At the stated time, Eloine knocks at Derek's door, opens it and walks in, he is still sleeping. He gently taps him, three taps wakes him up, he runs his eyes with the back of his palms. Then he raises his eyes to the wall clock, it's 2:50 PM.He remembers that he had an appointment with his lawyer, Bianca. He rises from the bed abruptly, walks to his bathroom to freshen up. After spending ten minutes in the bathroom, he receives a call. It's Eloine. He stretched out his hand from the bathtub he is, clearly his face of soap with his left hand."Hello Eloine?" He already suspects what he wants to say even before he opens his mouth."Bianca is here, she requests to see you.""Tell her to wait for me in the guest room, and give me fifteen minutes. I'll be right there." He feels she should wait, though he is giving fifteen minutes, he might take a little bit longer than that but not longer than thirty minutes."Alright sir." Eloine waits for Derek to hang up the call, then he progresses t

"I wanted to ask if you could......" She stops, flinching her face to the side, with two documents still held in her hands, then she looks back at Derek."I don't know if you could go out on a date with me?"Derek is taken back, if not that he was fully balanced on the seat, he would have fallen. "What did you just say?" He chuckles."I asked if you would go out on a date with me?" This time around, she says with more confidence than before. Derek smiles."Why do you want me to go out on a date with you but you are my lawyer and we are supposed to keep things at a professional level?"She smiles, glancing at the floor. "I think I've begun falling for you, I don't know how but I think I have," her answer comes out before she realizes. Realizing what she has just said makes her want to freeze but there's nothing she can do, she has already said it.Derek is shocked, he doesn't know if he should talk, if he should smile or if he should stand and gaze at the bold lady who has made a remar
Son-in-law: The Billionaire's Reign Chapter 49: Tahlia's plot with Jackson
"I thought you came to discuss Tahlia's case?" He sees this as very important compared to the date she is talking of. She shakes her head, then nods it."Yes, I did. But something really important came and took over, which is our date." She smiles. "I'd love to go on a date with you then, but let's talk about the case first, at least thirty minutes to an hour." He pleads. "I really see this as very important, can we talk about it please, then the date follows?" "Yeah. We can."Bianca, having the hope of going out after the discussion, agrees to sit down to a discussion with him. She takes a look at her files, the ones she wrote the outcome of her observations and investigations."Well, today I wouldn't be necessarily saying what's gonna make you win the case, I have something else which is worth more than that. You might wonder what's that but I'm here to tell you that after a careful observation, I've discovered that Tahlia is planning to get you kidnapped with a certain gangster s
