Eugene looked at Cole and offered a polite smile. “Mr. Murphy, are you saying you want my team and me to act as outside counsel for your overseas company?”

“Yes. Mr. Beaumont, is there a problem?” Cole replied.

Eugene shook his head. “None at all.”

Even so, the opportunity felt almost too convenient.

“Our team does have experience handling cross-border matters. However, I assumed your company would already have its own in-house legal department.”

Eugene had no intention of turning business away. He was simply curious how Cole had found him.

Cole shook his head lightly. “I trust you and your team. Some cross-border matters require someone who understands the local landscape.”

Eugene stopped holding back and signed the contract on the spot.

Adam was informed of the major deal almost immediately, prompting him to hurry over. “Mr. Murphy, thank you for choosing Beaumont Legal. Rest assured, Mr. Beaumont is among our top professionals, and his team will provide excellent service.”

Cole offered a faint smile, clearly not particularly enthusiastic toward him.

Still, he replied politely, “Certainly, I trust Mr. Beaumont’s team. Would you like to join us for dinner tonight? My treat. I plan to invite the entire team. Mr. Rowe, would you care to join as well?”

Eugene pressed his lips together. This feels familiar.

Then, it clicked.

Sebastian must have referred him. No wonder he keeps emphasizing “team.” The real target is my apprentice.

Eugene quickly recalled his apprentice’s year-end non-equity partner review. He responded, “Wonderful. Thank you in advance, Mr. Murphy. I’ll call everyone back to the office immediately.”

Cole smiled calmly. “No rush. Let them finish what they are working on first.”

Adam’s expression turned slightly strange.

Eugene’s luck is really running hot this year. A client of this caliber usually comes around once a year at most. Yet, he has encountered two major benefactors within the same year.

Unbelievable.

What more is there to say?

This time, he has left Chris in the dust.

When Serena heard the client was an overseas executive named Mr. Murphy, she immediately had a good idea who he really was.

Eugene said, “Serena, you must come tonight. I bet your husband referred him to us.”

She paused briefly. “Alright.”

She had no way to explain, so she allowed the misunderstanding to stand for now.

As for her mother’s side of the family, Serena honestly felt little attachment.

They were indeed blood relatives, but her mother had been out of contact for a long time. Her uncle’s unexpected return probably indicated he had uncovered the truth about her mother’s death.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gone after her father’s company. In a sense, he had even assisted

her.

At dinner, Serena finally met the refined man.

He didn’t have the sharp, commanding presence she anticipated. Instead, he was serene and steady, with a quiet steadiness that made him easy to approach.

What Serena didn’t realize was that Cole had intentionally made his presence gentler, trying to leave a positive impression on his niece.

“Mr. Beaumont, your team is brimming with young talent.”

Eugene promptly made the introduction. “You flatter us, Mr. Murphy. This is Serena Steele from our team. She is skilled in both non-litigation and civil-commercial matters”

Cole’s tone was gentle. “Nice to meet you, Ms. Steele.”

Serena rose at once. “Hello, Mr. Murphy.”

After exchanging polite greetings, Cole pointed to the menu. “I’ve heard the private kitchen here is quite renowned. Ladies first-why not pick a few of their signature dishes?”

Then, the menu was handed over to Serena.
