“Gary, Gary!” Marian screamed at the top of her voice, making Gary tremble where he was. Marian knew very well that it was Lydia who brought Gary home, but she was screaming so loud to create a scene.“Gary, who brought you home?” Marian asked, but Gary was already crying because of the shock Marian had caused on him. “Marian, why are you screaming so loud?

“Mr. Carson, thank you so much. I don't know what I would have done without you. It's not as if we are related or something. You just made many sacrifices for myself and Helen.

When Lydia got into Rw, she met with the receptionist. The building alone got Lydia anxious. She trusted Carson, but she wondered what the CEO would say about her when he found out that her name was on the blacklist. She cannot be employed. Still, she pushed herself to the receptionist's desk, “Hello, Good Morning. I am Lydia Darling. I have an interview with the CEO of RW Enterprise”“Sorry, an interview, you said?” The receptionist asked, confused. The CEO isn't the one who interviews, so she was surprised. “Yes, the CEO. You can call him to inform him that Lydia Darling is here” Lydia replied confidently.“I'll do just that” the receptionist replied as she picked up her phone to make a call.

Lydia couldn't wait to get home before she related the news to Carson, so instead she made her way to his office. Getting into the large building, she asked the lady behind the table that she wanted to see Attorney Carson “Do you have an appointment with him?” “Actually, not really. I just had something really important to tell him” Lydia explained, but the woman shook her head. “I'm sorry, ma. Or else you have an appointment with him, you cannot see him. Mr. Carson is a very busy man. You can't just see him whenever you like” Lydia pressed her lips together because she knew what the lady was saying was true to certain people, but not to her. She was a special one. Carson had always given her his time. Mostly at night whenever everyone else was asleep.“Can you just tell him that Lydia is here to see him?” She asked and the lady frowned“You don't seem to get it. I don't care who you are, Mr. Carson is unavailable. He will not attend to you, even if he slept with you just a night

You are… so are you ready?” Lydia asked back, making Carson chuckle. “I've never been this ready” he replied, making Lydia smile. She picked up her glass and had a sip from it. “But are you ready to face George? You know what I always say, having confidence is winning half the case” “I am. I'm ready to face him and w
