First Loves Return Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 524

Chapter 524 

Crestwood Law Firm was seeing a growing number of cases, and the firm had recently hired a batch of lawyers and legal assistants. 

The HR, finance, and administration departments had also expanded, bringing in a few new employees. 

As the firm grew, its rules and regulations became more refined, 

Thanks to Lennon, the employees at the firm got to enjoy afternoon coffee every couple of days, which made the whole office atmosphere much more relaxed and cheerful. Mariela noticed that everyone seemed more motivated lately, and productivity had shot 

She had to admit that Lennon’s “courting” had really paid off. 

1. up. 

The only thing that bothered Mariela was that Lennon showed up at the firm two or even three times a week during his five–day workweek. 

He claimed it was to “inspect the work“, but no one really knew why he was there. Every time he showed up, the women in the office would get all fired up, sneaking glances at him, completely 

distracted from their work. 

That afternoon, Lennon showed up again. 

He walked into Mariela’s office with ease, sat down on the sofa, and casually made himself a cup of coffee as if the law firm was his own. 

Without sparing him a glance, Mariela kept her eyes glued to the computer screen, typing up legal documents as if the elegant man sitting in her office was invisible. 

Lennon sat quietly on the sofa, sipping his coffee. 

He didn’t say a word, not wanting to disturb Mariela while she worked. 

After a couple of sips, he set the cup down on the coffee table. He casually crossed his long legs, his gaze falling on Mariela. 

From this angle, he had a clear view of her profile. 

She usually wore light makeup for work, with her long hair pinned up behind her head. Her light brown suit accentuated her beauty while giving off an air of confidence and professionalism. She looked like a strong, intellectual woman. 

Her skin was fair with a rosy glow. From the side, her nose looked even more defined, her long lashes fluttering cutely. 

Lennon’s deep eyes lingered on her, his Adam’s apple bobbing slightly. 

He thought inwardly, “She’s so beautiful. 

“I really want to kiss her.” 

Maybe sensing his intense gaze, Mariela turned to look at him.

Their gazes met. 

Lennon stared at her without flinching, his gaze direct and unapologetic. 

Mariela’s fingers paused on the keyboard, and her brow furrowed slightly.
