No Chance of Remarriage Get Lost (Elisa) novel Chapter 2178

Since she had taken on this case, she would not give up halfway.

With the conversation reaching this point, Rachel's intentions couldn't be clearer.

Furthermore, after spending such a long time together, Vincent was well aware of the woman's character.

Unable to persuade her, he could only give up.

However, he didn't leave, opting instead to take a seat on the adjacent sofa.

Seeing that he had no intention of leaving, Rachel felt a sense of helplessness. “Vincent, your law firm isn't around here, and your office is even farther away. If you want to be a lawyer here, wait until Liz returns, and then have a proper discussion with her.”

“I'm not looking to become a lawyer here. I'm just waiting for you to finish work. I'm not leaving because our relationship hasn't been clarified, and I wish to avoid any misconceptions from others,” he asserted.

He then added, “Since you're unwilling to release this case, it only strengthens my resolve to remain close to you. Although the Gardner family ranks slightly below ours, they still hold substantial influence in Bayswe. Now that you've taken over the case, don't you think they'll cause some trouble for you?”

“So, are you staying by my side to protect me?” Rachel couldn't help but smile at Vincent's words.

She was well aware of the sincerity in his words, yet she still chose to taunt him playfully.

She hoped he would feel saddened, and once his heart had been broken, he would never appear by her side again.

This was the best outcome for them.

Upon hearing her words, Vincent nodded decisively. “Indeed, I'm here to protect you. As the distinguished heir of the Shane family, even if the Gardner family considers taking action against you, they wouldn't dare to with me present.”

Rachel knew he wasn't joking.

However, since she had already taken over the case, transferring it to Vincent seemed impossible.

“I'm already the designated lawyer for this case. If you're interested in taking over, your expertise would be better suited defending the Gardner family,” she asserted.

“Rachel, I'm not that kind of despicable person. The reason I didn't take this case is because I see only a twenty percent chance of successfully defending William's innocence—” Vincent clarified.

“Oh, Vincent the Great Lawyer, isn't a twenty percent chance sufficient for someone of your caliber?” Rachel interjected with a smile, cutting him off.

She lifted her head, her gaze burning intensely.
