The woman didn't look familiar, but she was pretty. She looked haughty and seemed to be hostile."Who are you? How could you just walk in?"
"... A friend," Esther replied hesitantly. They had broken up, so she couldn't claim to be his girlfriendanymore.
"Friend?" the woman scoffed, eyeing Esther up and down. "Why would Mister James be friends withsomeone like you?"
"What do you mean 'someone like me'? Why wouldn't he be friends with me?" Esther felt her angerrising.
The woman looked down on Esther. "Look at the way you're dressed. Our lawyer is a refined man,so he wouldn't mingle with someone like you."
Esther laughed bitterly. "You're new here, aren't you? You don't know anything."
The woman raised her chin defiantly. "Yes, I'm new, but I know him quite well. You wouldn't stand achance to talk to him."
Esther sensed that this woman was only interested in James's good looks and wanted to flauntherself in front of him to catch his attention. She wouldn't let someone like her near him.
"Do you know that I'm his ex-girlfriend?" Esther asked pointedly.

Esther's eyes almost shot fire. Why did this woman keep attacking her?
Observing the woman's arrogance, Esther decided to stand up for herself. This woman was walkingall over her just because she was polite?
Esther straightened up, crossed her arms, and gave the woman a once-over. "What's wrong withthe way I dress? I don't see any issue. And as for you, you're all covered up. You have a terriblefigure, don't you?"
The woman felt embarrassed, realizing her own lack of confidence. She weakly retorted, "I'm nottrying to compete with you."
Esther glanced at the woman's chest with disdain. "If you're so conservative, why did you unbuttontwo buttons? But it's pointless because there's nothing to see there anyway."
Having worked in the entertainment industry for a while, she was familiar with such tactics. Thewoman criticized Esther for not dressing modestly, yet she was the one trying to seduce James.She hated women like her.
The woman hastily covered her chest, feeling both embarrassed and enraged. "It accidentallypopped open. Don't assume things."
Esther found the woman repulsive. "Oh, spare me the excuses. With your size, there's no way itcould burst open."
Unable to come up with a retort, the woman retreated into the firm, closing the doors and glaring atEsther triumphantly, as if to say, ''See, you can't get in'.
