Chapter 157
Naomi turned around to look at Michael. “Mr. Symth, if I obey his assistant, then I’m really going to get
Into his bad books.”
Confusion was evident on Michael’s face.
Nearby, Brendan glanced at her coolly. He could tell that Naomi was better at ensuring no one knew of their relationship in front of strangers.
“Michael, the number of capable employees you have is growing by the day. These young men and women are not only capable, but they also have stunning good looks!”
“You guys have managed to nab the role of Mr. Ludwig’s legal representation.”
“You all are too polite. We at Solaris Law Firm are here to serve the people.”
As Naomi had handled her earlier cases well, Michael had handed Charles‘ case to her. This was a case
that received widespread public attention.
After a few rounds of wine, their conversation became even more engaged once they knew that Naomi
was Charles‘ lawyer.
“Ms. Goodwin, you’re so young. You’re single, right?” Naomi was young and gorgeous, so they eventually
got to that topic.
After the man finished speaking, Brendan glared at him. Yet, Naomi didn’t even glance at him as though
she didn’t know him at all.
Naomi finished listening to his question and smiled generously. “If Mr. Lautner has a suitable bachelor to
introduce to me, I can be single.”
Reuben was also at the dinner. After Naomi finished answering, he nearly choked on his tea.
As he cleared his throat and looked at Brendan, he saw that Brendan’s expression was darker than squid.
ink.
Chloe’s features tensed with nervousness as she turned toward Brendan.
Seeing that he looked unhappy, Chloe got him a bowl of soup. “Brendan, you’ve had some wine just now.
Drink some soup!”
Witnessing Chloe’s considerate behavior, Pearson Lautner smiled and said, “Mr. Ludwig’s assistant is
very sweet!
“I thought that being young, capable, and pretty, Ms. Goodwin would be a good match with Mr. Ludwig. Now it seems like this perfect couple will not have a chance to become a reality.”
As the middle–aged man finished his sentence, Chloe raised her gaze to look at Naomi and shot her an awkward glance.
But Naomi wasn’t even looking in her direction. She only smiled as she looked at Pearson and said, “Mr.

Ludwig is too powerful for me to even think of being with him. I’m not brave enough for that.”
Brendan’s expression became even darker when he heard what she said.
She had implicitly insulted him throughout the night.
Reuben didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry when it came to that mouth of hers.
Upon seeing the situation, Michael addressed Naomi and Sally, “Both of you, as well as Blair, Mr. Ludwig is Solaris‘ biggest client now. Let’s drink in his name.
Michael could tell that Naomi seemed to have some beef with Brendan tonight. He was terrified that she would offend him, so he was trying his best to mediate between them.
Michael had given his instruction, and Brendan was indeed one of their biggest clients. Naomi didn’t have a valid reason to disagree. Thus, she raised her glass along with Michael and her two other colleagues,
Blair and Sally.
The four of them walked over together. Naomi stood behind them, trying not to garner any attention or
interact with Brendan in any way.
“Mr. Ludwig, thank you for your trust in Solaris Law Firm. We will do your best to provide you with satisfactory service,” Michael promised confidently as he held his glass up.
Brendan agreeing to today’s dinner was a pleasant surprise for Michael. He’d heard that Brendan didn’t usually agree to dinners like this.
Once he came, Reuben and the rest of the bosses came over as well. Thus, their dinner was a fruitful one.
Naomi was their lucky star. Ever since she came to the law firm, Solaris has become more successful by
the day.
