Chapter 569

Sealing the manor would mean that everything that happened within its walls would be permanently sealed in his memory, never to be thought of again.

Jonathan walked toward the manor entrance.

From that moment on, he had decided not to return there! All his hopes and despair had been experienced within those walls, and that place would forever remain a forbidden territory for him.

Just like the woman he had once called “Rosie,” she too had eventually become a forbidden subject.

On the other hand, Rosalie was somewhat surprised by Fiona’s arrival at the law firm.

However, it turned out that Fiona had come to Lawrence for legal advice, hoping he could assist her with a defamation case. She wanted to file a lawsuit against some online users who had maliciously attacked her.

Lawrence, naturally, couldn’t turn down a potential client, especially when Fiona offered a substantial fee.

After discussing the case details, Fiona smiled and added, “Another reason I came here is because my cousin, Rosalie, works here. So, I specifically chose your firm to handle the case, which not only gives me peace of mind but also brings some business your way.”

When Lawrence heard that, he exchanged a few polite words with Fiona.

As Fiona prepared to leave, Lawrence suggested, “Rosalie, why don’t you join Fiona on her way out?”

Rosalie acknowledged and walked out of the law firm alongside Fiona.
