Ariel was seething with frustration. He was not only being denied the money, but they were also insisting on
installing surveillance cameras in his home, an idea he was vehemently against. Nicholas, however, was
unyielding. "If you're against the cameras, we can always resort to legal action. Either way, we're resolving this
issue today."
Ariel was livid, his eyes shooting daggers at Nicholas. "What kind of shoddy lawyer are you, suggesting the
installation of cameras to spy on us? Don't you realize that's against the law?"
Nicholas remained unperturbed, "As I've already explained, we won't be watching the footage. It will merely be
uploaded to the cloud to prevent any deletion. We won't have access unless there's an appeal, and only then
would the police examine it. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Ariel was caught off guard, left without a retort.Nicholas had laid it out clearly. Ariel's choices were limited to
either accepting the cameras or facing a court battle.
"Fine, have it your way! Do whatever you want!" Ariel spat out in anger, collapsing onto the couch, exhausted
from the argument.
'What's the point in arguing with a lawyer? What could | possibly gain?' Ariel pondered.
"If you're unwilling to bear the cost, we will cover the installation," Nicholas concluded.
"Do as you please. Just finish it and leave. This whole situation is a damn curse," Ariel grumbled through
clenched teeth.
Nicholas nodded in acknowledgment and then discussed the matter with Quinn, who agreed to fund the
installation.

farewell to Juliet and left the neighborhood in Nicholas's company.
Their next task was to purchase the surveillance system. Quinn glanced at Nicholas with gratitude and typed
"Thank you" on her phone.
Nicholas chuckled, "No need to thank me. I'm glad to have been of assistance. But Quinn, you do realize | charge
by the hour, right?"
Quinn froze, suddenly anxious. She hadn't asked about his fees earlier. Nervously, she typed, "How much?"

Nicholas flashed a grin. "Twenty grand an hour."
Quinn's eyes widened in shock. 'How could his rate be so exorbitant?’ she wondered.
Nicholas glanced at his watch and remarked, "Well, that's five hours. | usually bill by phase, but given the short
duration of your case, let's just go with a flat rate."
Quinn fiddled with her phone, aware that her account was well-stocked, but the money was borrowed from
Abigail and needed to be repaid.
If she failed to pay, Nicholas would likely take legal action. With a firm resolve, she typed quickly, "Sendyour
account details."
Nicholas pulled out his phone and sent the details to Quinn, "We'll need to draft a contract later and sign it once
everything's settled."
