“Help me? Hearing those words come out of your mouth makes me sick!” said Serenity.
The people around were all lawyers; they were no fools. They could more or less figure out what’s happening by now. They now saw Liliana in a different light. The image Liliana tried to build up had crumbled.
Liliana originally wanted to embarrass Serenity in order to vent her frustration of getting humiliated in the hospital during the medical checkup.
To her dismay, the person getting embarrassed now was her.
Without thinking of what she was doing, she picked up a cup of tea in front of
her and splashed Serenity with it.
Serenity saw it coming and stepped back to dodge. She managed to avoid getting splashed on her face, but the tea still splashed onto her upper body,
Because the weather was getting warm, Serenity was only wearing a white t–shirt on her upper body. The tea immediately. made her shirt wet.
Liliana’s co–workers cried out in surprise. They did not expect Liliana to suddenly do something like that.
Serenity subconsciously tried to cover her chest area, but the next moment, a thin coat draped over her body, covering her up.
“Put it on!” A voice resounded in her ears.
Serenity was stunned. That voice… She turned around and saw a refined yet cold face.
It was Lucas Gomez!
Currently, he was slightly frowning with a hint of anger in his eyes which surprised Serenity because he always looked so indifferent in everything that’s happening around him.
Serenity did not expect Lucas to be there. The coat could obviously help her avoid an embarrassing situation.
Following behind Lucas were the boss of the law firm and two of the firm’s harristers, one of whom was responsible for mentoring Serenity back when she worked at the firm. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
He was currently looking at Serenity with complicated eyes.
“What’s going on here?” the boss asked in a stern voice. Something like this happening in front of the firm’s big client was obviously not a good look for the firm.
Liliana was still angry a moment ago, but her anger had now tumed into trepidation. “N–Nothing. My hand slipped and 1 accidentally spilled tea on Serenity.”
Lucas snorted coldly “Accidentally or intentionally?”
His eyes were piercing
Liliana blushed. “It… It was.” She wanted in insist that it was an accident, but under his cold gaze, the words got stuck in her throat and would not come
The boss‘ eyes swept across the room and he asked the others, “What’s going on here?!”
A co–worker in the office, who was also Serenity’s co–worker three years ago, told the boss what happened.
When he arrived at the part where Liliana askest Serenity to tell the rookies about the specifics of the case, the light in Lucas‘ ryes flickered. His gaze fell on Serenity’s face that had gone slightly pale.
She stood there with his coat draped over her body, the salt covering up the wretched state she was in. Her pale lips made her shockingly dark alinond–shaped eyes stand out.
