Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 1469

Nina's grandmother, Gemma Pell, slowly got out of the car in her walking stick with Sean's help.

Some reporters gasped, "It's the plaintiff's attorney and family!" They recognized Gemma due to her action of splashing hot soup at Sophia at Nina's funeral, an incident still highly discussed.

"The plaintiff's attorney looks familiar… Gosh, isn't he Ms. Alyssa's secretary?" a reporter exclaimed while pointing a finger at Sean.

"You're right! I can't believe that he's an attorney. Ms. Alyssa's employees are talented indeed."

The group of reporters went up to Sean. He did not need to do anything to attract all attention away from Simon.

Meanwhile, Simon's eyes wavered in shock as his blood froze. He had repeatedly sent people to ask around about the identity of his opponent in court, but he failed to get any information despite his extensive connections.

He was shocked to find Sean as the attorney who took on Nina's case.

"A-Attorney Lynch, what do we do?" Simon's assistant, who was uninformed about Simon and Sean's relationship, gasped in surprise.

"Hmph! He's biting off more than he could chew!" hissed Simon through gritted teeth. "He might be a top student of Solana City College of Law and holds a practicing license, but so what? He's been working as the Taylors' lapdog forever and has never attended court. I bet he's forgotten about the procedure. We don't have to worry about him."

Simon believed that Alyssa had made such an arrangement to spite him. He thought, "You dumb bitch. I'll teach Sean a lesson in court!"

Simon was about to leave when Sean said, "Simon, my dear brother!"

Sean had put Gemma under the care of the bodyguard and approached Simon with a cold look. His action dropped a bombshell, as no one knew he and Simon were brothers. The two brothers would clash in the court—one seeking justice for the victim while the other seeking to clear the charges for a tycoon's wife.

The reporters braced themselves for the dramatic event, one which clearly showed the difference in the siblings' moral character.

Simon clenched his jaw in resentment as his archenemy closed in. Sean had deliberately revealed their relationship to mock him.

Simon began, "I might be your brother, but everyone is equal—"

"...before the law. I'm not asking you to go easy on me because I know you very well. You show no mercy, not even to your family," Sean cut him off with a calm smile. "As Nina Carle's attorney, I will do my best to make Sophia Kirkman, the murderer, pay for her crime."

Gemma, covering her face, sobbed in angst and grief upon hearing Nina's name. The reporters, moved by Gemma's emotions, harbored growing resentment against Simon.

"Oh, a murderer, you say? What makes you say so?"
