First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 94

Chapter 94: Chapter 94: Court Summons—Hearing at Ten O’Clock

"How did you know?" Caleb Lockwood retorted.

"I just guessed... Your sister-in-law has been back for quite some time, shouldn’t you and Serena have gotten divorced by now?"

Patrick Rhodes asked while carefully observing Caleb Lockwood’s reaction.

Back when Claire Shaw first returned to the country, Patrick Rhodes felt Caleb Lockwood should divorce Serena.

But Caleb Lockwood couldn’t bear to part with Serena, who was like a nanny, so the divorce was delayed until now.

While being observed by Patrick Rhodes, Caleb Lockwood was also subtly observing Patrick Rhodes.

This was the first time since he’d known Patrick Rhodes for so long that he’d seen such a fervent and hopeful look in his eyes.

"Do you really want me to divorce Serena?"

"Of course."

Patrick Rhodes responded without hesitation, noticing a cold gleam in Caleb Lockwood’s eyes.

"It’s just because I’m thinking about your sister-in-law. She’s been with you for so long, without any title or position..."

Caleb Lockwood remained silent.

"Your sister-in-law has actually cried secretly to me several times, saying she doesn’t want to keep being like a mistress..."

"Mm."

"So this time... you are truly planning to divorce Serena, right?"

"Yes."

Caleb Lockwood responded, hearing Patrick Rhodes whispering, "That’s great."

The storm in his eyes came swiftly and left quickly, as Caleb Lockwood calmly curved his lips into a smile, a smile full of deeper meaning.

Serena has taken leave.

The studio is temporarily managed by Sharon Sanders, and over three days, she visited seven detective agencies.

This time, Serena intends to investigate not Caleb Lockwood, but Felix Shepherd.

The only lawyer she could think of who might help her win the divorce lawsuit is Felix Shepherd.

According to the current divorce agreement Caleb Lockwood provided, her repeated requests for divorce had caused The Lockwood Group various losses.

She thought it might be difficult to leave Caleb without paying a cent.

She also realized that this was just Caleb Lockwood’s way of making things difficult for her, trying to force her to give up.

Serena was willing to pay up, as long as she could divorce Caleb smoothly.

But three hundred billion is absolutely impossible; she’s not a fool.

The most crucial aspect of a divorce lawsuit is to find a good lawyer, Serena detests Felix Shepherd but acknowledges his credentials.

Just as Serena was about to step into the eighth detective agency, her phone rang.

The caller ID showed a familiar number, but she wasn’t inclined to answer.

The ringtone went on for quite some time before Serena finally pressed the answer key.

"Hello?"

"Ah... Serena..."

The person on the other end corrected himself quickly, avoiding unnecessary conversation.

"Why did you suddenly decide to call me?" Serena asked directly.

"Are you investigating a lawyer named Felix Shepherd?"

Serena raised her eyelids slightly.

Seeing her silent acknowledgment, the man on the phone explained:

"I discovered it by accident, not deliberately spying on your privacy."

"And then?"

"If you want to investigate him for something, I can help."

Though Serena didn’t want to trouble him, she had actually relied on him for last time’s bed photo incident.

After a moment’s silence, Serena replied with two words:

"Evidence."

"Understood, leave it to me."

As evening fell, the sun set.

After parking his car, Felix Shepherd passed by the playground in the community and casually spotted Serena among a group of playful children.

Serena was handing a bubble machine to a little girl.

Felix Shepherd walked over, facing Serena directly.

"I don’t believe you’re here by chance, so are you here to compensate for medical expenses?" Felix Shepherd pointed to his face, where the marks could still be seen.
