Chapter 89
Everyone present, with baited breath, was worried about Lan. As a first–class lawyer, he would suffer from absolute disgrace if he lost the court case to Nova, a novice who was still wet behind ears. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
At long last, Lan hit back at the third point with his rebuttal.
“Thirdly, what Miss Bush mentioned does not meet the terms of today’s appeal, according to…”
Nova raised the corner of her mouth slightly, his rebuttal was kind of far–fetched, alright, let’s just cut him some slack.
Nova was completely unaware of what kind of glamour she was delivering now and bent on the case with her undivided
attention.
Even though Henry has gazed at her all the time, but… Nova didn’t give him a glance all along.
“Plaintiff, please speak.”
There was still no document on the desk before Nova’s, same as Chester. However once Nova had the floor the words came in one go, which made her arguments more convincing.
This time, Lan was troubled by a hard nut to crack.
Even though he was always praised as a born lawyer and all the laws were kept in his mind, he still need the assistance of a few written materials in front him. However… still he couldn’t find a hole in Nova’s arguments.
And a few rounds down, Lan’s defense became more and more far off the mark, and his performance showed a distinct
disadvantage.
Nova did not stop to give him a respite, but said impassively, “As regards the defendant’s project, my client the Don family group has the right to request to take over the project hereafter. At the same time, the profit involved in this project needs to. be returned to my client and an additional 10 billion damages should be paid by the plaintiff.”
“Oh, God!” Zona’s jaw dropped in shock!
Who would believe that the Don family group could not only turn the tables and win the lawsuit, but even force the King family group to pay compensation?!!
Chester smiled more broadly and then he looked at Henry with an aggressive expression.
Henry’s mouth tightened into a line, and the dark mist in his eyes seemed to be congealed into beads of water.
Lan suddenly wore a heavy look. It is a real gyp!
“Opposition!” Said Lan.
“Defense attorney, please speak.”
Clenching his fists, Lan had a feeling that lawsuit was doomed to lose.
But he wouldn’t cry uncle easily and disgracefully. Then he spoke again, “In view of the statement of the plaintiff, my client is willing to give the project to the plaintiff, but further compensation is unacceptable.”
Immediately there followed a string of evidence.
Zona couldn’t help inhaling deeply. “That’s amazing! I don’t expect that Nova is such an excellent lawyer!!”
Stella curled her lips slightly, wordless for Zona’s insensitivity. Zona should have been the last one who couldn’t see through Nova’s camouflage if she was not such a dull girl.-
Her Stella was very thick with Nova, but as everybody all known, she was only close to Polly and she would be present at every case of Polly’s. Therefore, it was quite clear that Nova and Polly were one and the same person.
But Zona hasn’t figured the secret out yet.
Others present here today, however, thought Nova went a bit too far ahead for asking for such a chunk of damages since they believed that the victory of the Don family group had proven nothing but she had a smart mouth and fortune was on her side.
Tens of billions of additional compensations! Is she serious?!
Chester smiled faintly. He appreciated Nova, that sort of people who mean business, and the amount of compensation really delighted him.
Given the fame and competence of Lan, no one rated Nova at all but she surprised them all…
All the points of argument listed by Lan were divided and conquered by her.
