Chapter 119 Good night, Miss Sophia
At twelve o'clock in the morning, Sophia yawned, with a small trolley case in front of her, standing on the side of the road outside her postgraduate dormitory building and looking around, looking like a young girl who was about to elope with someone.
Tommy Hawk drove the battered stingray slowly from a distance, finally stopped in front of her, lowered the car window and greeted Sophia: "Good evening, Sophia, it seems that going to meet the idol is not enough. cheer you up."
"The main reason why I can't cheer up is that you chose a red-eye flight to save money." Sophia opened the trunk angrily, put her trolley case in, and then sat in the co-pilot's seat, looking at the stingy and unscrupulous Tommy Hawke:
"Can't you fly there during the day, stay in a hotel for one night, and meet that Ms. Delia Keith the next day? Red-eye flights have strict requirements on passengers' belongings, and I can't even bring a few more sets. clothing."
I thought this **** should be as sleepy as me, but at this moment Tommy looked radiant, with a sharp face, paired with a monotonous black suit, white shirt, and dark blue tie, giving him a sense of drowsiness. It was a very cold feeling, even with that blond hair, Sophia still couldn't feel Tommy's sunny temperament.
"Fortunately, you are still alive." Sophia put her finger in front of Tommy's nose to feel his breathing, and then shook the small cross hanging on the car to Tommy to make sure that Tommy had no abnormal reaction, and then Fasten your seat belt and breathe a sigh of relief:
"Recently, "The Exorcist" was replayed on TV. The way you dress late at night made me think you were possessed by a demon."
After helping this guy with some part-time jobs related to legal affairs, Sophia has noticed that this guy named Tommy Hawk has many faces, and the face he wears can be adjusted at any time according to the different environments he is in.
He acts like a friendly country boy in front of the camera to ordinary people in Florida. When the **** even sells software, he will deliberately amplify his Northeastern accent, just to increase the familiarity.
When he needs to accompany him to consult with his law school teacher, this **** will become a gentleman with a strong thirst for knowledge and good manners, adding honorifics to every sentence the teacher utters.
Facing his fellow SSD fraternity brothers, like an idiot who let himself go.
If she hadn't seen the other side of him, Sophia wouldn't have believed that this guy was capable of setting up an inflatable swimming pool in the front yard of a fraternity house, and then he and a group of fools jumped into it from the balcony on the second floor.
The purpose of diving is not to participate in the Olympics, but to deliberately splash large waves to wet the clothes of the girls who came to participate in the small public welfare exchange meeting, so that the shirts of those girls will be wet, and stage a wet temptation, even if they are chased and beaten by a group of girls , he just really laughed like an idiot, completely unable to see that under the appearance of an idiot, there was an ambitious soul who wanted to overthrow Lotus.
Get along with Holly, this guy will always deliberately show that he is smarter than Holly, so that Holly always wants to be outdone and win the round.
Getting along with Susan, he is like Susan's father or brother, tolerant of all the mistakes of that woman, making Susan work harder in guilt.
Getting along with Mark is more like an abettor, constantly encouraging Mark to complete some data collection work that may be illegal for him that he would never do.
Getting along with Jason... Probably the relationship between these two guys is a bit complicated. They are each other's father and each other's son. They hate each other extremely, and at the same time they think of each other when they need help.
When getting along with himself, the **** Tommy vividly interprets the face of a capitalist who should be sent to the gallows, that is, absolute stinginess.
This **** can even finish the meeting with himself, because he has no change in his pocket because he has to go on a date with his girlfriend, he borrows money from himself who is already in arrears to buy Torjan, and then resigns afterwards as if nothing happened. However, that **** can always find all kinds of gimmicks to attract him, so that he can continue to help him.
"I think you look like the White House bodyguard of the Secret Service in the movie. Are you going to see Delia Keyes or Ronald Reagan?" Sophia pushed the black frame on the bridge of her nose , asked Tommy who was driving.
"Do you know what is the most important thing about meeting a lawyer? To be honest, when many people meet a lawyer for the first time, because they feel that the lawyer is a stranger in their hearts, they habitually put on an act, say something that I don't know, and then The lawyer earned his consulting fee, went around and investigated a lot, and found that the evidence pointed to him. It took a long time, and finally returned to the situation when he first met with the lawyer. He will say this time, yes , I did." Tommy Hawke turned off the car radio, did not ask Sophia's plan at all, and directly lit a cigarette by himself:
Sophia leaned her head on the back of the chair, looking at the night view of Stanford outside the window: "Do you think you are really sure to persuade Ms. Delia Keith to take your order? As far as I know, those large firms with white shoes , seldom accept business that is not well-known, such as Actor, a small company that is not well-known.”
"Miss, everyone in Actor Company except Susan thought it was impossible for me to sell a set of software in Florida, but now in the past two weeks, I have sold 8,000 sets. Poor ghosts have the best money." Earn, what's the next sentence?" Tommy asked rhetorically while holding the steering wheel.
Sophia replied casually: "The rich have the hardest money?"
"No, I'd rather change it to another one. She has the most greedy heart. It may be difficult to earn money, but it can satisfy her inner greed. Asking her for a favor is not too difficult. It's a completely different conversation with a ghost." Tommy said calmly:
"A process of filling each other's inner desires."
Davis Polk Law Firm is headquartered in New York, but it has twelve offices in the United States, and California, a land full of rich people, has two exclusive offices, so that rich people can choose nearby.
The Northern California office is located in San Francisco, and the Southern California office is located in Los Angeles, but Tommy did not choose these two offices. Instead, he and Sophia flew to Washington, because the partner named Delia Case People are not in California, but in Washington, DC.
Delia Keith, after initial communication with Holly, expressed some interest in this single business, but hoped to have a face-to-face chat, but for a young man like Tommy, he wanted to count on a white-shoe lawyer The partner of the firm deigned to fly here to chat with him, which is tantamount to nonsense. The best way is not to regard yourself as a potential employer, but a small role with needs, and fly to Washington obediently.
So Tommy thoughtfully chose a cheap red-eye flight that took off late at night for himself and Sophia, so he slept for five or six hours in the economy class of the plane. Leah Keys meets.
When the two boarded the plane and took their seats, Sophia was so sleepy that she could barely open her eyes. She looked out of the dark window, then looked at Tommy who was sitting next to him, thinking about something, and asked:
"What are you thinking about?"
"Aren't you sleepy, Miss Sophia?" Tommy turned his head, looked at the brown-haired girl who looked a bit like Otilia, and asked with a smile.
He didn't understand why women like Sophia and Otilia, who looked silly and cute, would go to study boring law. Become a court clerk or a judge's clerk for a day.
"Not too sleepy. If you want to talk about the precautions after arriving in Washington, I have no problem." Sophia tried her best to drive away the drowsiness, and said to Tommy with a smile, but she actually had another plan in her heart. Chatting with Tommy was just her Pave the way for something else.
It's just that Tommy didn't give her any chance to pave the way. This guy simply took out the blindfold and put it on his head, and said sincerely to Sofia:
"I'm almost sleepy. If you're not sleepy, can I lean on your shoulder to sleep for a while? The back of the plane's seat is too hard, my cervical spine is not good, and you don't want me to see Delia At the time, he tilted his neck, not like the founder of the company, but more like a victim of some kind of case.”
"You are such a jerk, Tommy Hawk, you successfully finished the line I wanted to say." Sophia's voice was so desperate that she was about to cry:
"I originally wanted to listen to a few words from you perfunctorily, and then politely suggested that the back of the chair is too hard, can I lean on your shoulder to sleep for a while, you knew I was going to do that early in the morning, so you deliberately said it first, right? "
"Next time, remember to talk to the country people. It's better to be straightforward. Although I don't have the money to pay you, I don't mind being a gentleman." Tommy reached out and took off the glasses on Sophia's face, and took off his own blindfold. Help the other person put it on carefully, make sure that the blindfold covers the other person's eyes, and will not be stimulated by the light again, and gently lean the other person's head on your shoulder:
"Good night, Miss Sophia."
Just one update tonight, three changes tomorrow... Please bear with me
It’s not that I’m being lazy, it’s just that I’m going to try to look up some legal details and information about the software industry later. After all, fooling lawyers is different from fooling ordinary people.
