Linny's grandmother, using a cane for support, stepped out of the car with Steven's help.
"They are the plaintiff's attorney and family." A sharp-eyed journalist recognized Linny's grandmother from the funeral, where Shannon was dumped from head to toe in food. The incident had been the talk of the town.

That made Hunter's blood boil.

So the person who took over turned out to be Steven.
"M-Mr. Lovett, what do we do now?" Hunter's assistant, unaware of their relationship, was taken aback.
"Hmph! They are just fighting a hopeless battle." Hunter gritted his teeth. “So what if he was the top student at Savrow Law School and could practice law? He's been a lapdog for the Thompsons for many years and has never put his bar certification into practice. He's no competition."

The journalists were even more annoyed with Hunter.
"Contracting a killer? How can you say that?"
