Chapter 591: Chapter 645

Chapter 645 “What’s wrong?” Jaime, who had just come out of the bathroom, looked confused Mom, what happened to your face?*

“Mariela slapped me!”

Eason said with a dark face, “Jay, get your mom out of here. It’s embarrassing to make a scene here.”

Jaime furrowed his brows and asked, “Dad, what happened?”

“Your mom started the trouble. No wonder Ms. Logan fought back,” Eason said with a serious face. Just now your mom rushed over to hit Ms. Logan, but she failed to hit her and got hit back instead. Alright, go back quickly.”

“Mom, I know you were dissatisfied with the court’s verdict, but you couldn’t hit others either.” Jaime’s eyes carried a hint of reproach. “Marie is Dad’s attorney, and she was just doing her job. You can’t take your anger out on her.”

“Fine! You’re taking her side now, huh?” Perla’s eyes were red with anger. I’m your mother! You’re choosing that woman over me? Do I even matter to you anymore?”

Jaime was angry.

“You don’t matter to me? Ha–ha, I used to listen to you too much. That’s why I got entangled with Juliette and hurt Marie.”

“Are you blaming me for this?” Perla angrily exclaimed.

Jaime sneered, “How could I dare to blame you.”

“Alright, stop arguing. The taxi has arrived. Let’s go back together,” Eason said as he walked towards the roadside.

Marie went back to the law firm.

Front desk staff Anabel greeted with a smile, “Ms. Logan, you’ve returned. Ms. Moore is waiting for you in the office.”

Marie’s footsteps paused.“Did Ms. Moore come?”

Anabel nodded. “Yes, she’s been here for almost an hour. I told her that you were in court. She said she would be here waiting for you.”

Marie nodded and walked inside.

Jaida sat bored on the sofa, flipping through a legal journal. When Mariela returned, she put down the magazine and greeted, “You finally came back.”

Marie put down her bag and walked over to sit on the sofa. “Ms. Moore, do you have something to tell me?
