After Being Cheated On, I Became My Ex's Uncle's Pampered Sweetheart

The next morning, Jason Vaughn and Lana Chambers arrived at Keystone Law, ready to negotiate with Jonah Spencer.

However, they were stopped by security at the entrance.

Jason Vaughn said belligerently, "Move, move! We’re here to see Jonah Spencer."

’The security guard had never seen anyone come looking for Jonah Spencer with an attitude like this!’

’Doesn’t everyone who comes to see Lawyer Spencer act respectful, like they’re asking for a favor?’

So, the guard said professionally, "You need an appointment to see Lawyer Spencer."

"An appointment?"

Jason Vaughn scoffed. "Call him right now. Tell him we’re Eve Vaughn’s aunt and uncle! If he doesn’t know what’s good for him, we’ll expose their little scandal!"

The guard didn’t know what they were up to, so he had no choice but to call Jonah Spencer’s assistant for instructions.

Soon, he received his orders and told the couple with disdain, "Sorry, Lawyer Spencer says he doesn’t know you and doesn’t have time to see you!"

Jason Vaughn and Lana Chambers grew frantic. Pointing at the guard, Jason said, "Fine, he’s forcing our hand!"

With that, they started making a scene right at the law firm’s entrance.

"Get Jonah Spencer out here!"

Jason Vaughn roared, desperate to draw everyone’s attention. "As a lawyer, Jonah Spencer knowingly broke the law! He molested and kept my niece as his mistress! Everyone, come and be the judge! Let’s see the true face of this so-called respectable lawyer!"

Lana Chambers chimed in, "Exactly! My niece was a perfectly fine college student, and he just lured her away! We have to get justice for our niece!"

One echoing the other, they quickly attracted the attention of many passersby.

Some people even started recording them.

After all, Keystone Law was the most famous law firm in Rivaster, and Jonah Spencer’s name was legendary.

How could the gossip-loving crowd miss out on a scandal like this?

As more and more people gathered, Jason Vaughn and Lana Chambers exchanged a look and ramped up their tirade.

’There’s no way Jonah Spencer can just sit still in his office through this,’ they thought.

’Once he comes out, we can negotiate!’

’If he doesn’t agree to drop the lawsuit, we’ll completely destroy his reputation!’

However, it wasn’t long before two police officers pushed through the crowd.

"Jason Vaughn, Lana Chambers! You’re under arrest for malicious slander!"

This completely caught Jason Vaughn and Lana Chambers off guard.

Jason Vaughn hurriedly said, "Officers, there must be a misunderstanding! It’s that beast in human disguise, Jonah Spencer! He’s keeping my niece as his mistress. We’re here to get justice. If you’re going to arrest anyone, it should be him!"

The officers cuffed them directly. "Alright, we saw the two of you shouting abuse at the entrance of a law firm. If you have anything else to say, you can say it down at the station!"

Lana Chambers was terrified. It was the first time in her life she had ever been handcuffed.

In her panic, she screamed, "You must be in league with Jonah Spencer! Let me go!"

But no one paid her any mind. They were both shoved directly into the police car.

They never imagined it. They had come here today full of confidence, ready to negotiate with Jonah Spencer and get him to give up on helping Eve Vaughn claim the villa.

But in the end, they were taken away by the police without even seeing Jonah Spencer’s face.

...

Eve Vaughn didn’t find out about this until noon.

It was all over Weibo. She had just been scrolling through the web while eating when she saw a photo of two people shouting insults at Keystone Law and recognized them as her aunt and uncle.

She immediately put down her chopsticks, dashed out, and hailed a cab to Keystone Law.

After all, what her aunt and uncle did had already caused immense damage to Jonah Spencer’s reputation.

’Jonah Spencer had already compromised on his legal fees to take my case. How could I let them cause him this much trouble?’

Eve Vaughn truly couldn’t understand what nerve in Jason Vaughn and his wife had snapped for them to spout such utter nonsense.

’Thinking about it now, the anonymous letter sent to the school yesterday was probably their "masterpiece" too.’

At that thought, Eve Vaughn’s resentment toward the two troublemakers grew even stronger.

「Half an hour later.」 The car arrived at the entrance of Keystone Law.

After Eve Vaughn explained her reason for being there, the receptionist told her, "Lawyer Spencer isn’t in. He just stepped out."

So, Eve Vaughn found a seat in the lobby and sat down, wondering how she was going to apologize to Jonah Spencer.

She waited for over an hour. Jonah Spencer never showed up, but Eric Kendall did.

"Eve Vaughn?"

Eric Kendall asked in surprise as he passed by her, "What are you doing here?"

Eve Vaughn didn’t think she had anything to say to Eric Kendall. She said coldly, "I’m looking for Lawyer Spencer."

Eric Kendall plopped down in the seat opposite her, narrowing his eyes. "Don’t tell me... you’re actually involved with Jonah Spencer? Then what about you and Mason... What’s...?"

"Young Mr. Kendall, do you have too much time on your hands?" Thinking about how this man bullied her best friend all day, Eve Vaughn retorted without mercy, "From what I’ve seen, men your age are all busy as hell, without a moment to even speak. It seems you’re the only one who spends all his time on pointless gossip."

A wild, carefree smile played on Eric Kendall’s lips. "They’re busy because they need to make money. My family has more money than we can spend, so I have time. Is that a problem?"

Eve Vaughn couldn’t be bothered to argue with him, so she simply moved to a different chair, farther away from him.

Eric Kendall pouted, took out his phone, and opened the group chat named ’Chicks are Temporary, Bros are Forever’.

He tagged Mason Lawson and Jonah Spencer. "What the hell is going on with you two? Are you really going to make us change the group name to ’Bros are Temporary, Chicks are Forever’ over some girl? Whose woman is Eve Vaughn anyway?! There are so many women in the world, do you two have to fight over the same one?"

After Eric sent the message, he waited for a long time, but no one replied.

He muttered to himself, "A bunch of traitors who’d choose chicks over bros!"

Suddenly, he remembered something and quickly called Hamilton Hale.

Hamilton Hale’s exasperated voice came from the other end. "Bro, why are you calling now? I’m heading into surgery in ten minutes. What is it? Spit it out!"

Eric Kendall asked, "Did you see Weibo? Eve Vaughn’s aunt and uncle were causing a scene at Jonah’s law firm."

"I saw," Hamilton Hale replied, a bit surprised. "Those two troublemakers are Eve Vaughn’s aunt and uncle? That’s not right. Isn’t Eve Vaughn with Mason right now or something?"

Eric Kendall quickly said, "Exactly, that’s what I was wondering! I came looking for Jonah just now, and the receptionist said he’s out. What do you think he’s doing in the middle of the day? You don’t think he went to find Mason and those two got into a fight, do you?"

"How is that possible?"

Hamilton Hale said, speechless, "Those two are both terrifyingly emotionally stable. The idea of them fighting over a woman... you’ve got some imagination! I’m going to the operating room now. Don’t call me again!"

Eric Kendall stared at his own handsome and charming face reflected in the dark screen of his phone and wondered, ’Am I really that annoying?’
