Chapter 164 - 167: Learning the Identity of the Important Person
“Mother, what should we do now?” Milly Gray supported Madam Gray, looking aggrieved at Rowena Gray.
Since childhood, she had been the princess of the Gray family.
Because her father died early, her mother and grandmother doted on her, giving her the best of everything.
Even in the Gray family, Lily Gray didn’t have a higher position than her own.
This was her first time being in such a miserable state.
“Don’t worry, no matter how ruthless that man is, he shouldn’t dare to do anything once he’s in court.” Rowena Gray was also very worried about that man’s identity, just like Milly.
She hoped that he only took action to teach them a lesson because Madam Gray had scolded him.
Rowena thought to herself how Madam Gray’s actions were too offensive, scolding Lily Gray was one thing, but how could she not see the obvious signs of power and influence in that man and scold him as well?
“Milly, don’t be afraid, grandmother is here. I don’t believe that they would still dare to act so lawlessly in front of the judge!” Madam Gray consoled her granddaughter, trembling with fear but not forgetting to comfort her.
Her words were meant to comfort Milly, as well as to muster her own courage.
“Mother, let’s go in, the trial is about to start.” Rowena Gray didn’t want to comment too much on Madam Gray’s perspective and could only hold her anger in and support Madam Gray in.
As for the Gray family relatives who had run away, she had never counted on them to be of any use, so it was better for them to be gone, lest they drag them down.
The three Grays found their fleeing lawyer and assistant outside the lounge.
When the Gray family’s lawyer saw the three of them, he immediately pulled them into the lounge.
“Miss Gray, I have to tell you… you’ve caused big trouble this time. 1 can’t take this case, you’ll have to find someone else!”
Mr. Holbrook was an expensive lawyer Rowena Gray hired from outside.
Although he was not as famous as Mr. Fenton, he was still a golden nameplate in A City.
However, when he saw Mr. Fenton just now outside the door, he regretted taking Rowena Gray’s case.
When he saw Aidan Lucas appear behind him, he was even more regretful.
“Mr. Holbrook, how can you do this! I’ve given you hundreds of thousands, and now you say no and the trial is about to start, isn’t this scamming me!?”
“I’m not scamming you, really… I really can’t take it. You… your niece’s support is too powerful. If I had known who was behind her, I wouldn’t have taken your money for anything!”
Mr. Holbrook was once very unfortunate, he almost offended Mr. Cooper while representing a wealthy client in a lawsuit.
Luckily, Mr. Cooper was not interested in him, a minor character, and let him escape.
“What kind of big shot is so powerful that even Mr. Holbrook doesn’t dare to fight the lawsuit? If you want to increase the price, just say it directly, don’t scare people casually!”
Mr. Holbrook rolled his eyes. If it weren’t for the Gray family’s money, he wouldn’t want to take on a case like this one that hurt his own niece.
“What good does it do me to scare you? If there was really money to be earned, wouldn’t I earn it? Fine, fine… I’ll just be the good guy to the end and tell you… the big shot protecting your niece is none other than Mr. Cooper, the Mr. Cooper of the Royal Palace Group. If you don’t know who Mr. Cooper is, you must have heard of Mr. Lucas, right? That’s him, Mr. Lucas, the one in charge of the Lucas family, Aidan Lucas.”
Mr. Cooper was the name Aidan Lucas was known by when he first took over the Royal Palace Group.
Later, when he took control of the Lucas family, the title of Mr. Lucas originally arose within the Lucas family, but somehow, it gradually spread outward.
In the past couple of years, this title had become even more memorable. “Lu… Mr. Lucas…. How could it be him!”
