came home with the civil complaint. When she was at the door, she adjusted her

Her eyes were red when she entered the Yates residence. She appeared to have been sobbing for quite some time and clearly distressed.

“Lisa, what’s wrong? Oh, my dear, why are you crying?”

Miranda felt extremely anxious, worrying that Yulissa might have been bullied at school.

“Mom, why doesn’t Cas sandra like me? It’s okay if she doesn’t like me, but hating her classmates is going too far. She took legal action against all the students in the class yesterday. What should we do? A lot of my classmates come from influential families. I’m worried they may turn their anger on us. | know Cas sandra doesn’t like me. | know it might be my fault for essentially taking over her life for 18 years, but | was young back then and didn’t understand anything. If | knew it would make her unhappy, | should. have left when you and Dad took her back!”

Yulissa kept crying heartbreakingly.

In Miranda’s eyes, her precious daughter had endured great grievances.

Hearing her, Yulissa’s brothers at home all came over. Witnessing their baby sister int such distress, they all felt a strong urge to protect her and were ready to confront the person responsible for upsetting Yulissa.

“Lisa, what’s wrong? Tell me. | will help you solve it.” Leonardo said softly, walked up to Yulissa and hugged her gently.

“Leo, please help me persuade Cas sandra. She sued not only all the students in our class but also me. Does she really hate me so much? | simply cherish my parents and brothers and don’t want to be torn away from you all. If she can drop the lawsuit, I’m willing to leave. I’m 18 now and capable of standing on my own.”

Yulissa leaned into Leonardo’s shoulder and wept in distress.

“Lisa, please stop crying. It breaks my heart. Can you leave this to me?” Leonardo’s tone was gentle.

He was essentially a cold man, but he was extremely gentle to Yulissa.

“Really? Can you ask Cas sandra to drop the lawsuit? | don’t want all target her.” Yulissa looked as though she was still concerned about Cas sandra.

Hearing her talk like this, Leonardo felt that Cas sandra was ungrateful.

“Don’t worry, Lisa. Leo said he would handle it. Everything will be fine.” Jasper also comforted her.

“Yes, trust Leo. Lisa, stop crying. You won’t look beautiful if you cry too much.” Yohannes joked.

Only then did Yulissa smile through tears, saying sweetly, “Thank you.”

Yulissa passed the civil complaint to Leonardo, who promptly ripped it apart without even bothering to read it.

Seeing this, the butler remembered that he had received an envelope in the morning. But he was too busy to open it and see what was inside.

“Mr. Leonardo Yates, | received an envelope this morning. It seems to be the same as what Ms. Yates brought back,” said the butler, Robert.

“Give it to me.”

Robert retreated and brought the envelope from the mailroom.

Inside the envelope was a lawyer’s letter and a civil complaint.

Leonardo had no interest in the civil complaint. Since he planned to persuade Cas sandra to withdraw her lawsuit, reading it was immaterial.

However, the logo on the lawyer’s letter made him frown.

It wrote [Drieso Perennial Law Group].

Jonathan? Why is Jonathan taking this case? He even drafted all the civil complaints himself, Leonardo mused.

Leonardo comforted Yulissa for a while and then went back to the study.

Yulissa thought, ‘Watch me, Cas sandra. How you can beat me? Dad, Mom, and our brothers will always be mine. | am the true daughter of the Yates family. You are simply nothing.

Leonardo returned to the study and dialed Jonathan’s number. He had previously tried to assign him a case, but Jonathan had shown little interest in taking it.

The phone was soon connected.

“Hello. Who is that?” Jonathan asked.

Chapter 201

“Hello, Mr. Youngblood. This is Leonardo.”

“Who is it?” There was a brief silence at the other end of the line before Jonathan responded. “Oh, Mr. Yates.”

Jonathan asked, “It’s unexpected to hear from you. What brings about this call?”

“I’ve been informed that you’ve taken up a case, Mr. Youngblood. | must apologize. My sister, still young and naive, has managed to cause you unnecessary inconvenience. Could | possibly request that you drop the lawsuit? | assure you, the Yates family will not persist on this matter.” Leonardo spoke in a sophisticated way.

He attributed Cas sandra’s actions to youthful ignorance and claimed the Yates family was inclined to forgive and retract the lawsuit.

“Mr. Yates, is this message from you or Ms. Cas sandra Yates?” Jonathan asked.

“Is there a difference?” Leonardo didn’t understand.

“Of course, it is. If it’s your idea, I’m sorry to say that | can’t comply with your wishes, Mr. Yates. If it’s Ms. Cas sandra Yates’ idea, please ask her to speak for herself.” Jonathan was a smart and experienced man.

It was typical for a wealthy family to make decisions on behalf of its members.

Moreover, Jonathan only needed to serve Cas sandra alone from a professional standpoint. Regardless of the case’s scale, he was prepared to litigate on her behalf.

for the supposed withdrawal of the lawsuit, he wouldn’t comply with the request unless Cas sandra called in person from her telephone number.

“Mr. Youngblood, are you doubting what | said?” A hint of anger crossed Leonardo’s face. He thought Jonathan was quite stubborn.

“It’s not like that, Mr. Yates. Ms. Cas sandra Yates has explicitly stated that unless she personally decides to drop the lawsuits, no one else has the authority to speak on her behalf. If Ms. Ca s sandra Yates wishes to withdraw the complaint, please have her reach out to me directly with her phone number. | have something else to do, so please excuse me. Mr. Yates, good night.” Then, Jonathan hung up the phone on Leonardo.

Leonardo didn’t expect his request to be rejected.

As it turned out, Cas sandra had already prepared for the possibility that they might attempt to withdraw the lawsuit on her behalf. They had truly underestimated her foresight and determination.

thing happened the day after.

It wasn’t until the last day before the court trial that he managed to meet Cas sandra when the latter was told to pick up her review materials from the office.

The moment he saw Cas sandra, Leonardo got angry.

“This insolent girl! How dare she hide? If the school hadn’t called her back, she wouldn’t have shown up. She made me waste several trips in vain, Leonardo thought with hatred.

“Where have you been? You didn’t show up till now,” Leonardo accosted Cas sandra immediately upon their encounter, letting loose a stream of demands. “Hurry up. Call Jonathan right away and tell him you’re dropping the lawsuit. You must apologize to all your classmates and Mr. Huddleston after that.”

He added, “Lisa fell ill because you sued her. Go home and apologize to her immediately!”

Cas sandra looked at Leonardo speechlessly.

Is this really the CEO of Yates Group? Why does he look like an idiot? What nonsense is he speaking here?’ she wondered. Cas sandra ignored him and walked straight to the campus.

Leonardo was completely ignored.

“Cas sandra, what’s wrong with you? | came to see you. You should be grateful instead of putting an air in front of me!” Leonardo was furious.

‘Doesn’t she want to return to the Yates residence and be taken seriously? | can grant her wish!” he thought.

Once Cas sandra withdrew the lawsuit and returned to the Yates residence, Leonardo would send her to a significant place, allowing her to relish the experience of being taken seriously.

“Mr. Yates, have you been lost in your daydreams? Why are you spouting such nonsense. in this location? Do you ever hear what you’re saying?” Cas sandra said.

“Cas sandra, what will it take for you to withdraw the lawsuit?” Leonardo questioned.

If Jonathan hadn’t been insistent on Cas sandra personally withdrawing the lawsuit, Leonardo wouldn’t have bothered to come here.

“You feel overlooked since your return to the Yates family, right? | guarantee that if you

come back and show the same affection towards Lisa as we do, treating her like your own sister, we will treat you well.”

Cas sandra burst out laughing and looked at Leonardo sarcastically.

“Mr. Yates, does the Yates family hold some form of hereditary throne that one is to inherit? Is Yulissa next in line, and thus, everyone must bend over backwards to accommodate her?”
