used to record our conversation was probably a top-tier quality. This way, they’ve made it hard for us to deny any of the words found in this video if we should ever find ourselves in court.”Right now, The Brown family knew that they were in big trouble at this moment. The video on the huge screen clearly stated that it was taking an intermission break, which meant that there were still more videos to be shown.Ayra was scared, to the point that she was fidgeting. “Mom, Dad, what are we
The lawyer to the left glared slightly before averting his gaze. “Mr. Brown, calm down. We will have to see everything first before we know the best course of action to take.”Mr. Brown knew that the lawyer was speaking sensibly, so he could only suck in his frustration as he sat back in his seat. At this point, he was starting to regret that he didn’t stop his wife and daughter from going through with their horrible plan.At this moment, the video played automatically, resuming from where it had stopped. It’s like whoever put this video together knew that the intermission break would be a necessity in the first place.Everyone’s eyes were drawn to the large screen. In this video, they watched Ayra talking to Wilson and Donald about how they had spiked William’s drink and their spy had confirmed that their target had consumed the drink. Then the hidden camera recording everything showed the man who they were wearing the fake skin mask over his face, and thus, making him look like
Ayra was not the only one who had figured out what happened. Mr. Brown is an intelligent man and Mrs. Brown is a schemer. The lawyers they hired were also intellectual individuals who were trained to think ahead of their average counterparts if they hoped to win a case. Then there’s the lawyers from Glorianti-Ocean Law firm. They also realized what William had done. Camilla is a prodigy among her peers in one of the most competitive families in the world, so William's game was quite decipherable at this point. As for Andre and Tracy, it took a bit of conversing with Camilla and William before they grasped it.The game that William played with all three members of the Brown family required the meticulous alignment of certain aspects like; an unmatched mind, resources in terms of connection, status, wealth, and ability to make a cohesive team. With what William had achieved, he had shown everyone in this room that he was truly a capable man, despite being a university heartthrob in hi
Ayra was in deep trouble. This was something she had become very aware of the second the video content in that flash drive had revealed everything that she did. She was already trying to think of ways that her father could get her out of this trouble. But then she heard the head of police officers' words directed at her and her family and she couldn’t believe it. That was why she lurched from her seat to yell at the law enforcement officer.Camilla and Tracy couldn’t help but snicker as they watched Ayra. The Brown daughter currently looked like a once proud peacock that had now been turned frustrated as it had been stripped of all its proud feathers. There was no longer any beauty in her demeanor, just a young woman filled with so much ugliness.The head of police officers sneered at Ayra, before shifting his gaze to Mrs. Brown. “You three had the audacity to bribe a subordinate of mine into corruption. While Mr. William Chain was in his cell, that police officer would come over i
