A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently -
Chapter 98 Contract Signed
The two men quickly looked at each other.
Eden said, "Hi, Ms. Audrey. My name is Eden, deputy general manager of the QH Limited. This is my assistant, Aaron."
Aaron? In fact, this man was the general manager of the QH Limited. But now, he pretended to be Eden's assistant.
Audrey once saw Julian and Aaron dining together. She knew that they were classmates and best friends back in college. Otherwise, Audrey would be fooled by Eden this time. Aaron and Julian were close, and Aaron must be plotting something, since he came to her so abruptly.
Audrey smiled, "Is there anything I can do for you?"
The two men looked at each other again.
Aaron looked a little portly and he took out a contract.
Aaron said, "Ms. Audrey, we are involved in a financial dispute with another company. This is our letter of litigation, and we need you to sign on it."
Aaron flipped directly to the last page. He passed her a pen and was waiting for her to sign.
Audrey raised her eyebrow and was about to check on the contract.
But before she could reach it, Aaron covered them by his hand and looked alert.
"Ms. Audrey, there is no need reading it. Because Mr. Steele already checked on it and he approved. All you need to do is to sign on it." "Really?" Audrey smiled lightly.
The two men sat there and looked serious. Eden smiled and said, "Of course. If you don't believe me, you can check with Mr. Steele right now." Audrey paused and seemed figuring out something.
They must offered Freddy a good price over this case. Therefore, he only read through the contract roughly and didn't replace any problems and agreed on it. Somehow, Audrey had a feeling that the contract they presented to her wasn't the same one as they showed to Freddy.
They wanted to fool her.
Audrey sneered deep down.
With a knowing smile, she said, "I see. Since Mr. Steele already agreed on it, I will just sign it."
Eden said with joy, "Yes, please."
Audrey picked up the pen, and then the contract was signed and sealed.
"OK, done." Audrey covered the contract with one hand. She smiled and reached out the other hand towards Eden, "Mr. Eden, It's a pleasure doing business with you." Eden stared at the contract and looked excited, and they shook hands.
"My pleasure, too."
He hurried to take the contract back and answered quickly.
Eden and Aaron looked at each other with joy since their plot had been carried out successfully.
"Ms. Audrey, we still have lots of works to do back in the office, so we have to go now. And let's make another appointment for the details of the case."
Audrey nodded, "Alright, then, another day."
They walked out the reception room and left the firm.
Since Audrey brought in more businesses after she joined Square Law Firm, the office was getting busier than ever before.
As Audrey was seeing Eden and Aaron off at the gate, the others in the office started chatting.
"Ms. Audrey is a true blessing to our firm. Now, she keeps bringing in new cases, and we are getting rises too."
"Exactly! Those are all major cases and were considered 'mission impossible'. But she always managed to win and bring the firm back to life."
"Even Mr. Bryson from the Cordova Group has invited Audrey to be their consultant lawyer and the contract is signed today."
"Really? Consultant lawyer for the Cordova Group!"
"Ms. Audrey is awesome."
Liana picked up a pile of contracts and stood up. She walked by and said coldly, "Stop gossiping, don't you have works to do?"
She walked by in her high heels.
After she left, they started chatting again.
"Why is she looking so gloomy today?"
"Don't you know why?"
"Why?"
"Audrey won the lawsuit that Liana had been working on. Liana tried for a long time yet still couldn't win it. But Audrey did it, right after she joined our firm. This must be so embarrassing for Liana. I mean, how can she stand for it?"
"That was yesterday's news. I got something juicier. I heard that Ms. Liana's husband was cheating on her and they are getting a divorce."
"What? Ms. Liana's husband.... That's why she wears such a long face every day."
"I can see why. Everyone would be the same in her situation."
Although they discussed in a low voice, but Liana heard all of their conversation.
Listening to the gossip, Liana felt furious.
She had never been in such embarrassing situation. But, ever since Audrey came to the firm, everything went wrong with her. She kept losing lawsuits and now even her husband cheated on her. Audrey was like a jinx to her.
....
After work, people started leaving the office and so did Audrey.
Liana also left, but then she returned.
The cleaning lady was a little surprised to see her.
"Ms. Liana, why are you back? Did you forget something?"
"Yeah, I forgot something." Liana replied.
"You'd better check if they are still there."
"Sure." Liana was about to walk in, but the cleaning lady was standing next to Audrey's desk. So, she said, "I heard something fell off in the bathroom just now."
Hearing that, the cleaning lady put down the work in hand and walked towards the bathroom.
When she returned, Liana was standing next to Audrey's desk.
The cleaning lady said, "Nothing fell off."
"Maybe I heard wrong." Liana smiled and walked to the door, "I am leaving now, see you tomorrow." "See you tomorrow!"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
