Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Helen’s POV:

My car was taken away by the insurance company.

And because of the huge dent at the back, it would take about two weeks for it to be repaired.I had no

choice but to take George‘s offer.

For two weeks, he would drive me to and from work every day.

Before learning to drive, I used to think that taking the subway was better.It was convenient, fast, and

affordable.

But now that I was used to driving my own car, I no longer had the patience to ride public

transportation.

What was more, the incident in the subway last time had traumatized me.

Every time I thought of it, I would tremble all over.

George did not let me take the subway on my own for that same reason as well.

At this moment, while he was driving me to work, I sighed heavily and said, "It‘s really difficult to be

extravagant and then be frugal the next day.Thanks for giving me a ride to work in the next two weeks."

George smiled.

"I actually wish you‘d ask me to do this every day.Besides, it‘s only right for the husband to drive his

wife to work."

"Honey..."

This was the first time I called him this intimately.We rarely addressed each other using our

endearment.

Holding the steering wheel with one hand, George squeezed my hand with the other.

After everything that happened, George and I had become much closer.

When we were a few blocks away from the office building, instead of asking George to drop me off

already, I let him send me in front of the entrance of the law firm.

At this moment, he parked the car and got out of it to open the car door for me.

"I‘ll show you something after work tonight."

"What is it?" I curiously asked.

"You‘ll see.Now go inside," George urged.

He was standing by the car door, staring at me with his deep-set eyes.

"Ooh.Sounds exciting."

“Is it a surprise?"

Even though I had just arrived at my workplace and started my day, I already could not wait for the

evening to come.

Anya had returned from her business trip.

Phil, on the other hand, had just come back to the law firm after finishing a project.

"Morning," I greeted them both.

I had come to Anya‘s office to say hello.

Coincidentally, Phil was there as well.

For some reason, the two of them were staring at me with curiosity written all over their faces.

"Did George drive you to work?" Anya asked.

"Are you two living together?" Phil added curiously.

I nodded in response.

Phil sighed and shrugged his shoulders.

"Well, it‘s not a shame to lose to George." Anya laughed.

"That‘s good to hear.You two are a perfect match."

As I was walking out of Anya‘s office, I received a call from Korbin, who told me to meet him as soon as

possible.

Apparently, there was a progress in the negotiation between Spacetime Finance and Fantail

Entertainment.

Without further ado, I hurriedly took the relevant documents and decided to hail a cab.

Gentleman as he was, Phil took the car key and offered, "Let me drive you there."

"Thank you, Phil."

On the way to Spacetime Finance, Phil reminded me, "By the way, I hope you don‘t mind me saying,

but remember that George‘s family background is complicated.Surely, it matters to his family whether

your family background matches theirs or not.I know you‘re an amazing woman, but it might not be

enough for them.So, Helen, don‘t get in too deep just yet, or you won‘t be able to escape.By then, you‘ll

regret it."

"I understand," I replied.

"You‘re quite smart.Why do you seem dumb when it comes to him?" Phil sighed helplessly.

"Because I trust him."

In all honesty, I was also concerned about the problems Phil had mentioned.However, I believed that

George would take care of them.It was better to live in the moment and enjoy the wonderful time

George and I had rather than worry about the things that had not happened.

Phil and I chatted all the way to Spacetime Finance.

When we arrived at his office, Korbin briefly greeted us and then went straight to the point.

"After further discussion, we can accept the fact that Sanford only has two years left on his

contract.However, we won‘t take any of the trainees they currently have.Fantail Entertainment has

already agreed to this proposal.The finer details of this matter then require communication between

you and their team."

He was implying that we lawyers should talk to the trainees.

Based on the evaluation of Spacetime Finance, these people were not much of an asset anyway.It

would be a waste of time and financial resources if they kept them in the company after the acquisition.

Of course, I had to do it.It was our job anyway to step in and negotiate the termination of contracts with

these trainees.

"By the way, those trainees are gone, plus the fact that Sanford has only about two years left before his

contract expires, you also need to help us reassess the situation and come up with a new offer to

Fantail Entertainment."

"Noted.I will connect with the financial department and the appraisal agency right away.The new

acquisition price will not be broadcast until it is reevaluated." Korbin smiled with satisfaction.

"I hope you finish this as soon as possible.I‘m looking forward to hearing some good news from you."

Just as Phil and I were about to leave Spacetime Finance, we happened to bump into Velma.Her face

turned pale when she saw me.It was as if my presence repulsed her.

At this moment, she motioned at me to leave here at once.I had no idea what was going on in this

spoiled princess‘s mind.

But since I remained unmoved, Velma stamped her feet and left in a huff.

All of a sudden, a lady came out of the reception room not far away.

She was wearing a knee–length skirt with a matching jacket and a pair of high heels.

Her hair was put meticulously in an elegant updo, and her poise was impeccable.

"Velma, where are you going?"

Her voice was gentle, yet it was commanding.It could make anyone be in awe.

Velma stopped in her tracks and slowly turned around.

"I‘m...I‘m going to the restroom."

Meanwhile, Phil and I just stood there and watched Velma get flustered.

This pampered princess used to fear no anyone, except George.

But seeing her get so flustered now, I could not help but wonder who this lady was.

"I‘m sorry, I should‘ve told you sooner that my father hasn‘t been to the company recently," Velma

apologetically said.

Then, she walked over to the lady and held the latter‘s arm.

When the lady was not looking, Velma furtively blinked her eyes at me, indicating me to leave.I had no

idea what was going on, but I just shrugged it off.

Without a word, I turned around and left with Phil.

When we arrived at the parking lot, we found that the tire of Phil‘s car was flat.He nonchalantly took out

the tool kit from the trunk and began changing the tire.

While he worked, I squatted next to him and handed him the tools he needed.

"Are you sure you can change it yourself? How about we call a tow truck driver? Can you really fix it?

What if it explodes? Your car is already old.It‘s time to get a new one," I jokingly said.

I was in a good mood, so I could not help but make poke fun at him.

"How hard can it be? I‘ve been driving this for years, and I fix it myself every time it breaks."

As he spoke, someone approached us from behind.We slowly turned our heads and found that it was

the elegant lady who Velma was with.

"Do you need help?" she politely asked.

Meanwhile, Velma stood not far away from her.She seemed to be in fear and utter shock.

Phil and I looked at the lady in surprise.

He then came to his senses first.

With a faint smile, he waved his hand and respectfully said, "No, thank you."

We thought that this enthusiastic lady was just passing by, so we said nothing more and just continued

what we were doing.

Phil and I chatted and laughed as we changed the tire.

"I heard your shabby car get rear–ended yesterday? Why don‘t you ask George to buy you a new car?

That way I can ride to work with you," Phil jokingly asked.

"I‘ll just ask him to give you a new car.He‘s very rich anyway," I retorted.

"That sounds better.Besides, he should thank me.I‘ve been guiding you for a long time.Besides, if I

hadn‘t quit, he might not have been the winner."

To my surprise, he touched my face and then laughed hard.My eyes widened when I realized that he

had touched me with his dirty fingers.I wiped the dirt and grime off my face, but it dawned on me that

my hands were dirty as well.I was annoyed.I raised my hand and vigorously tried to wipe my face

clean.

At this moment, the elegant lady came over again.

"You two, could you hurry up?"

We turned around and found that it was the same lady from earlier.

With a faint smile, she pointed to the car behind her and explained, "You‘re blocking my way."

"Oh my gosh! We‘re so sorry.We‘ll be done soon," I assured with an apologetic smile.

It was only then that I realized that she must have been waiting for us for quite some time.

For some reason, she looked familiar to me.I could not remember when I had first met her before,

though.

"Velma, please get over here and see if they need any help."

"Well, I actually know them.This is Helen and that‘s Phil.They are both lawyers and she is currently in

charge of the case of acquiring Fantail Entertainment."

"I see.It‘s nice to meet you, Helen.Anyway, I‘m looking for a lawyer as I have a case to be solved.Can

you give me your phone number?"

I surmised that Velma was acquainted with the lady.

And judging from her car and the way she talked, she must be a rich lady, which made her a decent

client.

So, without a second thought, I gave her my contact information.
