Chapter 132 Smooth Feeling
With her mood improved, Queenie became more talkative.
She pouted and glared at Benoit. "You have no idea. The police came looking for me today, asking about those black stockings. I was terrified. If it weren't for Kate, I wouldn't know what to do!"
After taking a sip of her drink, Queenie asked again, "I heard from my colleagues that Kate is one of the best lawyers in Coast City, expensive and hard to hire. Is that true?"
"Well, sort of," Benoit nodded.
"Then how did you manage to get an appointment with him? I heard appointments for his cases are booked until next year."
Benoit smiled. "He's my exclusive lawyer."
"Exclusive?" Queenie was momentarily puzzled.
Benoit patiently explained. "Yes, we signed a long-term cooperation agreement. All legal disputes related to my business are handled by him. Even if he takes on other projects, he must turn them down if I have any needs."
"Oh, I see! Honey, have you seen Kate in action at the court? He was amazing today. Wearing glasses and so refined. I didn't expect him to be so impressive," Queenie expressed her admiration for Kate with a full face of adoration.
Benoit's eyes flickered with sourness as if his teeth were aching.
Glasses again! It seemed that Queenie really liked men wearing glasses.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and discreetly sent a WhatsApp message to Kate, "Starting today, no glasses allowed."
Kate replied, "Boss, I'm nearsighted. It's different from yours. Yours are plain glasses."
Benoit replied without room for refusal, "Then wear contact lenses!"
Kate asked, "Did my glasses offend you?"
Benoit said, "If you're unwilling, we can cancel our long-term cooperation..."
Kate quickly responded, "Just kidding, boss. I'll immediately go and buy contact lenses!"
Queenie was unaware of the content of Benoit's WhatsApp message, and she continued to praise Kate.
She playfully glared at Benoit. "It's all your fault! That pair of black stockings..."
"Wow, over 3,000 dollars for a pair of stockings! Brand new... and you just tore them like that."
But to be honest, even if she knew that those black stockings were evidence against her, she couldn't wear them again.
Benoit smiled and took out several beautifully packaged boxes from the gift bag by his side, handing them to Queenie. "It's all my fault. These are apology gifts."
Queenie's mood brightened a bit when she saw the gifts.
There was no girl who didn't like receiving gifts.
"Can I open them now?"
Benoit raised an eyebrow. "It doesn't matter, but it would be better to open them at the apartment."
Upon hearing him say that, Queenie didn't open the gifts. Instead, she quickly started eating the food on the table like an impatient child who couldn't wait to go home and open presents.
When they arrived at the Bund Bay apartment, Queenie opened the first beautifully packaged box.
To her surprise, it was a pair of black stockings, same as the ones she wore last night!
Queenie was stunned. "Are these stockings really worth over 3,000 dollars?"
Benoit nodded. "They contain 55% natural silk, so they are more expensive."
But they felt so smooth!
This brand was really good.
"I'll compensate you." Benoit smiled warmly, with gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, appearing innocent with no ulterior motives.
Queenie suppressed her strange feelings and opened the second exquisite gift box.
Inside was another pair of black stockings!
But this pair was black fishnet stockings, sexier and daring in style.
Queenie was perplexed as she opened the third gift box.
It was again a pair of black stockings!
But this one was a crotchless suspender stockings, with the stockings connected to lace thong panties, exuding a distinctive vibe.
Seeing that design, Queenie's cheeks instantly turned red.
Benoit slowly pushed his wheelchair to her side and pointed to the largest-size black stockings, whispering, "Queenie, would you wear this tonight for me to see? Is that okay?"
