Chapter 1763 I Didn’t Ask You to Withdraw
Since Vincent had said such a thing, Sheena was conscientious. "Rach, if you're busy, I'll leave."
"But I…"
Rachel wanted to pull Sheena, but Sheena turned quickly.
Only Vincent was left standing before her now.
Rachel folded her arms. "Why do you think I'll withdraw with you? Also, what relationship do we have? Why must I
go on a trip with you?"
Vincent asked her, baffled. "Aren't we friends? Moreover, why can't we travel together if we're no longer
responsible for the case?"
The case they were both taking part in was a divorce case. Although the man wasn't as wealthy as Gareth, he had

Now, the man was requesting custody and for the woman to have nothing. The woman had been a professional
secretary before getting married.
The woman was Rachel's client, while the man was Vincent's.
The woman had a lot of evidence. Also, as a woman, Rachel could understand the helplessness of being betrayed
and having everything taken away.
Therefore, Rachel chose to help the woman. As for Vincent… It was because the man paid Vincent well.
Rachel thought of the main points of the case and sneered at Vincent tauntingly. "I'm not like you. I don't go against
my conscience and help the wicked do immoral acts."
Vincent disagreed. "How is this immoral? One party asked me for help as a lawyer. Shouldn't we help everyone as
lawyers?"
Defense lawyers were needed to uphold human rights, whether right or wrong.
Besides, such divorce cases were prevalent. Moreover, the man was rich. He could provide his child with the best
conditions. It was very likely that the woman would lose.
Why wouldn't Vincent take the case when it was a sure win?
Rachel smiled lightly. "Think whatever you want to. We're standing on opposing sides because we value different
things. Since we have different viewpoints, there's no point in discussing anything. I think you're going overboard
with what you're saying."
Rachel's last sentence seemed slightly apathetic.
Vincent disagreed. "How am I going overboard? We're friends. Retreating and backing down is the best solution for
friends under such circumstances. Furthermore, we can't become enemies because of this, can we?"
Upon hearing it, Rachel laughed coldly. "Were we even friends to begin with?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey had no relationship at the beginning. They had even gone up against each other with equal measure because
of the necklace.
But now their relationship had eased slightly.
Vincent sighed deeply. "Let's not talk about the past. Only the present. Rachel, I'm speaking to you nicely now. Why
must you be so antagonistic toward me? I'm really not as bad as you think I am."
"Really?" Rachel answered with a sneer.
Vincent was frustrated. "Really. What do you think of me? I'm really harmless and innocent. If you take this case,
there's no difference if I retreat."
"Then you can withdraw. In any case, I won't back down." Rachel's stance was clear.
Vincent nodded. "Alright, I'll back down. But I have a condition…"
"Why are you discussing conditions with me if you're retreating? I don't care whether you withdraw or not. I'm
neither afraid nor panicking after discovering we're on opposing ends."
Rachel immediately retorted.
Vincent instantly fell silent.
