Chapter 188 She took the elevator to the top floor of the office building, where Benjamin’s office was
located
The receptionist was facing the door. Behind her, the logo of the Andersons Law Firm was particularly
striking. It was made of white tiles, and the table was placed with a round porcelain vase. The interior
design was simple and magnificent.
“Hello, I’m Catelyn. I have an appointment with Mr. Anderson at three o’clock this afternoon. “Catelyn
walked to the front desk and reminded her gently.
The receptionist made a simple inquiry on the computer and looked at the information on Catelyn’s ID
card. “Okay, Mr. Anderson is meeting a client right now. Please wait for a moment in the waiting area.”
Those who could hire Mr. Anderson were either rich or powerful.
Even if it was just for consulting, the price for the session was nothing cheap.
The receptionist did not dare to neglect any clients that came here. Catelyn sat in the waiting area and

Mr. Anderson usually charges by the second, so he would not exceed the time limit.
However, to her surprise, at two-fifty, the receptionist suddenly answered a phone call, and her face
changed.
“I’m sorry, Miss Clark. Mr. Anderson is going to meet an important client at three o’clock. He may not be
able to see you anymore. Can I help you change the time to next week?” The receptionist respectfully
walked to the waiting area and bowed to apologize to Catelyn.
Time was precious. It was usually difficult for ordinary customers to make an appointment.
It took her a lot of effort to make this appointment.
Jamie could send her a lawyer’s letter at any time, and she did not know which lawyer he would invite to
sue. How could she wait for next week?
A terrible idea popped up in her mind.
Did Jamie also want to hire Benjamin for the same lawsuit?
“Can you tell me who this client is first?”
“Client’s information is strictly confidential. I’m afraid we can’t disclose it.” With her eyelids twitching,
Catelyn grabbed the wrist of the receptionist and asked, “Is the
client’s last name Mason?”
“… How do you know?”
“I’m sorry. If his last name is Mason, I won’t cancel this appointment. If he has to cut the line to get before
me, I don’t mind inviting the media to comment on the matter!”
The receptionist did not expect that Catelyn, who was easy-going a second ago, would become so
determined the next second.
She broke free from Catelyn’s grip and said, “Miss, I’m just staff here. Please don’t make things difficult
for me…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What are you arguing for?” A deep male voice suddenly came from the corridor.
After hanging up the conversation with the last client, Benjamin was free for a few minutes. He heard an
argument at the door of the law firm. He walked over and saw the receptionist arguing with a young girl.
The girl wore a thin windbreaker. Her long hair was soft, and her jaw was delicate and sculpted.
The receptionist was so anxious that she could not speak fluently. “Mr… Mr. Anderson, I’m sorry. There’s
a small mistake. I can handle it.”
Mr. Anderson was famous for his priority on money. If she could not complete her job, she was sure that
Mr. Anderson would fire her without hesitation. Moreover, according to his usual behavior, she would not
get any compensation when she got fired.
Catelyn stopped arguing with the receptionist and looked at the man standing in front of her. The black
handmade suit outlined his body, and he was about thirty years old. When he walked into the corridor,
there was a faint fragrance of snow lotus. His face was smooth like jade, but his lips were thin, and his
eyebrows were unusually high. This kind of person looked like —
Someone who was rather difficult to get along with. He looked arrogant!
“Hello, Mr. Anderson. I have made an appointment with you at three o’clock. I heard that your next client
went by the last name Mason. He is likely to…”
