Hester raised her hand to tuck her hair behind her ear. She looked at Derek indifferently and didn't take his words seriously.
Hester chose to be a lawyer because she wanted to help the weak. She had thought that she would meet such a situation today, and she had practiced it for a long time. She didn't expect that she could use it today.
"Thank you for your kind reminder, Mr. Derek. I'm just alone. There was a Chinese saying that one person could eat and run away without worrying the whole family. I'm not a long-term person. What you said is too illusory. It's not appropriate to only pay attention to the present. "
Derek's eyes twinkled and he lay on the sofa casually. There was no change in the calm expression on Derek's face. He was stroking the jade ring in his hand.
The shine all sparkled on his body, All the beautiful words could not be too much on him. Unfortunately, the person in front of her was not that simple.
Derek's slender and white fingers moved slowly. Against the jade ring, he looked more and more breathtaking.
"Miss Hester is a smart woman. Of course you won't do anything stupid, but sometimes you won't do something stupid without a clear understanding of the situation. Everyone has his or her weakness. This is my principle. For you, I will not change this idea. "
Under such a meaningful gaze, Hester's body stiffened uneasily. Hester put her hands on her knees stiffly and pressed her chin tightly.
Hester had just fought with Anna in the court. She didn't want to deal with this man again. Somehow, she felt a little tired. She sighed helplessly and looked up at Derek.
"Mr. Derek, if it's just because of these two things today, I have understood it exactly. If there is nothing else, I will leave now. "
"Although my house is not as big as the Imperial Palace, no one can't come and go freely."
Derek narrowed his eyes dangerously and said lightly. Derek's long legs were placed aside in a wanton posture, and he didn't loo
ed out and pulled the corner of Austin's clothes. The feeling made Austin comfortable.
"I'm fine!"
Sighing helplessly, Austin raised his hand and gently stroked her hair. The cold expression on his face gradually eased and returned to the previous warmth.
With a flash of his eyes, Austin suppressed all the strong emotions in the bottom of his heart. Only when Austin heard she said those three words in a low voice did he feel real.
"I know!"
"I know you're still with me. I know you're fine. I know it's true." Austin thought.
His fingers fell on her wrist with red marks and gently stroked it. When he touched the slightly raised scar, he frowned and quickly withdrew his hand as if it was hot.
Austin looked a little flustered and looked up at Derek, who had been silent all the time. He took a deep breath and protected Hester behind.
"Mr. Derek, why do you ask Hester to come here?"
Derek glanced at Hester's wrist and raised his eyebrows. Derek's handsome face was unfathomable, and his dark eyes were bottomless.
"I just appreciate Miss Hester. I want her to be the legal counselor of our company! By the way, I want to teach her some rules. When something happens, you should shrink back from difficulties. Don't keep moving forward. You hurt yourself and others! "
"She doesn't need!"
