the two-faced Adopted Girl Who Melted CEO's Ice-Cold Heart Chapter 437 "Are you afraid of me?" The man’s voice was chil
"Leclair? Are you talking about Ignatius Leclair, known as the Crown Prince of the South Seas? I don’t know him." Desmond Wood asked with a light laugh. He had put in so effort before coming to the South Seas and knew about this man. It seed he wasn’t too far behind him in looks.
The man’s voice seed naturally cheerful and extrely pleasant to listen to.
Delphine sighed in relief and then carefully recounted the events of that night.
Desmond Wood was sowhat surprised after hearing her account: "So this Miss from the Cloud Family is actually a socialite with a fake persona? That’s interesting."
The baby-faced man stroked his sharp chin, thought for a mont, and continued, "This lawsuit is a bit tricky. For attempted assault, it’s not a serious cri, especially since you’re not the assailant. The problem is you’re a public figure, and even before the lawsuit is fought, you’ve already lost the most important thing: your reputation. The Cloud Family’s intentions are also clear: they want to ruin your reputation. With such imnse public pressure, they are generally aiming to drive you out of the South Seas. Apologies for doing a little howork before coming here, but it seems Miss Gu has recently found her biological father?"
Delphine’s body suddenly stiffened, her voice turning slightly cold as she asked, "Mr. Wood, how do you know this?"
"In our line of work as lawyers, sotis we’re like private detectives; we need to be inford, with a clear mind." Desmond Wood continued to release his friendly smile, afraid of scaring the tense and pale woman before him. He said with a smile, "Miss Gu can trust ; I know far more than you can imagine."
Now not only the Cloud Family but even the Leclair Family had spoken out. The entire legal team from the Leclair Family was on standby; who would dare to muddy these waters?
"Just as you said, what impact does it have on the Cloud Family whether we, as father and daughter, stay in the South Seas or not? What is the Cloud Family’s purpose in going to such lengths?" Delphine frowned.
The baby-faced man smiled aningfully and said softly, "There must be sothing they’re after, Miss Gu. I wonder if you could talk with Uncle Yun. The real target of the Cloud Family’s actions is likely still the two of you, father and daughter."
"Okay, Mr. Wood, have you eaten? This café also offers so simple als." Delphine looked at the baby-faced man. For so reason, his smile seed sowhat contagious, making it easy for people to trust him.
"I can have dinner again; I’m sure Miss Gu must be quite busy." Desmond Wood smiled and pointed at the handso man who had just entered. He really wasn’t as good-looking as him, and yet he had a poker face.
Ignatius Leclair entered the café and walked straight to where Delphine was. Seeing her drinking coffee with a strange man, he instantly frowned, his handso face tightened, and he said in a low voice, "You were followed by reporters when you left. Who is this man?"
The man’s deep, narrow phoenix eyes coldly looked at Desmond Wood.
"I am Desmond Wood, Miss Gu’s defense attorney. Pleased to et you, Mr. Leclair." The baby-faced guy smiled, with a hint of appraising in his final words.
Ignatius Leclair’s phoenix eyes flashed a trace of coldness, thinking this guy’s brain must have been kicked by a donkey to dare take this case.
"Delphine, we need to talk." Ignatius Leclair stepped closer, seeing her reflexively stand up and take a step back. His phoenix eyes grew profound, as dark as ink, and the hand he raised froze in midair.
"Are you afraid of ?" The man’s voice was chillingly cold, and the emotions he had restrained for two days threatened to crumble as he suddenly grabbed her hand, pronouncing each word carefully, "We need to talk, just the two of us."
