Chapter 5 Forced to A Deal

Evelyn’s ears turned red, and her voice was barely audible. “Yes.”

“Your husband cheated on you, and you want revenge on him, right?”

She hesitated, unsure, before answering, “Yes.”

“And he never slept with you?”

“…Yes.”

The man abruptly rose to his feet, catching her off guard.

In a few steps he stood before her, gently lifting her chin with his finger.

“You must know that HM Law Office rarely takes on marriage lawsuits…” His voice was steady and imposing.

Evelyn looked at him curiously, unsure of what he meant.

“Such cases are beneath the attention of renowned lawyers, yet other lawyers lack the capability to handle them. And cases like yours hold little profit and value, making them costly endeavors. Do you even have enough money to afford it?” He delivered his words with precision and authority.

She frowned slightly. Of course she didn’t have that much money.

She also couldn’t bring herself to borrow money from Grace.

She was aware that a prolonged lawsuit would mean even more expenses.

Her mind was in chaos. She felt trapped, with no choice but to accept her fate helplessly.

The more she dwelled on it, the more her anxiety grew, and despair overwhelmed her. Her eyes started welling up with tears.
