After Death, Love Unveiled

Chapter 178

After one glance at Eric. Elara asked, "Didn't you say that you are a friend of Evelyn?"

Eric smiled at Elara and answered, "We have met a couple of times before."

Evelyn was a celebrity at the Bar, so it was common to see her at the gatherings of the lawyers.

Elara said, "If so, I don't think that she remembers a friend like you."

"Does it matter?" Eric responded. "I invited you over because of Emily

"I know." Elara thought, 'I wouldn't be here if it weren't about Emily!

Eric looked at Elara and said, "Ms. Kensington, this is your first case, isn't it?"

"Yes."

Eric commented, "You women should focus on the divorce cases. Why did you ask for trouble? You must know that Emily lost in the first trial, so the odds are now against you." This speech was full of sexism.

Elara responded, "I will do my best since my client entrusted this case to me. As for the result, let's wait and see."

Eric laughed. "There are a lot of lawyers in your firm, aren't there? Why did she choose you instead of other lawyers?" What do you think?"

"Because you're young and gullible. Young women like you are easily manipulated. Emily spread her story on the Internet, and what does she get? Abuses! You did your homework, didn't you? So, why did you ask for trouble?" "Mr. Hacker did have sex with her, didn't he?" That was why the case had been made.

"Yes, but with her consent. My client is rich and has many women around him. Emily makes a scene because she fails to get what she wants. Even in this company, she looks plain. Why did she instead of the other women get raped? Aren't there many women who extort money via sex?"

Elara said, "Are you suggesting that ordinary-looking women won't become victims?"
