In the solemn and dignified courtroom, Marie sat in the plaintiff’s attorney seat. She was dressed in a well–tailored dark gray suit, with a serious and focused expression on her face. Her clear and bright eyes seemed to be able to see into people’s hearts.
As Marie looked directly at the opposing lawyer, her eyes conveyed an undeniable determination and sharpness.
When it was Marie’s turn to speak, her voice was clear and powerful, her speech was logically sound, and her thoughts were well–organized. ts were well–organized.
Marie, like a skilled chess player,, led her opponent step by step into the traps she had set. During the process of the court debate, Marie demonstrated extraordinary adaptability.
Faced with the sudden questioning and rebuttal from the opposing lawyer, she remained calm and composed, always able to quickly find loopholes and counterattack with sharp words, catching the other party off guard.
Her speaking speed varied between fast and slow, with intonation rising and falling, perfectly controlling the rhythm of the trial, allowing the audience to be fully immersed in her arguments. In this war without gunpowder, Marie emerged victorious.
After the trial, outside the courtroom.
Marie, Lennon, and Bryce walked side by side out of the courthouse.
“Mr: Stark, the verdict should take a few days to come out,” Marie said to Lennon.
“Well, I believe the outcome was in our favor,” Lennon’s voice was cold and clear. When he turned his head to look at Marie, the admiration and approval in his eyes were undisguised. “Marie, you performed very well just now.”
Marie blinked her eyes and smiled, saying, “Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Stark.”
“Marie, you were really amazing just now,” Bryce said with a smile, “You showed me the charm of an elite female lawyer.”
“Thank you.”
Compared to the playful wink and tone of gratitude Marie had just expressed to Lennon, her thank you to Bryce lacked the playful gesture and had a slightly cold tone. Bryce noticed this and the light in his eyes dimmed.
