Warm sunlight streams through the window into the Presidential Suite on the fifth floor of the Four Seasons Hotel Washington, D.C.

At the age of thirty-nine, Delia Keys's eyelids twitched slightly as the light shone on her head, and she finally woke up from her dream teased by the sun.

She sat up lazily from the bed, first lowered her head and closed her eyes to think about the experience of last night, and then raised her head and glanced at the young man beside her who was in full swing with good dreams and muscles.

It was a new trainee solicitor offered by a friend.

This kind of little boy who has just walked out of law school is shared with each other like a free cowherd by these women who are busy every day and can only rely on the call to solve their physical problems.

Last night, this guy, except for his poor skills, was quite palatable in other aspects.

She reached out and pinched the other person's chest muscles twice, savoring the sensation for a moment, and then walked naked to the bar, poured a quarter of a glass of whiskey, and drank it.

The trainee lawyer also woke up at this time, rubbed his eyes, and then walked out of bed like Delia, wanting to gently hug the woman who was not much younger than his mother from behind, and show his charm as much as possible.

"You've got ten minutes to wash up, get dressed, and get out of here." Delia seemed to guess what the other party was going to do, put down the wine glass, and said in a cold voice.

The man paused for a moment, but he didn't dare to step forward and hug each other, so he could only spread his hands on the spot: "Why? Ms. Case? We had a lot of fun last night. ”

"You said it was last night, the first two times maybe I was happy, but the third time I was unhappy, you have to learn how to last with the Cowherd." Delia turned around, leaned on the bar, looked at the trainee lawyer, and said expressionlessly:

"As a lawyer, my energy is too poor and I can only wait to be eliminated."

"The ......one you said she would recommend for me to join," the trainee solicitor asked with a depressed face.

"When you go to the Cowherd training class to get your graduation certificate, and then your mother verifies your progress again, she will think about it, and now you can go." Delia picked up a cigarette and lit it in her mouth, interrupting the other party's words, and said in a very ruthless tone.

The trainee solicitor rolled her eyes and turned to walk towards the messy laundry on the floor, and Delia lit her cigarette:

"By the way, you can learn yoga to make your ass more upright, baby, you will definitely be more pleasing to your mother by then."

At this time, a hurried doorbell rang outside the door, and the trainee solicitor, who was lifting her pants, glanced at Delia a little nervously, but Delia stood behind the bar with an indifferent face, and continued to pour whiskey for herself, urging in an impatient tone:

"Go open the door, if you want me to teach you this kind of work, you might as well take the cowherd as your main business, because your head is useless, and you can only barely rely on the ** below to make a living."

The trainee lawyer walked over quickly and opened the door of the guest room, and saw the person outside the door, a little embarrassed, but also relieved, outside the door was Delia's assistant Kane, who lowered his head slightly, did not look into the other party's eyes, and whispered: "Mr. Kane Fan." ”

However, Kane ignored the little rookie's greeting, and directly pushed him away and walked in, and when he saw Delia still standing calmly in front of the bar drinking, he exhaled speechlessly:

"Delia ......"

"You'd better have something important, or you should be able to see that I'm discussing the malpractices of American justice with my studious junior jurisprudence." Delia drank the whiskey in her mouth:

"Can't you just leave a message on my pager or call the hotel lobby? Do you have to come to see me at six o'clock in the morning? ”

Kane took off his expensive watch and threw it to Delia: "It's 8:40, Delia, you're pager off." ”

Delia glanced at the time on her watch, immediately threw away her wine glass and cigarette, scolded Shit in her mouth, and walked quickly towards the bathroom:

"I shouldn't have agreed to the hotel's suggestion to help me upgrade the presidential suite for free last night, you can imagine, the premium suite where I live is 200 square meters, and the more expensive presidential suite is only 170 square meters, and the worst thing is that the sun enters the room later than the premium suite, and the sun will shine into the bedroom on time at six o'clock in the premium suite."

"Don't be nervous, I'm not surprised." Kane saw that the trainee lawyer's button-up hand was trembling slightly, and opened his mouth to comfort:

"Older female lawyers are going to be anxious and a little nervous because of the stress, go have breakfast, calm down, and learn to enjoy this kind of free part-time night before your thirtieth birthday, or before you get out of the business."

At this time, Delia had already walked out with a toothbrush in her mouth, brushing her teeth while putting on her corset with one hand, and then walked up to Kane, turned her back to Kane, and motioned for the other party to help fasten the button.

At this time, she also finished brushing her teeth, threw the toothbrush directly on the ground, picked up the water to rinse her mouth, glanced at the trainee lawyer who was quietly opening the door and leaving, and said to Kane: "That guy is far worse than you, I really miss you when you were young, Kane." ”

"If you still want me to help you be an assistant for a few more years, don't beat my idea again." Kane said with a smile.

At the same time, she helped Delia hand over the clothes one by one, and Delia asked while dressing, "What are the arrangements for this morning?" ”

"Nine o'clock is the regular meeting of partners, and then there is a business that you asked the branch office to make an appointment for you before, Actor Company, the founder is a Stanford college student, you said before that you were interested in this business, and the other party was very excited, so I flew from California to meet you face-to-face, and made an appointment with them to start at nine o'clock, but at the end of the regular meeting at nine o'clock, it is not a big problem for you to contact them again, I helped you make a decision about the length of the conversation with the other party for about 40 minutes, and take a break for half an hour. And then I met with Mr. Krauss, the chairman of the Washington Judicial Forum, and at noon, as an external legal counsel to Compaq, I had lunch with the leadership team who flew to Washington, D.C., they have some lobbying business in Washington, and I hope you can give them some ideas......" Kane opened up as Delia's work schedule for today.

"OK, that's enough, it's enough by noon." Delia quickly put on her women's uniform suit, and combed her short silver-white hair with her ears exposed.

In the mirror, she has once again become the expressionless, domineering independent woman, the first female partner of Davis Polk in 140 years.

She nodded in satisfaction, turned to her assistant and said:

"Let's go, put on our clothes, and it feels good to become a believer in God again."

Kane followed behind her, and said as he walked: "Your ex-husband called the office last night, I answered the phone, and he asked if you had time, if you would like to have a remarriage trip with him, he could book a European sightseeing cruise......"

"He still thinks that I didn't remarry him because I was simply obsessed with work? No, it's true that I'm obsessed with work, but his ability to do that also accounts for a considerable part of the divorce factor. Delia stepped on her high heels, stepped into the elevator, the elevator door slowly closed, she spoke lightly, there was no banter in her tone, only the calm and indifference of the lawyer talking about work:

"Tell me about Actor and remind me why it appeals to me."
