Chapter 108
Universe Group and Bryant Group.”
Laura suddenly became hesitant at the mention of Marina.
“But…”
Marco couldn’t take any more. He hung up the phone. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Jimmie stood beside Marco, gloating. “Was that your mom? What did she say?”
Marco answered with a straight face. “Since you are in the mood to make fun of me, I take it that means you’re feeling confident about the lawsuit?”
Jimmie sighed.
“Universe Group is acting tough. Plus, with the release of the evidence of your sister’s theft and your mother’s slander of
Loraine, it’s not possible for us to win this case.”
“If it was easy, would I have asked for your help?” Marco rubbed his temples.
“It won’t be easy to settle this matter peacefully,” said Jimmie, not wanting to keep Marco in suspense. “It will all depend on Loraine’s attitude. You should prepare yourself mentally. You might be forced to sacrifice a significant amount of money as compensation.”
Marco wasn’t concerned.
“Money is not a problem.”
He was implying that he was prepared to give Loraine as much money as she wanted.
Jimmie was stunned.
“Are you really going to let your ex-wife have whatever she wants?”
“It has nothing to do with Loraine,” Marco replied stubbornly. “You know my rule: whoever made the mistake deserves to be punished.”
“Everyone knows it. But it’s a different matter altogether when your family made the mistake.” A sympathetic expression appeared on Jimmie’s face.
Marco glowered.
He thought about how he had hurt Loraine, and his heart sunk. Was it his turn to get punished?
Just then, Jimmie received a message from Universe Group. He held the phone up for Marco to see. “It looks Like Universe Group has agreed to withdraw the Lawsuit. However, Loraine has made some new requests.”
First, financial compensation for emotional harm.
Second, a public apology from Laura.
