After Death, Love Unveiled

Edith raised her head, looked at Asher who seemed calm and rational, and said, "Don't you feel sad about Andrei's death? You and he have lived together for a long time."

Asher responded, "Death comes to everyone. Take it easy." One day, death would find him too.

Instantly, Edith's face darkened. "Do you know what you are talking about?"

Asher didn't want to argue with his sad mother, so he said, "I know that you are sorrowful because Andrei is dead. Don't worry. I am here and will take good care of you and Violet."

Hearing Asher, Edith took a deep breath before she asked, "How I told you to build a good relationship with Evelyn, but you ignored my advice. Now that Andrei is gone, what can you do?" It sounded like she couldn't live without a man. Asher looked at his mother and didn't talk back because he thought his relationship with Evelyn was good.

'I earn Evelyn's admiration with my expertise though there is no love. I am qualified to negotiate with Evelyn at the table while the other men are just her dispensable pets. Even so, Mom still wants me to sell myself to Evelyn. Interesting...' He thought. Asher didn't share his true thoughts with his mother and just got her sent home.

After the problems of the Linde Group were solved, Asher finally had time to go to the law firm. There, he failed to find Elara who was away for her new case.

The young woman sitting opposite Elara wore no makeup and kept her head down as she said, "Miss Kensington, I know there is no hope for me to win the case, but I still want to sue him. I want to give it a try..."

Looking at Emily Cooper, Elara said, "Are you sure?"

Emily nodded. "Yes!"

It was late when the talk ended.

Elara walked out of the cafe, checked her watch, and found that the talk had cost her a lot of time.

Lysander's car stopped by the road. Elara opened the door, got in the car, and said with her gaze at Lysander who had been away for days, "I'm sorry for being late. Have you been waiting long?"

What a surprise that he is still here! I thought he would have left Elara thought.

Lysander turned to Elara and said, "No."

Elara suggested, "Let's go straight to my father's place." Yesterday, she had made an appointment with Lysander about the dinner at her father's place today.

Lysander asked, "What case are you working on?"

"A rape," Elara replied. "A nineteen-year-old girl was raped. She filed a police report, but she was slandered as a liar for the reason that the accused surrounded by many pretty women must have no interest in her. She was said to pester the accused will get pretty and cause trouble after she failed to get what she wanted. However, she indeed got hurt. Not only the
