Elisa did not move.
Anita Golding looked at her phone and frowned when she saw an incoming call. She turned to Elisa. “Please excuse me for a moment. I have to answer this call.”
Elisa nodded.
She could not hear the phone conversation.
But Anita’s expression darkened considerably, prompting Elisa to arch an eyebrow and wonder if something had happened to her son again.
There shouldn’t be any issue with Brandon. Could something else have gone wrong?
“I understand.”
Anita hung up right after that.
Elisa looked at her curiously. “Is your son…”
“No.”
Elisa breathed a sigh of relief. After all, she could not guarantee she had full control over Brandon.
Anita looked at Elisa and said awkwardly, “Ms. Benett, I… I might have to request your help.”
Although she had always been direct, it was not easy for her to ask someone for help.
Elisa was surprised. “What happened? As long as it’s within my abilities, I’ll help you.”
“I need you to fight a lawsuit for me.”
Elisa looked at Anita closely. “What kind of lawsuit?”
Anita breathed in softly and said, “Let’s have our dinner first.”
Elisa nodded and knew Anita was embarrassed. Since Elisa did not want to ruin her appetite, she did not say anything and focused on the meal.
