Chapter 203
“You don’t like them?”
Renee’s hand froze in mid–air. She looked slightly embarrassed. “Zack said purple carnations are your favorite. Looks like that guy doesn’t know you at all. I’ll punish him when I get back!”
“Then what flower do you like? I’ll get a new bouquet for you immediately…”
Sandra pushed her sunglasses up, lifted her chin, and said in a condescending tone. “No, he’s right, I used to like purple carnations, but when I saw you holding them, I started to hate them.”
“…”
It was like a slap to Renee’s face.
Renee felt so embarrassed that her curling toes could make holes in the ground.
If it was anyone else being so rude, Renee would have long retaliated.
But the person was the elite beauty of the legal industry, Sandra Lee. Renee only felt that she was so cool, so arrogant, so dashing! She loved it!
“It’s okay, you can hate me, but the flowers are innocent, so please don’t hate the flowers. These beautiful carnations will cry if you hate them…”
Renee shamelessly continued to hand the large bouquet of carnations to Sandra.
The pair of beautiful eyes hidden under the sunglasses currently had a complicated emotion in them.
After a long time, she disdainfully pursed her lips. “I can’t believe Stefan’s ex–wife has such thick skin. Do you not understand
rejection? Can you not see when someone hates you?”
“Let me make things clear. I don’t like flowers, and I sure as hell don’t like you. Your behavior can already be considered
harassment. I’ll pursue legal action if necessary.”
After saying that. Sandra walked past Renee with her chin up like a proud peacock.
Seeing the woman walk away, Renee was not mad at all. She merely shrugged helplessly. The look on her face could only be described as… “loving“!
“What about Jane?”
Renee suddenly raised her voice and asked.
Sandra’s tall figure paused for a while before turning back to Renee. “What did you say?”
“Do you hate Jane too?”
Renee asked again.
Sandra took off her sunglasses and glared at Renee with hostile eyes. She asked coldly, “You investigated me?”
“Of course.”
Renee admitted honestly. “You’re my lawyer. Of course I investigated you.”
“I’m not your lawyer. I came back to cancel my contract. From now on, I no longer have any relationship with the Hunts and Co. Law Firm, and I definitely won’t be working for you.”
Sandra’s attitude was firm.
She only joined the Hunts and Co. Law Firm because of Stefan Hunt in the first place. Otherwise, there was no way a person of her talents would work in a place like that.
Now that the firm had changed hands, she naturally would not stay.
Although she had to pay a huge contract termination fee, the amount was a piece of cake for her.
Renee nodded calmly. “We all have our ambitions, so I respect your choice. But before you terminate your contract, I, as your
current boss, would still like to do something for you…”
As she said that, she took out her phone, played a video and handed the phone to Sandra.
“What’s this…?”
Upon seeing the video’s content. Sandra’s cold eyes actually softened..
–
Renee said, slowly, “This video was taken on your daughter’s sixth birthday. It should have been a long time since you last saw her. I heard she’s very talented. She’s good at all sorts of things the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting… She’s also inherited your talent as a lawyer. She’s read various law books at a young age and is something of a little legal specialist at her school. She…”
“Stop!”
Sandra looked away, her eyes regaining their former indifference. She looked forward expressionlessly. “I gave her up for adoption, so she has nothing to do with me anymore. How talented she is doesn’t concern me.”
“But you’re surprisingly resourceful. To think that you managed to find out about my personal secret… You can expect a legal letter from me soon!”
Renee ignored Sandra’s fierce threat.
She was also about to become a mother herself, so she knew better than anyone that there was no mother in the world who did not love her child.
The more indifferent and heartless Sandra Lee appeared to be, the more it showed that the child had a soft spot in her heart…
Renee’s lips curled into a smile absentmindedly. She could definitely win over Sandra Lee!
She slowly walked closer to Sandra and asked, “Miss Lee, aren’t you curious what Jane’s birthday wish was?”
