Skipped at the altar, Taken by his uncle Novel

Chapter 191 Chapter 191 Whitney didn't find out about Oliver's car accident until she got home. "What, is he okay?" Whitney asked, her voice full of concern. 57 E20 vouchers Klein hung up his coat and rolled up his sleeves. "He broke his leg and he's in a cast. Looks like he'll be laid up for a couple of months." "That's pretty serious." Whitney said, unable to hide her worry. Klein didn't seem bothered at all. "It's fine. You can't win your wife over without a little hardship." Whitney looked at him, amused. "Klein, you never even had to chase me. I married you right away.

So does that mean you never had to suffer at all?" A hint of something deeper flickered in Klein's eyes as he smirked. "Who says I didn't?" With that, he headed straight upstairs to the bathroom. 'Did Klein ever really have to go through any hardship?' Whitney wondered. Whitney cocked her head, thinking. Suddenly, she got curious about what Klein was like when he was younger. 'He must've still been living abroad back then,' she thought. Whitney had picked up a client at a university today. As she got to the campus gate, she noticed what looked like Riley's car parked nearby.

'Is Riley handling something around here too?' Whitney wondered. Just as she was about to head over, she saw Riley grab a girl by the arm, talking to her about something, tension obvious between them. The girl suddenly jerked her arm free, and Riley lost her balance, falling hard to the ground. After a brief moment of hesitation, the girl walked away. She jumped on a man's motorcycle and roared away. Whitney rushed over. "Riley, are you okay?" She immediately started checking Riley to see if she was hurt. Riley managed a bitter smile and shook her head.

"It's fine, just a little scrape." Whitney had some alcohol wipes with her, so she cleaned up the scrape and stuck a band-aid on it. "Try not to get it wet today, or it might get infected. And remember to change the band-aid when you get home," Whitney said, her tone gentle and caring. A wistful look crossed Riley's face. "If only my daughter were as smart and reliable as you." she sighed. Whitney was taken aback, and then asked softly, "Was that girl just now your daughter?" 16:33 Thu, Jan 1 ở Me Chapter 191 Riley nodded and said. "Yeah. When I divorced my ex, he got custody of her.

After she turned eighteen, my ex reached out and said she's seeing some guy who seems like trouble, and asked me to talk some sense into her." "Lately, she's been skipping class and fooling around with that brat. But we've never really been close. Honestly, I have no idea how to reach her anymore." Whitney fell silent. This was definitely a tough situation. "You saw him yourself. That boyfriend of hers, tattoos, smokes, fights, street races, he's got his hands in all kinds of trouble. Drugs are perhaps the only thing he hasn't tried yet.

Honestly, I'm at my wit's end," Riley said, her voice full of anxiety. Whitney had dealt with plenty of juvenile crime cases before, and she'd seen parents just as worried and helpless as Riley. She just hadn't expected that Riley, who looked barely in her forties, already had a daughter in college. But it was an average private university, not exactly top-tier. "Riley, have you ever talked to Boss about this?" Whitney asked. Riley shook her head and said, "I just told him I have a daughter." "Alright," Whitney nodded lightly.

"Don't worry, I won't mention it to Boss." "Honestly, it's not a big deal if he knows. I just don't want him stressing out over my problems too," Riley said. Whitney figured it was just a little hiccup, but that afternoon, a friend hit her up asking if she knew any good criminal defense lawyers. Whitney immediately thought of Riley and gave her name. But it turned out the person the client wanted to sue was Riley's daughter's boyfriend. Riley's hands trembled with anger as she went through the evidence. Whitney glanced at the files too, and she felt a chill run down her spine.

That punk even went after a sixteen-year-old girl. 'What about Riley's daughter?' Whitney thought, feeling uneasy. "Riley, you really shouldn't take this case. Let someone else handle it," Whitney said, her voice gentle but firm. "Yeah, I can't take it anyway, because of the conflict of interest. I tried calling her, but she just hung up on me," Riley said, frustration clear in her voice. "Whitney, can you take this case for me? I really don't want anyone else to know about it," Riley pleaded. Whitney understood her concerns.

"But I've never handled a criminal defense case before." "Don't worry, I'll guide you through it," Riley said, trying to reassure her. Whitney nodded. Later that afternoon, the client came to the law firm. "Ms. Moore, Ms. Geller, is the evidence enough to convict him?" the client asked, her voice full of hope. "Ms. Brooke, we've reviewed whether your daughter was forced into the act against her will. Your surveillance footage is well- preserved, but since the report was made a month after the incident, it may be difficult for the police to collect evidence.

Besides, since the defendant drugged your daughter before the assault, proving that will be challenging," Whitney explained. Chapter 191 The client looked anxious. "So my daughter can't win this case?" Riley tried to reassure her. "There's a chance, but we can't make any promises. We'll do everything we can to gather evidence and protect the victim's rights." Once the client left, Riley rushed off to the campus to look for her daughter. Whitney couldn't shake the heavy feeling in her chest. When Klein got home, he could tell right away that she was in a bad mood.

"Klein, why don't we try for a boy?" Whitney blurted out, her voice a little shaky. Klein listened to her rambling and couldn't help feeling speechless. "Baby, there are all kinds of people out there. Whether we have a son or a daughter, they're bound to run into trouble sometimes. But with us around, our kids might act out a little, but it won't ever get that bad," Klein said, trying to comfort her. "Don't worry. If anyone ever messes with our daughter, I won't let them walk out of there alive," Klein added, his voice low and serious. Whitney was speechless.

"You can be tough, but don't break the law. I really don't want to end up defending you in court someday," Whitney said, half-joking, half-serious. The best way to fight off her anxiety was to keep her so exhausted that she didn't even have the energy to worry about anything. Whitney had no idea where Klein learned all those moves, and he never seemed to get bored of showing them off. Right before she passed out, Whitney shot a look at his waist and cursed.

'Did you secretly pop some kind of performance pill or something?" The next morning, Klein looked refreshed as ever, while Whitney looked totally wrecked. "Baby, isn't your period supposed to start on the 15th?" Klein asked, trying to sound casual. Whitney blinked, a little surprised. "Yeah, I think so. It's only the 13th, so it's not due yet." Klein mentally marked the date, already crossing his fingers that Whitney's period would be late this month. But unfortunately, Whitney got her period ahead of time that very night.
