Chapter 128: Trying to Annoy Her Ex-Boyfriend Away!
Elias Spencer indeed wanted to reconcile with her and had tried hard, even though she had so many flings with Ian Sterling, he never gave up.But she didn’t care about him at all.
Summer Nolan watched his departing figure, unconsciously furrowing her brows slightly. Just let it be, he’s going to tend to his female assistant.
She quickly finished the contract, left the law firm, and went to the Lauder Group, which is only about a half-hour drive from the firm.
Lauder is indeed worthy of being an international luxury group, with its bright and stylish interiors. Every employee is full of energy, chattering away, yet everyone is talking about business. They all dress fashionably and uniquely, completely free from the staid suits and ties.
Working in a place like this should be very fulfilling and motivating, Summer thought to herself.
The receptionist led her to the door of Chairman Spencer’s office, lightly knocked, and pushed the door open. Behind the desk sat a mature, composed, and cold middle-aged man.
Beside him stood an elegant middle-aged woman, Mrs. Spencer.
"Hello, Chairman Spencer, Mrs. Spencer," Summer walked in wearing her crisp high heels, greeting them.
Jason Spencer looked over, his gaze appraising her up and down. She wore a black business suit dress, exuding ambition within her professionalism, with a strong aura and calmness. She didn’t behave obsequiously like others, and her appearance was impeccable.
It was quite admirable.
Summer noticed the way Chairman Spencer inexplicably scrutinized her, furrowing her brows slightly. Does signing a contract require compatibility?
But to be honest, why did Elias Spencer and this Chairman Spencer look somewhat alike?
Must be a coincidence, right?
If his parents were these two people, then he should be working in his family’s group, inheriting the family business, not needed to become a lawyer and compete with Raymond Dawson for a law firm.
"Have a seat," Jason Spencer said in a deep voice.
Summer sat on the opposite side of the desk, took the contract out of her bag, and handed it over, "Chairman Spencer, please take a look."
He took it in hand, opened it, glanced through it, and asked her, "How old are you this year, Attorney Nolan?"
"If Chairman Spencer doesn’t trust me, there’s actually no need to sign the contract to avoid unpleasant cooperation later."o leave?"
"Because you have fewer shares and just joined the firm. Do you think those employees would support you?" he asked.
"Sorry, I’m not leaving just because you want me to. If Attorney Spencer isn’t willing to coexist peacefully with me, then we can only become enemies. I don’t mind really collaborating with Raymond Dawson," Summer said sternly.
"You just used Raymond Dawson and secretly framed Sean Sterling, and you think they would tolerate you?" Elias Spencer raised an eyebrow and asked.
Is he threatening me? Summer looked at him, quietly gritted her teeth, feeling a stab in her chest like a sudden needle prick, slightly painful,
"Then go tell them."
"..." Elias Spencer slightly furrowed his strong brows. Why was she so stubborn this time?
The conference room door was pushed open at this point, Ian Sterling came in holding a cup of coffee, looking curiously at the tense atmosphere between them.
Did they have a fight?
Over what?
Whatever it was, it’s good for him!
"I brewed a cup of coffee, take a break after working for a while," he placed the coffee in front of her.
"Thank you," Summer said to him.
"Join me for a few drinks tonight, will you? So much has happened at Summit lately, I’m in a bad mood," Ian Sterling intentionally asked her in front of the other man, wanting to take the opportunity to drive him away.
"Sure," she just wanted to get along well with Ian and obtain the account book, forgetting she had also agreed to Mrs. Spencer.
-
Before leaving work, Ian called her, saying he would be late, needing to deal with some last-minute work.
Just after hanging up, Mrs. Spencer called again, saying she was waiting for her in a private room at the White Horse Clubhouse. Only then did Summer remember she also had an appointment with Mrs. Spencer.
It’s not good to back out from either side now, maybe she could have Ian come for a few drinks as well?
On the way, she bought some McDonald’s to eat, then drove to the clubhouse.
In the luxurious large private room, Elias Spencer was called over by his mother. The room was already filled with several people, all business circle bosses.
"Why did you invite so many people?" he sat down next to his mother and asked.
