Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love
The woman in sunglasses looked towards Flossie. She emanated coldness, and it was a coldness that was very familiar to
Flossie.
It was almost exactly like the coldness Halston exuded!
Were incredible people all ice cubes in nature?
If that was the case, Flossie wanted to melt them even more!
“I finally get to meet you, Miss Lee! I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time. This bouquet is for you!”
Flossie enthusiastically handed the flowers to Sandra.
“Flossie Ellsworth?”
The woman stopped and asked coldly.
“That’s right. I’m your new boss.”
Sandra pulled her sunglasses down a bit, looked Flossie up and down, and said disdainfully, “I hate carnations!”
“You don’t like them?”
Flossie’s hand froze in mid–air. She looked slightly embarrassed. “Zack said purple carnations are your favorite. Looks like that guy doesn’t know you at all. I’ll punish him when I get back!”
“Then what flower do you like? I’ll get a new bouquet for you immediately…”
Sandra pushed her sunglasses up, lifted her chin, and said in a condescending tone. “No, he’s right, I used to like purple carnations, but when I saw you holding them, I started to hate them.”
“…”
It was like a slap to Flossie’s face.
Flossie felt so embarrassed that her curling toes could make holes in the ground.
If it was anyone else being so rude, Flossie would have long retaliated.
But the person was the elite beauty of the legal industry, Sandra Lee. Flossie only felt that she was so cool, so arrogant, so dashing! She loved it!
“It’s okay, you can hate me, but the flowers are innocent, so please don’t hate the flowers. These beautiful carnations will cry if you hate them…”
Flossie shamelessly continued to hand the large bouquet of carnations to Sandra.
The pair of beautiful eyes hidden under the sunglasses currently had a complicated emotion in them.
After a long time, she disdainfully pursed her lips. “I can’t believe Halston’s ex–wife has such thick skin. Do you not understand rejection? Can you not see when someone hates you?”
“Let me make things clear. I don’t like flowers, and I sure as hell don’t like you. Your behavior can already be considered harassment. I’ll pursue legal action if necessary.”
After saying that. Sandra walked past Flossie with her chin up like a proud peacock.
Seeing the woman walk away, Flossie was not mad at all. She merely shrugged helplessly. The look on her face could only be described as… “loving“!
“What about Jane?”
Flossie suddenly raised her voice and asked.
Sandra’s tall figure paused for a while before turning back to Flossie. “What did you say?”
“Do you hate Jane too?”
Flossie asked again.
Sandra took off her sunglasses and glared at Flossie with hostile eyes. She asked coldly, “You investigated me?”
“Of course.”
Flossie admitted honestly. “You’re my lawyer. Of course I investigated you.”
“I’m not your lawyer. I came back to cancel my contract. From now on, I no longer have any relationship with the Guajardos and Co. Law Firm, and I definitely won’t be working for you.”
Sandra’s attitude was firm.
She only joined the Guajardos and Co. Law Firm because of Halston Guajardo in the first place. Otherwise, there was no way a person of her talents would work in a place like that.
Now that the firm had changed hands, she naturally would not stay.
Although she had to pay a huge contract termination fee, the amount was a piece of cake for her.
Flossie nodded calmly. “We all have our ambitions, so I respect your choice. But before you terminate your contract, I, as your current boss, would still like to do something for you…”
As she said that, she took out her phone, played a video and handed the phone to Sandra.
“What’s this…?”
Upon seeing the video’s content. Sandra’s cold eyes actually softened..
–
Flossie said, slowly, “This video was taken on your daughter’s sixth birthday. It should have been a long time since you last saw her. I heard she’s very talented. She’s good at all sorts of things the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting… She’s also inherited your talent as a lawyer. She’s read various law books at a young age and is something of a little legal specialist at her school. She…”
“Stop!”
Sandra looked away, her eyes regaining their former indifference. She looked forward expressionlessly. “I gave her up for adoption, so she has nothing to do with me anymore. How talented she is doesn’t concern me.”
“But you’re surprisingly resourceful. To think that you managed to find out about my personal secret… You can expect a legal letter from me soon!”
Flossie ignored Sandra’s fierce threat.
She was also about to become a mother herself, so she knew better than anyone that there was no mother in the world who did not love her child.
The more indifferent and heartless Sandra Lee appeared to be, the more it showed that the child had a soft spot in her heart…
Flossie’s lips curled into a smile absentmindedly. She could definitely win over Sandra Lee!
She slowly walked closer to Sandra and asked, “Miss Lee, aren’t you curious what Jane’s birthday wish was?”
Sandra’s expression changed slightly, but it was quickly replaced by cold indifference.
“The birthday wish of a person who has nothing to do with me naturally has nothing to do with me too. Don’t think you can get. me to work for you by using these petty tricks.”
“No, no, no.”
Flossie said with a meaningful smile, “I just have a better understanding of how a mother thinks, that’s all…”
“It’s fine if you’re not curious about Jane right now. Feel free to ask me anytime you’re curious.”
Flossie raised an eyebrow and said, “Jane and I are practically besties. We get along really well!”
“Besties?”
Envy flashed across Sandra’s eyes for a split second.
But it was soon gone, like she had woken up from a dream. She said disdainfully. “How childish!”
Flossie was not angry. On the contrary, she could understand Sandra’s feelings.
Because she had used some special means to find out private information about Sandra that no one knew.
Six years ago, Sandra Lee was just a small time lawyer. No one was willing to entrust her with a case. She was often too poor to even pay for food.
But at such a difficult time, she suddenly got pregnant. No one knew who the father was.
Sandra quietly gave birth to the baby and took on the role of both the father and the mother. She did her best to raise her daughter until the age of one, but in the end, she steeled her heart and gave the child to a family of intellectuals to raise. After that, she vanished…
When she reappeared years later, she was already a famous lawyer. She worked in the Guajardos and Co. Law Firm and her main job was to handle commercial lawsuits for the H Group, and she was incredibly good at it!
There were rumors that Halston and her had an unusual relationship. Some even said Halston established the Guajardos and Co. Law Firm just for Sandra.
If that was true, it could be said that Sandra rose to prominence thanks to Halston’s backing.
If Sandra wanted to further her relationship with Halston, she naturally could not expose the fact that she had a child, so she ruthlessly pretended that the child had never existed…
Of course, all of this was just Flossie’s speculation.
She hoped the outstanding Sandra Lee was not someone who would be blinded by love like that.
Even if she was, she should switch target because Halston Guajardo was not worth it!
