The lamb was weak and looked like a sickly pretty girl. When Mike saw the Lord of the Lambs' actions, he reached out to help Adele put on her coat. Unexpectedly, Adele opened her arms and hugged him.

"senior."

Adele buried her face in Mike's chest and hugged him tightly, as if trying to get warmth from him.

The girl looked like she was still sleepy, and maybe she thought she was dreaming. Mike felt soft-hearted for the moment and didn't push her away.

Who can push the cute lamb away?

The Lord of the Sheep next to her thought that Adele had finally found the opportunity to do something she had wanted to try many times during her journey.

Everyone else was away, and there were only the two of them in the hotel. It was a godsend. The doctor probably thought that Adele was still sleepy, but in fact, the girl's earlobes were red.

My daughter has grown up.

Mike noticed the meaningful look in the Sheep Lord's eyes and was shocked. When did even the lambs learn such sophisticated strategies?

Adele’s body temperature is already high, and she usually worries about being burned, so when did she catch a cold?

It seems that he had preconceived ideas and fell into the trap without realizing it.

Rather than...

It’s better to take advantage of the situation.

Mike retracted his gaze, gently stroked the lamb's long hair, and whispered: "Adele, it's time to wake up, right?"

This is a reminder.

Sure enough, the lamb raised its head as if "awakened", and its eyes met the man's. It felt like it was electrocuted, and could not help but lower its head again.

Discovered?

The girl murmured, "Actually, I want to sleep a little longer."

How could such a simple plan fool this man?

From the beginning to the end, she took advantage of the doctor's kindness and his consideration and concern for the operators. She is such a sinful woman.

Mike laughed in his heart. The lamb wanted it but was worried about hurting him. Only such an innocent child would attract the attention of the Lord of Sheep.

"It doesn't matter. I know everything."

Mike also hugged Adele tightly, if only for a brief moment.

Less than two minutes later, Zhongyue's gentle voice came from downstairs of the hotel: "Ms. Desiree, this is our temporary residence. We haven't had time to prepare for your visit."

My brother's voice was not loud, but it quickly penetrated most of the space in the hotel. The simple wooden door could not provide any sound insulation.

Mike and Adele, who were hugging each other, heard the noise and quickly separated, like a pair of cats stealing food.

They did nothing, yet it seemed as if they had done everything.

The two of them laughed in unison.

Adele bit her lower lip, put on her coat gently, straightened her collar, looked at the man opposite her, and asked faintly, "Did you do the same with Dr. Kal'tsit when you were in Rhodes Island?"

Mike was shocked. How did the lamb know about him and Kal'tsit?

"Dr. Kelsey and I have a normal relationship as colleagues. Nothing has happened. Don't believe those rumors."

"That's right, I understand."

Adele had to go back to her room to prepare. Mike didn't quite understand what was happening downstairs and he had to step in now.

The lamb closed the door, leaned against it, hugged his arms, and looked absent-minded.

Which of the Rhodes Island operators doesn't know about the Doctor and Dr. Kal'tsit?

Things that anyone with a discerning eye can see can at most help hide it from Amiya. As for how much can be concealed, perhaps only the parties involved know.

"Adele, are you okay?"

The Lord of Sheep floated in front of the lamb and looked at her with concern.

The lamb shook his head: "I'm fine."

The Doctor is still the same as before and is not good at rejecting others.

She has already lost once, is she going to lose it a second time?

Adele, you have to work harder.

……

On the other side, Mike walked up the wooden stairs, the heels of his boots hitting the template making a crisp sound, and he saw Zhongyue and Desiree sitting on the sofa in the hall at a glance.

Desiree, a top lawyer at the famous law firm of the Great Knight, codenamed "But".

But the intersection of the book and Rhodes Island occurred in the year when the Knight of Glory returned and won the Knight Competition. She helped the Red Pine Knights win an almost impossible-to-win lawsuit, forcing the plaintiff to become the defendant, the victim to go to trial, and finally reached an out-of-court settlement.

At that time, Flame Tail Knight Sona asked why they didn't continue to pursue the victory. Desiree tactfully told her that the defendant's evidence was not sufficient. If time passed, by the time the other party reacted, the advantage they had gained would be lost. It would be better to take the opportunity to ask for compensation.

It is worth mentioning that this lawsuit helped Dester get the badge of gold medal lawyer, and she became famous overnight. More and more people and organizations wanted to hire her as their agent. However, the great lawyer retired at this time and went to Rhode Island Pharmaceutical Company for vacation, which lasted for several months.

As Mike walked down the stairs step by step, he was quickly calculating in his mind. He was trembling in fear in the Knight's leadership and dared not make a sound. Who could find their whereabouts?

So how did Desiree find her way here?

"You came?"

Zhongyue noticed Mike's arrival and took the initiative to stand up and sit on the other side, opposite Desiree, giving him his previous seat.

Bro, seriously, there's no need to do this.

Mike complained in his heart.

"Hello, Miss Desiree, I didn't expect it was really you."

"You know me?"

Desiree gave a professional smile, took out a business card from her bag and handed it to Mike.

Mike took it and said with the same smile: "In the Great Knight Territory, there are very few people who don't know the Golden Lawyer."

"But in this mobile city, not many people can remember me."

Desiree left on her own initiative when she was at the height of her fame, precisely to cool herself down.

There are many friends in the legal profession, but there are even more enemies, especially those elite lawyers who are trying to step on their peers to get to the top. It can be said that the Great Knight has as many enemies as he has law firms and lawyers in office.

How could Dester not be afraid and run away at that time?

No one can guarantee that they will always win, and no one can guarantee that they will not make mistakes.

"Let's get back to the topic, Mr. Mike, Mr. Zhongyue. My office has learned that you and your teams are about to leave Casimir and head to the cold northern border for further exploration. Therefore, I have made a sincere suggestion to you two."

Mike noticed the words Desiree used and guessed in his mind that it seemed that when he went to handle the procedures of the Exploration Association, Xingji passed the message to Danshu.

The problem is that he didn't reveal the number of participants and the name list at that time...

broken.

Most likely, Dester would run into Zhongyue at the door and would be able to get the real news from her eldest brother in a few words.

In addition, since they are all operators of Rhodes Island, they are not very vigilant.

"Please go ahead. I trust the lawyer."

22. Three Women, One Drama

In Dester's not-so-long career, something unexpected happened today.

Even in the Great Knight Territory, the Columbia duo, who had little interaction with her, actually sent her a message.

Originally, Dester had no intention of getting involved. Such an expedition team from the far east, passing by Casimir and entering the depths of the Sami Ice Field, did not attract her attention.

What is her relationship with this team? Did they commit a crime in the Grand Knight Territory?

After getting a negative answer, Dester was about to hang up the phone, but at this moment, the woman named Holhaiya called her.

"Ms. Desiree, are you really not interested at all? As long as you do us this small favor, Rhine Life will thank you for your help."

"What does this have to do with Rhine Life?"

"They are going to enter the North. This will inevitably involve the Columbia Joint Exploration Association. A department director of Rhine Life has disappeared on the ice field..."

"I don't want to hear these. These are just excuses. Miss Holhaiya, you have to show your sincerity to impress me. If you say these words again, I can only reject you with regret."

"We suspect the identity of the man named Mike. Xingji's divination has no effect on him. This kind of thing has only happened to one person before."

Holhaier did not continue the topic at this point. She could hear from the microphone that the barrister on the other side's breathing rhythm had changed.

In fact, when Desiree was on vacation in Rhode Island, she was once confused and wondered whether she should really help Red Pine Forest win the lawsuit.

The confusion troubled her, making her depressed and unable to extricate herself.

Even the most elite lawyers cannot break free from their own constraints.

At this time a person appeared.

Although he is very thin and does not seem to have much strength, what he says is so important.

He went deep into Dester's heart, sorted out her complicated emotions, and helped her out of her predicament step by step.

It is true that Desiree is a strong woman, but she is also a woman who was surprised to find that she could get help from a gentleman.

but……

"Is what you said true?"

"I don't know if it's true or not. You can only know it by trying it. If you are willing to help, that would be even better."

"I can help you try it, but I can't come to a conclusion."

"Thank you very much. It doesn't really matter whether it's true or not, does it?"

The last sentence that Holhaiya said made Desiree hang up the phone directly.

He is worthy of being a Colombian, he can talk about things with no bottom line so easily. Xingji is really something, an astronomer actually hangs out with a woman like Holhaiya.

In just a few seconds, countless thoughts emerged in Desiree's mind, including that memory. She quickly adjusted her state, looked at Mike opposite her and continued:

"From a few years ago to now, many people have entered the Sami Icefield, and a considerable number of expedition teams have disappeared and never been found again, leaving their families with only pain and longing."

"Ladies and gentlemen, if you want to enter the ice field, I don't doubt your ability, but considering some uncertain situations, I still think you should buy commercial insurance for yourselves."

Mike was shocked by what Desiree said next. He thought the top lawyer had some profound ideas, but he turned out to be selling insurance.

Since when did even top lawyers have to work this part-time?

But if you think about it carefully, the Knight Championship led by the Grand Knight is in full swing, and accidents are inevitable during the competition. It is extremely reasonable to purchase commercial insurance for the knights.

But if it is such a small matter, you can just ask a salesman to come, why would the top lawyer come in person?

Mike turned his head and glanced at Zhongyue. Zhongyue seemed to have expected such a situation, so he took the initiative to ask: "Can we write the same person as the beneficiary of the commercial insurance we purchased?"

"Probably not. This would involve insurance fraud and render the insurance invalid. But I think this insurance will never take effect."

The gold medal lawyer's words were refreshing and her attitude was very clear. I'm afraid her real purpose was not to sell insurance but to test the waters.

What the hell.

What went wrong to cause so many moving suspicions?

"Mr. Mike, what do you think?"

"That makes sense. May I ask what the maximum insurance amount is?"

Dan Shu is worthy of being the elite among the elites. As soon as Mike asked the question, she blurted out a string of numbers. It was an astonishing amount. Even Mike wanted to set a trap for himself and defraud the insurance compensation.

This woman is very good at taking advantage of human weaknesses.

"We need to discuss it. After all, this matter requires everyone's participation, and it is not something that can be decided by one or two people."

"Of course, this is a sample of commercial insurance. You can pass it around. I'll come visit again tomorrow morning."

"Okay, please take care, I'll take you there."

Zhongyue stood up and escorted Dester out of the hotel.

Mike took the commercial insurance paper in his hand and glanced at it casually. When Zhongyue came back, he said softly, "She is here to delay time."

"I see, Mike, did you meet someone outside today?"

"Xintelaiya, Sona, Xingji and Holhaiya. The latter two are in the Columbia office. I didn't expect to meet them there. If I had known this, I wouldn't have gone there."
