Chapter 72: 072. Divorce Lawyer_1
As Robert Green emerged from his office, his secretary immediately stopped him, “Aide Green.”
“Hmm? What’s the matter?”
The secretary’s face reflected some difficulty as they said, “There’s a lawyer downstairs who wishes to see the president.”
“A lawyer?”
Robert’s eyebrows twitched slightly, “What lawyer?”
“They say it’s the lawyer handling madam’s divorce case.”
With a pained expression, the secretary relayed the front desk’s message, and upon hearing it, Robert also was startled, “You… you’re saying the madam’s lawyer has come to discuss divorce with President Jones?”
“Yes.”
Reluctantly nodding, the secretary couldn’t help but deeply admire the legendary madam for her audacity to divorce such a diamond bachelor like President Jones!
“Aide Green, could you… perhaps you should go in and let President Jones know.”
The secretary looked at Robert with pleading eyes, “Please, I beg you.”
Robert didn’t want to be a messenger of doom, but who could blame him for being an aide that understood the importance of cherishing the fairer sex?
Facing the pleading gaze of the secretary, he could only begrudgingly agree, “All right, I’ll go inform President Jones.”
“Thank you, Aide Green.”
The secretary breathed a sigh of relief and scurried back to their desk, while Robert bravely turned toward the CEO’s Office.
Clack, clack, clack—
From not far off came the sound of high heels striking the ground—an arrogant sound, much like the person wearing them, causing people to involuntarily frown.
Robert stopped in his tracks and looked up to see a tall woman with a briefcase in hand, her shapely figure wrapped in a beige professional suit.
Her complexion was fair, her lips fiery red, with neatly cut short hair swept back in an immaculate manner, giving her an air of extreme efficiency.
Her sharp gaze, filled with an undeniable haughtiness, swiftly scanned all those present before heading straight to the CEO’s Office.
Robert was taken aback by her commanding presence and didn’t come to his senses until she was close. Raising his hand, he blocked her path, “Miss, you can’t see our president without an appointment.”
The woman slowly shifted her gaze to his face and then to his arm blocking her way, and with a subtle lift of her red lips, she said, “Kid, I’m representing your lady boss right now. I have important matters to discuss with Adam Jones, so quit wasting my time and get out of the way.”
After speaking, she pushed Robert aside and went straight into the office.
“Miss…”
The woman had already entered Adam’s office. The unexpected interruption caused Adam’s brows to furrow slightly in displeasure as he lifted his gaze from the documents.
“President…”
“President Jones!”
The woman cut Robert off, and with the sharp click of her high heels, her voice unrestrained, she approached Adam.
“I am Elly’s representing lawyer, fully authorized to handle the divorce proceedings with you.”
She took out a white business card from her briefcase, which still carried a faint scent of perfume. With her fingers painted in bright red nail polish, she gently pushed the business card toward Adam and without asking, pulled a chair over to sit down in front of him.
Adam’s eyes lazily flickered, masking the chill gathering in them, and he waved Robert out of the office, then shifted his attention to the alluring woman before him, his sharp lips curving into a cool, thin smile.
“Elly sent you to talk about divorce with me?”
