After the two of them finished, it was already noon.
Anthony had been calling them nonstop, but in the end, he decided to go to their house. Taya blushed and tidied herself up before sitting across from Anthony.
Seeing her walking unsteadily, Anthony asked, “Taya, are you sick?”
Taya tried to respond, but when she opened her mouth, she suddenly started coughing violently due to her dry throat.
Seeing her in such a sickly state, Anthony couldn’t bring himself to complain and could only mutter, “Lawyers’ time is quite precious, so be on time next time.”
After recovering, Taya apologized with a flushed face, saying, “I’m sorry, I’ll be on time next time…”
Anthony reassured her, “It’s okay if you’re not on time, just let me know if you’re sick.” Anthony glanced at her again and asked, “Your illness isn’t serious, right? It won’t affect our court appearance, right?”
Taya blushed once more and shook her head, saying, “No, I’ll be fine tomorrow…” Standing upstairs, a man wearing a wristwatch and staring in the direction of the living room heard this and suddenly curled his lips into an indulgent smile.
Taya looked up and happened to see Griffon smiling, so she glared at him and said, “He’s going crazy.”
“Hmm?”
Anthony looked up from his documents and glanced at her.
Taya awkwardly waved her hand, saying, “I’m just joking.”
Anthony, being an experienced old fox, could tell from these few sentences what these two had been up to at home.
Looking closer at Taya’s attire, even in the peak of summer, she was wearing long sleeves, long pants, and even a scarf.
If he still didn’t understand, then he would be a fool.
He clenched his fists and coughed lightly into his hand, “Hurry and call him down. After we finish talking, I need to go back and organize the case.”
Just as Taya was about to get up and call Griffon, the well-dressed man slowly walked down the stairs.
Taya stared at his fair neck and couldn’t help but think about biting it next time.
The man, who seemed to be lost in his thoughts, sat down next to her and grabbed her small hand, placing it in his palm.
Crossing his long legs and lazily leaning back on the couch, he said, “Let’s begin.”
He was speaking to Anthony, and Griffon’ naturally cold voice and inherent nobility were quite intimidating.
Even Anthony, who was accustomed to the various kinds of person, felt a bit nervous in the presence of Griffon.
Fortunately, the conversation revolved around his area of expertise, so he didn’t show any signs of fear and even displayed a sense of pride.
