16-A Hard Question
Last Updated:
2023-05-27 18:36:50Maya went out, striding towards the elevator.
Behind him, Jason could be vaguely heard shouting angrily: "You are my fucking friend, can you let go of your desire to educate everyone and actually BE a fucking friend?!"
Damian quickly followed Maya. They entered the elevator together, closed the door, and watched the elevator floors jump down one by one. Then, with a "ding", the elevator door opened and the lobby arrived.
And Maya's breath finally calmed down.
Her mind was full of doubts.
Why is Damian here? Did he come for her and Jason?
But how did he know they were here?
Did he know they were arguing before he came?

"But you are sad right now." The lights outside the car window changed, and Damian's voice was flat and crisp, saying these words seemed to be no different from reading a passage of law. But this is almost the gentlest voice she has ever heard since she was reborn.She remembered that she had agreed with Sophia that Damian was like a robot. But now, this "robot" has a lot more heart than the flesh-and-blood "man" she married, making her can't help but want to grab him as a life-saving straw, hold on to him firmly, and gain support.But that is not right.The consequences of entrusting her life to another person last time are still vivid in her mind.

Maya's weekend was a bit uneasy.On the one hand, she was happy that she had obtained evidence of Jason's cheating and violence, but on the other hand, she felt guilty for deceiving Damian. It felt like... if she wasn't happy about being able to divorce, it would be a little less deceiving to Damian.She was fidgeting with this absurd emotional split. In the end, she simply went out with her computer on her back, found a coffee shop, dug out the framework template of the prenuptial agreement, and made the first draft of the agreement for Mr. Ryan's case.Extra work on the weekends got her an over-the-top affirmation from her superior on Monday.

The client's home is in a high-end apartment building in the city center. A large penthouse on the 19th floor.The living room is simple in black, white and gray, and there are no more colors in the artwork decoration on the wall. Most of the furniture is cold and hard metal, with sharp edges and corners, sharp and ostentatious.It is very consistent with the customer's clothing style.Client's fiancée Emma is very different.

Are you happy after marriage? What is the difference between marriage and love?

Sophia's joke made Maya's mood experience another roller coaster. Coupled with the little pressure from Ryan just now, she felt a little exhausted in her limbs and stomach now that she finally got a moment to breathe. And it's not even lunchtime yet.It can only be said that this morning's experience is too rich.She stepped back and took a deep breath to calm herself. Then she smiled apologetically at Sophia: "The other party's character and occupation may be a little troublesome."Jason was still waiting for her to bow her head.Even though they had a huge blow out in front of so many people, Maya knew he was still waiting.

The weather was fine Sunday morning, the sun was bright and warm. Many leaves in the park have changed color, green, yellow, and red are layered on top of each other, which is refreshing to look at. A gust of wind blew, and there were many fallen leaves on the ground. Many children ran on the side of the road and in the grass, picking up one or two leaves from the ground, and holding them in their hands to look at them curiously.Maya thought of Madeline a little uncontrollably. After she learned to walk, she was also like the children in this park. She was curious about everything, and she liked to walk around staggeringly, and went to have a look when she found something.Most of the new life is very good, only Madeline, who can't come back, is Maya's only regret."Am I late?"

"Then what's the point?" Damian shrugged, "Let's eat talk about it."He threw the dumpling into his mouth and ate it."Sophia and the others, do they all know that you are leaving?" Maya felt her mind was a little confused, so she found the simplest question and threw it away first."Them? They should have always known that this day would come." Damian thought for a while, "But I haven't officially announce anything on the date."Well, that means she was probably the first to know that he was returning to the family business. Maya felt a subtle sense of psychological satisfaction."Okay." Maya shrugged, "I never thought you would inheriting the family business. It feels bit sudden."Before today, Damian in her mind had always been a reliable senior, a peer who called each other. He is indeed much richer than her, but he doesn't have obvious rich habits, which is completely different from Vincent and the like. She also hadn't considered the possibility of his identity changing.Now, s

In a cafe near the law firm.Maya sat by the window, watching the number of people in the store getting fewer and fewer, watching the sunlight on the street outside the window getting darker and darker, and the lights getting brighter and brighter. People who were in a hurry to get off work left, and people who went out for a walk or play after dinner appeared again.She only took a sip of the coffee placed in front of her. A book open on the table, and not even one page turned. She peeled off the skin on the edge of her thumbs, and she couldn’t even feel the pain.Damian took Jason away.What will they talk about? Will Jason take another chance to get something out of Damian?Although she was well aware of Damian's intelligence and ability, she still couldn't help but worry. After all, Jason got into trouble because of her.Finally, a familiar voice appeared outside the window.Maya stood up immediately and couldn't wait to greet Damian when he stepped into the store door and asked,

"You're the one who's crazy alright?!" Unable to escape, Maya gritted her teeth and retorted.It was after hours. People are going in and out of the building. Not want to be the center of an ugly gossip, Maya lowered her voice when he didn’t turn to violence too fast.Her wrist still hurt from being squeezed."The client that Damian introduced to me!" Jason seemed really anxious. He ignored Maya's scolding and raised his hand to pull her forward, "Don't say you don't know!""What should I know?!" He used too much force, and Maya felt that her wrist was about to be broken. In pain, she began to struggle again.Based on the key words of Jason's question, she had some guesses about his question.Could it be that something happened so quickly to the customer Damian told her about?"You really don't know?" Jason snorted angrily.He gritted his teeth and stared at her for a long time, looking at her expression as she focused on staying away from him. Finally, he took two deep breaths, nodde

"Legal Advisor" Damian is very professional. After receiving the payment, he helped "client" Maya sort out several typical emotional needs, and attached possible manifestations, as well as replacement conditions that can be used for negotiation.For Maya, the "client", the process of payment is pleasant both physically and mentally, and the advice received is very professional and of high reference value. The only minor drawback was that after the payment, the client felt a little mentally exhausted, but the consultant insisted on finishing the consulting.Of course, the advice itself was good.Based on the suggestion, Maya asked Tanya to review her relationship experience, try to judge her husband's psychological needs, and then design tests to determine the negotiation plan.But her proposal encountered a slight setback.Tanya is unwilling to carry out the plan or even review the life between the two of them."No, no, no.

Breaths entwine with each other.Maya felt that she might have been bewitched in some way.The cold woody aroma of Damian's body mixed with his own scent, creating a thick, warm undertone, but almost cold to the touch, like mint and snow. This breath is just like him. When it is first touched, it is cold and sharp, stimulating people to wake up. When the mellow and warm part penetrates, people are already immersed in it unconsciously.She sniffed this smell, hooked her smooth muscles on her shoulders, and touched her lips and tongue repeatedly with him. Nothing else mattered, and the two of them became each other's center, as if souls had been exchanged through such a touch.And Damian was obviously as immersed in it as she was. He held her back with one hand and pressed the nape of her neck, while the other hand was pressed against her lower back, rubbing it unconsciously as he moved.After an unknown amount of time, Maya's waist touched something a little hard.

Maya immediately regained her relaxed posture, raised her hands, and asked him to hurry up and continue serving. Non worriedat all whether she, as a “customer”, was being too generous.Damian seemed to be very satisfied with her reaction. The hand that was pressing on her forehead slid down smoothly, and the back of his hand lightly rubbed her cheek before taking it back and spoke unhurriedly:"The only common methods used by people like them are coaxing, threatening, and buying. Coaxing is not suitable for people who are familiar with it. According to your information, he used to control your customers before, mainly using so-called legal threats. Now, this approach doesn’t work, so the only option left is bribery.”&n

When the two were sitting on the sofa reading a book together, Maya chatted with Damian about Tanya's case.She and Damian were shoulder to shoulder, and the book she held in her hands hadn't turned a page for nearly ten minutes. She had read a passage three or four times, but she didn't really remember what the book said. All she could think about was what Sophia said a few days ago."It seems like a waste of resources if you don't ask him."Sophia's encouragement has helped her overcome the psychological barrier of "exploiting relationships outside of work". Damian is by your side now, and you can ask for his opinion just by opening your mouth.So, should she speak up?Considering the issue of customer privacy, should she obtain first Tanya’s consent before discussing with a third person?She bit her lip and hesitated, but she didn't notice that Damian had put down the book in his hand at some point and tilted his head to look at her.After watching for a while, Damian finally touch

Tanya burst out laughing, though someone just looked her in the eye and said harsh words."Ah, I was too slowly today. I should have told him before he left that asking you to be my lawyer was the most correct decision I have ever made!" She laughed so hard she bent over with her hand on her her stomach, almost fell on the table.After finally laughing enough, she stood up, walked to the two female lawyers, and gave them each a hug: "Really, thank you. Sophia, Maya, if you have seen how my conversation with him ended last time, you will understand how happy I truly am today!"Seeing Tanya's smile and hearing her words, Maya truly understood Sophia's intentions."But I angered him. If he goes back today, he will probably discuss a solution with your husband and embarrass you." Sophia tilted her head and reminded Tanya.And not sure whether it was because Tanya was too happy or because she really didn't care, she waved her hand and said, "Let them think of a solution.

Maya doesn't want to take the time to hear what Jason did. But she was really curious about the method Damian used to stop Jason from causing trouble."I just gave him a client." Damian's eyes were still very sincere when he told the story, "This client is a bit troublesome to me, but it is an opportunity for him. If he can restrain his desire, nothing bad will happen. .”Maya felt that behind his sincerity, she also saw cunning. A very flexible and calm cunning. This made her look forward to Jason’s choice with this client.Her expectations were so strong that when she was working, she would get distracted from time to time, imagining the scene where the two people were left to their own devices, facing the court's judgment."You were a little distracted today." Tanya's voice woke Maya up.Maya was startled, quickly recovered, and looked up at Tanya. But the look in Tanya’s eyes was not dissatisfaction, but rather, gossip."Anything fun and happy?
