Mnte was quiet for a moment before she eventually replied, “Okay,”
After informing Xander and the others, Mnie went out with her luggage she did not let them apany her so that she could have some quiet time to think things over
Lee arrived not long after. He got out of the car and opened the back door for Manis while taking her luggage to the trunk.
Mnie was not surprised to <b>see </b>Eugene when she got into the car since he had to go to Oskon City too. On the other hand, there was a barely discernible twitch in Eugene’s brow when he saw Mnie’s pale face.
“Do you have anything on Jackson?” Mnie asked without looking at Eugene as if she had not noticed his gaze.
“Lee will give you <b>a </b>file with <b>his </b>recent movements and some of his preferences,” Eugene replied.
Mnie nodded and turned to Lee<b>, </b>who had just gotten into the car. “Give it to me now. We still have some time before reaching the airport.”
Lee subconsciously nced at Eugene. Seeing no objection from him, Lee took out a file from his briefcase and handed it to <b>Mnie</b>.
After thanking Lee, Mnie threw herself into the file entirely as if there was nothing else in the world worthy of her attention. Eugene did not disturb her. He lowered his head and looked at his phone. He appeared to be chatting with someone.
The atmosphere in the car was quiet, only filled with the sound of Mnie flipping through the pages and Lee’s subdued breathing as he drove.
Suddenly, a voice message came from Eugene’s phone. “Mr. Scott<b>, </b>regarding this case…”
It was Zara’s voice.
Mnie looked up. “Are you chatting with Miss Henson<b>?</b>”
“Yeah.” Eugene calmly turned off his phone. “It’s about a previous case at LeapCo.<b>” </b>
Mnie lowered her gaze and said nothing more. After a while, shemented<b>, </b>“<b>She’s </b>a very responsiblewyer.”
Eugene responded nonchntly, “She’s a topwyer at Navair Law Firm. What else would you expect?
“That’s why I’m grateful to you,” Mnie <b>said </b>with no intention of further conversation. She then shifted her gaze to the night outside with pursed lips.
“What are you thanking me for?” Eugene looked at her profile.
There was a pause, <b>“</b><b>The </b><i>ride</i><i>,</i>”
Eugene raised a brow slightly, a faintugh escaping his throat. It was barely audible to Mnie
By the time they arrived in Oskon City, it was already veryte. They went straight back to the hotel they stayed in before. When they were checking in, they found out that only the suite <b>on </b>Eugene’s floor was avable. Exhausted, Mnie did not protest and epted it.
The next morning, just as Mnie was getting ready to leave<i>, </i>there was a knock on the door. Lee was waiting outside. “Mr. Scott asked me to remind you that you can leave now”
Jackson’s ne did not arrive until ten, and luckily, there had not been any dys. They did not rush to intercept Jackson as they had already coordinated everything with his assistant. Both parties would have a brief meeting. Of course<b>, </b>only ten minutes had been allotted.
Jackson did not resemble Harvey at all. His appearance and personality were simr–a square face, thick eyebrows, and a wheatishplexion. It made him appear unapproachable. Apanied <b>by </b>his assistant, Jackson made his way toward them directly.
Mnie adjusted her demeanor and took out the prepared documents before jumping straight to the point. “Hello, Mr. Lowe. I’m from Burning Star Studio’s business department.
“Here are the details of the coboration between Burning Star Studio and LeapCo. We’d like to show
them to you.”
The assistant took the documents from her while Jackson seemed unfazed, his sharp gaze scrutinizing her. “Xander’s studio?”
“Yes, w-
Before she could finish her sentence<b>, </b>they were interrupted by <b>a </b>girl running toward them from a distance. She was joyfully shouting, “Daddy<b>!</b>”
The girl was running so <b>fast </b>that she was unable to stop herself in time. Mnie turned around, and before she could even react, the girl crashed into her.
