CHAPTER 19: CHAPTER 19: STUBBORN YET SOFTHEARTED, BUYING MEDICINE FOR HER HIMSELF

"Attorney Dunn is truly getting more and more impressive." Ethan Quinn’s voice.

"Director Quinn, do you like it?" she giggled, working hard to ask with a smile.

"With Attorney Dunn being so impressive, how could I not like it?" he smirked.

"By the way, Director Quinn, did you lock the meeting room door? Could someone come in?" Lily Dunn suddenly asked.

"Don’t worry, it’s locked... come on, switch..."

The sound made everyone in the restaurant blush, and all eyes were on Lily Dunn, all with mocking expressions.

The attorney named Dunn, she’s really wild.

By the way, is the Director Quinn mentioned in the recording Ethan Quinn, the owner of Veritas United?

Tut-tut, he always seems so serious, who would have thought he’d be so sordid behind the scenes—

Lily Dunn heard the sound of her and Ethan Quinn doing that in the meeting room, and then looked at the mocking faces around her. Her face turned pale in an instant, her hands tightly clenched.

When did this damn woman record it?

"Turn it off now!" she yelled in anger.

Summer Nolan didn’t turn it off, letting the recording continue, "Miss Dunn is after all a lawyer, what she says should have evidence. If you slander me again, affecting my reputation, I have ways to teach you a lesson."

Lily Dunn was furious, she couldn’t stand it anymore, suddenly raised her hand to slap her face, but Summer Nolan disdainfully knocked her to the ground with a kick.

"So disgusting, even made my heel dirty." Summer Nolan looked disdainfully, then turned to Mrs. Vaughn,

"Lily Dunn is your representing attorney? Mrs. Vaughn, I advise you not to use dirty tricks on me, or I will make sure you don’t get a dime..."

Having said that, she took her handbag and left.

Mrs. Vaughn turned her head to look at her with a darkened expression, sneering, does she think she can get nothing just because she says so?

Even if Elias Spencer can’t defend her in court, he must have a way to win against this woman, right? At worst, she will just pay him more.

Shortly after Summer Nolan arrived at the meeting room, Elias Spencer also came.

He didn’t ask her what she talked about with the old fox, took off his coat and hung it on the back of the chair, slightly loosened his tie with one hand and sat down, ready to work.

He didn’t even spare an extra glance at her.

Summer Nolan glanced at him, didn’t explain either. Even when they were dating, they lacked trust, often having cold wars or being silently jealous.

Not to mention they have broken up now.

He certainly wouldn’t trust her.

She took a financial report and glanced at it, when her lower abdomen suddenly ached—

It was like someone was stirring her stomach with a knife.

The pain made her face turn a bit pale, she held her forehead with one hand, and covered her lower abdomen with the other, trying hard to endure it, why did the stomach suddenly hurt?

Then she suddenly felt a rush of warmth flowing out—

Could it be... that time of the month?

Summer Nolan’s face became even more uncomfortable, being in someone else’s company, it must have already stained her suit skirt, and she didn’t even dare to stand up now.

Every time she got her period, it would ache for the first two days, very uncomfortable. Today, she not only didn’t bring a ’sanitary pad’ but also didn’t have painkillers.

What should she do?

Elias Spencer noticed something unusual about the woman opposite him, glanced up to see her holding her forehead, head down, breathing seemed a bit rapid, and asked in a cool tone:

"What’s wrong?"

Summer Nolan looked up at him and pretended to be strong, spitting out two words, "...Nothing."

Then she rummaged through her handbag and took out a pack of cigarettes, pulled out one and bit on it, lit it and took a deep drag, wanting to numb the pain with nicotine.

Did she seem fine now?

Elias Spencer saw her suddenly pale face, was silent for a moment, then stood up and walked out without saying anything.

Summer Nolan turned to look at him walking away indifferently, then withdrew her gaze. It was normal for him not to care about her now, after all, they’d broken up.

The two of them were still competing with each other, like an invisible wall of ice standing between them.

About ten minutes later, Elias Spencer walked into the front hall of the company quickly, with something wrapped in several layers of black plastic bags in his hand, his usually calm demeanor slightly embarrassed.

"Attorney Spencer, you’re back?" The receptionist secretary greeted him flirtatiously, how could there be such a charismatic man?

"Mm." He replied in a low voice, not stopping his steps, but ran into Mr. Forest who was coming out.

"Attorney Spencer, did you just go out?" he asked. They had come up the stairs together in the afternoon work hours, so why did he suddenly run out?

"Bought something." Elias Spencer said indifferently.

"Oh, you could just ask the secretary to buy what you need, no need to go personally." Mr. Forest said politely to him.

"Mr. Forest, it’s better to keep the female secretaries out of the meeting room, I don’t want to walk out of here with coffee burns." He took the opportunity to say coldly.

Mr. Forest paused, quickly realizing what he meant, and laughed heartily, "That’s because Attorney Spencer is too charming, don’t worry, I’ll remind them."

Elias Spencer nodded slightly, didn’t say anything more, and stepped inside.

Mr. Forest watched him go, glanced at the black thing in his hand, a bit curious... what is that?

Entering the meeting room, seeing her lying on the conference table, Elias Spencer tossed a package of black-wrapped items in front of her, saying, "Take it."

Summer Nolan straightened up, looked at him, then at the tightly wrapped package, opened it, and it turned out to be a pack of sanitary pads?

Did he personally go out and buy this for me?

Very surprised, she thought he was unhappy about her getting close to Raymond Dawson, that’s why he went out.

Suddenly thinking of something, Elias Spencer brought his suit jacket over and offered it to her, "Put it on."
