Xavier seemed really worried. He said helplessly, �Dude, I�ll tell you honestly. It�s the new club I opened. A woman died from an alcohol overdose from drinking too much. Now, her family is taking us to court. The situation is very unfavorable for us!�

�I have a good relationship with the judge, so he secretly hinted to me that in this type of cases, our side would usually lose. There was only one example of the defendant winning � it was a case of Zack Rosenwell took on years ago��

Xavier was about to lose it.

He came from a family of politicians. His family had always been strict. His father nagged him every day for not working a proper job.

If his father found out that he actually had the audacity to open an entertainment club and the club had.even caused death, his father would definitely break his legs and confine him forever!

Christopher chimed in, �Try and ask the lawyer to help him, Fan. After all, if the lawyer is someone we know personally, there will be fewer problems.�

Stefan pursed his thin lips and said no more.

Downstairs, Renee�s group was becoming more and more lively. They were now playing a drinking game.

Stefan�s face hardened. He could not sit still anymore.

He picked up a glass of wine and told the dispirited Xavier, �Let�s go.�

The two men went downstairs. Because of their good looks, they attracted a lot of attention.

Unfortunately, Renee�s group was too immersed in their drinking game to notice.

Therefore, the two young masters were� completely ignored!

Xavier was used to being the center of attention everywhere he went and had never experienced such a cold reception before. Moreover, he was feeling mad on Stefan�s behalf, so the words that came out of his mouth was very arrogant. �Look how excited they are over a stupid drinking game. So childish.�

Only then did the group notice them. The atmosphere that had been merry a second before rapidly dropped to a freezing point.

Stefan�s eyes met with Renee�s. An invisible tug-of-war began.

Although neither of them spoke, the others could clearly sense the fireworks that were going off between them. They could tell a silent battle was raging.

The new boss versus the old boss. The lawyers were in a tough spot.

They immediately made the decision to step back and watch the show unfold, lest they get burned by collateral damage.

Renee finally broke the silence and asked, �Wanna play with us?� JrNovels.com
