Chapter 26 It’s George, not Sam

A man walked into the room, accompanied by an assistant carrying a black briefcase.

The security guard escorted them.

Clearly, this was the lawyer that Isabelle had mentioned.

“Who is this?” Timothy, who had attained his current position through his extraordinary abilities, was adept at discerning people. He instantly recognised that the individual before him was no ordinary

man.

His habitual bureaucratic demeanour immediately took over. Timothy extended both hands and briskly walked toward Jim.

“Convictus Legal, Jim Carter.” Jim shook hands with Timothy politely. “I am…” He glanced around the room. As soon as his eyes met Isabelle’s, he confirmed her identity.”… the appointed lawyer for this young woman.”

“Convictus Legal? Jim Carter?” Timothy’s eyes widened in surprise.

It was impossible for him to not know such a prominent figure.

Once, someone deliberately set Timothy up, causing him to be caught in a scandal. He tried to use his connections and money to get Jim to represent him in court.

After much effort, he finally obtained Jim’s contact information, but was rejected without even a meeting. Jim claimed that his case was too trivial.

And right now, Isabelle’s lawyer, an influential lawyer who wasn’t susceptible to financial pressure, was in front of him.

Timothy was confused. Was this a big deal?

Even if the Harris family had requested it, Jim shouldn’t have shown up in person, right?

Before he could grasp the whole situation, Jim had walked up to Isabelle. He asked, “How should I address you?”

“Isabelle Jenkins.”

Jim nodded and said, “Miss Jenkins, I hope I make it on time.”

Isabelle replied, “You’re slightly late, but it doesn’t matter.”

Seeing his familiar face, Isabelle instinctively replied, completely forgetting that she was Isabelle instead of Blood Shadow.
