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 girlfriend anymore.

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 a chance to talk to him." Esther sensed that this woman was only interested in James's good looks and wanted to flaunt herself 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.
The woman's jealousy flashed briefly before she composed herself. "Of course not. So you're his ex. That's why you're dressed like..." 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 walking all over her just because she was polite? Esther straightened up, crossed her arms, and gave the woman a once-over. "What's wrong with the way I dress? I don't see any issue.

She weakly retorted, "I'm not trying to compete with you." Esther glanced at the woman's chest with disdain. "If you're so conservative, why did you unbutton two 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. The woman criticized Esther for not dressipoet" 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 accidentally popped open. Don't assthings." Esther found the woman repulsive. "Oh, sparethe excuses. With your size, there's no way it could burst open." Unable to cup with a retort, the woman retreated into the firm, closing the doors and glaring at Esther triumphantly, as if to say, "See, you can't get in'.
Esther was fed up with the woman's behavior but didn't know what to do. She took out her phone to call James, but he was on another call.
