Chapter 75

Stefan frowned slightly after a hint of surprise flashed across his cold face.

What have Rence done? Why was Zack Rosenwell willing to pour drinks for her?

Three years ago, when II Group acquired the Hunts & Co. Law Firm, Zack Rosenwell left a deep

impression on Stefan due to his arrogance and lack of respect.

However, because Zack’s professional capabilities were so outstanding – he would easily help H Group

solve all kinds of legal issues – Stefan simply let him be.

All these years, Stefan had always left the Hunts & Co. Law Firm alone. He did not care how much

money they made as long as they could be useful in crucial moments.

But those lawyers simply turned the law firm into a “retirement home”. Not only did the law firm not

make money, it was losing money every year!

Renee actually gave up $40 million dollars and a luxury house in exchange for this law firm. In Stefan’s

opinion, it was so not worth it.

He was sure that there was no way Renee could deal with the difficult people in the law firm,

considering her capabilities. When that happened, Renee would naturally admit defeat and come to

him to re-discuss the distribution of assets.

But now, it seemed like Renee had pretty much done it… in only three days?

Renee and the lawyers did not notice Stefan’s arrival. Stefan did not go over to greet them either.

Instead, he headed straight for the VIP area on the second floor.

Xavier had been waiting for him. He was full of complaints. “Bro, you’re finally here. When we asked

you to come, you said you’re busy, but when it concerns your little darling wife, you came immediately!”

“It has nothing to do with her.”

Stefan replied coldly as he took a seat.

The seat he chose was right across from the booth where Renee and the lawyers were in, enabling him

to see their every move.

From the moment he sat down, Stefan’s gaze had never left Renee, as if his eyes had been locked in

place.

Downstairs, Renee was surrounded on all sides. She was smiling brilliantly, like a blooming flower,

bright and charming.

Her white skirt was pure, while her red lips were seductive. The two contrasting elements blended into

her, making her seem… so alluring!

Was that how she took care of those eccentric lawyers?

When he thought of that, Stefan’s gaze tightened. He took a sip of wine with an expression of

displeasure. A strange feeling rose in his heart.

“Bro, are you even listening to me?”

Xavier’s waved his hand in front of Stefan’s face. He then continued bravely, “From the

moment you sat down, all you’ve been doing was stare at her. We should just call you Starefan! Stop

ignoring your friends!”

Only then did Stefan realize that he seemed to have been paying too much attention to that

woman.

He withdrew his gaze and turned to Xavier, asking him in a cold voice, “What were you saying again?”

Xavier quickly said, “Bro, I remember you have a law firm, and there’s a lawyer named Zack Rosenwell

working in your law firm, right? Dude, I’m in trouble. Can you ask that guy to represent me in a case? I

can’t lose this case or I’m done for!”

“I can get you a lawyer, but Zack Rosenwell…”

Stefan had a complicated expression as he said, “I’m afraid he won’t take orders from me.”

“No way! You’re his boss!”

Xavier seemed really worried. He said helplessly, “Dude, I’ll tell you honestly. It’s the new club I

opened. A woman died from alcohol overdose from drinking too much. Now, her family’s taking us to

court. The situation is very unfavorable for us!”

“I have a good relationship with the judge, so he secretly hinted to me that in this type of cases, our

side would usually lose. There was only one example of the defendant winning – it was a case Zack

Rosenwell took on years ago…”

Xavier was about to lose it.

He came from a family of politicians. His family had always been strict. His father nagged him every

day for not working a proper job.

If his father found out that he actually had the audacity to open an entertainment club and the club had

even caused death, his father would definitely break his legs and confine him forever!

Christopher chimed in, “Try and ask the lawyer to help him, Fan. After all, if the lawyer is

someone we know personally, there will be fewer problems.”

Stefan pursed his thin lips and said no more.

Downstairs, Renee’s group was becoming more and more lively. They were now playing a drinking

game.

Stefan’s face hardened. He could not sit still anymore.

He picked up a glass of wine and told the dispirited Xavier, “Let’s go.“
