It was winter in Y City in December.More than a month ago, Chloe started spreading rumors about
Katherine on the internet.
That happened on the third of December.
The weather was not even good, but Katherine had a good mood.
Chloe, on the other hand, was in a bad mood.
She thought that Katherine only wanted money in exchange for dropping the case against her.
When she received the lawyer's letter, she did not even care, and after that, she did not hear anything
from Katherine.
She even joked about this matter with her friends.
However, in the end, she was called by the court.
This time, she started feeling a little nervous.
However, she still didn't take this matter seriously.
She also asked Zack to help her fix this matter, but Zack not only did not help her but also asked her
not to provoke Katherine again.
Chloe did not believe that Katherine could do anything to her.
It was just that the matter was a little huge back then.
Now, the whole case would be broadcast on the internet.
When she thought that everyone on the internet knew her, she could not help but get a little mad.
Katherine had not seen Chloe for nearly half a month.
She thought that she had restrained herself, but she did not expect to receive her piercing glare as
soon as she passed by her.
Katherine raised her eyebrows and looked at Aidan beside her.
"Secretary Hall, I have nothing but money, and I know someone deserves to be detained, right?"
It was the first time that Aidan had heard someone talk so calmly not to cause chaos.
He immediately understood what Katherine meant.
"Sure, Ms.Wilson.I would make sure that Chloe would be detained."
Katherine smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work.”
After that, Katherine sat on the plaintiff's table, while Chloe sat on the defendant's table opposite her.
Katherine had spent so much money to have Aidan as her lawyer.
He was best at handling lawsuits related to libel cases or something related to a person's reputation.
It was expected that this lawsuit would be naturally successful.
The hearing passed.
When Chloe heard the judge's verdict, she was in a panic.
Things were now sinking on her head.
Katherine should not be taken lightly.
"Wait! I can pay for this! Let's resolve this by retributing the damages.I can pay any amount you ask
for!"
When Chloe's representative lawyer heard this, he also quickly said, "Your Honor, I think we can
negotiate with the plaintiff"
But Aidan was also quick to decline.
"Sorry, my client would not accept any reconciliation.’’
In the end, the judge decided to detain Chloe for five days and made her compensate for the mental
damage and the damage to Katherine's reputation.
Meanwhile, Katherine was so satisfied with the result.
She wanted to make Chloe repent for her wrongdoings ever since.
If Chloe were to force her plea, then she should not blame Katherine if she became impolite in terms of
dealing with this case.
Five days was neither long nor short.
But for Chloe, who had been pampered since she was a child, staying in a detention center for five
days would be like hell.
Yes, she would definitely remember this suffering for the rest of her life.
When they were wrapping up, Aidan talked to Katherine.
"Miss Wilson, I'm sorry.I tried my best, but we could only detain her for five days.’ Katherine genuinely
smiled at Aidan when she heard his apology.
"Mr.Hall, you're being too modest.I am satisfied with this result.Although we can have her sentenced
longer, I don't have much time to waste.Just forget it.It was enough.’’
Aidan heaved a long sigh of relief and muttered, "Thank you, Miss Wilson.’’
"Shall we have lunch together?" Katherine cordially asked.
"Of course, I won't refuse Miss Wilson's request” Aidan replied with a warm smile.
Before the two walked out of the court, Victoria angrily bolted over and blocked their paths.
"Katherine! Hurry up and tell the judge that we will settle this privately! Now!" she exclaimed.
Katherine raised her eyebrow and coldly glanced at Victoria.
"Mrs.Colburn, you must be getting old.Did you not hear what I said earlier?"
After Katherine asked that, she chuckled.
"If I refuse to accept your request, what can you do to me, anyway?"
Victoria stared at Katherine with wide eyes.
Katherine wasn't the person that used to heed to all of her requests anymore.
Yes, she looked the same, but it seemed that her demeanor had completely changed.
In the past, Katherine would bear all of Victoria's demands.
However, now, she did not only refuse to do so; she also stared at her fiercely with a hint of mockery.
It was not helping that she was also snickering at her! Victoria was so mad that her face formed several
wrinkles.
"What are you so proud of? With just one word from Zack, your lousy company will be closed in less
than a month!" she yelled incredulously.
Katherine nonchalantly looked at her and said, "Oh, okay.I will wait for that then."
Katherine had enough.
She didn't want to waste her time being entangled with the scandalous old lady, so she invited Aidan.
"Let's go, Mr.Hall.Let's have lunch."
Victoria was completely stunned.
When she saw Aidan, who was next to Katherine, she laughed.
"Do you think having a lawyer boyfriend is amazing? Just wait; I'll let Zack deal with you now!"
