The camera immediately focused on Jasmine. She looked as if she was greatly wronged and kept choking up. I was even more surprised
Nichs had always been gentle and proper in public had rarely seen him confront anyone in a public setting before I did not expect such harsh words to be directed at Jasmine
The director was skilled at reading the room. He immediately signaled for the other guests to pass the mic to me. For a moment, my extremely surprised expression was captured on camera, but I quicklyposed myself and smiled slightly "Thank you, Ms. Cooper, for raising this question. Otherwise, I wouldn''t have known people might think this way
e a rtively
"My initial intention in participating in the show was to make people aware that we now have a sound legal system in our daily lives.
"When we encounter issues, we''re not fighting alone. I believe everyone sitting here shares this thought. With so many like-minded people, I''m at ease leaving the show in your hands.
"My main profession is being awyer. Compared to those online, many more people need help offline."
After I finished speaking the venue remained quiet. I was not sure if people were moved by my speech or if they were still shocked that Nichs defended me earlier. There was no response at all. "p, p, p "Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
Suddenly, apuse filled the quiet venue. It was followed by more enthusiastic apuse erupting in an
instant
I looked up at Nichs with emotion pooling in my eyes. This seemed to be the most enthusiastic apuse I had ever received. Among them was apuse from him, the one who was against the idea of me working
I beamed in the light. At that moment, Nichs also smiled. The production team edited together the faces of Nichs, Jasmine, and I. Compared to her pale face, Nichs and I looked incredibly happy as we smiled The final dinner ended perfectly. At the end of the show, the production team invited guests to stay for dinner, which would be aired as a bonus clip.
Nichs was of course invited. He strode onto the stage and put his arm around my shoulder. I tried to dodge, but he did not give me the chance. I struggled a few times without sess.
Without hesitation, he led me to sit at the center of the dining table, which was right in front of the small
Camera
"Your ne is crooked."
He nced at me and turned to adjust it. Watching his attentive manner, I thought his taut jawline would once again captivate the audience
"Oh?" The weight on my neck suddenly lightened. It was followed by pearls ttering to the ground.
"It''s
my
fault, dear, I identally broke your favorite pearl ne. After the show, I''ll take you to buy an even bigger one."
He smiled. A fresh hickey was visible on my corbone,
Jasmine''s eyes were red. If she still did not understand the situation at that moment, she was truly beyond help. Nichs was not here to help her, but rather to step on her to show me some respect.
Nichs''s warning to her was not a joke. He said she had crossed his bottom line by repeatedly hurting. Ariana, but Ariana was not missing
any
limbs, so how was that hurt?
Not being able to bear children anymore was called being hurt?
Respectful praise sounded from all around. Nichs just smiled faintly as he kept his arm around my shoulder. He graciously drank quite a bit of the wine others offered him.
To my own surprise, I did not turn him away at this moment. I looked like an obedient wife by his side.
Wasn''t tant favoritism from him what I once wanted? It seemed that his actions had made up for some past regrets at this moment.
As the drinking continued, someone boldly asked Nichs about his rtionship with Jasmine. Nichs just calmly said one sentence, and it made Jasmine snap.
