The Lawyer’s Romance in Law

Chapter 534 He's Already Married?!

Symeon's face showed surprise, followed by laughter. "What are you dreaming about? Give Dulcie to you? Are you even worthy? Why do you think you, a mother who refused to acknowledge her existence, can take care of Dulcie?"

"I didn't know before, but now that I've seen the paternity test results, although I still can't remember, I will slowly accept it. I believe if Dulcie stays with me, I will eventually recall everything." She had never intended to shirk her responsibility; she simply knew nothing.

"No need, I will take care of my daughter. I can provide for her. So, you don't need to worry. You can go find your man and get married. And since that night was just an accident, it doesn't matter." Symeon didn't take that one night seriously; it was only because of the appearance of this little life that he felt responsible.

"Since you have a woman you like, why won't you give Dulcie back to me? In the future, you will marry another woman and continue to have children. Dulcie will have a stepmother! I won't allow it!" Symeon burst into laughter out of anger. "You won't allow it? Who are you to not allow it? Where were you for the past three years? If I hadn't brought Dulcie before you, would you have remembered her?"

Once again, Casey was left speechless. After all, she had indeed been irresponsible. However, she had to fight for Dulcie's custody. She couldn't let her daughter call another woman "Mom." What if that stepmother treated Dulcie poorly? If Symeon had other children in the future, would he still treat Dulcie as well? Human hearts were naturally biased, so favoritism. was inevitable.

Casey bit her lip and turned away. Convincing this man wouldn't be

easy.

Suddenly, she remembered Symeon's conversation with that woman earlier that day.

It seemed that the woman had a family, and there was no sign of her wanting a divorce. Symeon would probably have a hard time pursuing her.

At that, she turned back to Symeon and said, "The woman you like has a family, right? What if I help you win her over? In return, can you give Dulcie back to me? After all,

you will continue to have children with her in the future. You might even prefer the children you have with her. So, let Dulcie stay with me."

Symeon was slightly taken aback by Casey's words, which genuinely surprised him.

He knew it; she really was no benign woman. No wonder she could climb into his bed back then, secretly give birth, and then abandon it only to reclaim the child now. That said, Amanda's husband was the Elias Winters.

He was curious to see what Casey was capable of that could break up Elias and Amanda. He viewed it as pure entertainment because he believed there was no way Casey could capture Elias' heart.

"Well then, go ahead. Her husband is not someone ordinary people can seduce. You're too confident in yourself."

"I don't care if you think I'm confident or not. As long as I succeed, that's all that matters! So, will

you agree or not? If you agree, I will help you win that woman. But the condition is that you give Dulcie back to me." Casey hadn't even realized what she was saying; she was only focused on getting Dulcie back.

Symeon smirked. "Well, I await your little show."

It was clearly an impossible task. No woman could capture Elias' heart except Amanda. Symeon had some knowledge of Elias from their few interactions before. At that time, Elias had shown no interest in women, and it had been puzzling when he suddenly got married and had a child. It seemed like he had found true love.

After saying that, Symeon turned and entered the room to check on Dulcie.

It was only after hearing the door close that Casey realized the absurdity of the words she had just spoken.

Oh my God, this is pure wickedness. I'm about to destroy someone else's family. But what about Dulcie...

Late at night, after Casey returned home, she lay in bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

The thought of herself potentially ruining someone else's family made her feel like an irredeemable villain. However, hearing that Symeon had agreed stirred something within

her.

In reality, any woman who ended up with Symeon should be happy. After all, Symeon appeared to be a talented and mysterious man with a good family background.

She couldn't understand why any woman would reject Symeon.

Thinking about this, Casey felt a pang of sadness in her heart. What was she doing? It was as if she were actively helping her husband pursue another woman, completely shattering her moral compass

Suddenly, her phone rang.

She checked it to find a call from Elias. She had his number saved, although she had never called him before.

She didn't expect him to call her on his own initiative.

Casey had to admit that she had a favorable impression of this man. After all, he had saved her before.

She answered the phone. "Mr. Winters, do you need something from me?"

"Miss Carter, I apologize for disturbing you so late. However, would you have some time. tomorrow to meet? My wife might still be a bit emotional, and I hope the three of us can have a face-to-face conversation to clarify things."

Wife? Elias doesn't have a girlfriend; he's married?! He's actually already married?!

Casey suddenly felt a bit disappointed, realizing that good men were taken early, leaving no room for opportunities. However, due to her involvement in the strained relationship, she felt obliged to clarify things. "Alright, Mr. Winters, I have time tomorrow."

"In that case, I'll have someone pick you up. I apologize once again."

After hanging up the phone, Casey couldn't help but sigh. "I really envy his missus. She's getting so much attention."

If this situation were happening to an ordinary woman, her husband would probably think she was being unreasonable. The disparity in people's destinies was truly immense.

The next day, in the president's office of Winters Enterprise, Amanda had some regrets after arriving. She wasn't sure what to say when facing this Miss Carter in person. "Maybe I shouldn't have come. I don't want to meet her. It's pointless."

Elias held her slender waist and said, "We've already invited her. It would be impolite to send her back halfway. Just consider it as making a new friend. I have a feeling that you and Miss Carter could become friends. Your temperaments are quite sinular."

She had initially wanted to avoid this meeting, but Elias' words made her curious. Last time at the hospital, she had only seen the woman's back and profile, which she found quite attractive. She wondered if the real person was even more beautiful.

Just then, the office phone rang, and the secretary's voice came through. "Mr. Winters, Miss Casey Carter has arrived. She says she has an appointment with you." "Alright, please bring her in."
