When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him
Chapter 1562 Get Out Of The Way
"Alright, I understand." Grover nodded in acknowledgment.
From his perspective as a lawyer, such slight bias was cutirely reasonable and justifiable.
Even if Queenie had given all her wealth to Cecilia, there would have been no issues at all.

After Grover had finished asking Queenie about everything, he picked up his briefcase and stood up. "Mdm. Queenie, I'll start drafting the content now, and 'll come see you in a couple of days." "Alright, thanks for the trouble," Queenie said as she watched him leave.
On his way back to the law firm, Grover was stopped by a car.
He was somewhat perplexed, then he saw someone disembark from the car. It was Cassandra.noveldrama
Cassandra knocked on the car window. "Mr. Herrera, its been a while."
Grover immediately understood her intention.
He couldn't help but chuckle, stepping out of the car. "It's been a while. What brings you here?" he feigned ignorance and asked.
Cassandra chuckled. "What else could it be? I was just curious about what you and my mom talked about today. You spent quite a while chatting in the office, didn't you?"
She had been spoiled since childhood, which resulted in her unusually bold nature.
Grover's smile became somewhat stiff, clearly caught off guard by Cassandra's direct question..
He didn't really beat around the bush either. "Nothing much, just discussing some recent cases at the company."
As Queenie's personal attorney, he was very tactful, knowing what should be spoken and what should be left unsaid.
Cassandra watched him lie and decided to confront him directly. "It's not just about the company issues, is it? It's about the will as well, right? Is my mother planning to give all her assets to my newly found sister?" Grover's face stiffened, his expression becoming increasingly unpleasant.
"Cassandra, it would be best if you ask Mdm. Queenie about this. As her lawyer, there are certain things I must keep confidential."
"Confidential?" Cassandra scoffed. "Mr. Herrera, you said it yourself. You're just her lawyer. As long as you stand by my side, I assure you, once I take charge of the house, you will certainly be well compensated." After listening, Grover's face didn't show the slightest hint of emotion.
"Ms. Evans, if there's nothing else, I'll be on my way. My wife and kids are waiting for me at home for dinner. Could you please excuse me?"
He now addressed her as Ms. Evans instead of Cassandra.

Grover had received a favor from Queenie a long time ago. Being a man who always repaid kindness, how could he betray his benefactor over trivial benefits? Cassandra looked at him, impervious to all persuasion, and her gaze, inevitably turned icy.
"Mr. Herrera, think this through. If you choose to leave now, you're going against me. Don't regret it later."
Grover couldn't be bothered to engage with her any further and got into the car.
"Ms. Evans, could you please step aside? If you won't let me pass, at least allow those behind me to go through."
He pointed toward the vehicle that had just pulled up behind him.
Left without a choice, Cassandra stomped her foot in frustration before reluctantly returning to the car. She then instructed the driver to start the vehicle.
As soon as her car drove off, Grover couldn't wait to drive back home.
On the road, he hesitated for a long time. He didn't want to disrupt the mother-daughter bond between Queenie and Cassandra, so he refrained from telling Queenie.
Cassandra wasn't as nice as Grover. She picked up her phone and instructed her subordinates, "I want you guys to keep a close eye on this old geezer Grover! Once he's done drafting the will, find a way to get your hands on it." She was adamant about not putting herself in harm's way.
"Also, could you prepare some more medicine for me, the slow-acting kind, understand?"
"Yes, Ms. Evans."
