Chase’s Lawyer Attempts a Manipulation
Chase’s lawyer attempted to twist the narrative, blaming Maren for their lack of communication. His tone dripped with condescension as he suggested that she had unjustly overreacted.
Maren felt irritation bubbling within her, ready to rise at a moment’s notice. “This isn’t about communication, it’s about respect for property,” she countered firmly.
The air surged with tension, and she could feel Ellis’s supportive presence beside her. She knew this was a fight worth having, and she wouldn’t let their accusations derail her.
