2023-04-03 18:09:17Mia's sharp eyes dimmed as she stared at the name written on the file, she clenched it in her hands a frown settling on her face. "What is this Dylan? I had said not to accept any cases from that family." Mia muttered slamming the file on the bed.
Dylan jotted slightly but his gaze was firm although it wavered for some seconds. "I could not reject the case, the Luca family placed pressure on me," Dylan remarked staring squarely at her. Some time ago when the Luca family had approached him he had been very plausive about accepting the case, but he had no choice when they began putting pressure on the firm.
"The Luca family eh, more like scheming ditch family." Mia spat out picking up the file once again, she turned to the page she had opened previously and continued reading through it. "It seems like this was all a plot eh? Why is this case still on hold as it has been six months already?" Mia asked glancing at the date recorded in the file.
"It was ordered by the court so it was placed on pending, you are a lawyer and judge yourself. You should know all these." Dylan answered rolling his eyes at her, sometimes she seemed to forget who she was. Mia nodded her head after his words, she did not frown at him as he expected.
The court usually gave 6 months for couples who did not have any issues but wanted to get a divorce, it was usually done to see if a change would set in for the situation. "Coincidentally, I am back after 6 months. It's nice, to prepare the files for me and the evidence needed for the case too. I would like to get this over with." Mia stated placing the file back down, her green eyes flicked as she raised her eyes.
"Yes, I will. Why don't you go take some rest now, you just came back from California anyway you must be tired." Dylan remarked standing up on his feet. Mia nodded and stood up on her feet too, she picked up her cell phone, and phone and took two steps away from the chair.
"Keep me updated, for now. Goodbye, ciao." Mia waved at him and then she walked out of the office, pushing the door open she strode towards the elevator and entered clicking on the ground floor.
She had come into the firm like a ghost and she was also leaving like a ghost too, she smirked in a mockiñg way. She climbed out of the elevator when she got to the ground floor then she strode towards her car, she clicked on her car keys and the door opened. Before she entered as she spotted a figure she was fairly familiar with, she raised her brows and snorted before entering her car and driving away.
~~~~~
Mia groaned as she rolled out of her bed, she fell on the rugged floor and a groan left her mouth. "What the h*ll, bullsh*t." Mia cursed as she stood up on her feet. Notifications entered her phone like a dinging bell, she glared at the phone like it was an enemy as a call came through.
The name monkey face appeared on the screen, she rolled her eyes before picking up the phone. "What, What, what? It's f*cking past 6 for goodness sake." Mia half yelled and half said.
"Yeah it is past 6 in California not in Italy, it is 8 am now darling," Dylan remarked from the other end of the line picking up the mug of coffee on the desk before him.
Mia pulled the phone away from her ears and glanced at the time, her eyes slightly widened when she saw it was 8 am. She hit herself on the head, " Whatever, what do you want now? It's still too early if I may say." Mia said lazily taking her seat on the side of the bed.
"You have a meeting in an hour, prepare for it and come to the office early," Dylan remarked.
Mia frowned, "what meeting are you talking about? I do not have anything scheduled for the day."
"You did not but now you do have something scheduled, the Lucas wants a meeting with the lawyer in charge of the divorce and it's you." Dylan pointed out, he could feel a headache coming in. He had received an unexpected call in the morning and he could not say no to them.
"For a dignified family they do like picking on others quite a lot, I will be there soon. Give me 45 minutes and also prepare breakfast in the office." Mia said rolling her eyes, she knew the stupid family already had her movements monitored. It was not a surprise.
"Mmmm.." Dylan hummed and ended the call. Mia placed down her phone and found her way toward the bathroom.
Arriving at the office at exactly 8:50 was a huge fit for Mia, she swore she was going to kill those people if they messed with her further than they were already doing now. She marched towards her office with her Litton bag swinging in her hand, she pushed the door opened and stepped in.
"Here's your healthy breakfast, quickly get ready for the meeting. You have 10 minutes." Dylan said as she stepped in pointing to the tray of food on the table between the couches.
Mia nodded and walked towards the couch, she sat down and piled off the nylon covering the food. It was a simple salad and coffee with pancakes, she nodded her head in satisfaction. He still knew her taste a lot.
Mia devoured the salad quickly and the pancakes too, she took a large sip from her coffee mug to digest the food. "I am ready for the meeting, lead the way." She said as she cleaned her mouth with the napkins beside the tray.
Dylan nodded and gestured her towards the door, he sighed as he thought about the drama that would unfold soon.

I thought you had all the lawyers paid off already. Are you becoming incompetent?" Adriano said with an arrogant tone, his voice sounded lazy but at the same time enchanting."I had them all paid off, no one was willing to take the case till the law firm from 6 months ago. They refused all the money from our side and choose to support Lucas." Grey said shakingly, he took in a fearful breath. He could feel the boss's anger raising.Adriano's eyes stilled, his gaze turned piercing as the Atlantic's.

Dylan moved forward and stretched his hand towards Adriano for a handshake, he failed to notice the shift in the air around the conference room. "Good day, Mr. Adriano." Adriano glanced at the hand stretched out to him and he didn't exchange handshakes with him, Adriano stepped away from where he was standing going closer to where Mia was standing."Mr. Maximus, why are you here? This meeting is between the Luca's and me, you should leave now." Mia said after gaining back her composure gesturing towards the door for him to leave the room, her green eyes stilled."We called him over here, let him take a seat over there." Mr. Luca the major of Rome muttered from behind Mia as he entered the conference room, behind him were two young-looking women. "Both of you come in." Mr. Luca gestured at his daughters and they both walked in.The Luca's was looking like expensive proclaim fools, they had themself adorned in all kinds of necklaces and earrings and also sprayed numerous perfumes on th

Dylan wondered why he was being chased out, before he could process his thoughts he was pushed out of the elevator and the elevator was shut closed. "Hello, why don't we go talk about it there? Grey said pointing towards the conference room. Adriano took the elevator going up to the top floor, his expression was very cold and dark. He looked like he had just gotten angered by something, it was the case but he was seeking the wrong solution to his problem. He was going to tell Mia to drop the case and not fight it, he would tell her to stay away from the case and not interfere in it. The elevator chimed open and he was brought out of his thoughts, he climbed down the elevator and walked across the hallway. He came across two secretaries and another person, and then another before he got to the large office at the end of the floor. The secretaries gasped when they saw the man walking across the hall, he looked like a painting that was gotten from the wall. He was enchanting and beautif

She clenched her fist hitting it continuously on the ground, she was determined to get rid of the feelings of pain in her heart but it was futile. Her efforts were not yielding any results.The elevator dinged opened and she picked up her bags hurriedly and scurried her way out of the elevator, she got to her car and got on it.

Dylan sighed after Adriano walked out of the office, he picked up his phone and called the mansion phone in Mia's mansion… He was pretty sure, Mia would not take his calls. The home phone began ringing after he dialed it, he patiently waited for someone to pick up the call.In Mia's mansion, the butler walked to the old phone in the living room. He picked up the phone and placed it on his ears, "Flowery Mansion, who am I speaking with?" The bulter asked "It's me, Dylan," Dylan replied in a cool tone, although he was anxious he kept calm on the surface."Young Master Dylan, it's a pleasure to speak to you after so long. How may I be of help to you?" The old butler muttered, a tiny smile appearing on his face."The young mistress, is she home? Is she okay?" Dylan questioned in one goal."She is okay, young master. She went off to sleep a few moments ago, I took care of her already.." the butler answered, he wanted to ask why the young mistress had come home in a bad mood but he heard b

Mia woke up to the bright light peeking into the room from the window, she furrowed get brows and brought her hand forward to block the light from clouding her vision. She turned around and rolled out of the bed, her face had dried tears streak in them that fell off as she made her face into an expression of pain.Pain! Pain! Pain! That was what she was feeling beneath her abdomen, it seems her period had visited sooner than it was supposed to come. She used her hands in rubbing her stomach before standing up to walk towards her bathroom, she glanced at the stained bedsheets and a frown settled on her face. Her period wasn't supposed to have come just yet, she had not taken anything sweet too."Damn, Period. I am gonna have cramps for three days now."
