Chapter 4

Charn went downstairs, he got into the elevator and was ready to call Rose to ask her if he could use her guest room that night, but as he reached the entrance of the building, he immediately recognized Arm, standing next to a taller guy, both looking like they were waiting for someone. Charn put the phone back into his pocket and directly handed the suitcase to the taller guy.

"There is no reason to leave your boss waiting. I also need a room for tonight, I'm sure that you can handle this easy matter yourself, right?" Charn said calmly, showcasing that particular smile of his as he got into the car. Pol put the heavy suitcase into the back of the car while Arm didn't even get the chance to reply properly.

"Did your boss provide any additional instructions? I'm sure he didn't just tell you to come and pick me up, am I right? He really seemed a nice person during the interview... well, I always find my clients nice enough until they can't afford my services..." Charn started.

"Why didn't Khun Kim tell us that he's so talkative?" Pol murmured in Arm's ear. The latter just moved his hand in a chaotic manner near his ear, knowing that it wasn't appropriate to talk like that in front of one of Kim's guests. Charn was a little surprised to see the two bodyguards act like that, they seemed too calm to be working with someone so important... Thatthep's henchmen tended to be much more silent and intimidating.

The car stopped in front of the Theerapanyakul mansion. Pol got off the car first and opened the car door so that Charn could get off too. The lawyer got off the vehicle, a third bodyguard approached him and asked him who he was, Charn sighed and turned to Arm, who just got off the car and immediately ordered the third guy to move away, so that he could take the guest to meet their boss.

Kim was in his office on the second floor, he hung up after Pol called him to inform him of their arrival. He sat down and waited. Arm knocked on the door and he let Charn inside after his boss said so. Kim stood up and walked to him with a subtle smile on his face.

"Khun Charn, nice to meet you. I really hoped the occasion to meet a famous lawyer like you could be different, but we don't control fate, am I right? Sit down please, would you like something to drink?" Kim started. Charn sat down and after a brief pause, he replied:

"In all fairness, I rarely meet important people in better occasion, you have no reason to worry about it. Your diligent assistant has told me that you want me to handle your case, but I prefer to listen to all the details of the story directly from my client, it makes my work much easier and effective"

"I know, that's why I asked Arm to pick you up as soon as possible. I'm afraid we won't have time to book a hotel nearby, but I'm sure that you will find our guest apartment comfortable. So, do you want to pose questions first or you prefer to handle the bureaucratic part out of the way before we dive into the facts?" Kim asked.

"I guess we can start from the questions. Were you alone when the aggressor attacked you?" Kim calmly replied that he was with his husband.

"I see, well, I need to meet him too then. During the trial, the police will surely find out that he was there as well, and we surely don't want to reach that point unprepared" Charn responded.

"Of course, but if that's the case, I have to ask you if we can continue this conversation tomorrow morning. My husband is still pretty shocked, he went to sleep early and I don't really want to disturb if it isn't absolutely urgent" Kim replied, his tone was definitely that of a person caring for his beloved soulmate, but it could also be part of an act, it wouldn't be so unusual.

"No problem, Khun Kimhan, I'll use this spare time to look how much information are already of public domain. Good night"
