Chapter 499: Chapter 499

Hunter replied with a fake smile, “Since the client managed to find me and trusts me, I naturally have to

do my best to win the case.”

“It’s interesting that you say that.”

Axel crossed his legs and appraised Hunter like he was a criminal. ”

Those who can hire Mr. Lovett here to defend them are eith powerful. It looks like the threshold for

becoming your clie high.”-

“Not necessarily. Although I might be managing the firm, the fir mine alone. Not only do I have to make

sure the two other shareholders get their dividends, but I also have dozens of lawye under me to feed.

I’m also just a working man. I can’t help it.” Hunter sighed dramatically.

Ugh!

When Axel, Ralph, and Bella heard these hypocritical remarks, they nearly vomited their food back up!

How was it that Hunter and Steven were so different despite both. being Mr. Lovett’s sons?

“You’re a top-tier lawyer in Savrow now, Hunter. You’re well-known even nationally.”

Steven, who had been silent all this while, finally spoke with a cold. laugh. “Of all the cases you took

this year, the lowest professional fee you charged was $2 million, and the highest was $15 million, and

that’s just your personal earnings. It doesn’t include the commission those lawyers under you get.”

The dining hall suddenly fell silent.

Wyatt and Neil also stopped chatting and looked towards the younger generation’s side of the table.

“Steven, mine and the law firm’s income is a private topic. We shouldn’t be talking about this here, now

should we?” Hunter spoke stiffly as his smile faded. The movement tugged at the wound had been

covered with foundation.

“I’m only saying all this to illustrate one thing-which is that you lack money. In fact, you’ve even saved

up to the point most norm people won’t be able to finish spending in their lifetime.”

Steven let out a soft laugh. “So, I don’t understand. Now that money as a reason has been eliminated,

why is it that you took the Salvadors, case despite knowing they were on the opposing side of Ms. Bella

and are working against her?”

The rest were shocked.

What a fellow!

Tonight, Steven’s nickname had to be “Mr. Righteous”. He was ju here to screw his brother over!

Now that Steven had exposed Hunter’s hypocritical nature in front of everybody, were the two brothers

really going to turn on each other?

Bella had not even given Steven a single glance throughout the whole night.

At the moment, she wore an icy expression as she looked up impassively. Her clear and cutting gaze

fell on his face.

She knew Steven was speaking up for her.

But she did not want him to do this, and she did not need him to do this either.

“Steve! You can’t air your grudges right now, even if you have them you have anything to say, we can

talk about it at home.” Clarence tugged at Steven under the table, sweating nervously.

But it was like Steven wore an iron mask over his handsome face, clearly having no intention of letting

up on Hunter.

Hunter had already lost the ability to control his expression, and it was so ugly that he looked like he

was seriously ill.

“Steve! Don’t talk about that here.”

Neil reprimanded Steven sternly and turned to give Wyatt a bitter smile. “I’m really sorry, Chairman

Thompson. It seems my son’s manners are lacking. I’m sorry you have to see this.”

“Oh, you’re fine.”

Wyatt remained calm and composed, a slow smile spreading acros his face. “I watched Steven grow

up from a young age, and he’s always been by Asher’s side, working. Later on, he went on to assis

Bella. He’s a capable young man with a good character. I like Steven very much, and I’ve always

thought of him as a godson. I know very well what he’s like, so I didn’t take it to heart at all.”

Godson?!

Wyatt’s casual remark had given Steven’s status a huge raise and a huge buff, while giving Hunter a

heavy blow
