Chapter 41 Instinctive Resistance
Chapter 41 Instinctive Resistance
Ruby ignored Levi, and her eyes roamed around inside the cafe before she found the person she was
looking for.
She lifted her foot and walked over.
Levi picked up his coffee, but his eyes didn't leave Ruby, watching her walk to a seat in the corner and
sit down, from his position he could faintly see that there was also a man sitting opposite, in a suit.
"No way, Levi, I think your fiancée must have a crush on you, how come she goes wherever you go?"
Jared saw Ruby come in at a glance, and seeing that she had gone elsewhere as if nothing had
happened, without even greeting her, he just assumed that Ruby was deliberately trying to catch Levi.
He twisted his head to look at Ruby’s position and spoke with an exaggerated expression to Levi.
Levi swept a cool glance at him, suddenly feeling that this person was too noisy.

"Lawyer Bennett." Ruby sat down in her place and looked at the man in front of her.
The man looked in his early thirties, wearing a purely handmade custom-made suit. With a pair of gold-
rimmed glasses on his face, he gave off a gentle feeling.
"I can answer the questions you asked before. For this lawsuit, you have no chance of winning."
Lawyer Bennett raised his hand and pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, his gaze only
paused on Ruby's overly pretty face before withdrawing.
"What if I get evidence in my hands that they are plotting to kill me? Is there still a chance?"
Ruby picked up the coffee in front of her unhurriedly and took a sip.
Black coffee was bitter in the mouth, a taste she hated.
"If there's evidence, you shouldn't have come to me to give you a lawsuit, you should have gone to the
police." Lawyer Bennett pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled.
"I've always heard that Lawyer Bennett of Linchen Law Firm has never lost a single battle, I originally
thought you are a person of some ability, but to my surprise, it's nothing more than that. Excuse me,
since you can't do anything about it, then I'll have to hire someone else."
Ruby put down the coffee in her hand and stood up directly to prepare to leave.
She wouldn't have even bothered to find a lawyer if her grandmother hadn't made sure to take back
everything of the Grant family in this way.
It's just that Nellie died tragically at first and carried a stigma when she was dying, so her grandmother
wanted to seek justice for her, so Ruby found Lawyer Bennett as she wanted.
Unfortunately, Lawyer Bennett had let her down.
This was the top lawyer in H Country, and Ruby felt that the name was overstated.
"You don't need to provoke me. Miss Harold, you should know that things have passed for so many
years, you have no evidence in your hand. You want me to fight this lawsuit for you with empty words,
and you have to win, do you think it's possible?" Lawyer Bennett watched Ruby get up before he spoke
unhurriedly.
He had no intention to ask Ruby to stay, and he would come to see Ruby today just for the sake of his
friend.
Ruby didn't deserve to have him come to this meeting at all.
Ruby just smiled and turned around to leave.
Lawyer Bennett continued to sit down and drink his coffee, lounging, seemingly unaffected by the
situation.
Not far from Lawyer Bennett, Jared sneakily finished eavesdropping on the conversation between the
two men, and holding the menu to shield his face, he slipped back to sit in front of Levi.
Levi glanced at him faintly, the first time he knew Jared was actually so gossipy.
"I didn't expect it to be Lawyer Bennett from Lin Chen Law Firm, your fiancée sought a lawsuit, but she
was rejected, how tragic."
Jared shook his head and took a large gulp of lemonade from the table before talking to Levi about the
gossip he had just heard.
Levi didn't even bother to look at him, and drank his own coffee to read the stock market situation on
top of his phone.
"What exactly did the Harold family do to her! I heard that she was kicked out of the Harold family five
years ago and sent to F Country. Back then, the Harold family wasn't a small family in Sea City, right?
Didn't a news come out about something that big?"
Jared was still chattering.
Levi, who hadn't been paying any attention to him, finally reacted and looked up from his phone screen,
giving a glance on him, "Five years ago, Ruby got into the bed of a fifty-something-year-old man and
was caught red-handed at the hotel, and Spencer felt ashamed and threw her out."
"Oh my God? Then he still dares to let her marry you? And your family has no problem with it?"
Jared didn't control his volume and shouted.
Noticing that someone's eyes were cast over, he only hurriedly covered his mouth and stared at Levi
with glazed eyes.
"Do you think that woman would be willing to watch me marry a rich girl and grow in strength?" Levi
laughed coldly, his tone unspeakably mocking.
Jared touched his nose sarcastically, and almost forgot about that.
Giving a glance at Levi expression, he found that Levi has no reaction, only to be relieved, but did not
dare to continue gossip.

The two men were halfway through their coffee before the one they had to wait for arrived late.
Amelia was still wearing a white dress, long black hair draped over her shoulders, her features were
delicate. At this time her face was covered with a gentle sweet smile, many people fixed their eyes on
her.
Jared glanced at Levi, knowing it was time for him to disappear, so he made a random excuse, and
slipped away.
Amelia glanced at the direction Jared had left before sitting down across from Levi: "Been waiting for
me long?"
"No, we just got here a while ago." Levi turned off his phone screen and sat up straight, looking at the
girl in front of him.
Amelia has impeccable looks, gentle character, good origin, and there is still a five-year old tie between
the two, but five years have passed, Levi has never been in that kind of mood towards her, and there is
even an instinctive feeling of rejection every time he sees her.
"Is that so?" Amelia was smart enough not to break it up, and she felt warm at that.
Many women out there can only dream of seeing such an excellent, but she can have him.
After suppressing the excitement in her heart, Amelia opened her mouth: "Right, my grandfather told
me that there is an interview at his institute in three days, and asked me to go there to try. Do you have
time that day? Can you go with me?"
"Institute?" Levi raised his eyebrows slightly. Dr. Moore's institute rarely would recruit people from the
outside world, now Teddie was in it for treatment. He didn’t know the specific situation, but Jared have
read the data sent in the past few days and said that he was recovering well.
"Isn't his institute not hiring from the public?" Levi asked in a seemingly casual manner.
"Yes, but a researcher at their institute was fired a while ago, and now there is an extra vacancy.
Grandpa has an internal recommendation slot, so he asked me to try." Amelia talked about this with a
proud look on her face.
"I'll go with you." Levi thought about it and came to a decision.
At this, Amelia’s smile grew brighter, she couldn't hold back, hugging Levi’s arm, the softness of her
chest clinging to his arm, her voice delicate and moving, "Then I'll wait for you to pick me up and go
over together."
Levi's face changed imperceptibly, and that feeling of resistance and revulsion came up again
silently.
