He laughed, “It seems that you came prepared? So, What Mrs. King want to say?” As soon as he

finished speaking, his smile became wry as he saw Stella following Nova. Why are they together? Stella

let out a slight cough and she also walked in. She said with a little embarrassment, “Mr. Don, as Polly

was caught in some difficulties, I couldn‘t tell you everything. But, since we have decided to take the

case, we have to tip our hands to you.” Chester‘s pupil contracted. He cast another glance at Nova. His

eyes were overwhelmed with storms of shock After a pause, he said with seeming composure, “So, what

Miss Lake want to tell me is that the top–class lawyer I tried so hard to hire is my opponent‘s wife?” Nova

smiled, “Ex–wife.” Chester could no longer hide the shock and asked, “Ex–wife?” Nova stretched her

hand to Chester and said, “Mr. Don, I am Polly. Nice to meet you.” Chester had met Mrs. King many

times. But it was indeed his first time that he had met Polly. Chester shook her hand with an abnormal

smile showing his confusion. He asked, “Why did you divorce all of a sudden?“.

Stella smiled, “Mr. King is not satisfied with what he had. So, Polly decided to get away from such an

insatiable man. Mr. Don, we know the importance of this case to the Don‘s Family. We are not joking.

You don‘t have to trust Nova, Mr. King‘s ex–wife, but you have to trust Polly.” Chester slightly narrowed

his eyes. But soon, he laughed. “Henry has Lan for this case. I think no one can win the case against

him, except Polly.” Lan was an elite lawyer. He had never lost a single case. Many lawyers were afraid of

confronting him in court. More than that, he was Henry‘s childhood buddy. Some described Lan as

another Polly. If they could fight in one case, the court would definitely put on an excellent battle of

tongue. This was also why Chester was trying so hard to win Polly to his side. It was just... It‘s a bit of a

coincidence, but more a fun. Stella smiled and nodded, “That‘s right, Mr. Don. Few is better than Lan.

You can find anyone to lose this case. But our Polly is one of the few who can win. In this way, I think Mr.

Don could dispel the doubt that Polly might be Mr. King‘s spy.” They suddenly heard a knock on the room

door. “Sir, the food is ready, can it be served?”

The door was opened, and several waiters served together. They didn‘t make any unnecessary noise.

Only the sound of plates being put on the table could be heard. After all the dishes were served, the

waiter said politely, “All dishes have been served. If you have any problems, please be free to inform me

at anytime.” Chester nodded his head slightly. All the waiters went out and closed the door. Nova didn‘t

act for courtesy‘s sake. She directly took the cutlery and cast a glance at Chester, “If I had known that

Mr. Don are so hospitable and welcoming, I should have said that we meet in the morning.” She was

busy in the morning and only drank a little bottle of milk. She was really hungry. Chester was surprised.

When he met her before, she would be with Henry all the time. They looked like an affectionate couple.

But they divorced without any sign. Chester also picked up the cutlery and said smilingly, “Polly, don‘t

you want some drink?” “No, thanks. Alcohol is bad for health. I heard that Mr. Don also have some health

problem with your stomach. Let‘s just enjoy the dishes.” Chester curled his lips to produce a faint smile.

He said with implication, “I didn‘t expect that Polly have a concern on me.” Nova‘s hands holding the

cutlery had a short pause. But she then smiled casually and continued enjoying the food. She didn‘t

speak another word but focused on eating. She was neither eating slowly nor gobbling. Her elegance

could be felt. Chester was savouring every mouthful of delicacy. He was like a prince. But Stella was not

in the mood for eating. She occasionally cast a glance at Chester from the corner of her eyes. Worries

was shown in her eyes. Chester didn‘t look at Nova until she put down her cutlery. Chester said, “My first

contact with Polly brought me so many surprises.” Nova smiled, “Don‘t be surprised, Mr. Don. You will

see much more surprises.” Chester raised his eyebrows. The curiosity in his eyes grew. He said, “Then

I‘ll wait and see.” Stella coughed lightly, “Well...you‘re almost done, let‘s move on to the theme of our

meeting today, shall we?”

Nova looked at Chester and said calmly, “I‘ve known all the details. I can win. Mr. Don‘s reward is also

satisfactory. I don‘t need anything else. But I need to add a condition.”
