Chapter 194: I Don\'t Have A Price

"Good morning. I\'m Gilbert\'s uncle, Frank." The man introduced himself with a smile and he added, "Were you here to visit Gale?"

He also extended his hand. Liam accepted it and kept an expressionless face as he replied, "yes."

"Would you mind accompanying me for a cup of coffee?" Frank asked him.

"Aren\'t you here to visit Gale? Why are you wasting your time on me?" Liam countered.

Frank scratched his head and said, "yeah, but I can visit her later if you accept my humble offer. I would also like to talk to you about an important matter regarding Gilbert\'s case."

Liam\'s eyebrows flinched, but he kept a blank face. He looked at his wristwatch and said, "I can only spare thirty minutes. Would that be okay?"

"Yes, I won\'t take long. Let\'s get some coffee there." Frank pointed towards the nearest cafe and started to walk.

"What would you like to drink?" Frank asked with a smile. Liam felt as if gushes of hatred were coming out from his body simply by sitting with him, but he had to bear with all that as what he would say could be something that might help him in winning the case so he kept on with his act.

"Cappuccino." He casually said. Who would have thought that behind those smiles would be a murderer, a cold-blooded murderer!

"Now tell me Mr. Frank, what is it that you want to say to me?" Liam began the conversation with a serious face.

"Do you believe Gale is innocent?" Asked Frank with no formalities.

Liam had a scornful laugh and mumbled, "I wouldn\'t defend her if I didn\'t. Mr. Ming, please don\'t ask me the obvious."

"Yeah right, even me too, at first I thought that she was set up by someone. But all evidence pointed at her… I could not believe it as well. But Gale knew that Gilbert is leaving her everything in his last will and testament."

"Time\'s up, Mr. Frank. I have to go now…"

Liam stood up and walked past him, but he felt a hand tugging his wrist.

"How much…?" Liam heard him ask.

\'Checkmate…\' Liam silently grunted.

He looked at Frank with a poker face and said, "I\'m sorry?"

Frank looked around before asking, "How much do you want to drop Gale\'s case. She must remain in prison…"

"Hmm, did you do any research on me Mr. Frank before you dared ask me that? I\'m actually impressed that you asked me that…"

Frank frowned, not understanding the meaning of his words. He thought that he had researched enough about him and found out how good an Attorney Liam Sy was when it came to defending his clients, he practically never lost any case.

He was taking a risk in trying to offer him money, but if caught and threatened by Liam then he could always deny that he tried to bribe Liam or even made any kind of offer to him to quit Gale\'s case. But he should at least try his best to make him back off.

Liam\'s reputation was that of an invincible king among lawyers, and if he continued to defend Gale, then no one could defeat him. Frank saw his future in shambles when he thought of that, and he knew that it was way too important to convince him to drop Gale\'s case at any cost. And as he thought, everyone had a price, some people were cheap and others come at a hefty price.

"Name your price and just drop her case…" Frank desperately mumbled again.

"I believe you have some deep misunderstanding Mr. Frank. First thing is that I am not on sale, and second and most important thing is that I\'m not doing this for money. I just want justice to be served and that is my only motive.

If Gale is the culprit, she will not be spared, but if I find out, it is someone else… I hope you know what I mean. And… do not forget, the best things in the world never come with a price tag. See you in the courtroom during the next date, Mr. Frank." Liam answered with a stern face before abruptly removing Frank\'s hand from his wrist.

Frank cursed as he watched Liam leave. He was too frustrated by the way Liam responded and fear started to grip his heart. If he was right, Liam was probably aware about who the real culprit was.

"Fu*k!!! Fu*ck!!!" He grunted as he deliberately picked up his mobile phone to make a call while he walked back to his car.

"We will have to do something about that lawyer!!! I told you that person is not someone who could easily be bought with money!" He hissed as soon as he was inside the car. He was already trembling with panic.

His eyes rounded as he heard a chuckle from the other line.

"At least you tried. You see there\'s nothing money can\'t do nowadays so there\'s a possibility he\'s not the same as you. I guess he\'s different from you." The man on the other line mocked, followed by a mad laugh.

Frank\'s face reddened as he barked, "Do you think this is a time to joke around, huh?!"

"Hmm right, it\'s not! But it\'s funny how you sound so tense."

"Who wouldn\'t be? I don\'t want to go to prison after going to such extremes now! Everything was your idea, and you promised me you will do things flawlessly!"

"Relax… I will take care of that lawyer so don\'t panic. Just focus on how you will get the rest of the money and all the property of your nephew once his wife rots in jail." The man in his sixties stated before ending the call.

He looked at one of his men and instructed, "where\'s the profile of that lawyer who handled the case of Gilbert."

He did not give much attention to it a while ago since he had been busy handling some matters of his own. He met Frank at one of his casinos, and that man was a dope gambler. He was amused by him so he approached him and offered him loans after checking out his connection with Gilbert Ming, the owner and CEO of Ming group.

He wanted one of Gilbert\'s towers but was declined, and Gilbert had rejected his offer. So when he found out about Frank\'s connection with Gilbert, he instigated him and made him believe that he could have Gilbert\'s money by removing him from the way and then he could sustain his gambling all he wanted taking no loan and depending on anyone at all.

"Sir…" his right-hand man Dalgon handed him the tablet and Yun read Liam\'s profile. His forehead creased…

"Make sure we won\'t get dragged down with Frank…" he mumbled. Liam Sy… He smirked and added, "I may have some use of Liam in the future."

Dalgon understood. The boss was going to abandon Frank.
