Quinn was looking at the photos. They were taken the previous night on Laura’s terrace. However, those photos were cleverly captured to only show her with Harlan, conveniently omitting Laura’s presence.

Among them, a particular photo stood out. It showed Harlan leaning on her shoulder, and she, in turn, held him around his waist.

Quinn’s eyes slightly narrowed. At that time, I was just about to help the heavily intoxicated Harlan into the room.

“See? Quinn has cheated with this toy boy, so she’s the one at fault!” Jacinda arrogantly declared. “Trent is actually pretty decent, willing to give some company shares to Quinn. If you ask me, women like her should be left with nothing!”

“You’re full of it! What are you talking about? Cheating? I was there as well!” Laura retorted.

“Can you stand by what you’re saying right now?” Harlan asked, staring intently at Jacinda.

Jacinda defiantly retorted, “Why not? This photo clearly shows you cheating with Quinn!”

“Slander can be punishable by up to three years in prison,” Harlan said with a cold laugh. “The person who came to pick me up yesterday was my uncle, Mr. Yannick Xiberras. He can vouch that Laura was there as well. Are you suggesting that Mr. Xiberras would also lie?”

Yannick Xiberras was a renowned fop–tier lawyer in Jexburgh.

Jacinda had also learned of the renowned lawyer, Yannick, during her detainment a fe
