Yasmin was on edge, so she stayed in Tessa's office throughout the entire day.
She said everything she could to get Tessa to budge, but Tessa refused to do so.
Yasmin was practically one step away from getting down on both knees to beg Tessa.
"Ms. Yates, please be the bigger person and forgive me! Just pretend that I'm a bug and let me go, I beg you! If I get convicted and have my lawyer's license revoked, my life will be over!
"Ms. Yates, I'm begging you to drop the case. I'm willing to do anything for you, even if it means being at your beck and call!"
Tessa gave her a cold glance. "That's not necessary. Ms. Collins, there are countless professions out there, and there's a chance for everyone to succeed. Losing your lawyer's license wouldn't mean a thing. If you can't stay in this line of work, you can always just switch to another."
Tessa patted her on the shoulder and added flatly, "Good luck! I have faith in you!"
…
After getting off work, Tessa and her colleagues were leaving the firm together.
Suddenly, a female colleague beside Tessa tugged her sleeve and exclaimed, "Oh my God! Look at that exceptionally fine gentleman standing there!"
Tessa's other colleagues also glanced over and started whispering amongst themselves. She followed their gaze and immediately froze.
It was Stephen, standing tall and strikingly handsome. With his broad shoulders and long legs, he was like a walking work of art. The simple black Armani coat he wore looked even better on him than it would on a model.
He was leaning against his car while talking on the phone.
It was late autumn, and the sky had turned darker a little earlier than usual, so the streetlights were already lit up.
From where they were standing, Tessa could see his chiseled jaw and high-bridged nose.
The warm yellow light cast a soft glow on his face, softening the sharpness of his features and making him look much gentler.

Oh my god, when is this book finishing... they're not even back together yet and more nonsense side plots.....
Whoa! Hahahahahaha! Go, Sophia! Burn, stupid Rowena! Lol...
Sooo~ Chapters 310-318 were just a repeat of Jacqueline’s punishment, official expulsion from the Jacobson family, and arrest. With few changes since Tessa and Stephen are not together this time. So Tessa didn’t witness how Jacqueline was tortured at Stephen’s base, though at least Tessa was still called over and witnessed how Stephen officially expelled Jacqueline from the Jacobson family and how Stephen’s subordinate made Jacqueline grovel in front of Tessa. Lol. I hope Jacqueline’s really out of the story now....
Also a lot of chapters were missing here. I went back to the application where it was originally published that’s why i know that this site is not reliable...
Fucked up book! Seems like the authors were not talking to each other. LOL. Yes authors, because of the inconsistencies....
The story went downhill after pg200 1. Why is Jacqueline back… she was expelled from the family already 2. There was no reason for Rowena to be mad at Tessa 3. The Jacobson already knows that Stephen wants to get back witb Tessa after they deal with James, so why is Rowena pushing hard? LOL 4. The family also knows that Stephen and Nancy have some sort of deal. The story was okay from page 1-199, but clearly it’s a thumbs down. I can deal with grammatical errors, but story errors is just different now....
This is funny! Jacqueline was also the culprit why James knew that nancy was Stephen's cousin. So, really, what happened when steohen tortured jacqueline hahah...
I wonder how many authors does this book have? Suddenly jacqueline was back and continue to bad mouth tessa. And was stunned that tessa knows her feelings about stephen. And then rowena was freaking mad at tessa too; because there werw multiple instances that tessa sharp-tongued her. 🤣...
What is wrong with the story flow? At chapter 160-164 there’s this whole thing about Stephen revealing in front of all the Jacobsons family members about Jacqueline’s inappropriate feelings towards him and her involvement in murder. There’s even this “Just like that, Jacqueline was officially expelled from the Jacobson family. Stephen then promptly handed her to the authorities.” So I was already glad the bitch is out of the picture. And then suddenly at chapter 236, Jacqueline appears again like nothing happened, still being the adoptive daughter of the Jacobson family and the family being unaware of her feelings for Stephen. Seriously? Doesn’t make sense anymore....
The latest update is just a repetition of the previous chapters...
