Chapter 244 License Revoked Fury

The plaintiff’s side was shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere.

Tess and her group seemed much more relaxed.

They packed up the files and were about to leave when they were stopped.

“Tess.”

Tess’s steps halted, and her body stiffened slightly.

She turned around. The judge, who had been cold–faced earlier, was standing not far away, her eyes holding some complex emotions.

“Lyra Bell, long time no see.”

She forced a smile, pretending to be casual.

Lyra walked closer, her gaze scanning Tess from head to toe. Seeing that she seemed to be doing well, she breathed a sigh of relief.

“How did you get involved in this case?”

Her tone was familiar, drawing extra glances from Steven and Tommy standing beside Tess.

“A friend.”

Tess smiled warmly.

Lyra nodded. She raised her hand hesitantly for a moment, then placed it on her shoulder. “When are you coming back?”

The sudden question made Tess’s body freeze.

She looked up, meeting Lyra’s concerned eyes, feeling an indescribable mix in her heart.

She and Lyra had known each other for years–one would go on to become a renowned lawyer in Aetheris, the other, the highest–ranking judge in Aetheris court.

Lyra was the one who had seen her moments of glory the most. Their relationship was not close, but they had always maintained a deep mutual understanding.

“Soon.”

Nadine’s eyes lit up, and she practically flew towards him.

Finn was leaning against a limited–edition Maybach car, looking over at the sound.

But the gaze that should have landed on Nadine suddenly shifted, falling on Tess not far away.

He obviously had not expected Tess’s appearance. A flash of surprise passed through his eyes, but then he noticed Steven beside her, and his expression turned cold again.

Nadine also keenly noticed Tess’s presence. The smile on her lips deepened, and she walked up with shyness written all over her face.

“Finn, what are you doing here?” Finn looked down at Nadine, his eyes slightly narrowing, and he also smiled gently and indulgently. “You’re in court. Of course I had to come.”
