Your Love Is My Weapon
Chapter 85

Jacob sent Arya back to the villa, but Xavier wasn't there.

It was near the end of the year, many things in the company needed him to deal with.

After having dinner and taking a shower, Arya went to bed. At midnight, she felt someone huggingher, but she was too sleepy to open her eyes.

When she woke up in the morning, she was alone in bed.

Xavier had already left.

After she got up, she asked Caspar to meet her. She handed the evidence she had collected to himand they discussed the case with him for a long time.

Xavier hadn't returned to the villa in the past two days. As for what he was busy with, Arya didn'tknow and wasn't concerned.

She was so focused on the case and she felt free without Xavier.

The next morning, she received a call from Caspar again. He asked her to prepare for the trial."How could it be so fast?" It was not long after Caspar's lawsuit was filed. “How could it be acceptedso quickly?"

"It hasn't been in process before. It seems that someone has interfered, and this time it is the same.Thus, it could be processed fast.” Caspar said.

Rufus had always wanted to use this to frame Xavier. However, he and Harriet's engagement wasbroken.

Knowing that his previous plan would be failed, Rufus then played a trick and asked the relevantpersonnel to delay the case.

After all, with the relationship between Harrison Family and Jones Family, as long as the case wasnot settled, the Jones Family would definitely be involved.

The case was related to killing, so people's comments were harsh. And Rufus deliberately stirred uptrouble and tried to undermine the Jones Family.

Thus, many people even cursed the Jones Family.

"Bullying and arrogation” became the label of the Jones Family.

Naturally, Xavier couldn't ignore the bad news.

Either he ignored it, or he hit the nail on the head.

He dealt with Marshal's case in such a short time in response to the news.

The case would be finished before the new year. After this year, no one would remember whathappened before.

As the old saying went, "New year means that everything was new."

In addition, he had begun to clean up the discussion about the relationship between the JonesFamily and the Harrison Family.

It should be done by the new year.

Arya didn't know that Xavier was dealing with it, and she nodded and said. "Okay."

She was also always ready. She put on her clothes and went out with what she might need.

When she went outside, she remembered that it was an inconvenient place to take a taxi. Afterthinking about it, she decided to call Orlando and ask him to pick her up.

Compared to Caspar, she felt closer to Orlando.

They worked together and got along with each other for a longer time.

Caspar and she just wanted what they needed.

So the first person she thought of was Orlando. She was about to call Orlando but Jacob walked upto her. "Are you going out? I'll give you a ride.”

Arya looked up and saw Jacob standing not far away, with a Land Rover parked behind him.Maybe it was because he was the man of Xavier, he didn't have ordinary cars but all off-roadvehicles.

Xavier's cars were all large off-road, Mercedes-Benz G500, Bentley, and his favorite one, theLamborghini Urus, the only one that wasn't an SUV was the Phantom.

But he didn't drive Phanto very often. Maybe men like to collect cars.

Especially business elites.

Thinking that Jacob was Xavier's man, it was normal for him to come here. "It sounds good. Orlandoshould drive here for a long time." Arya thought.

"To the court, thank you.” Arya opened the back door and sat in.

Jacob started the car. He looked at her in the rearview mirror but said nothing.

"What's the matter?” Arya saw his expression and asked.

"Nothing." Originally, Jacob wanted to say that he came here not by coincidence, but Xavierspecifically asked him to pick her up.

Last time in the hospital, after Jacob made that call to Xavier, Xavier had guessed what Arya wasgoing to do.

Therefore, in this case, there were not only Caspar’s efforts, but Xavier also promoted it.

Thinking for a while, Jacob didn't say it. He thought he should leave the merits of his boss to Arya toreplace out.

When they arrived at the court, Caspar was already waiting at the door. He was dressed in a neatblack suit, formal and serious.

With a stack of folders in his hand, he was waiting for her to come.

Arya got out of the car and walked towards him. She then turned around and said to Jacob. "Thankyou."

Jacob nodded but he did not get out of the car. He had something else to do

Caspar explained to Arya, "No matter what the other side says, you have to stay calm. You shouldnot be irritated by them and you can ignore them. We have made preparations, the other side mustalso be fully prepared, but I am confident to win."

This last sentence was more like comforting Arya, giving her confidence.

Arya nodded. "I know."

She was mentally prepared. This was not her first time here.

She would not be as panicked, scared, and helpless as she had been here for the first time.

She was very calm at the moment.

At this moment, another car stopped. Estella, Richard, Harriet as well as their defense lawyer werethere.

Seeing Arya, Estella and Harriet were immediately unhappy.

Harriet, in particular, wanted to go over and strangle Arya to death right now.

If it weren't for her, Xavier wouldn't cancel the engagement so resolutely.

She blamed Arya for everything.

She wanted to kill her.

Thinking of the court summons, Richard was furious and raised his hand and was about to slap Arya."Why didn't you die in the prison?"

When Estella saw that Richard was going to hit Arya, she almost applauded.

Caspar grabbed Richard's hand. "This is the gate of the court. How dare you?"

"She's my daughter. I can do anything I want!" Richard was so angry that he trembled and looked atArya with a fierce look.

Arya's face was cold. She didn't change her expression because of Richard's curse and ruthlessness."No matter what your relationship is, hitting her would be against the law!" Caspar did not give in.When he investigated Marshal, he also investigated the Harrison Family. Thus, he knew their realfaces and didn't want to be polite to them.

The lawyer that the Harrison Family hired to defend Marshal persuaded Richard, "It's not good forthe case to cause trouble here at this time."

Thinking of his son, Richard could only stop.

"Nice to meet you." The defense lawyer Bert reached out to Caspar.

They were all lawyers, so naturally, they knew each other. Though they were opponents when theywere in the court, they were all smiling and shaking hands at this time.

"I've heard a lot of stories about you, Caspar of the Big City Law Firm. You're the most capable oneand never fail one case. Today you are my opponent, it is my misfortune but also my honor." Bert'swas dubious. Although he admitted Caspar's ability and reputation, he was not convinced in hisheart.

He had been in his career for a long time, but his reputation was not as good as the younger manCaspar's. Naturally, he was unpleasant.

Fortunately, Caspar was his opponent this time. As long as he won against Caspar, his reputationwould grow.

No one was willing to take Marshal's case at a glance, because the chances of winning were thin.But after knowing that Caspar sued Marshal, he took the case.

If he lost the case, he would lose everything. But if he won, he would become famous.

He had a 50% chance of winning. He felt that he could give it a shot.

And he had Rufus.

Rufus wouldn't let Xavier go that easily.

So this time, it was not just to defend Marshal, but also to involve the Jones Family.
