Alphas Claimed Mate

"Mr. Shaw, this way, please."

Hearing the voice from behind, Lele Wynn smiled as she rose from her chair and turned around... then, her mind went blank.

Minghao Shaw?

As the man in a tailored suit and exuding an air of nobility approached her, Leles professional smile slowly solidified, feeling as if all the blood in her body was flowing backward, making even breathing extremely difficult.

"Youre such a cheap woman, not worthy of my bed."

"Sending you abroad was already my limit; if you dont cooperate, Ill make you disappear forever."

...

Memories from five years ago flashed through Leles mind, her gasps growing labored, and the color draining from her small, delicate face.

It was him, who had trampled on her dignity without mercy, and it was also him who made her feel a humiliation she had never experienced before!

Her fingers, hanging by her sides, slowly clenched into fists, and Lele used all her strength to suppress the urge to tear the man in front of her apart.

She couldnt afford to be impulsive!

He was the boss of the client company, paying the law firm millions in legal fees each year; she couldnt let the business go sour on her watch.

Slowly raising her head, Lele struggled to maintain her smile and extended her hand towards Minghao, greeting him with professional grace, "Mr. Shaw, Im Lele Wynn from Goldwin Law Firm, nice to meet you."

Minghaos eyelids flickered, revealing undisguised contempt and disdain in his eyes.

"In Goldwin Law Firm, do they mistake public relations women for lawyers?"

The cold voice had barely fallen when Lele heard the two assistants behind Minghao let out faint snickers.

Lele naturally knew what Minghao meant.

Their one-night stand had always been a thorn in Minghaos side.

Her outstretched fingers trembled slightly, slowly retracting as she raised her clear gaze to look calmly into the mans eyes and smiled, "I wonder, Mr. Shaw, whether your company nurtures elites or fools?"

"What did you say?" The man immediately furrowed his brows.

He didnt expect that the woman who had been meek and submissive five years ago would dare to talk back to him.

"A commercial plot purchased by Shaw Industries a month ago was a resold land, yet no one noticed. Now the original owner has come knocking, demanding double compensation from Shaw. Tell me, Mr. Shaw, what kind of people do you have working for you?"

The mans dark eyes deepened, and he immediately turned to the two assistants, issuing a cold command, "Leave!"

The assistants scurried out of the office, and Minghao looked at Lele with a cold smile, his fingers suddenly clasping her chin, lifting it harshly, forcing her to meet his icy gaze.

"What are you doing back? Didnt I tell you never to show up in front of me again!"

Leles pretty face turned pale instantly, her nails digging deep into her palm.

Although they had been apart for five years, Minghao was, after all, her first and only man, and any sign of his disgust for her deeply affected her.

"If I had known the president of the client company was you, I would never have come, even if it meant death."

Lele forcefully pushed his hand away, her tone not showing any weakness.

Although she kept telling herself to be accommodating, Minghaos aggressiveness had already worn away all her patience.

"Oh? Miss Wynn is a good actress. You went to great lengths to climb into my bed, and afterwards, that pitiful look almost made me think you were framed."

Lele bit her lip, "Minghao Shaw, dont think youre the only one whos suffered. Sleeping with a man with severe mysophobia like you was disgusting for me too, you know?"

"What?" The mans gaze suddenly turned icy, his tall figure leaning in, trapping her firmly in front of the desk, "Say that again!"

Minghaos eyes seemed to want to swallow her alive, and Lele felt a chill in her heart, but she couldnt show weakness in front of him; what dignity would she have left then?

"Did I say it wrong? If I could do it over, I really wish I had never met you!"

The man pursed his thin lips, this blatant disdain causing an unprecedented irritation and strangeness in his heart.

He had never been spoken to like this, especially by a woman!

In River City, all he had to do was crook his finger, and women would swarm to him like schools of fish.

And this woman, she actually said she wished she had never met him.

It was... infuriating!

"You think I wanted to meet you? A man like you, whos money-hungry and vain, only makes me sick!"

Money-hungry, vain...

These words were like a thorn, piercing Leles heart.

She raised her hand to slap him, but as soon as her hand lifted, she forced herself to stop.

The reason she was here was not to clash with Minghao Shaw, but to solidify the client.

She had just returned to the country and wanted to establish herself in the law firm; she had to handle Minghao Shaw!

On second thought, Lele suddenly smiled, seemingly indifferent to Minghaos words, and the hand that was about to slap gently lifted, hooking around Minghaos neck, standing on her tiptoes, her red lips brushing against his ear, whispering softly, "Yes, I am a woman who loves vanity, and sleeping with you was premeditated. I was so happy when I got what I wanted."

Minghaos body stiffened.

Leles hand seemed to hook not only his neck but also his very soul.

His deep gaze fixed on the woman in front of him, her smile charming, her eyes seeming to hold a dazzling night sky, twinkling brightly.

His heart... moved inexplicably.

Minghao quickly stepped back, distancing himself from Lele.

This woman, who was a virtuous housewife five years ago, had become a temptress in five years?

The change was too fast.

"Lele Wynn, listen to me, I wont touch you a second time. No matter why youre back, dont scheme, and now, get out of my sight. The cooperation with Goldwin, from this moment on, is over!"

Lele was unfazed, chuckling, "Mr. Shaw seems a bit afraid of me."

"What?"

"If youre not afraid of me, why terminate the cooperation with Goldwin? Arent you afraid of being attracted to me?"

"Lele Wynn, youre crazy!"

"Thank you, Mr. Shaw, for still remembering my name." Lele smiled more gracefully, "If Mr. Shaw is not afraid, not guilty, then continue to give this case to Goldwin and me!"

Knowing that Lele was using a provocation tactic, Minghao still couldnt help but say, "Fine, but I warn you, if this lawsuit is lost, you wont be able to stand firm in River City!"

"Thank you, Mr. Shaw, for this opportunity, I will not let you down." Lele still smiled, but the smile didnt reach her eyes.

She picked up her briefcase, nodded politely to Minghao, "If Mr. Shaw has no other orders, Ill take my leave now."
