Chapter 562 [Weâll see.]
Weâll 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.
âHello. May I speak to Mr. Pitt, please? Iâm Phoebe James from The One.â
âMs. James, Mr. M has already briefed me. Are you at the atelier now?â
âIâll leave for there right away. I will arrive in about half an hour.â
âOkay, weâll meet in half an hour, then.â
The atelier, half an hour later.
Just as Olivia arrived, a man walked in, looked at her, and asked, âMs. James, right?â
âYes.â Olivia responded quickly and brought him into the meeting room. âMr. Pitt, all the relevant information is here. Is there anything else youâd like from me?â
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, âThese should suffice. Please also give me a copy of the other witnessâ details.â
Upon thinking of Mr. Smith, Olivia pursed her lips in embarrassment. âIâve contacted him, but he rejected me. Well...â
âYou donât have to worry about all that. Just give me the details, and Iâll handle the rest.â
When Pitt was done, he took out a checklist and said, âI also need these as soon as possible.â
Olivia glanced at Pitt, nodded, and said, âokay.â
After gathering all the information Pitt needed, Olivia brought him a glass of water as she asked,â Is there anything else I can do?â
âNo. My assistants will be arriving later, so if you trust me, you can leave the entire space to me.â
Olivia decided that if she was going to hire Pitt, she would want to express mutual trust.
Also, she was at a stage where she could not worry about whether she truly trusted Pitt or not.
She fished out her keys and placed them on the table. âOf course I trust you. Here are the keys to the atelier.â
âOkay. Please wait for my good news.â
After leaving the atelier, Olivia did not know where she could go, so she went to the hospital to pay Xavier a visit. Then, she visited Jennie so she could tell her the good news of how she finally found a lawyer.
One week passed in a blink, and it was finally the day of the hearing.
Olivia was really anxious. Even though she had looked up Pitt and his career history beforehand, she still felt really unsure since the other party had a world-class lawyer, so they would be sure to attack fiercely.
Jennie comforted Olivia. âDonât be so anxious, Pheebs. Trust our lawyer.â
Olivia grimaced as she nodded. âOkay. Iâll trust him.â
However, when she was sitting in court, her hands started trembling.
Pitt saw that Oliviaâs face was ashen and went up to comfort her. âDonât be so nervous, Ms. James. Trust me, okay?â
Olivia gulped and nodded. âOkay.â
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, âYour honor, I now ask for my witness to take the stand.â
âProceed.â
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?
