 Sean leaned back slightly, deep in thought. “It seems the person behind all this has more power than we expected.”

 His fingers tapped absently on the edge of the desk. “Did you ask the Gibson family?”

 Sam nodded. “We did. Their response hasn’t changed. They im that Mr. Gibson had no idea Judy was pursuing you. ording to them, it was just a casual fling.”

 On Friday morning around 10 a.m., Lily Cook, head of the Litigation Department at S&G Law Firm, sent a message in thepany group chat.

 “Team dinner tonight! All litigation team members are wee to join. I’ll share the time and ceter in the group.”

 Not long after, Jenny messaged Charlotte directly.

 “Are you going to the dinner tonight, Miss Riley?”

 Jenny had always been close to Charlotte. Ever since Charlotte had saved her from a violent attacker, she had admired Charlotte deeply. She was practically bing her biggest fan. Later, Lily had even assigned Jenny to assist Charlotte full–time, and the two had since be real friends.

 Charlotte replied, “Yeah, I’ll go. I don’t have any ns after work anyway.” 

 Willy had already been formally arrested for criminal charges, and Yasmine who had spread false rumors, had been sued by Charlotte for defamation. After the court officially filed the case, Yasmine resigned voluntarily, too ashamed to stay at the firm.

 These days, the atmosphere at the office was pleasant, and Charlotte genuinely enjoyed working with her colleagues. Naturally, she was happy to join the dinner.

 Jenny quickly responded, “Yay! If you’re going, then I’m going too!”

 The dinner was held at a decent mid–range steakhouse. Afterward, someone suggested moving the party to a nearby bar.

 Charlotte hesitated for a moment. Lately, life had been so overwhelming–one stressful situation after another. She realized it might be good to let loose for once, 

 so she agreed to join them.

 They ended up at a quiet lounge bar. 

 Several coworkers drank and chatted, some exaggerating their stories andughing loudly. Charlotte was in good spirits and had a few drinks herself.

 Her alcohol tolerance, however, had always been low. After a few sses, her mind was already fuzzy.

 “I’m telling you–I’m the Queen of the Universe!” she slurred, cheeks flushed as she swayed on her feet. “Bow before me, mortals!” 

 A few colleagues were already passed out, heads on the table.

 Others, still sober, took out their phones and started recording,ughing.

 Jenny was among them.

 To be fair, she wasn’t sober because she had a strong tolerance. She simply didn’t drink. She had only <be to the bar to keep an eye on Charlotte, just in case 

 something happened.

 Good thing she did.

 Charlotte waspletely out of it after only a few drinks.

 Amused by her antics, Jenny pulled out her phone and started filming. Sheughed and yed along, “All hail Her Royal Highness!” 

 Charlotte giggled uncontrobly. “Let me tell you something. My husband–he’s the best husband in the whole world. You guys have no idea, He’s liked me for so long! Hehehe…”

 “Oh yeah?” Jenny grinned while recording. “Sounds sweet.”

 Charlotte leaned in like she was about to reveal a juicy secret. “You know, don’t be fooled by how hot my husband is. He actually…”

 Another still–sober coworker leaned in,ughing, “He actually what?”

 Charlotte burst into another round of drunken giggles. “Don’tugh, okay? But I think.. my husband might have a little problem in the bedroom.”

 “Pifi-!”

 At the bar counter, a strikingly handsome, slightly mboyant man sitting nearby nearly spit out his drink when he heard Charlotte’sst sentence,

 Afterughing hard for a good few seconds, he pulled out his phone and typed out a message.

 “So.. I heard you’re having some issues… In the bedroom?”
