Chapter 61 What an Honor
Charli smiled. “Of course.”
“Wow!”
Rachel was so ecstatic that she almost leaped from her seat and yelped. Elisa froze with guilt in her
gaze, because Rachel did not know about the truth even though she was her best friend.
If she remembers what transpired today, will she… resent me?
A conflicted look flitted across her eyes, but she still decided against telling Rachel, with a purse of her
lips.
Vincent was a prodigy and an elite lawyer. Even though Elisa was confident that she would win the
lawsuit, if Vincent knew that Will had hired Iris, he would do anything to win. If it came to that, she might
face various troubles.
Coincidentally, Vincent was even interacting with Rachel. Regardless that their interaction felt off to
Elisa, she did not enquire too much. Nevertheless, she had to be on her guard, because she was

worried that Rachel might let slip the truth to him.
She knew very well that Rachel would never betray her, but she was worried that he might catch some
signals from the way she carried herself.
After moments of agitation, Rachel finally averted her gaze to Elisa. “Elisa, you used to be a housewife,
but do you have any plans now that you are divorced?”
She casually munched on her food and only replied after gulping it down. “I’ll ask Charli if she has any
jobs for me.”
“Woah! In that case, you will meet Iris soon, won’t you?”
Seeing that she was at a loss for words, Charli smiled and said, “Iris is very busy. Even I rarely see her
in person.”
“Fine…”
Rachel wanted to make use of this opportunity to have a look at the office, but she gave up on that

thought after hearing that.
…
The next day, Elisa really went to the law office that was set up using Charli’s name.
There were quite many lawyers at work there, and the atmosphere was quite peaceful and amicable.
However, Elisa’s appearance shocked everyone there.
They could not help looking at her, for she looked rather cool in a formal suit.
On top of that, her beautiful face attracted their attention.
Of course, the most important part that piqued their interest was her current position as Gareth’s ex-
wife.
Charli looked at the crowd and announced nonchalantly, “Everyone, this is Elisa. She will be your
colleague from now onwards.”
One of the lawyers immediately clapped. “Welcome, Ms. Benett.”
Everyone followed his lead, but each of them looked at her differently.
Some of them looked at her casually, giving no care to her identity at all, as they only wanted to do their

job well.
On the other hand, others were curious about her and wanted to listen to more gossip about her affairs.
After all, the news revolving her and Gareth bombarded the news non-stop, making the celebrities hate
them for taking so much of the spotlight.
Of course, there were people who were disdainful toward her, thinking that she was not a real lawyer.
She’s probably just going to find something easy to do so that others will think highly of her career. I bet
she’s going to seduce other men outside of work.
Nevertheless, Elisa smiled at everyone. “Hi, nice to meet you all.”
Even though the smile on her face was perfunctory, she was so beautiful that the crowd could not bear
to look away. One of the guys even replied directly, “Nice to meet you too! It’s our honor to serve you,
sweetie.”
She merely smiled back without replying to him.
Then, Charli replied, “Alright, that’s enough. Get back to your work now. I–Elisa, follow me.”
