Chapter 937: Chapter 931: Lawyer Brother 3

His voice was cold as hell’s frost, carrying a powerful aura.

Everyone looked up and saw Aiden Shaw dressed in a starlit suit.

His presence was overwhelmingly strong, and his dark brown eyes were filled with a chill.

As he strode closer, he said meaningfully, "Mr. Jules, long time no see."

James Jules heard his voice, his face changed, and for a moment, he didn’t know what to say. He swallowed nervously, still somewhat afraid of the famous Fourth Lord Shaw.

Naomi Kirby’s eyes softened slightly, and she exhaled a breath of relief.

Tiana Thorne’s heart skipped a beat; her fourth brother had arrived, and not just him, her sixth brother was here too.

Isaac Ford’s eagle-like eyes scanned the bodyguards who intended to harm Naomi, as if saying, "Try touching her."

The bodyguards naturally recognized Isaac Ford; back in the day, he was a big shot in the bodyguard world, and no one could beat him.

In the face of such a dangerous demeanor, they withdrew their hands and didn’t dare return to their employer’s side, just standing there, making the atmosphere very heavy.

Tiana Thorne smiled, "Fourth brother, sixth brother."

Besides that, she also noticed a man in a white suit beside the two, with jet-black, shiny, slightly tousled hair, a handsome style neither too long nor too short.

He had a pair of fox-like eyes somewhat similar to hers, but the difference was, his fox eyes had no hint of allure, only an unassailable icy severity.

A face similar to Eddie Pace, full of heroic spirit and immense presence.

A pair of black-framed glasses added a touch of elegance to him.

This man was incredibly handsome.

Moreover, his face looked very familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before.

Where exactly had she seen it?

By this time, the three had approached, standing in front of her.

Aiden Shaw extended his hand in a protective gesture, pulling her into his embrace and whispered, "You mentioned over the phone there might be a lawsuit, so I brought your eighth brother, Theo Ford."

Eighth brother???

Tiana Thorne looked at Theo Ford, suddenly too excited to say a word.

This unexpected recognition of another brother left her no buffer time, and the eighth brother appeared right before her.

Theo Ford...

Theo Ford...

She silently repeated his name, suddenly recalling what he said in the family group chat last time.

"There’s flooding where I am, and the roads are submerged, so I’ve joined a volunteer rescue team and can’t come back for now. Don’t let anyone take advantage while I’m away to steal my sister," he said.

The group was in an uproar that time, as if it happened just yesterday.

Now, the eighth brother stood right in front of her.

May Sloane and Naomi Kirby showed identical expressions of shock, looking at him in disbelief.

May Sloane took a deep breath, recalling what Fourth Lord Shaw had just said to Tiana, and finally understood, "Eighth Lord Ford, the famous undefeated lawyer, Theo Ford..."

Naomi Kirby was also very surprised, astonished that besides the previously known Vincent Ford, Theo Ford was also a Ford family member.

"Lawyer brother..."

Tiana Thorne murmured, then suddenly realized, "No wonder you seemed so familiar, I remember seeing you in a magazine before."

After saying this, she felt a small thrill inside, "So, you are my eighth brother."

Theo Ford reached out his hand to her, "Appearing suddenly without your permission, please forgive me, my little sixteenth sister."

Oh my.

The tone sounded very formal but oddly affectionate.

Tiana Thorne had no resistance to such a brother, placing her small hand in his palm, clasping hands, "Brother Theo, I’ve heard your name for a long time."

She didn’t call him Eighth brother because it reminded her of pugs and hornbills; instead, calling him Brother Theo, suddenly felt very endearing.

James Jules’s face, initially trying to maintain a tough front, showed a dramatic change.

In the business world, every capitalist needs a very powerful lawyer to solve all dangerous situations for the company.

Theo Ford, in the eyes of capitalists, is an incredibly intimidating figure.

The cases he handled never ended in failure, even the one he didn’t win wasn’t a loss; opponents withdrew the lawsuit seeing no way to win, or settled privately.

Thus, his success rate was nearly one hundred percent.

Such a lawyer in the business world is a legendary figure whom no one can afford to offend.

Now, this top-notch lawyer was standing right in front of them as Tiana Thorne’s brother, and he would undoubtedly become Naomi Kirby’s personal lawyer to fight this case against them.

"Miss Kirby’s information has been shown to me by my fourth brother. It meets the conditions for adopting a minor. If the evidence of the Jules family’s abuse of Keira Jules is conclusive, you have no chance of winning this case," he said firmly.

Their hearts already filled with guilt, such words inevitably struck a significant fear into the hearts of the Jules father and son.

Suddenly, they hesitated whether to give up the guardianship of Keira Jules.

However, at this moment, there was no turning back. He wasn’t completely legally ignorant.

He knew well that admitting to the lawyer that he had abused Keira Jules would entail legal responsibility, at worst leading to fines, relinquishing guardianship, or even imprisonment.

So, he couldn’t admit this; the case needed to be won.

"Dad..."

He interrupted his son’s words.

"I said, I never hurt Keira. Hearing Miss Tiana say Keira has injuries, I will certainly find the culprit soon and get justice for Keira. Thank you for caring so much, but I’ll take charge of looking after her now," he said, again sending a dismissive order.

Tiana Thorne knew that at this moment, James Jules was merely struggling to find the only possible way to win the case, which was to keep intimidating Keira.

She was about to speak up, refusing to leave.

Astute Theo Ford saw through James Jules’s intentions at once.

He quickly said in a highly formal tone, "Now, Keira Jules is my primary client, followed by Naomi as my secondary client. I have the reason and responsibility to protect my young client before the trial opens."

This is legally permissible; no one can deny a person, even a seven-year-old child, the right to hire a lawyer for litigation.

In this move, he cut off James Jules’s retreat.

Connor Jules also understood, realizing they had no choice but to continue the legal fight, stated calmly, "Keira has never liked interacting with strangers. At this time, your presence around her isn’t protection, rather, it’s harm."

At these words, Theo Ford didn’t retreat but advanced, asserting clearly, "If my client wakes and personally asks me to leave, I will do so voluntarily."

Everything must wait until Keira wakes up to say more.

Just then, Keira woke up.
