An Unbreakable Addiction

"Mr. Jasper has something very important to discuss with you, Mrs. Jasper. Would you mind coming to the office?" Sam's voice came through the phone.

Mia raised an eyebrow. "I've got work to do. If it's urgent, he can come to the law firm. If not, he'll have to wait until I'm done"

In the past, if Sam had called asking her to come to Hunter's office, she would have dropped everything and gone immediately. For her, Hunter was always the top priority. But now, with divorce on the horizon, there was no way she would rush to him at his beck and call. She wasn't about to drop her work just because he wanted to see her. "Alright then." Sam replied, slightly taken aback, before hanging up and relaying the message to Hunter in

his office

Hunter was surprised that Mia had refused to come see him. He remembered how she used to love visiting his office, often bringing handmade cookies, cakes, or tea she had prepared

"You did tell her it's something important, right?" Hunter questioned, convinced Sam hadn't made it clear enough, which led to her refusal.

Sam nodded, slightly insulted. He was a top-tier assistant. Of course, he had relayed the message properly

Hunter massaged his temples in frustration. "I'm transferring 5% of Genesis's shares from my grandfather* to Mia. Get the necessary staff to process the transfer today."

Hunter figured Mia was upset over the bracelet incident. Now that he was giving her a stake in Genesis, maybe she would stop being mad.

As Sam left to handle things, Hunter calmed himself with a cup of tea and dialed Mia's number

Mia, who was busy discussing case details with her assistant, frowned when she saw Hunter's name flash on her phone. She had already made herself clear to Sam. What was Hunter calling for now?Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Her assistant noticed her hesitation and teased, "What's up? Why aren't you answering? Is it one of your secret admirers?"

Mia was undeniably beautiful. Even with her usual cool and distant demeanor, she still had several admirers at the firm who couldn't help but be drawn to her.

Mia shook her head. "No, not at all. Just double check this document and contact the client to clanfy any discrepancies*

She excused herself from the office, finding a quiet comer before answering the call. "What do you want?

"Grandpa transferred 5% of Genesis's shares to you. The paperwork's ready, and I've arranged for the transfer to be finalized today. Get here now. Any delays are on you," Hunter said quickly, clearly trying to prevent her from hanging up. Mia remembered Mr. Jasper Sr.'s words about the shares. After a pause, she replied, "Bring back the family bracelet from Jenna, and I'll come sign."

Jenna flaunting something that rightfully belonged to her had gone too far.

Hunter's angry voice immediately came through the line. "Mia, don't push your luck! That bracelet ist coming back, and the shares are yours if you want them. If not, that's your problem He hung up abruptly

Mia stared at the phone, her expression cold and unreadable.

Just then, her phone chimed with a message. She tapped the screen to open it.

It was from an unknown number, but Mia knew right away it was Jenna
