In the multimedia conference room.
Several shareholders and executives of the Cordova Group sat in the room and Bryson was in the
main seat. The atmosphere here was really tense.
Ean Cope, the public relations manager of the Cordova Group, stood in the middle of Audrey and
Russell as a referee. The three of them all stood on a high platform.
Ean looked at the crowd with a smile on his face.
"Standing on my left is Russell of Russell Law Firm. Standing on my right is Audrey of Square Law
Firm. Today, I will be the referee. Whoever wins today's competition will be the legal advisor of the
Cordova Group. Everyone here is a judge. If you have any objections, you can just say it."
Everyone whispered to each other, but no one spoke.
Ean looked at Bryson for instructions and Bryson nodded.
Ean smiled and continued, "Since no one has any objections, now let's start the competition. The
competition is simple. Firstly, we will testify how you are familiar with Chinese Law Code, which is
necessary if you want to be the legal advisor of the Cordova Group. Then we will have a fighting skill
test. The second is the competition. The Cordova Group is the largest company in Peace City. As our
legal advisor, you will know many company's secrets, so you have to have good fighting skills to protect
them. "
"Now let's begin the first round... "
Ean took out a book of law code.
"Next, what does the Stipulation 3 of Article 2 of the Economic Law say? Please write your answers on
the computer."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter hearing the question, Russell and Audrey lowered their heads and started typing on the computer.
The two of them finished almost at the same time and raised their hands.
Their answers were then displayed on the big screen behind them.
Their answers were both correct.
Ean continued to ask more questions. Russell and Audrey both answered the right ones.
It had been half an hour since the competition began but no one had won.
It was almost the time to have their company meeting.
A shareholder suggested to Bryson.
"Mr. Bryson, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to determine the winner. The two of them are equally
competent. How about we end the first round in draw!"
Bryson nodded thoughtfully.
With Bryson's approval, the shareholder shouted to Ean, "Mr. Ean, please announce the result!"
"Okay!"
A smile appeared on Elvis' face.
Although Audrey was so familiar with the laws and regulations at such a young age, Audrey would
definitely not be Russell's opponent in terms of fighting skills.
Just as Elvis finished this thought, Ean publicly announced, "I declare that the first round of the
competition is now over. Mr. Russell and Ms. Audrey are both qualified lawyers. Therefore, the first
round is tied."
Russell and Audrey stood up and nodded to greet each other as a form of courtesy.
"I declare that the second round begins now!" Ean said.
After saying that, Ean looked at Audrey with some pity.
After all ... Audrey was still a beautiful woman. If she was hurt, men would naturally feel sorry to see it.
Ean was no exception.
"Ms. Audrey, you can still terminate the competition now."
Audrey smiled and raised her eyebrows, "There's no need."
Bryson also sat calmly in the crowd.
Since Audrey, Mr. Bryson, the shareholders and the executives present all raised no objection. As a
mere employee, Ean was even less qualified to object.
Ean coughed softly and said, "The second round is fighting skill competition. Whoever with better skills
wins. The rule is no hurting next, let's begin!"
After saying that, Ean retreated to the side, leaving Russell and Audrey on the stage.
Russell confidently placed one of his hands behind his back.
"Audrey, I never fight with a woman, but the fight is inevitable today. I'll just use one hand in the fight."
Russell seemed to be a gentleman. However, he was just looking down on Audrey. He used one hand
to deal with Audrey because he thought she was a woman and must know nothing about fighting.
This movement also indicated his confidence and that he could win Audrey.
The shareholders and executives below the stage were all discussing.
"Mr. Russell just uses one hand. This is a gentleman's behavior. It's truly admirable."
"Even if Mr. Russell uses one hand, Ms. Audrey still can't win. I heard that Mr. Russell is in the third
phase of the Black Belt."
"I see. It seems that Ms. Audrey has no chance of winning."
"How can she win? Besides, she's just a woman. A woman can never win against a man!"
Audrey heard the voices of the shareholders and executives.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe looked at Russell with a contemptuous expression.
"Mr. Russell, please use your full strength. I'm afraid that they will not recognize me victory, accusing
me of taking the advantage of you!"
Russell frowned slightly, a mocking sneer flashing through his eyes.
This woman didn't know him and thought she could beat him with her poor skills.
Russell smiled sinisterly and pulled back his hand behind the back.
"Since you said so, then ... forgive me!"
After Russell finished speaking, he made a move and waved his fist towards Audrey's shoulder.
Audrey, who was standing on the spot, remained motionless after Russell made the first move.
The shareholders and executives were all shocked when they saw that Audrey had no reaction.
Just as Russell's fist was about to land on Audrey's shoulder, shareholders and executives
subconsciously turned their eyes away. They felt pitiful as a beautiful woman was about to be hit.
Not only the shareholders and executives, even Russell believed that he would win today.
However, when his fist was about to land on Audrey's shoulder in the next second, Audrey, who was
originally standing motionless, suddenly moved away in a strange manner, causing Russell's fist to
punch in the air.
The shareholders, executives, and Russell all revealed expressions of disbelief.
Everyone all saw the quick move of Audrey, dodging Russell's attack.
At this moment, Audrey stood not far behind Russell with a smile on her face.
When Russell turned around, Audrey blinked at him with an innocent expression.
Russell narrowed his eyes and stared dangerously at Audrey. He was like an enraged leopard. His
second attack came towards Audrey's head at an even more ferocious way.
However, before Russell could hit Audrey, he was stopped halfway.
