Mashrugged his shoulders and said, “Why would | deceive you?”

Jafelt a sourness in his heart.

He never knew!

He looked at Mariela again. She ate a piece of sea cucumber and smiled with her eyes and eyebrows curved. Let

five hundred pages of evidence alone.”

Lennon listened patiently, peeling the shrimp for her, with a gentle expression on his face, “What type of case?”

“It was a defamation case, and we were the plaintiffs,” Mariela took a sip of her drink.“Lenny, you have no idea

how difficult it was to gather evidence for this case. The evidence provided by the client initially was very

incomplete, and it tookover a month to collect all the evidence.”

“Over a month? Isnt that the tbefore we got engaged?” Lennon placed the peeled shrimp into Mariela’s

bowl. “That's so tough.”

“Yeah, it was during the tbefore the engagement,” Mariela dipped her sauce. “It was a bit tough, but after

receiving the victorious verdict, all the hardships were worth it.”

Speaking of this, Mariela opened her phone with a smile, “By the way, my client also gavea commemorative

flag, take a look.”

Mariela excitedly opened her phone album and flipped through the banners she had taken. Her eyes sparkled

with brilliance, “It’s the first t| have received a banner from the person involved.”

Mariela was as happy as a child in kindergarten who had received a little red flower. Her clear and beautiful eyes

were shining, waiting for her parents’ praise.

Lennon's eyes were filled with tenderness, and his deep voice was wrapped in indulgence, “You were really

amazing.”

“Hehe. Mariela blinked her eyes, looking mischievous, “Just so-so.”

Jafelt a tightness in her chest and a slight stiffness in her back as she read.

But now, he realizes that he was wrong.

They looked exactly like a couple in love!

He said that she worked hard every day and earned only that little money in a month, which was not enough for

him to have a meal and drink with his friends.

Little did they know, the person was wealthy and coming to work was merely a way to experience life and fulfill

their own potential.

When Mariela spoke to Lennon about her work, her eyes sparkled as if she was radiating charm from head to toe,

like a dazzling gem. She seemed completely transformed.
