Chapter 404

Two weeks had passed since the last time Tessa saw Stephen. It was only when Marissa stopped by the law firm to discuss her case did she find out what he was up to.

Marissa told her that Stephen was out of the country to handle some business at the company's overseas branches.

Tessa had been up to her elbows in work in the last two weeks, so she didn't have the time or mental capacity to think about anything else. She had already filed the two Jacobson Corporation cases, and they were scheduled to be heard in court next month.

Meanwhile, Matthew and Yanis' divorce case was scheduled to take place next Thursday.

After they were done with work for the day, Tessa, Wynn, Jasmine, and Molly dropped by a steakhouse near the firm to have dinner together. After their meals were served, they chatted with each other while enjoying the delicious food.

The apartment Jasmine was currently renting was near Shelton Law Firm. Since the lease was almost up, she had been busy looking for a new place to stay. Coincidentally, Molly was also looking for a bigger apartment to live in.
