Chapter 44
“Yes, I’m not qualified to compete with you, but I’m not here to look for you.”
With a smile, Valeria finished speaking and looked at Jim, hoping that this spendthrift would cooperate a bit and quickly let her finish her work and leave.
Valeria’s disregard made Hackett extremely unhappy. Hackett picked up the champagne in his hand and drank it in one gulp.
“Mr. Hill, could we talk now? Or could we talk in private? I won’t take up much of your time. Ten minutes will do.”
However, Jim had a lecherous grin on his face and said, “Didn’t Mr. James just say earlier? This is a pool party, and it’s quite inappropriate for you to talk to me dressed like this, Ms. Sharp How about considering changing into a swimsuit?”
Valeria couldn’t take it anymore.
Why did Valeria have to defend such a s***ag?
If it weren’t for Keith. Valeria would definitely turn around and leave. Valeria didn’t even want to look at such a b**d.
“In that case, let’s talk tomorrow. I’ll ask you out tomorrow” With that, Valeria turned around and was
about to leave.
Unexpectedly, a man standing nearby blocked Valeria’s path and said. “Both Mr. James and Mr. Hill invite you to the party. but you dare to refuse? Do you really want to continue your career in the legal field while being so ungrateful!”
“Don’t be a party pooper, Ms. Sharp. Is changing into a swimsuit really such a big deal? Besides, you have a nice figure.” Jim said.
Valeria turned around and looked at the b***d. Then, she looked at Hackett. Hackett was indifferent as if he had no intention of helping Valeria out.
Although Valeria felt a little disappointed, it made sense. Hackett hated Valeria to death now. How could he speak up for her?
“Mr. Hill, if you treat your defense attorney like this, we might not be able to collaborate. Please seek another solution.”
eria rermarked.
Jim laughed, “Are you throwing in the towel and quitting? Well then, I’ll go complain to your law office tomorrow and even expose this situation, so that the industry can see the quality of lawyers at Cooper Law Office”
Jim was no different from a hooligan.
At this time, Valeria was at a loss.
Valeria couldn’t help but look at Hackett again. However, this man was playing with the champagne glass in his hand with his head lowered, looking like he was uninvolved.
Meanwhile, Hackett wanted to see Valeria suffer a setback. He wanted her to lower her head and beg him.
Valeria had no way out now. She couldn’t tarnish the reputation of the law office.
The law office was Keith’s years of hard work, and its reputation had always been good. It couldn’t be ruined because of
Valeria.
However, facing such a group of s*c**bags, it was difficult for Valeria to walk away unscathed tonight.
It was clear that Valeria could leave with just a word from Hacke, but he was choosing to remain silent
Chapter 44
The others also wanted to curry favor with Hackett. All of them could tell that Hackett was deliberately making things difficult for Valeria.
Valeria turned around completely and looked at Hackett, who seemed to be uninvolved. She suddenly said, “Alright! I will go change into a swimsuit then!
In an instant, everyone was stunned.
Hackett suddenly raised his head and looked at Valeria. There was an obvious shock in his dark eyes.
Hackett did not expect Valeria to really agree.
With Valeria’s personality, it was impossible for her to agree to such an excessive request.
“However, I’ll only stay for ten minutes. I’ll talk with you and then leave. I don’t have time to accompany you all to this party. I’m just a lawyer.”
Valeria’s eyes were fixed on Hackett as she spoke.
Valeria knew that Hackett was deliberately making things difficult for her, so she would satisfy his perverted fetish.
“And where should I change into a swimsuit?” Valeria appeared quite casual as if she didn’t care at all.
Hackett’s jawline tightened. He leaned against the recliner and stared at Valeria as if he wanted to see through her.
Everyone was looking at Hackett’s expression. After all, they were just trying to curry favor with him. However, Hackett remained silent and refused to say a word.
Jim was stunned. Then, he smiled and said, “Hey, take Ms. Sharp to change into a swimsuit. This is the first time I’ve seen through a beautiful lawyer in a swimsuit. I’m looking forward to it.”
A young woman walked up to Valeria and said, “Follow me.”
Valeria did not even look at Hackett and followed the young woman.
The champagne glass in Hackett’s hand almost shattered.
Was this woman deliberately going against him? Wearing a swimsuit in a place like this where there were so many pe**rts? What an idiot!
“Mr. James, you’re amazing. This suggestion you came up with is really fun. I’m really looking forward to the swimsuit show from this beautiful lawyer, Jim remarked.
Hackett, who had been silent all this while, finally exploded. “Get lost!”
The man got up angrily and walked toward the villa area, leaving Jim’s smile frozen on his face. Jim was at a loss “Why are you shouting? Didn’t you want to see her in a swimsuit? Why are you angry?” Jim was full of grievances. Hackett entered the villa and grabbed a random servant. “Where did the female lawyer go to change her clothes?”
t room upstairs, but I’m not sure which room she went to Well… Mr. James, I think she went to the guest
Hackett headed straight upstairs.
If this idiot really changed into a swimsuit here, Hackett might really not be able to resist strangling her.

And at this moment.
Valeria was in the room, staring at the revealing swimsuit set and feeling troubled Did the really have to wear it?
Valeria had never worn such a revealing swimsuit before, but she was afraid that the would not be able to leave tonight if she
didn’t wear it.
And besides, Valeria absolutely couldn’t tolerate Hackett looking down on her
Only now did Valeria realize that this scumbag was really petty, domineering unreasonable, and liked to bully women
After hesitating for a while, Valeria finally decided to pick up the swimsuit and put it on
Suddenly!
With a bang, the door was suddenly pushed open.
Valeria subconsciously turned around and widened her eyes in panic. She screamed, “Aht Who let you in
Valeria quickly covered her upper body with her arms and retreated.
At this moment, Hackett stood outside the door with his hand on the doorknob. He was stunned on the spot
The moment Hackett pushed open the door, he did not expect such a scene to happen inside.
Valeria was wearing a provocative white swimsuit, extremely revealing to the point that it was almost like not wearing anything at all.
Valeria had fair skin, a graceful figure, slender and straight legs, gentle long curly hair that reached her waist, and a panicked expression….
Hackett’s Adam’s apple bobbed up and down, and a strong sense of possessiveness appeared in his dark eyes.
Hackett closed the door and locked it. He walked toward Valeria and roared, “You really changed into it! Are you st***d?”
Valeria kept retreating. “Don’t come over! Who let you in!”
/here was the young woman just now? Didn’t she agree to guard outside? Why did Hackett barge in?
Hackett looked at the s***y woman in front of him and could not help but lose his temper. “Put on your clothes! You’re not allowed to go out in this!”
“Are you crazy? You’re the one who asked me to change into a swimsuit. You’re also the one who’s asking me to put on my clothes now. What the hell do you want? You just don’t like me and want to bully me, right?”
