Chapter 9: The Coquettish Lawyer

When Serena woke up, she found the RV parked at a campground in Yellowstone.

There are two reclining chairs under the awning on one side of the car, and Jamie is lying on one of them, leisurely drinking coffee.

At night, the temperature at camp is usually only a few degrees.

Serena got out of the car with a blanket on purpose, and after drinking the steaming cup of coffee handed by Jamie, her body felt a little warm.

Once seated, she asked where Beth was.

Knowing that Beth had been taken back to the ranch by Rip ahead of time, Serena was suddenly a little curious.

"Does Rip know Ryan is his and Beth's child?"

"I don't know yet."

Jamie took a sip of his coffee and continued:

"But I think Rip should have sensed some clues, but he just couldn't ask someone who knew the truth to verify it."

With Beth's strong character, he would definitely not tell Rip.

Yes, we have one child.

Serena nodded, not asking any more.

After all, this is a private matter for the Dutton family.

Just as the two were about to start their dinner, a Suzuki Esteem sedan sped past the RV parking area.

Suddenly, a sudden brake stopped.

Then the car reversed again.

The driver was a white man in his thirties, who glanced at the number plate of his RV and made sure he was in the right place.

New York State license plates are easily recognizable, the color is the same color as the iconic yellow taxi on the streets of New York, the separator between the blue numbers and letters on the top is the outline of New York State, and the bottom of the license plate "Empire State" is the nickname "Empire State" for New York State.

At the same time, Jamie, who was about to fry the steak over a fire, also read the other party's license plate clearly.

The red letter on a yellow background, the separator between numbers and letters is an Aztec symbol of the sun, and the bottom of the license plate also reads "Land of Enchantment."

This is a car from New Mexico.

The white man in the driver's seat looked in the rearview mirror and straightened his outfit.

Although he tried to pretend to be very calm, the slightly trembling hand when he straightened his tie betrayed the tension in his heart.

Success or failure in this move, fight!

Taking a deep breath, the man pushed the door open, squeezed a big smile on his face, and walked over to Jamie and Serena.

"Is that Mr. Jamie Dutton, please? I'mβ€”"

"James McGill, my father's crappy lawyer from New Mexico, is currently working toward his admission to practice law in Montana."

Jamie tossed two sticks of wood into the campfire provided by the camp and turned to look at the man who was overwhelmed by his words.

"Is there anything else you'd like to add?"

The man reacted quickly, and immediately replied:

"The name James is so formal that people who know me better prefer to call me Jimmy."

"Jimmy?"

Jamie took a sip of his coffee, and continued despite Jimmy's embarrassed appearance on the other side:

"I heard that you had been in prison for fraud before, and it was your lawyer brother who saved you, so you vowed to be a righteous and respected barrister like your brother."

Jimmy stared blankly at Jamie, who knew him well, and silently added in his heart.

Go to the special justice!

He just wants to be a respected barrister who is begged by his clients every day to help with lawsuits, and to slap the faces of those who once looked down on him and laughed at him!

Well, the latter one can be removed.

Because the Jamie in front of him also laughed at him just now, and if he wants to succeed and get ahead, the Jamie in front of him is very crucial.

After all, not everyone can become the hottest best-selling fiction writer in the United States at the age of seventeen, with fame and fortune and a bright future.

What's more, the other party also has a fierce father, who sits on the largest ranch in the United States, produces the world's best beef and racehorses, and is very rich.

Jamie sat down in the recliner and asked Jimmy curiously what he was doing here.

"Although I am admitted to practice law in Montana, I am not needed on the ranch for the time being, and Ms. Perry takes care of the legal affairs of the ranch in an orderly manner."

She even climbed into your dad's bed!

Jimmy couldn't help but complain in his heart.

When he came to Yellowstone Ranch from New Mexico with great joy, he had no idea that he would have to compete with the rancher's mistress for the position of legal counsel.

What a fart?

Jamie put down the coffee cup in his hand.

"You're talking about Lynnell Perry?"

Jimmy suddenly realizes that he has said something he shouldn't have said, but at this point it is too late to regret it, and he can only try to make amends.

"Ms. Perry is very professional and I learned a lot from herβ€”"

"Tricks to please men?"

Jamie interrupted again, giving Jimmy a meaningful look.

I didn't expect you, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, to have a habit of welcoming men!

Jimmy's eyes widened.

Damn, Jamie actually knew about John's relationship with Perry.

Now, his biggest chip to curry favor with Jamie is gone.

Of course, there was no one who was most surprised than Serena.

In the past, Beth had a minor child, and then John got involved with the female lawyer on the ranch.

The relationship between the Dutton family is really messy enough.

On top of that, Jamie doesn't seem to care about it.

"Lynnell Perry hasn't been on the ranch for a long time, and if you're just coming to me to discuss this woman, then you can go."

Jimmy was stunned.

It didn't take long for him to understand that Jamie was already plotting to get Lynnell Perry out of John's side.

After all, no child wants to have one more stepmother when they grow up.

In this way, Jimmy will be able to take over the other party's position.

As the Emperor of Montana, the Dutton family does not currently have major legal disputes with the outside world.

The daily work of the ranch legal counsel is to deal with the drafting of various transaction contracts.

The work is simple and easy, and the oil and water are abundant.

However, Jimmy misunderstood what Jamie meant.

Lynnell Perry was the woman who would later become governor.

And the gold owner behind her is John Dutton.

These things are still "spoilers" from Jamie to John.

Obviously, while the Yellowstone Ranch is growing, John has already begun to lay out in advance.

Linnell Perry is interested in politics and will certainly not stay in the position of legal counsel for Yellowstone Ranch for too long.

So now Jimmy has become the most distressed person.

Originally, he felt that with the relationship between Linel and John, he would not be able to compete with each other no matter what, so he was ready to find another way.

It so happened that he learned from a cowboy on the ranch that John's second son, Jamie, was a school in New York and a promising best-selling novelist.

If you can become a personal lawyer for the other party and take the opportunity to establish yourself in New York, it will certainly be much more promising than staying in the rural part of Montana.

But now things have changed.

Whether to stay and enjoy a good and easy job, or to go to New York and work again.

Jimmy hesitated.
