Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue
Chapter 1513

Dad! Mom! Don't listen to him! It's not like that!" Simon angrily defended himself, "Steven and Seanconspired together and caused me trouble in court.

"Now, he is jumping at the first chance to speak for Sean and try to tarnish my reputation! I believeAlyssa and Jasper have bribed both of them! They are lackeys for the Taylors. They are just as bad asthem."

Unable to endure any longer, Steven interrupted before Simon could finish. He, who had alwaysbeen poised and proper, punched Simon!

He was more ruthless than Sean and punched Simon right in the nose. Sean stagged backward fromthe force, and his nose bled profusely.

"Sigh, a leopard can't change its spots.”

Steven shook his sore fingers. Rage burned in his eyes. "If you claim I conspired with Sean on this,so be it. Sean collaborated with me to beat the crap out of the shameless, pretentious, andmalicious person you are! What can you do about it?"

Simon held his sore and painful nose. He pointed at Steven's stern face and muttered, "You..."Steven glanced at the grateful couple with an inexplicable look. Then, he bent down to pick up thesuitcase that fell on the ground. He took a stack of envelopes from it. Then, he solemnlyapproached Spencer and passed the envelopes to him.

"This..." Hesitant, Spencer took them from him.

"These are the reports collected from the masses during my three years as the presiding judge. Thisstack comprises all the cases Simon defended. These citizens did not have the support from the richand powerful and couldn't afford a lawyer like Simon.

"So, even when they were wrongly accused and suffered significant losses, they could only silentlyendure it. They had no means to seek justice for themselves.

"As such, they send letters to the court, exposing Simon for his treacherous deeds. I've read everyword in every letter multiple times for countless nights. I lose sleep thinking about the contents ofthese letters.”

Steven's eyes reddened as he spoke. His throat constricted. "As a judge, I've carried this guilt forthree years. I know everything Simon did in secret. But, to protect this kinship, both of your feelingsand his image as the eldest, I've locked these letters in my drawer and pretended they didn't exist."I regret it so much now and blame myself for it. I'm wrong for abusing my power. I've lost the rightto wear this robe. So, once everything is over, I will resign.”

Spencer's eyes dilated. His vision darkened as he struggled to steady his feet.

"Resign? Have you lost your mind? What are you talking about?"

Sinead's heart ached profusely as she wailed, "You've gone through so much to get to where youare today. You are the only son who can take over the family. Do you know how proud your dad isof you? How can you resign?"

Tatiana, observant, noticed something wrong with Spencer. She quickly went to help Spencer up."Uncle Spencer, please sit!"

She carefully sat Spencer down and gently instructed Sean, "Sean, please get your father a glass ofwarm water."

"Okay, I'm on it!" Sean complied and went to get water.

Spencer carefully glanced at Tatiana from the side. Then, he heaved a loud sigh.

He was unsure why he didn't feel any disgust when Tatiana called her "Uncle Spencer”

In fact, he was impressed by it.
