Chapter 107
Seeing that Michael was calling, Naomi answered the call and put it on the car’s loudspeaker. “Hello, Mr.
Symth.”
“Naomi, you did a great job with today’s lawsuit. There’s talk about it in the Industry now, and a few companies just called to ask about your situation. It seems like they want you to represent them legally,” Michael said.
“Okay, I’ll head to the office right away. We’ll talk more later.” Naomi smiled.
“I bet you haven’t had lunch yet. What do you want to eat? I’ll order some takeout for you myself.
“How about steak? I’ll order it for you now, so you can have it when you arrive at the office,” Michael
asked.
“Thank you, Mr. Symth.” Even after the call ended, the smile on Naomi’s face lingered.
Every time she won a lawsuit, she felt a sense of accomplishment–as though there was a purpose in life.
That sense of happiness was something she couldn’t experience at her family’s company.
More than ten minutes later, Naomi arrived at the law firm.
After finishing the steak that Michael had ordered for her, she immersed herself fully in her work.
At around 8:00 pm, Reuben called her and invited her over to the bar for some drinks. Only then did Naomi notice that it was late and that her colleagues had all left.
She had just finished her tasks as well. She stretched and tidied up her documents before leaving the law
firm.
Meanwhile, at the bar, Brendan had confiscated Ronald’s and Mason’s phones and placed them on the
coffee table.
He lounged lazily on the couch, watching the two with a stern expression.
On the other hand, Ronald and Mason were on the verge of tears.
Ronald felt speechless. “Isn’t one punishment enough?”
