Lisa was a bit baffled. She didn't have the slightest clue who this guy was.
"Hey there, Ms. Chloe. I'm your lawyer, Anthony. If you ever find yourself in a jam, I'm your guy," he said smoothly, handing over his business card.
Lisa's eyes widened as she read the card. Anthony wasn't just any lawyer; he was one of the top dogs at the prestigious Eldridge Elites law firm.
"Wait a minute," Lisa stammered, trying to make sense of it all. "Why are you helping me? Did someone put you up to this? Was it my mom?"
Anthony, looking sharp in his business suit, gave off an air of confidence and a hint of superiority. His look was that of someone peering down through a magnifying glass. "Your mom couldn't foot my bill. No, it's Ms. Claire who's got your back. She's the one giving you this lifeline."
Lisa was floored. "Claire? You mean Chloe's Claire?"
She remembered Claire from that reality show with Chloe and Connor. Claire had swooped in during the later episodes, causing quite a buzz. As the Sartori Corporation's heiress, Claire's feud with Connor was practically tabloid fodder. But Lisa had never crossed paths with her. Why on earth would Claire be her savior?
"Mr. Anthony, can I meet Ms. Claire? I’d really like to thank her face-to-face."
Anthony chuckled. "Given where you stand right now, that's a no-go. Just keep in mind, it’s Ms. Claire who’s giving you this fresh start."
