Let's Get Married novel Chapter 35

Speaking of which, she deliberately pauses and looks at Stella. If she has not mistaken, Stella is one of Hanwei’s officer who admired Carlos, but to what extent, it remains unknown.

Hearing her words, Stella spontaneously looks at the direction of Carlos’s office. But unfortunately, the blinds are pulled down and are impossible to look inside.

But somehow, she behaves that she has discovered something and turns into fierce tone, “I have heard from Julia’s employee that she was here through the backdoor, she has a connection with the superior, and now she even get Carlos’s attention…..”

Mary stays calm and brushes her hair, “Yeah, who knows, I’m just saying, let’s go back to work.”

……

However, the atmosphere inside the office is completely different.

Carlos throws the files all over the table. “Who told you to make a promise with him?”

Lily freezes. “What promise?”

Carlos put both of his hand on the table and moves closer to her. “Have you forgotten?”

Lily swallows hard. After a while, she finally remembers her words. ‘This wasn’t a difficult case; we’ll make sure you got the compensation.’

But what’s wrong with it, it is a normal thing to say; besides it is also to appease him.

She looks up, “I don’t think there’s a problem.”

“What?” Carlos chuckles, “Do you have any evidence? Are you confident that we’ll win the case? You haven’t even applied for the information in the court. Based on what that makes you say we’ll win?”

“I just thought that as a lawyer, we have this responsibility….”

“You thought so?” Carlos slams the table indignantly, “Didn’t you know that in our job, we have to be responsible in every word we said. If we can’t win this case, you’ll be grasping straws. How dare you teach me how to be responsible?”

Lily is struck by his word, not understanding his temper, yet irritated. “It’s just a few words. Carlos if you have something against me just said it, stop beating around the bush.”

Hearing that, Carlos seems to stagger and looks at her in a disdainful way. “Excuse me? I have something against you? Who do you think you are?”

Lily annoyed.

“It’s just a few words.” He mocks her words, “If you are this superficial, I don’t think you suit this job.”

Lily clenches up her fist, she really wanted to refute Carlos. For the reason that, from the moment she enters his office, even before arguing with him, she did nothing wrong.

But now she can’t say a word.

“How dare you criticize my quality?” Carlos stands up, his eyes are cold. “Looks like you left your brain in your school.”

He throws Lily’s file out, “Get out, I won’t work with a person like you.”

……

Unconsciously, Lily returns to the office, her mind is somewhat unhinged. Crystal, who has been observing her, hesitated for a while, but still decides to pull her out of the office. “Hey, what’s wrong? You’re like a walking zombie.”

Lily shakes her head, “I’m fine.”

“You sure?”

“Yeah.” Lily is absolutely absent-minded. “Crystal, I still need to do some errands, see you later.”

When Crystal sees her leaving, she bits her teeth, grabs her and looks around. She whispers, “Lily, did you really have a thing with Carlos…”

“What do you mean?”
