Chapter 147 Intimate Photos
Ava was dressed in a delicate white dress, laughing and joking with a stranger. Her enchanting
demeanor made the man next to her blush.
“I’m relying on you for this case.”
“No problem. It’s just a small matter. But can you handle your alcohol? You don’t look like a wild one…”
“I can handle some. Lawyers like you must have a challenging time in their daily work. Today is a good
opportunity for you to unwind.”
“Then I’ll follow your lead. Thanks to the timely rain outside, it has created this chance. It’s an honor to
have your company, Ms. Ava.”
In just a few sentences, Chloe grasped the situation at hand. Without hesitation, she boldly approached
the pair, a sneer on her face.
As soon as Ava caught sight of Chloe, her previously joyful expression turned serious. The man beside
her observed the sudden change and inquired, “What’s the matter?”

The man paused, following her gaze, and his eyes landed on Chloe, filled with astonishment. He had
thought Ava was beautiful before, but now she seemed to pale in comparison. However, the allure of a
woman as captivating as Chloe was too much for him to handle, while Ava was just right for him.
The lawyer, Gideon Parker, looked at Chloe and said in a firm tone, “You’re the ingrate I’ve heard so
much about, I presume?”
Chloe could not be bothered to respond to him and addressed Ava directly, “Did you receive the court
summons?”
Ava timidly replied, “Coco, we’re family. Why do we have to make it so embarrassing?”
“Stop pretending. I don’t have time for your theatrics. Save your pitiful act for the judge on the 27th.”
Ava was anxious about Chloe’s assertive attitude, fearing that they might lose the lawsuit. However,
her worries subsided when she took into account Gideon’s renowned reputation as a lawyer. In Aesper
City, there were few who could rival him-one of those few being Samuel
Winson.
She found it hard to believe that Chloe, with her limited means, could afford to secure the services of
such a high-caliber attorney.
Gideon frowned in the face of Chloe’s aggressive attitude. Just as he was about to intervene,
Ava stopped him before he could speak.
“Could you give us a moment alone? I’d like to have a private conversation with Coco”
Gideon threatened Chloe with his glare. “Be more polite when talking to your sister.”
Chloe glanced at him, inwardly sighing at another man who could not see beyond appearances. Or
maybe men simply preferred girls that possessed soft and gentle demeanors.
After seeing Gideon leave, the fleeting tenderness on Ava’s face quickly vanished. Her voice dripped
with disgust as she said, “You witnessed it yourself. He’s Gideon Parker, a renowned force in the legal
field. Use your common sense and file for the cancellation of the trial if you want to salvage any
semblance of dignity.”

“Gideon? Never heard of him, but I trust that the lawyer I’ve chosen is far more formidable than him.”
Ava burst into laughter, her sneer evident. “You didn’t hire Samuel Winson, did you? Do you know how
much he charges for his cases? You won’t earn enough in a lifetime.”
Chloe shrugged nonchalantly. “Well, let’s just wait and see.”
Ava’s expression shifted slightly, and she asked with a hint of uncertainty, “Who’s this lawyer you’ve
hired?”
“There’s no need for me to disclose that to you.”
Chloe’s unwavering demeanor heightened Ava’s sense of unease. She clenched her teeth and
retorted, “I have evidence of your disruptive behavior at the engagement banquet.”
Chloe’s brows furrowed slightly. Only three people were aware of that incident at the time. While it was
widely known that Chloe was involved, the only person besides Emily who could possess solid
evidence was her despicable ex-boyfriend.
“Did Em’s ex-boyfriend give them to you?”
“Not only that, but I also possess intimate, explicit photos of Emily. I paid over 3 grand to acquire them.
You’re not worried about your own reputation? Then do you not care about protecting Emily’s image?
Don’t you wish to prevent her intimate photos from being exposed to the public?”
