Perfect CEO

The next morning, the parcels arrived, containing the clothes and toys that had been brought from Willowbank.

Meanwhile, a chief legal officer of Solstice Group had also come along with the parcels.

As Camille signed for the parcel, she caught sight of a man in a sharp suit carrying a briefcase, prompting her to inquire, “May I know who you are looking for?”

Camille couldn't shake off the feeling that the man standing in front of her resembled an insurance salesman. She had come across many individuals dressed similarly in the past, often carrying briefcases, a common trait of insurance salespeople.

She then pondered, But this is a high-end residential area. It's not easy for even a fly from outside to enter. Why would they allow a man like him to come in today?

Sawyer Hoffman extended his name card to Camille and introduced himself, “I am the chief legal officer of Solstice Group. I am here today to meet with Ms. Gwendolyn Ashton.”

As Camille realized that Sawyer was a lawyer, she couldn't resist stealing a few glances at him. Ah, so he's a lawyer. That explains his commanding and dignified presence.

After signing to acknowledge the receipt of the parcels, Camille stared at the few piles of items in a daze.

It prompted her to sigh and wonder what Gwendolyn had bought.

“Mr. Hoffman, please come in. I'll get Ms. Ashton for you.”

Camille paid no immediate attention to the parcels at the door. She was relieved that the delivery guy had brought them directly to the house. Otherwise, she would have had to figure out how to pick them up from the delivery station at the entrance of the residential area.

Sawyer followed Camille into the house, and she gestured for him to take a seat. She then prepared a cup of coffee for him.

After that, Camille excused herself and went upstairs to inform Gwendolyn about the guest's arrival. Gwendolyn was still in her pajamas, sitting on the terrace, sipping coffee, and engrossed in creating art on her drawing block.


Despite not having to work recently, Gwendolyn remained dedicated to her daily routine of learning and creating art. She would often send some of her drafts to Tiffany for feedback and make necessary changes based on her mentor's opinion.

“Gwen, a lawyer named Mr. Hoffman is here to see you.”

Gwendolyn raised her head and put down her pen after hearing Camille's words.

“A lawyer? Why is he here?”

Gwendolyn looked visibly concerned as she pondered, I haven't caused any trouble recently. Why would a lawyer come looking for me?

Camille's expression also showed a hint of worry as she asked, “Did you get into a fight recently?”

The last time a lawyer visited was when Gwendolyn had gotten into a physical altercation and ended up sending someone to the hospital. After the incident, Gwendolyn had to pay a substantial amount of compensation, which served as a lesson to her. Since then, she had refrained from engaging in any physical altercations.

Gwendolyn paused for a moment, then replied with certainty, “No, I haven't. I'm sure of that.”

The two walked out of the terrace, engaged in conversation. However, there were subtle signs of tension on their faces.

Camille deliberated for a brief moment before stating, “Perhaps I could place a call to Mr. Lowen? He has connections and is a man. He might be able to offer assistance in case of any unforeseen circumstances.”

Gwendolyn considered the idea of having Patrick's support as well but then realized that Patrick would likely be in the office at this hour.

“Ms. Ziegler, let's wait until I meet with the lawyer and ascertain the nature of the matter before we consider involving him. I don't want to unnecessarily trouble Patrick if it turns out to be something else.”

After all, Patrick was a busy man. If the nature of the matter was trivial, she could handle it herself.

Despite not having to work recently, Gwendolyn remained dedicated to her daily routine of learning and creating art. She would often send some of her drafts to Tiffany for feedback and make necessary changes based on her mentor's opinion.

Things have changed now. I have the financial means, and I am willing to face any compensation or legal proceedings.

Indeed, it was true that having financial resources could empower someone to stand tall.
