Jade reach the restaurant earlierby five minutes, she ordered for something to drinkand search on her phone while waiting for her client, normally she wouldn't advise a meeting outside of the office when handling cases like thisbut she also need to test her client emotional strength if she's fit to face people around and the various setting that might come up during the course of the trial, she is already assigned someone to follow Miss Zyrine conspicuously to protect her and prevent from being harass.

She's very careful of handling this case because of her personal experience . She make sure that no innocent lives will be wasted because of someone who s unable to control their animal instinctand place their head where its suppose to be.

" Miss Ho? what are you doing here?" she raise herheadand recognized her previous client whom she successfully won the case before.

"Mr. Blare how are you?I'm meeting someone here,how about you? you look great, long time no see."."I'm treating a friend to a lunch. Let me introduce you...he just returned a week ago from abroadwe had a chance meeting so I invited him here." as he turn to his friend.

"Hello Miss Ho, we meet again." Zander said casually with a smile.

"You Know each other?" Mr Blare ask.

"She is handling the opponent on Josh case."he replied, and there is thatstarethat baffled her.

" Hello Mr. Chen." she replied flatly.

' I'm telling you Zandershe is not an easy opponent, better be on her good side" Mr Blaresaid teasingly.

"Can't help it John." smilingly he replied. as the waiter approach them to usher them to their table.

" See you aroundMiss Ho"as they bothwaved at her.

" Is that CEO Chen?" Zyrine ask as she sat opposite Jade.

"What does he want?"

" He's here having lunch With a friend. ActuallyI ask you to meetto discuss about your lawsuit against that company, but first let's order as she signal the waiter."So after the meeting with client and discuss the arrangement. she immediately called her assistant to set a meeting withthe representative of the Gems company , she doesn't want to have personal contact with the CEO himself, she couldn't understand why, he seem like he doesn't know her, but very much disturbed with the way he looks at her, no anger, no negative reaction seem to emanatefrom himthat was present in their last confrontation. as well as the feelings seems like to tell he is interested in her. as if he totally unaware of the things had happened eight years ago.

As she walked her her client to her car they were accosted by no other thanthe most evil minded Josh Chen. "Zyrine you bitch what do hope to squeese out of this lawsuit no one will believe you.its your word against minewith my family's connection I will crushed you. you will...."he came screaming.

He turn to her , his anger turned to recognition and bewilderment. "and who... Carah?"

"I am her lawyer and if you don't want an additon on your charges you stay away from her."

"What's going on here weren't you advise to stay away from Miss Zyrine." Zander said angrily to his cousin.

" Zander... I was justtrying to appeal to her... Josh replied looking nervuos.If you have any concerns regarding the lawsuit, talked to your lawyer do not ,I repeat do not approach my client."she demanded trying to end the confrontation as soon as possible.

" but... aren't you're just staging a revenge ?'

"What do think? for once use you're brain instead of just your head." and shestare at the crotch of his pants. leaving the men bewildered as to what she meant. And quickly ushered her client to climb in the car. As she drove her car away from the scene. she made a phone call to her escort to follow Zyrine's car.
