Chapter 84 A Contrast

“Hehe.”

Lamont chuckled and placed a hand on Macey’s shoulder. “My good mother, how could

He was smiling, but he was mean.

Macey thought bitterly in her heart, but she still maintained a kind smile on her face.

Lamont found a person’s information on the laptop. “He will assist you in this lawsuit. I guarantee that you will win.”

How could there be such a good thing?

Macey looked at the laptop screen in doubt. However, after browsing through the person’s CV, she finally understood why Lamont was so confident.

“Don’t forget what you promised me.”

Lamont closed the laptop with a sound and walked to Macey’s ear. After gently saying

account.

Lamont opened a folder on the table and placed it in front of Miriam.
