Her Divorce Lawyer Want Her novel Chapter 25

Chapter 25

Liam: [What’s so great about that old guy that you keep tricking me?

[Are you seeking revenge on me? Because I got Natalie pregnant?

[I’m heading to Sairo right now. You better explain yourself!]

Along with the texts was a picture.

It was snapped while she was chatting with Thomas earlier.

The photo showed Thomas smiling and his hand seemingly resting on her waist, while she looked down shyly.

In reality, Thomas had just switched his briefcase to the other hand, and that hand was only then coming down. It just so happened to look like it was perfectly positioned on her waist.

And her “shyness” wasn’t real either; it was just the light from the fish tank next to her, reflecting off a slow- swimming tropical fish and casting a red glow on her face.

The photo was taken at a very tricky angle, perfectly timed. Just by looking at the picture, there was no way to tell the real story.

Suddenly, the secretary said, “Ms. Harper, our boss is out now. Do you want to try and make your case personally?”

As soon as she looked up, Freya saw a familiar face.

The secretary hurried to catch up, trying to grab the chance for Freya. “Ryan, there’s a candidate who’s really outstanding. You might want to have a chat with her before making your final decision…”

Ryan turned around, as if he had known all along that Freya would be here.

He chuckled, waved at Freya, and said to the secretary, “No need to chit-chat. I know her well.”

Ten minutes later, Freya was ushered into Ryan’s office.

Staring at the “Chairman: Ryan Reed” plaque on his desk, she was completely baffled for a long time.

After all, how could someone who’d been a lawyer for over a decade suddenly become a small boss of the Wesley Hotel?

Ryan tapped the plaque, his sexy eyes narrowing. “Surprised?”

“A bit,” Freya admitted. “Good thing, though. I was worried your lawyer’s salary wouldn’t match Liam’s before. Now, you’re a perfect match, made in heaven.”

Ryan snorted, clearly unimpressed. “Should I thank you for the blessing?”

“If you like, I can also wish you a happy marriage, lots of babies.”

Ryan’s face darkened instantly.

Freya went on, “If I’d known you were Wesley’s boss, I’d have applied to your rival hotel in advance.”

Ryan shrugged indifferently. “It’s not too late now.”

“Look, I’m divorced from Liam, and you personally took me to the courthouse for procedures. What did I do to you that you’re still targeting me after the divorce?”

Ryan raised an eyebrow. “You really want this job?”

Honestly, she did.

Not just because Wesley Hotel was a top player in the industry, but also because her dad had negotiated a merger with Wesley before his death.

She wanted to find more clues from back then to take down those crooks and clear her dad’s name.

At that moment, the phone rang.

The moment Freya answered, Liam’s furious voice exploded through the phone. “Don’t you dare spend the night with him! I don’t care if you’re doing this to get back at me, Freya.

“I can’t bring myself to punish you, but that old creep Thomas? I’ll ruin him.”

Freya retorted, “There’s absolutely nothing between me and Professor Cooper. He’s dedicated his whole life to teaching. Can’t you just leave innocent people alone?”
