My dear lawyer novel Chapter 24

After a thrilling farm trip, Vivian went to work in a trance these days and made frequent mistakes at work.

Komatsu found that It was the fifth time for Vivian to be in a daze today, she can’t help but being concerned about her, "Manager, what's wrong with you?

"Ah? No, nothing. I'll check it out." Vivian was dazed.

"Manager, it's time for lunch." Komatsu reminded kindly.

What is wrong with the Manager, didn't she just check this morning.

Vivian saw the bill in her hand and realized that her mind was wandering. She said, "Komatsu, go for lunch first."

Komatsu looked at Vivian and asked her kindly, "Won't you come with us?"

"No, I have no appetite." Vivian shook her head.

When Komatsu saw Vivian really didn't want to go, she didn’t force her to go for lunch. Then she followed other colleagues.

Vivian pinched her brows and went back to the lounge, sitting quietly on the bench with her eyes closed.

Her brain has been hovering William's deep eyes.

She thought William would come to find her soon, but she came back three days later, and her initial panic gradually subsided.

No phone call, or a text message, her line of sight involuntarily fell on the screen of the mobile phone, is always black, like her mood enveloped with general black cloud.

-- Buzz.

A slight shaking sound woke the thoughtful Vivian. Her clear eyes fell on the mobile phone screen, and when she saw the familiar numbers, her palms trembled slightly and her mouth smiled a wry smile.

"Hello...." Vivian found an unspeakable strain in her voice.

"I've got the check ready. Take your things and exchange them, Vivian."

Willie's cold voice came from the other end of the phone. Despite the distance between the two of them, Vivian felt the chill spread through her body, and her fingertips felt pale as she held the phone.

She collected herself and forced herself to calm down, her voice still tightened. "Ok, I see."

There was silence on the other end of the line for a few seconds. Every second was torture for Vivian, and even the feeling of suffocation gave her an illusion.

She was like a condemned man waiting to die.

"Vivian, you really make me have a completely new appraisal of you." William's calm voice was like a sharp blade stuck in Vivian's heart. It hurt, but it was also sad beyond words.

Vivian pushed her nails into her palms as if she didn't understand his sarcasm. "If nothing else, I’ll hang up." she said in a cool, almost emotionless voice.

The next second, there was only a blind tone on the other end of the line.

He thought Vivian might have her own difficulties, but now it seemed that she really just wanted the money.

As William's assistant, Leo, saw his boss gloomy face from the cracks in the door, consciously took back the copy which was ready to be sent up.

He had better not touch the boss’s minefield.
