It was pouring Monday morning, and the road started to get stuck in traffic. Maya ended the Uber order halfway and walked nearly two miles to the office on foot. She was in a hurry, out of breath, and still late.

Fortunately, a large number of colleagues in the law firm's work system were reporting late, and the partners also notified the team, and all work arrangements were postponed for half an hour.

Even though with an umbrella, her clothes still got wet, and the damp and cold breath seeped into her skin, making her feel sticky and cold. She threw the umbrella in the bag on the ground, took out the computer in the bag to make sure it wasn't wet, and couldn't help shivering a little when she was about to sit down.

It was too cold. She stomped her feet, opened the drawer and took out the cup, then turned and went to the pantry.

Even if the coffee in the law firm is terrible, something hot would be nice.

Various machines in the tea room have been started, and new coffee powder and

    Sophia was wearing a gray-purple suit, with one side of her golden half-length curly hair tucked behind the ears while the other side loose, looking at them with a smile. When Maya met her for the first time, with her blond hair, blue eyes, and the way she spoke, Maya thought she just met a female version of Jason. But after talking to her, she found that they are completely different—Jason was good at making everything look simple and easy, acting as if there is no big deal; while Sophia had a sharp and direct character, never avoiding problems, but will hit the nail on the head and point out the problem. They did share the same eye color, but that blue was a kind of inducing gentleness on Jason, yet it become a sharp knife that penetrates everything on Sophia. When she looks directly at you, you feel forced to the corner, and could only face her with utter honesty. Right now her blue eyes were not at its sharpest, but her natural daring aura on her cannot be ignored. Damian did

    At three o'clock in the afternoon, Maya is at the desk, checking whether there are any omissions in the agreement document given to the client. This kind of work requires concentration and meticulousness, but it is also boring and makes people feel sleepy. She supported her chin with her left hand, trying to hold on to one point and one point to look down. It's been over a month since the investigator was found and hired to investigate Jason's movements. During this period, she received some photos that she didn't even want to see, and she bascially knew what Jason had been doing. But the time has not been right. During this period, Jason's crazy phone calls came several times. When can there be a little change? The words on the screen in front of her eyes began to become crooked, Maya woke up startled, and found that she had been staring at the same line for a while. She stretched her waist to wake herself up a bit, and then went back to the text, trying to focus, and continue

    It was more than an hour before the time Jerry said. While packing up her things, Maya was thinking about what kind of image she should appear in and what kind of preparations she should make. First of all, she cannot show up too early. Gotta give them time to let the scene get chaotic. Only by appearing suddenly in the chaos will there be enough impact to see Jason's most authentic reaction. Moreover, if she arrived too early, it would be blatantly telling others that she went there with a plan. Also, it has to be in a hurry. Rush over from where she lives? Or from the office? Maybe home is better, after 9:00, even if there is work, it’s time to take it home and deal with it. Eat well in advance. Once she sees Jason, she will definitely have negative emotions, and it may take a lot of energy to argue. If she was still hungry when that happened, it would be too miserable. Pour out the remaining water in the cup, put the computer in the bag, and take the book "Zen and the Art of Mot

    When the two talked, Maya vaguely listened to the general idea, feeling disgusted and inexplicably wanting to laugh. Indecent is indecent, yet they had such a unique way of saying it without saying it, as if instead of setting loose their darkest desire, they are actually enduring the humiliation and mading it difficult for themselves to expand their business and develop customers. Can the two of them really convince themselves? Shouldn't they be praised, worthy of being lawyers, they are indeed unique in the use of language? From this point of view, in his last life, the high income that Jason got early, including the millions he hid, was obtained through such occasions, the clients here? When she thought that she had spent so much money and lived ignorantly for four years, Maya felt huge absurdity. Ridiculous and disgusting. She bit her teeth, frowned, took out her mobile phone, took a dozen photos of Jason and the environment around him, and put the mobile phone into the pocket

    "I do have a few more words to say." The conflict was interrupted, and it was not easy to return to that tense situation. Maya quickly regained her train of thought - there were still some questions that Jason needed to answer with a few more words. She quietly clenched her fists with both hands and told herself: There is nothing to be angry about, and there is nothing to feel wronged for. Isn’t the purpose of coming here today to suffer some grievances, to leave some evidence, and to have an explanation when explaining to family, friends, and lawyers in the future? It's just that Jason's performance is worse than expected, there is no fundamental difference. Repeating these silently, she restrained herself and didn't touch the air pod hidden under her hair on the right side. Then, she took a deep breath, took two steps towards the less smoky place outside, turned her head, and took a deep look at Jason and his friend with a provocative meaning: "However, there is no need to open a

    Damian's presence was too astonishing. Neither Maya nor Jason could react in time. Maya was simply surprised, so surprised that she was overwhelmed. Jason, on the other hand, seemed impatient with "trouble is coming" written on his face. Countless questions and thoughts flashed across Maya's mind in an instant. Why is Damian here? He also came to participate in this kind of events? Are all the crazy things Jason said just now were true? Anyone who wants to be successful in this world has to dance with the chaos and filth? Damian, too???! Instinctively, she felt that this was impossible, but the fact that she couldn't find an exp

    Maya 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. What's more, with the secret of rebirth, she must be cautious in every move.Maya straightened her sitting position and cle

    "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. Looking back now, every detail tells me that I was a fool." T

    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. The thing seemed to a

    "It's not too difficult to be prepared." Damian raised his hand to wipe offher frown, "But providing solutions will cost you morein my bill.""No problem!" 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. At least today I k

    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?
