NovelEnglishChapter 69 Fall for Him? No Way.
He passed a folder to her. “This is the latest information about the case. | didn't give you complete information last time, but I've already asked someone to rearrange everything.” She took it from him and had a look at them. Sure enough, there were some differences, but it would not affect the general flow of things. In fact, there were two additional points that were in her favor.

He arched his eyebrows at her, but he smiled upon seeing her long eyelashes flutter slightly. “Thanks in advance, Liz." Before this, he addressed her as ‘Iris’, but he completely changed it now.
Even though she did not like him calling her by her nickname, she did not comment on it.
“Have you made all the arrangements? When will the court case start?” She raised her gaze.
This time, he replied without any delay, “Five days later.” Then, his eyes narrowed. “Gareth is really a strong opponent.” “Why do you say so, Mr. Darcey?” She looked at him with an arched eyebrow.
After the time they spent together, he did not seem a cowardly man to her.

Unexpectedly, even after that, he managed to seal the deal with the other party.” “Ace Group?” Elisa's pupils constricted slightly.
“Yeah.” She frowned and snorted sarcastically. “How impressive of him.” Will curled his thin lips slightly and looked at her lovingly. “Since that has already been decided, I'm not going to force anything, but I hope you can win the court case for me as a chance to one up him.” She lifted her eyebrows. “Don’t worry about it.” Seeing her confidence and nonchalance, he smiled. “I believe in you.” In the past, he might have some doubts, but this time he was willing to place complete trust in her.
At this point, he did not care if he won or lost the court case that cost ten billion. If he lost, his good reputation might be tarnished, but if he could win over her heart by losing, he was willing to do so.
They chatted for a while before leaving, and he sent her back to the law firm. When the other lawyers saw this, they could not stop discussing the matter among themselves. Jennifer, especially, was sarcastic about it, but the main reason for that was because she cared about Albert's attitude toward Elisa.
Upon returning to the office, Charli arched her eyebrows at Elisa. “Had a date with your lover?” Elisa's lips twitched slightly as she passed the document over to her. “Nonsense.” Charli looked at the document in confusion. “What's this?" “You'll see once you open it." She opened it obediently, and her eyes lit up upon seeing what it was. “We have a greater chance of winning.” Elisa nodded without any elaboration, but Charli could not stop looking at her. “Liz.” She looked at the latter questioningly.
“You are clearly closer with Will now, and he keeps flirting with you. Would you... give in to his charms one day?” “Why would I?” Elisa snorted out laughing.
Charli frowned at her slightly. “Why wouldn't you? Even though he’s a playboy, you can't deny that he is an excellent choice. He's on par with Gareth, and he would love you more than him. Are you so sure that you won't fall for him one day?” Elisa shook her head exasperatedly. “Charli, my heart is dead now; | won't fall for anyone. On top of that, I'm a divorced woman, and I'm not exactly young anymore. Why would he marry me?”
