chapter 2 The dignified and self-loving Lawyer Huo

When Eloise entered the room, she saw Aunt Nguyen sitting on the sofa in a daze.
Her eyes were red, as if she had been crying.
Eloise looked around and was keen to ask, "What happened, Aunt Nguyen, where is dad?"
Aunt Nguyen was Eloise's Father's second wife.
After hearing Eloise's question, Aunt Nguyen couldn't help scolding.
"Liam Gu, the ungrateful wolf, is so cruel!"
"In the past few years when he was in his lowest state, you never left him. Now he had recovered and dumped you, and what's more, he even sent your father to prison. Your father is now in a detention center."
"Eloise, I told you that Liam Gu was not suitable for you, but you didn't listen."
…
Aunt Nguyen kept complaining.
Eloise was stunned for a moment and said, "Aunt Nguyen, don't worry, I... will ask Liam Gu."
Eloise thought that if they couldn't make it as a couple, there would always be old passion, so Liam Gu wouldn't leave no room for manoeuver.
She dialed the number and the person on the other end picked up quickly.
Eloise lowered her attitude, "Liam Gu, we have broken up. I beg you not to go hard with my father."
Liam Gu sneered.
He said， "For such a shortfall, someone has to be responsible."
Eloise still wanted to plead.
Liam changed the subject"There is another way, it depends on whether you are willing! Eloise, as long as you stay with me for five years, I will let Uncle Wen go."
Eloise was stunned.
She didn't expect that Liam Gu could be so shameless. He wanted his future and backer, and he also wanted to possess her body!
Eloise was so angry that she was trembling, "Liam Gu, you really make me disgusted!"
Liam smiled nonchalantly, "Don't you already know who I am?"
Eloise gritted her teeth.
She said, "I won't be your fancy woman! Liam Gu, don't even think about it!"
Liam chuckled softly, "Then prepare to hire a lawyer for Uncle Wen! Eloise Wen, don't blame me for not reminding you that for such a large sum he will be sentenced to at least ten years."
Eloise sneered, "I will hire the best lawyer!"
"You mean Michael?" Liam smiled calmly, "Eloise, have you forgotten that he is my future brother-in-law, and he will help you litigate?"
Eloise felt cold from head to toe!
Liam gently said, "Eloise, I'm waiting for you to beg me!"
…
Wen Eloise just hung up the phone, Aunt Nguyen cursed loudly.
"Son of a bitch!"
"He's dreaming! Our family will never send you to him, no matter whatever."
Aunt Nguyen shed tears as she spoke, "Lawyer Huo is the brother-in-law of this ungrateful wolf. How can we get him? Eloise, please think of a way."
Eloise Wen lowered his eyes.
After a moment, she said in a low voice, "I and this lawyer Huo know each other, let me give it a try."
Aunt Nguyen was a very sensitive woman.
She smelled alcohol on Eloise and saw the man's coat on her body, so she guessed what happened.
Aunt Nguyen did not criticize.

It was not easy for Eloise to meet Michael.
In the lobby of Jieying Law Firm, the front desk lady was politely declining her, "I'm sorry, madam, I can't let you in without an appointment."
Eloise regretted not accepting the business card last night.
She asked, "If I make an appointment now, when can I see Lawyer Huo?"
The lady at the front desk checked, "It will take half a month at the earliest."
Eloise couldn't help but feel anxious.
At this moment, the elevator door opened at the corner of the hall, and a man and woman walked out.
The man was Michael.
He was dressed in a black and white classic suit, so well-dressed that looked like an elite.
The woman was a lady in her early 30s with a hot figure.
Michael saw Eloise as soon as he got out of the elevator, but he walked the client to the door as if he didn't recognize her.
He carefully shook hands with the woman and said goodbye.
The woman's voice was charming, "Lawyer Huo, thanks to you this time. Otherwise how could I have successfully divorced and distributed property! You don't even know how stingy he is towards me after he has a new lover..."
Michael smiled lightly, "That 's what I should do."
The woman ventured, "Lawyer Huo, would you like to have a drink tonight?"
Eloise's eyes fell on the woman, feeling that most men couldn't refuse her beauty.
Michael was not an ordinary man.
He raised his hand to check the time and declined politely, "What a coincidence, I have a date tonight."
The woman was also sensible and knew that this lawyer Huo disdained her.
She said goodbye charmingly, then got in the car and left.
After Michael sent off the customers, then he stopped at the front desk.
He looked at Eloise and said, "You changed your mind?"
