"We could have resolved this internally. What's the point of involving the Latrell Lawyer Association?"
"The Latrell Lawyer Association has actually dispatched three investigative teams and eight inquiry groups to investigate me and Pamela! The entire industry is in an uproar! It's even trending on the hot search headlines!"
I was taken aback, not expecting the Latrell Lawyer Association to make such a big fuss.
Three investigative teams, eight investigation groups.
This scale was unprecedented.
Just hearing it was terrifying enough. You could imagine how Hans was feeling right now.
"Esther, stop playing dumb. Answer me!"
"Do you have any idea how bad this looks? You're completely ruining me!"
Usually, when Hans got angry, even if I was the one who had been wronged, I would immediately try to appease him and cheer him up.
But this time, his messages went unanswered, like stones sinking into the depths of the sea.
Realizing that I was furious this time, Hans began to feel a little panicked.
After a moment, his tone softened.
When you called me yesterday, I was stressed about the case I'm working on, so I spoke to you in a rude manner. Isn't an apology enough?"
