Chapter 261 Boring Birthday

So, just like that, Hayden totally blew the case.

Not only did he lose big time, but his reputation took a nosedive too.

The internet was buzzing with hate, and reporters were swarming the Brown Villa. Even Evelyn and Sophia couldn't catch a break when they got home.

If it weren't for the security guards stepping in, they might've been pelted with eggs.

To make matters worse, Brown Corporation's stock tanked, and public opinion was turning against them. Employees started quitting left and right, and several factories had to shut down.

In short, Hayden got completely owned by Isabella this time.

Meanwhile, Isabella just made a brief appearance and totally crushed it. She knew that good always wins over evil, and she also knew Michael played a huge part in their victory.

If it weren't for him gaining the Brown family's trust and getting Hayden to spill the beans, the court wouldn't have ruled in their favor so quickly. Thinking about this, Isabella turned to Emily, who was resting against the car seat, and said, "Emily, today, we're heading to the Smith Mansion."

Emily thought she misheard. "Mom, aren't we just inviting Michael for a meal? Why are we going to the Smith Mansion together?"

Michael's absence from court wasn't about protecting Sophia's dignity.

It was Scarlett's birthday, and Michael and Veda were at home helping with the celebration, so they couldn't make it to court.
