At Sy Building.

The next morning, Liam asked Mian to call Luo and Daryl in his office.

“I want a warrant of arrest immediately before he could even think of escaping.” Liam instructed. He handed everything to Luo and Daryl so the two of them could cooperate and make quick progress in taking down Frank after he had collected solid evidence against him.

He would make sure the next trial for Gale would be the last one and what would follow next was the judge’s verdict of ‘not guilty’ and then release orders for Gale.

Daryl already left, but Luo stayed.

“Yes?” Liam asked.

“Should I accept Yao’s offer already?”

“Oh right. I almost forgot. Yes, do so because Lana will start working with them as soon as she gets her license.”

“They have actually revised the offer, but I feel like they will make me a slave as soon as I signed that contract.” Luo snorted, but then it was still a large amount of money so she was still going to take it happily.

“Noah will definitely make you work like a cow. But you said you love money so…” Liam added in a jest.

“Hmm, I don’t mind as long as there’s good pay. Besides… It’s not like he can force me to work ten folds against my wish…” Luo said with a smirk. She had her own ways not to be taken advantage of.

“So I guess I will work there first and build some good connections while Lana is still not there…” Luo said before standing up and left the room.

As soon as Luo went back to her office and seat, she made a call and contacted Noah’s assistant.

“Alright no problem. I will be there in an hour.” Luo replied on the other line before ending the call. She smirked on how the new owner of Yao legal firm was so desperate in getting more lawyers from Sy’s law firm.

She stood up and informed her secretary that she would be out to meet a client. She had done enough study about Noah Yu, but she had not met the man yet in person. She admired how the man reached the heights of success and gained power in the business world at a young age. But then, her loyalty still lay with Sy law firm because Liam had helped her a lot in the starting of her career and she became what she was just by his help so she owed him a lot.

At Yu building, Noah looked at his assistant Craig and said, “clear my schedule on the day of that case and get me a pass for getting inside the courtroom. I want to watch how Liam Sy is going to win the case of Gale Ming.”

He then closed the file in front of him and stood up, ready to leave with his assistant Craig to personally meet the lawyer they had heard a lot about and was said to be comparable with Liam Sy when she was inside the courtroom. The contract signing with her would be done in the private room of a restaurant that Craig had already booked.

They arrived there earlier than Attorney Luo. Noah had not yet seen Attorney Luo’s profile since he trusted his assistant Craig fully to select the best resource to poach for his legal firm and he had said that this woman could bring a lot of benefits to their group.

Soon the door opened and in came a young, tall and smart figure dressed a little… unusually. Noah looked at the conservatively dressed woman and frowned.

She wore a long-sleeved blouse, tucked in her below-the-knee A-line skirt, a real conservative but decent attire. She also wore eyeglasses while her long hair was neatly kept at the back with a black hair tie.

Noah couldn’t remember when he last saw a young woman dressed so conservatively, he got the impression that this woman would definitely be a little timid and shy in nature.

“Good afternoon, gentlemen,” she politely greeted the men sitting there.

Craig introduced Noah who offered his hand for a handshake but Luo ignored it and said, “Sorry Boss but I don’t shake hands. Can we get down directly to business because I have to make sure I wrap everything properly before leaving Sy legal firm and join you?”

Noah’s face darkened when his friendly gesture was declined. He took his hand back and grabbed the contract.

“It’s the hard copy of the contract sent to you by Craig.”

Luo grabbed and opened it then started to go through it.

“Why don’t the two of you grab some snacks while I read the contract once. Sorry, but I don’t sign any paper without properly reading every clause on it.”

“It’s the same content that I sent to you on mail,” Craig commented.

Luo stared at him and said, “I don’t sign papers if I don’t read them…”

Craig gulped while Noah watched Luo intently.

“Good thing you accepted our offer. I thought you could be someone who is most loyal to Sy legal firm?” Noah nonchalantly commented.

Luo chuckled, with eyes still on the doc.u.ments. She said, “I’m only loyal to money, Boss.”

She looked at him and smiled, “I should start calling you Boss right or do you prefer Sir?”

Noah heard her and squinted his eyes then said, “How do you call Attorney Sy?”

“Liam,” Luo plainly answered and shifted her eyes back on the paper she was reading.

“Well, you see we are very close so I call him by his first name but I think it will be awkward for me to call you by name, Mr. Noah, since our level of closeness is not the same. Let me call you Boss for now.” Luo remarked with a wink.

Craig almost choked while listening to the conversation of the two and ended coughing when he saw her winking at him so casually.

He knew for sure his Boss was trying to be tolerant for the time being since Attorney Luo had not signed the papers yet, but as soon as her signatures and seal appeared on that contract… He wondered if the woman could still dare wink like that in front of the boss.

“Everything looks perfect,” Luo commented as she grabbed her pen and scribbled her signatures there.

“You will do anything for money, right?” Luo heard Noah speak.

She tilted her head and met his piercing gaze. Luo was aware how Noah Yu was famous for being ‘a devil in disguise,’. She gave him a smile before she responded, “As long as it won’t get me into trouble, doesn’t send me to prison or touch the bottom line of my morality… Yes, ‘absolutely’ I will do anything with the right price.”

Luo then winked at him again.

Noah’s face became stern watching her do that and he said, “So, now that you have signed these papers you will have to follow whatever I say from now on, since you are now my employee. You can always leave but then as the contract says you have to pay a hefty sum for breaching the contract. And… stop winking at me, you make me uncomfortable!”

“Got it Boss.” Luo said with pursed lips followed by a nod.

“I will take my leave now.” Luo said and stood up.

“It’s written in the contract that I will start in two weeks so I guess I’m not your employee yet, huh?” Luo said with a smile followed by several winks before leaving the room..

Craig could no longer control himself as he burst in laughter but quickly shut his mouth when his Boss Noah glared at him with flaring nostrils!

“I will fire you if Luo will not give us the desired profits within a month!” Noah exclaimed to Craig.
