Chapter 127
In the lobby downstairs, Leslie terminated the remote control of the robot. He then closed the laptop and stood up slowly.
For a tech company, having such equipment was nothing extraordinary.
He walked to the elevator. Just as the doors opened, a figure rushed out in frustration.
It was Kimberly.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Leslie turned to sidestep her. Unexpectedly, Kimberly suddenly turned around and reached out to stop him.
“It’s you?” Kimberly’s angry expression transformed into one of pleasant surprise. Wasn’t he the handsome guy who had become the talk of the entire building?
Observing him up close, he looked charming at every angle. With his exceptionally handsome face and profound eyes, he was captivating from every perspective.
To divert attention from Aurelia, Kimberly had fabricated stories about Leslie pursuing her, painting him as a wealthy and handsome man trying to gain experiences.
She thought people in the building would gradually forget about the stories over time. To her bewilderment, the gossip had only intensified, and everyone had started asking when she
would introduce her boyfriend to them.
Kimberly was taken aback to see him here.
Looking at his refined suit and sophisticated demeanor, combined with his free access throughout the building, it was clear that he wasn’t an ordinary person.
It seemed that she had hit the jackpot.
Kimberly’s mouth curved into a delighted smile as she grabbed Leslie’s wrist. “Oh, I’m sorry, handsome. It seems like I’ve twisted my foot. Could you please take me to the couch to rest?” She tilted her head and gazed up at Leslie at a calculated angle. This perspective made a lady’s neck and cheeks appear unusually delicate, inviting men to want to protect her.
She had used this technique repeatedly, and it had never failed.
She refused to believe that her charm wouldn’t conquer him.
Once Leslie escorted her to the sofa, she planned to use the opportunity to inquire about his identity. She would then pretend to be grateful and invite him to dinner. In the end, they would grow closer.
Men valued their ego, and it was impossible for them to refuse a woman’s invitation.
When the time was right, she would invite him to have a meal with the people in the office, securing her position as the subject of envy.
Kimberly slowly raised her hand and signaled Leslie to assist her.
To her surprise, Leslie pulled his arm away with a cold expression. “What does it have to do with me?”

Kimberly’s hand stilled in midair, and she froze in embarrassment.
Leslie walked past her and got into the elevator, leaving her behind.
Kimberly watched as the elevator stopped at a certain floor. This man was crucial to her pride. She refused to give up.
The elevator stopped on the 31st floor, a floor above One Technology.
She glanced at the directory to search for the office.
Sunlit Legal Agency.
He was actually a lawyer.
Thrilled, she did an online search and was pleasantly surprised by what she found.
It was a famous legal firm filled with lawyers who make hundreds of thousands each year.
She smiled and turned to call Jackson.
“Why are you calling me so frequently these days?” he asked.
“Jackson, can you help me search for a young, handsome lawyer in Sunlit Legal Agency?”
Jackson was from a wealthy background with no actual talent. He was also a womanizer with very specific tastes.
He didn’t like noble ladies and preferred frail women. He would toss them aside once he was done with them and wouldn’t care if they lived or died.
Kimberly had gotten to know him from a certain gathering and had aimed for him at first. However, she gave up after seeing what he did to the women around him.
In the end, she decided to change her strategy.
