Chapter 257 How Would You Feel If That Happened To You?

Xavier sat at the bar counter under the dim lights, helping himself to a glass of dark red liquid. His injured arm was wrapped in bandages.

His thick eyelashes obscured the violence in his eyes.

"Thank you for your help, Mr. Tanner. You can contact me if you need anything."

The woman sitting in front of him handed a name card to Xavier.

Xavier took the card. Eminent Advocates & Solicitors.

Shandra Cullen. Senior Lawyer.

Memories of the past came back.

Back then, Xavier went to the same university as Walter and Shandra.

Walter and Shandra were ace students of the law college, and they were also known to be a couple.

Their relationship lasted through all four years in college.

For some reason, they broke up after graduation. Shandra left the country, and no one knew what happened to her. Walter drowned himself in alcohol for a period and eventually resumed his normal life.

"What a coincidence, Ms. Cullen. I happen to be in the middle of a difficult case. I've devoted my life to my wife, but my wife wants to leave me for another man. I'm not willing to agree to the divorce. I'd like to hire you to be my lawyer for this case. You can name your price," Xavier said.

You're frustrated that you can't taste it, even though you've fantasized countless times how it would taste like. One day, you find someone else eating the cake that you have been obsessed with.

How would you feel if that happened?"
