11-Unexpected Corporation

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Maya is at the desk, checking whether there are any omissions in the agreement document given to the client. This kind of work requires concentration and meticulousness, but it is also boring and makes people feel sleepy. She supported her chin with her left hand, trying to hold on to one point and one point to look down. It's been over a month since the investigator was found and hired to investigate Jason's movements. During this period, she received some photos that she didn't even want to see, and she bascially knew what Jason had been doing. But the time has not been right. During this period, Jason's crazy phone calls came several times. When can there be a little change? The words on the screen in front of her eyes began to become crooked, Maya woke up startled, and found that she had been staring at the same line for a while. She stretched her waist to wake herself up a bit, and then went back to the text, trying to focus, and continue

12-A Small Lie

It was more than an hour before the time Jerry said. While packing up her things, Maya was thinking about what kind of image she should appear in and what kind of preparations she should make. First of all, she cannot show up too early. Gotta give them time to let the scene get chaotic. Only by appearing suddenly in the chaos will there be enough impact to see Jason's most authentic reaction. Moreover, if she arrived too early, it would be blatantly telling others that she went there with a plan. Also, it has to be in a hurry. Rush over from where she lives? Or from the office? Maybe home is better, after 9:00, even if there is work, it’s time to take it home and deal with it. Eat well in advance. Once she sees Jason, she will definitely have negative emotions, and it may take a lot of energy to argue. If she was still hungry when that happened, it would be too miserable. Pour out the remaining water in the cup, put the computer in the bag, and take the book "Zen and the Art of Mot

13-A Broken Marriage

When the two talked, Maya vaguely listened to the general idea, feeling disgusted and inexplicably wanting to laugh. Indecent is indecent, yet they had such a unique way of saying it without saying it, as if instead of setting loose their darkest desire, they are actually enduring the humiliation and mading it difficult for themselves to expand their business and develop customers. Can the two of them really convince themselves? Shouldn't they be praised, worthy of being lawyers, they are indeed unique in the use of language? From this point of view, in his last life, the high income that Jason got early, including the millions he hid, was obtained through such occasions, the clients here? When she thought that she had spent so much money and lived ignorantly for four years, Maya felt huge absurdity. Ridiculous and disgusting. She bit her teeth, frowned, took out her mobile phone, took a dozen photos of Jason and the environment around him, and put the mobile phone into the pocket

14-Right and Wrong

"I do have a few more words to say." The conflict was interrupted, and it was not easy to return to that tense situation. Maya quickly regained her train of thought - there were still some questions that Jason needed to answer with a few more words. She quietly clenched her fists with both hands and told herself: There is nothing to be angry about, and there is nothing to feel wronged for. Isn’t the purpose of coming here today to suffer some grievances, to leave some evidence, and to have an explanation when explaining to family, friends, and lawyers in the future? It's just that Jason's performance is worse than expected, there is no fundamental difference. Repeating these silently, she restrained herself and didn't touch the air pod hidden under her hair on the right side. Then, she took a deep breath, took two steps towards the less smoky place outside, turned her head, and took a deep look at Jason and his friend with a provocative meaning: "However, there is no need to open a

15-Utter Fear

Damian's presence was too astonishing. Neither Maya nor Jason could react in time. Maya was simply surprised, so surprised that she was overwhelmed. Jason, on the other hand, seemed impatient with "trouble is coming" written on his face. Countless questions and thoughts flashed across Maya's mind in an instant. Why is Damian here? He also came to participate in this kind of events? Are all the crazy things Jason said just now were true? Anyone who wants to be successful in this world has to dance with the chaos and filth? Damian, too???! Instinctively, she felt that this was impossible, but the fact that she couldn't find an exp

16-A Hard Question

Maya went out, striding towards the elevator.Behind him, Jason could be vaguely heard shouting angrily: "You are my fucking friend, can you let go of your desire to educate everyone and actually BE a fucking friend?!"Damian quickly followed Maya. They entered the elevator together, closed the door, and watched the elevator floors jump down one by one. Then, with a "ding", the elevator door opened and the lobby arrived.And Maya's breath finally calmed down.Her mind was full of doubts.Why is Damian here? Did he come for her and Jason?But how did he know they were here?Did he know they were arguing before he came?

17-His Standpoint

"But you are sad right now." The lights outside the car window changed, and Damian's voice was flat and crisp, saying these words seemed to be no different from reading a passage of law. But this is almost the gentlest voice she has ever heard since she was reborn.She remembered that she had agreed with Sophia that Damian was like a robot. But now, this "robot" has a lot more heart than the flesh-and-blood "man" she married, making her can't help but want to grab him as a life-saving straw, hold on to him firmly, and gain support.But that is not right.The consequences of entrusting her life to another person last time are still vivid in her mind. What's more, with the secret of rebirth, she must be cautious in every move.Maya straightened her sitting position and cle

18-Change of Attitude

Maya's weekend was a bit uneasy.On the one hand, she was happy that she had obtained evidence of Jason's cheating and violence, but on the other hand, she felt guilty for deceiving Damian. It felt like... if she wasn't happy about being able to divorce, it would be a little less deceiving to Damian.She was fidgeting with this absurd emotional split. In the end, she simply went out with her computer on her back, found a coffee shop, dug out the framework template of the prenuptial agreement, and made the first draft of the agreement for Mr. Ryan's case.Extra work on the weekends got her an over-the-top affirmation from her superior on Monday. Sophia clapped her hands together like a seal, as happy as if Maya had completely settled the case."You are amazing. My dear, y

19-The Real Problem

The client's home is in a high-end apartment building in the city center. A large penthouse on the 19th floor.The living room is simple in black, white and gray, and there are no more colors in the artwork decoration on the wall. Most of the furniture is cold and hard metal, with sharp edges and corners, sharp and ostentatious.It is very consistent with the customer's clothing style.Client's fiancée Emma is very different. She was wearing a long linen dress in primary colors, with long curly hair like small wool, and the makeup on her face was mainly warm orange, making her look dreamy.The voice of this dreamy fiancée was also a little psychedelic: "Hi, nice to see you again." She saw Maya and Damian, stood up to say hello, and introduced a less dreamy

20-Surprise Solution

Said that, Maya lowered her head and sent a message to Sophia: The customer took the initiative to increase the billable man-hours, and I found a way to finish the work as soon as possible. I want to simplify the process, is that okay?For half a minute, Sophia didn't reply.Maya called and reminded her to read the messages.Sophia laughed loudly on the phone: "This case is entrusted to you, you can do whatever you want.""Okay." Maya replied firmly, and hung up the phone.Then, she turned to Ryan and tilted her head: "Mr. Ryan, can you explain to me, under what circumstances did Emma request to amend the terms of the prenuptial agreement?"When Ryan returned to the couch, he lay
