The second Timothy and Jimmy saw Tessa, their eyes lit up in delight.
Timothy leered at her and asked, "And who might this be?"
William discreetly rolled his eyes at Tessa, his gaze full of disdain.
Tessa pulled out the contract and placed it on the table. She said with a smile, "Mr. Zachman, Mr. Loewe, I'm
Tessa Yates from Shelton Law Firm. I'm here to discuss the possibility of signing a contract with your company."
She took a seat on a nearby single couch. "Mr. Zachman, Mr. Loewe, | heard that your current legal advisory
contract with your previous law firm is about to expire, right?
"Perhaps you could consider signing it with our company. Shelton Law Firm is the top law firm in Rivertown, with
renowned lawyers who specialize in civil, criminal, intellectual property, and administrative law."
She then turned to Jimmy and said, "Moreover, | heard that your company is currently dealing with a trademark
infringement dispute. Our firm's intellectual property lawyers have handled thousands of trademark infringement
cases, so choosing us would be a wise choice."

Timothy picked up the legal advisory contract that Tessa handed to him, lazily flipped through a few pages, and
then simply tossed it aside.
He stared at Tessa and smirked. "A legal advisor, huh? No problem. But first, how about you have a few drinks
with me, Ms. Yates?" He offered her a glass of wine. "As long as I'm happy, anything can be discussed."
Meanwhile, Jimmy looked at Tessa with a lecherous gaze. "Ms. Yates, you're so young and beautiful. Simply being
a lawyer is such a waste of your talents.
"Why don't you consider working forinstead? You won't have to run around dealing with cases like this, and
I'll give you ten thousand a month. What do you say?"
Tessa simply smiled and said, "Sorry, Mr. Loewe. I'm here to discuss the contract, not offer myself."
"lI understand." Jimmy grinned. "Young women nowadays love playing hard to get. You don't have to answer me
right now."
He pulled out a business card from his bag and passed it to Tessa. "Here's my card. If you ever change your mind
and decide you no longer want to work so hard anymore, just givea call."
Tessa was keenly aware that there was something wrong with the drink. She shook her head and said, "Sorry, Mr.
Zachman. | don't drink."
Timothy seemed unfazed. He smiled and slowly set the glass down before walking over to Tessa. "You're quite a
lofty one, aren't you?"
He abruptly grabbed her wrist. "With
such a fiery temper, you clearly haven't a clue about the unspoken rules of business negotiations, do you? shall
teach you a thing or two tonight!" With that, he lunged at Tessa.
In one swift move, Tessa rose from her seat and twisted his arms behind his back, locking him in place. Timothy
immediately yelped in pain, his smirk no longer present. He gritted his teeth and spat, "You bitch! How dare you
lay a hand on me!"
Tessa delivered a sharp kick to his crotch. As he stumbled in pain, she immediately took the opportunity to run
out of the room.
Timothy shouted in rage, "How dare you kick me! Get her! I'm going to teach that insolent woman a lesson she'll
never forget!"
William was the first to chase after her, with Timothy and Jimmy following suit.

Tessa ran out of the private room, and without even waiting for the elevator to arrive, she dashed downstairs.
She was wearing high heels, which made it rather difficult to run. Just as she reached the first floor and exited
the stairwell, she bumped right into someone.
She fell into a warm embrace, her senses immediately enveloped by a crisp, woody scent. She lifted her head
only to be met with Stephen's worried gaze.
He held her in his arms and asked in concern, "What's wrong, Tessa? Why are you running like this?" "Stephen..."
Tessa barely managed to call out his nbefore the people behind her caught up.
William was the first to rush out, but upon sensing that something was wrong, he immediately pretended to be a
passerby and slipped away.
"You bitch, where are you running off
to now? I'm going to—" Timothy cursed as he caught up to her, lifting his head as he spoke. Upon seeing Tessa
wrapped in Stephen's arms, with four buff bodyguards behind him, he immediately fell silent.
It was the president of Jacobson Corporation, Stephen Jacobson!
Timothy's face flashed with a mixture of shock and fear. He was so shocked that he couldn't even utter a single
word.
