Chapter 1027
It’s already noon.
Chase had made several phone calls to her, but eventually decided to come directly to her home.
Eleanor blushed and felt her heart pounding. After composing herself, she walked over and sat across
from Chase.
Noticing that she seemed a bit unsteady on her feet, Chase asked, “Ms. Shultz, are you feeling
unwell?”
Eleanor tried to respond, but as soon as she opened her mouth, a severe cough replaced her words
due to her dry throat.
Seeing her in such a bad condition, Chase refrained from blaming her and simply said, “My time is
valuable, please be on time next time.”
Once Eleanor had recovered from the coughing fit, she blushed and apologized, “I’m sorry, I will
definitely be on time next time…”

Finally, Chase glanced at her once more and inquired, “Is your illness alright? It won’t affect our
appearance in court, will it?”
Eleanor blushed again and shook her head, “No, it’s fine. I’ll be okay by tomorrow…”
Standing upstairs, Bernard was looking at his watch while staring at the direction of the living. room.
Hearing this, he cracked a slight smile.
“Where’s your husband?”
Eleanor looked up and saw Bernard’s smile and glared at him.
“He’s throwing a tantrum.”
“Huh?”
Chase was tidying up his files while looking at her.
Eleanor waved her hand awkwardly.
“I’m just messing around.”
Chase was no fool, he could tell something was up between these two.
Looking at Eleanor’s clothes, long sleeves and trousers in summer, with a scarf, if he couldn’t tell, he’d
be an idiot.
He cleared his throat, “Call him down, I need to go back and work on the case after we talk.”
Just as Eleanor was about to get up to call him, she saw a man dressed neatly, sauntering down.

Looking at his neck, Eleanor thought, next time she’d leave a few bites there too.
The clueless man sat down next to her, took her hand, and placed it in his palm.
He stretched out his long legs and lounged on the couch, “Start.”
The words were for Chase. His naturally cool voice and noble temperament made people feel
pressured.
Even Chase, a regular nightclub–goer, felt somewhat tense in front of Bernard. However, the topics
being discussed were Chase’s specialty, so he managed to keep his composure and appear more

While Chase talked incessantly. Bernard couldn’t help but recall a past scene when Chase was
pleading with Latonia on the floor as she pressured him to end things with Sigrid.
As Chase inquired about all the case details and presented potential courtroom situations, he glanced
up at Bernard. Noticing Bernard scrutinizing him, Chase felt uneasy and asked, “Mr. Laurence, did I
miss anything?”
Bernard replied nonchalantly, “No, please continue.”
Chase then handed over the well–organized materials. “I’ve listed out the questions the opposing
lawyer may ask. Take a look,” he said. He had been remarkably thorough, analyzing all possible case
scenarios and preparing the questions that the opposing lawyer might raise.
This showed how much he wanted to win this case, because the client was the relative of the woman
he had been silently in love with for many years.
With the full cooperation of Bernard and his wife, Chase quickly collected all the data. After recording it
in his notebook, he got up to leave.
