No matter how capable he was, there was always someone in this world who would leave him helpless.
Just like now, he no longer knew how to describe his mood.
Today, he was discussing some matters with his lawyer, who had also brought a few lawyer friends. They were chatting about some recent notable financial cases, and as they were having a harmonious discussion in the cigar room, one of the lawyers' phone rang.
Gathered there were all renowned lawyers, and the one whose phone rang was the chief lawyer of Hayward Branch, working for Charlotte Miller.
Atlas Hallow didn't pay much mind at first, thinking it was probably a domestic call from a wife checking up on her husband at this hour. He didn't expect the lawyer's expression to turn grave and announced he had to excuse himself.
Of course, the lawyer was aware of the past between Charlotte Miller and Atlas Hallow, so he mentioned briefly, "There's an issue at the company, I'll take my leave first."
