Chapter 562
[We’ll see.]
We’ll see…
Olivia pursed her lips. Could Mr. M be mad?
As she thought about it more, she figured that Mr. M was probably not that petty of a person, right?
However, what was most important at this moment was contacting the lawyer, so she immediately called the number on the name card.
“Hello. May I speak to Mr. Pitt, please? I’m Phoebe James from The One.”
“Ms. James, Mr. M has already briefed me. Are you at the atelier now?”
“I’ll leave for there right away. I will arrive in about half an hour.”
“Okay, we’ll meet in half an hour, then.”
The atelier, half an hour later.
Just as Olivia arrived, a man walked in, looked at her, and asked, “Ms. James, right?”
“Yes.” Olivia responded quickly and brought him into the meeting room. “Mr. Pitt, all the relevant information is here. Is there anything else you’d like from me?”
Pitt was slightly stunned to see Olivia jumping in so quickly. Then, he went over to look at the information given.
After flipping through it, he replied, “These should suffice. Please also give me a copy of the other witness’ details.”
Upon thinking of Mr. Smith, Olivia pursed her lips in embarrassment. “I’ve contacted him, but he rejected me. Well…”
“You don’t have to worry about all that. Just give me the details, and I’ll handle the rest.”
When Pitt was done, he took out a checklist and said, “I also need these as soon as possible.”
Olivia glanced at Pitt, nodded, and said, “okay.”
After gathering all the information Pitt needed, Olivia brought him a glass of water as she asked,” Is there anything else I can do?”
Pitt saw that Olivia’s face was ashen and went up to comfort her. “Don’t be so nervous, Ms. James. Trust me, okay?”
Olivia gulped and nodded. “Okay.”
After the court case commenced, both parties completed their openings and the opposing lawyer started looking for trouble.
However, Pitt was very calm. After questioning the initial witness, he looked at the judge and said, “Your honor, I now ask for my witness to take the stand.”
“Proceed.”
The door opened, and a man walked in.
Olivia looked and was flabbergasted.
Why had he come?
She turned to look at Pitt, who returned a smile, signaling for her to not worry.
However… Would this man really be willing to be her witness?
