Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress

Chapter 1597

Chapter 1597: A fight for justice

"You are... fired," Cassandra stressed each syllable through the telephone. "I don't want to see you here again."

"Miss Cassa-"

Without waiting for her lawyer's response, she slammed the phone down. Her face was still streaked with lingering tears, her eyes swollen from crying. Still, she wanted to keep a brave front, even as her world continued to crumble with every passing second.

"Ki," she whispered. "Let's do it your way."

Those were the words that stuck with her - we.

This fight wasn't just Cassandra's. It was Kiara's, too.

"And... we'll keep fighting from here on until the final verdict." She nodded to herself, swallowing all other emotions, holding on to just one reason: Kiara.

"She has a lot of flowers in her office," Kiara commented quietly, watching Hugo as he stood near the display.

Hugo studied the flowers, even taking the liberty of checking the cards attached to them.
