Requiem of a Broken Heart

Chapter 578:

Andres took Rachel’s wrist and replied, “Sure, you have Eric, your star lawyer, but he isn’t the only talented one around. This city is full of competent attorneys. Mr. White, for all your influence, you can’t control everyone. It’s useless to intimidate Rachel with such tactics.”

Brian’s expression turned slightly dejected. “I was hoping you had a unique strategy I hadn’t considered. Yet…” With a hint of irony in his tone, he added, “It’s commendable that you’re trying to assist her. However, I suggest you fully grasp the situation before making grand assertions. Jeffrey attacked me, and the proof is irrefutable. I possess both eyewitness accounts and physical evidence. Beyond my own injuries, there are statements from company staff and video evidence from the incident—no attorney could dispute these facts.”

Andres was taken aback, not having foreseen the solid evidence Brian possessed. It became clear why Rachel had felt compelled to comply with him. Noticing Andres’s subdued reaction, Brian sneered, “Have you finished your performance, Andres?”

“Please consider being more generous. Showing a little hope might benefit you and others,” Andres said.

Yet, Brian showed no appreciation for the advice. “I don’t need an escape route.” He then turned to Rachel. “Let me make this clear once more, Rachel, you are free to leave if you find this situation unjust.”

“I won’t be leaving,” Rachel responded, filling two additional glasses with water.
