Chapter 112 – Back Home to Marry Off Myself Novel

He sat down across from Loredana, “I have brought what you wanted. Have you planned what to do next?”

Loredana raised her head, looking at Cormac, and nodded, “Yes, please give it to me.”

Terry did not take it out at once but continued to ask inquisitively, “What are you going to do next? Let me tell you something. As you just came back and know nothing about the situation in the country. The

DC Law Firm in City B is very famous in the country. All of their lawyers are elite. If we can hire one as our attorney, the possibility of winning is higher.”

As Terry said, his face darkened, “I had found one originally, but when he heard that it was the Herbert family, he rejected. “

Loredana then understood Cormac’s intention at that moment.

With only the evidence that Terry had, it wouldn’t be possible to deal with Maria Herbert.

Until then, the Herbert family would step in to find someone and spend some money to hold things down.

“Why aren’t you talking?” Terry stared at Loredana.

“Give me the thing and let me handle this.”

“What are you going to do? I can help you.” Terry wasn’t distrusting Loredana. Just that this wasn’t a matter for only one person, but the two of them should try, not just pushing Loredana to do it alone.

Terry knew that this wasn’t simple.

After all, it had been six years.

Loredana gathered the suit around her and spoke softly, “You should have noticed that this case isn’t simple at all. The Herbert family was well-known and respected. They won’t allow such thing to happen. With just only you and me, we can’t do it.”

“So how?” Terry was nervous and bounced up from the sofa.

“Don’t be anxious.” Loredana hurriedly reassured him, “That’s why I asked you to give me the stuff.

There’s someone here to help us.”

“Who…”

Terry reacted immediately.

His jaw dropped, but then he quickly closed his mouth and pursed it tightly.

He pointed cautiously to the man who was standing beside him with a cold face all the time, “Is he going to help us?”

Loredana nodded.

Terry jerked his hand back, holding it tight.

He then realized and immediately put all the things he brought on the table.

“Let me know if you need anything.” Terry smiled.

Loredana had a look and confirmed that it was something Terry had shown her.

At the meantime.

There was a knock on the door of Loredana’s place.

Maxina Lennon opened the door.

Sampson Herbert had a bandage wrapped around his head. The wound on his head was cleaned, and he had changed his clothes too.

Maxina was stunned, “What happened to your head? How did it get hurt?”

Sampson had a strained expression and smiled, “I accidentally hit it.”

“Be careful.” Maxina said with concern.

After all, they have met for a long time. Although Maxina knew that Loredana was impossible to be with him, proper manners were still necessary.

“Sure, I will. Where’s Lola?” Sampson looked into the house and saw no sign of Loredana.

“She didn’t come home last night. She came back this morning for a while and headed out again. I’m not sure what is she up to.” Maxina said.

“Oh, I see. I’m here for her. Why aren’t you letting me in?” Sampson asked with a smile.

“Oh, silly me.” Maxina hurriedly let him in.

Sampson looked into the bedroom, “Where’s the two little kids?”

Maxina wiped her hands on the apron and poured Sampson a glass of water, “Samuel is playing with

Simona inside.”

“Oh.” Sampson sat on the sofa and asked inadvertently, “Did Lola say anything when she got back?”

He took a sip of the water, hiding his panic.

“Nope. She came back just to look at the kids. She didn’t even have her breakfast at home.” Maxina smiled.

“I met Lola yesterday, and I mentioned the matter between the two of us again. She seemed to be mad and walked away then. I was afraid that she would get angry so I came over to have a look on her.”

The smile on Maxina’s face disappeared. This wasn’t her daughter’s style.

Even if Loredana rejected, she would never leave him on the spot.

Loredana was clear about her grudges and grievances.

Although Loredana didn’t like Sampson, Sampson helped her a lot in the past few years. Loredana wouldn’t be that ignorant and turned her back on Sampson.

“Maxina, I would like to invite you to a lunch and apologize to Lola.” Sampson’s eyes flickered away, not daring to look straight at Maxina.

He had a guilty conscience.

Maxina Lennon was hesitating. Previously, she wouldn’t doubt and have agreed with it.

Now that Maxina had promised Loredana Flores not to put pressure on her and wouldn’t even set her up with Sampson too. Maxina was not dared to agree on it.

“I need to call and ask Lola about this matter.” Maxina said while heading to grab the phone. Sampson held the phone, “Just a lunch. No need to ask her. I have brought my car here.”

Maxina relented. She was afraid that Loredana would be unhappy for her making such a decision.

It wasn’t easy for Loredana raised the whole family all by herself. Maxina didn’t want her daughter to be sad.

“Come on. We’ve known each other for so long, do you still mistrust me?” Sampson stood up.

Maxina had a look at the time. It was just 10 o’clock and not even time to have lunch, “Would it be too early for lunch now?”

“The restaurant that I reserved is quite far from here. When we get there, it would be noon already. Not early at all.” Sampson tried his best to convince Maxina.

Up to this point, it wouldn’t be good for her to refuse Sampson again. Maxina had no choice but agreed with it, “Have a seat on the sofa and wait for me. I’ll get the two kids ready.”

She untied her apron and went into the bedroom.

Samuel Flores was sitting at the bay window with Simona Flores in his arms. He was teaching her to draw with the tablet.

Loredana gave Samuel the tablet and phone to call his teacher, and he was able to play games too.

Maxina picked up Simona. Simona was still in her casual clothes, and she needed a change.

Samuel leaned against the soft cushions, playing with the tablet on his laps, and asked, “Grandma, why changing Simona’s clothes? Are we going out?”

“Yes. Your… Sampson said that he wants to bring us out for a lunch.” Speaking of Sampson, Maxina thought of her son.

Samuel sat up straight in a shock, blinking his eyes, and looked at Maxina, “Grandma, what did you just said?”

Maxina then patiently repeated her words.

Samuel put down the tablet and rushed to the door from the bay window. He slightly opened the door and looked through the doorway. Indeed, he saw Sampson there, sitting on the sofa with a bandage on his head.

Samuel recalled from the video he had seen in Cormac Mendelsohn’s phone. It was about Loredana being chased after.

He had never seen his mother being so panicked and helpless.

Samuel clenched his hands tightly, “Such a two-faced liar.”

Sampson seemed like the right person on the surface, but secretly, he was actually harassing Loredana.

“What are you saying?” Maxina turned around and had a look at Samuel, who was mumbling to himself at the door, “Do you want to change your clothes as well?”

“Need not.” Samuel answered in a cold voice. Wanted to have lunch?

No way!

He didn’t want to have lunch with Sampson.

Who knew if this hypocrite would arrest them for threatening Loredana.

Thinking of it, Samuel was chilled with fear.

“I have to pee.” After saying that, Samuel rushed into the bathroom and locked himself inside.

What to do?

How could he stop Maxina from going out with Sampson, without letting Sampson found out?

Samuel sat on the toilet lid, feeling distressed. Suddenly, he remembered that he had Cormac’s number and dialled it…

WY Group.

Another stranger was in Cormac’s office.

This man was Cormac’s buddy.

Last time going to KS Club, he was the one who rented the venue and had invited Cormac.

But then Cormac met Loredana who was almost being raped, and he didn’t go.

This guy still bore it in mind.

Armand Bernie mocked as he entered, “Haha, I never thought that you might need my help too someday, after getting stood up by you. What are the odds of that?”

When he received the call, he thought that he was misheard.

Cormac didn’t even bother to argue with him, “The things and plaintiff are here.”

For filing a lawsuit, a lawyer must get to know all the details of the incident.

He had to justify the availability of the evidence.

Armand curled his lips, “This has gone too far. You’ve hired some of the best lawyers in my firm as your company’s legal affairs professionals. And now you want me, the boss, to file a lawsuit for you personally?”

Huh…

Armand then realized than the person in a suit sitting on the sofa wasn’t a guy, but a woman.

He tilted his head while walking towards the sofa and stared at Loredana, “This is your ex-wife, right?”

When Cormac and Loredana got married, Armandwas studying abroad and wasn’t in the country at that time.

Later, Loredana had left again.

So they didn’t meet before.

He got the news from Abbott Baron that Cormac’s ex-wife, who was divorced after a month after their marriage, had returned.

“I missed my chance last time. This time, I have to take a good look at her, the one that Cormac is fond of.”

And it was indeed impressing.

Armand moved towards Loredana, but he was pulled at the collar of his shirt suddenly, “Get down to business.”

“Hey, don’t take it like this. What for burning the bridges? Do you still want me to help you out?”

Armand was moved back a few steps after being pulled by Cormac.

When being stared, Loredana twirled her hair to gloss over her awkward moment.

Terry Holmes was jaw dropped at the side. He couldn’t believe that the CEO of the WY Group was

Loredana’s ex-husband.

“Cormac, that’s not how you behave. I need to have a talk with you. We shouldn’t…”
