My Rich Hot and Infertile or Maybe Not Husband

Chapter 1224

Hector blinked, “Of course not. If he hires me to go against you, his ex–wife, that would be pretty heartless.”

Celeste frowned, “Didn’t you two chat on the day the court adjoumed?”

Hector replied. “We’re old schoolmates. We always catch up. We were pretty tight back in school.”

Celeste asked, “Why was he there at the trial then?”

Hector looked puzzled, “Wasn’t he there to see you?”

Celeste was shocked

What a joke!

Before the lawsuit started, Liam had no idea Celeste was the plaintiff

At first, she thought he was there for Sydney, but after finding out Sydney was sending some cryptic messages only she could understand, she realized Liam and Sydney weren’t what she thought they were

And the one who was suing her was not Sydney herself. Even if Liam was still in touch with Sydney, he wouldn’t be bored enough to meddle in Sydney’s fans lawsuit with her, night?

Now Hector claims he’s not hired by Liam Did Sydney hire him herself?

Did Sydney intentionally hire a lawyer familiar with Liam, making Celeste think he’s hired by Llam, just to make their relationship worse?

Sydney was swamped with this lawsuit, and even her public appearances became low–key Did she even have the time to do this?

Celeste asked again, “Did Sydney hire you for her lawsuit?”

Hector shook his head, “She’s not my client, her case was taken up by a lawyer from a friend’s firm.”

Celeste pressed on, “You’re so talented, you’ve even collaborated before. Why didn’t she hire you?”

Hector replied casually. “We never worked together, I don’t even know her.”

Celeste was taken aback, “So, the lawsuit you helped her assistant with, it wasn’t her who hired you?”

Hector replied, “That case was taken by my assistant. I didn’t even know who the client was. I took it mainly because the offer was good. Who would say no to that?”

So it wasn’t Sydney who hired Hector?

Then who?

She furrowed her brows, recalling the ins and outs of that issue, the clues gradually connecting together, slowly forming a chain.

She suddenly had a strange feeling, as if someone deliberately made her believe that Liam was helping Sydney sue her

And indeed, because of that, she was very angry and disappointed with Liam.

Who could have this motive?

Skyler Reed?

But she had already divorced Liam by then. There was no need for her to do so.

“Anything else, Ms Campbell?”

Hector asked indifferently. “If it’s over ten minutes, I’ll have to charge for half an hour

Celeste snapped back to reality, “is it overtime already?”

Hector said, “Two more minutes.”

Celeste asked, “Why would you charge if it’s not over ten minutes?”

Hector said, “It’s free within ten minutes. It’s our practice rule and also our compassion.”

Celeste said, “Well, show some compassion then. Otherwise, I feel like I’m being ripped off”

Hector fell silent for a moment as he looked at Celeste closely

When Liam got marned, he was busy writing his doctoral thesis, so he didn’t attend the wedding.

He only saw Celeste in the wedding photos shared by his schoolmates in the group chat NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

He just thought she was beautiful.

He dismissed it, thinking Liam’s taste was common, choosing a trophy wife with nothing but beauty.
