She was of regal bearing, maybe 4@ years old, with a smile on her Lips and a familiar purse hanging on her arm.

Mollie had been in the financial industry for a long time and knew the woman in front of her. There was another reason she recognized the woman—she was the mom of the one who got away.

She stood up in a hurry and tipped over her water glass, staring dumbly as the water spread across the desk, ruining several important-looking documents.

Mollie didn't have the time to deal with that just now. She righted her water glass and walked around the desk. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

"Hello, Mrs. Hilton," she said, trying to sound as graceful as her guest appeared to be.

Erica Looked Mollie up and down. Her long black hair was tied up on the top of her head, and she wore just enough make-up to accentuate her features, but not look too made up. Wearing a black suit, she Looked elegant and capable.

"Mollie?" Suppressing the excitement in her heart, Erica tried to maintain the image she had created today. She couldn't frighten her future daughter-in-law.

"Yes, ma'am."

Realizing her gaffe, Mollie quickly adjusted her mood and said, "Mrs.

Hilton, please have a seat. Would you Like something to drink?"

Erica sat down on the sofa and observed her future daughter-in-law carefully as Mollie summoned an assistant in and gave her orders.

So this was the girl her eldest son had carried a torch for. A ten-year crush. Mollie had managed to open a law firm on her own. Erica was impressed.

A cup of hot tea was placed in front of Erica, and Mollie sat down stiffly.

"Excuse me. Is there a reason you came to see me?"

Erica decided to crack a joke with her to ease her nervousness.

"What are your rates, Mollie? Do you charge by the hour, or...?"

Mollie took a deep breath and forced a smile.

"Don't worry, Mrs.

Hilton. I had the honor to team up with Hilton Group once, and Adkins helped me a Lot. Today, you came here in person. It's my honor, really.

No charge."

Besides, she was Adkins’ mother! How could she charge her?

With one hand supporting her chin, Erica looked at her with a smile.

"I did come here today to consult a lawyer, but it's not a commercial dispute." She knew that business disputes were Mollie's forte.

“Okay. If you have any questions, ask away. I'll tell you everything I know. If you're not happy with my services, I have a Lot of friends I could recommend," Mollie said.

“Excuse me, Mollie. Would you please tell me what the sentence for going through someone else's belongings without their knowledge and consent is?" Erica asked.
