They were still young but were already rotten.
Ashley took the file back. "Yes, the case is about arguing self-defense. However, the opposing lawyer claims that both parties were minors and were just fooling around. But the situation didn't justify the use of deadly force. So, it's excessive self-defense and not a case of complete innocence.
Elias rested his chin on her shoulder. "What about the girl? Isn't she a witness?" "She claims she was hiding and didn't see anything, but I suspect she's afraid of retribution.” Elias sighed. "Pour M Marco. He's really out of luck." Ashley replied calmly, "She's just a fifteen-year-old girl. Considering what happened, she's probably terrified. Don't be too hard on the victim. She's innocent too." "Well, then I'll be hard on the perpetrator. Theo's father really had the nerve to cause trouble in your firm. I'll find someone to beat him up." Ashley shrugged. The puppy's head was so heavy. She patted her lower back, and Elias noticed and helped her. She added, "Don't make it harder for me. This case ended up on my desk because it was difficult to handle.

Ellas glanced at the time, and it was already eleven at night. "Are you done then?" Ashley shook her head. "The trial is in two days. I need to review the case further." Knowing she would be busy for at least another two hours, Elias stopped playing the considerate husband and lifted her, "You've worked all night. It's tyou get ssleep," Ashley, who disliked being managed and having her plans interrupted, grabbed his pajama and struggled to break free. "Elias! Putdown!"
Elias carried her to the bed and gently laid her down. Placing his hands on either side of her head, he leaned forward and and said, "You stayed up late last night, and you want to stay up again tonight. Your body can't take it." His baggy pajamas exposed his well-defined abs, which caught Ashley's eye. She looked away. "I'm aware of my limits."
"I'm more aware of that than you are," Ellas sald, pulling the blanket over om her. s'ah the Eindelwebsite on Google to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. Ashley frowned. "I'm not sleepy yet. I want to review the file a bit more.
"You're not sleepy, huh? Then, you should have said something earlier." Elias leaned closer to her. His brown eyes reflected her face with a predatory glint. It was as if he was a docile dog who had turned into a prowling wolf. "I can help you sleep." Ashley was distracted by his face, and she instinctively asked, "How can you helpget to sleep?" She regretted it as soon as she asked. Sure enough, Elias, who had been looking for an opportunity to kiss her, pressed his lips to hers, After all, what could be more effective at inducing sleep than a bit of Rental Om kung This Vampire Won't Give Up!
