A handsome figure was standing next to the french window in the corridor. At the moment, he was looking at them with half a smile on his face. �Mr. CEO, you�re finally done with business. Do you have time to talk to me now?�

When Renee saw who it was, she suddenly felt the urge to run away.

Tsk, it never rains but it pours!

Haze looked at Renee casually with his hands in his pockets and said pointedly, �What a coincidence. You�re here too, Mrs. CEO�s wife. A wonderful show is about to begin. Why don�t you stay for the show, seeing that you�re one of the main protagonists?�

Renee was not stupid. She naturally heard the hidden meaning in Haze�s words.

It looked like his threat to expose her as Phoenix if she refused to work with him was not just an empty threat, but a real one!

Before Stefan transferred the law firm�s shares to her, her identity as Phoenix must remain a secret!

�The famous Haze! I�ve long been an admirer of your skills. Could I perhaps have a quiet word with you?�

Although it looked doomed, Renee was unwilling to give up. She decided to attempt a desperate Hail Mary.

You never know, Haze might take mercy on her plight and give her a chance.

�Of course.�

Haze�s long, narrow eyes shined with a glint of cunningness as he said with a smile, �Since the CEO�s wife personally requests it, who am I to refuse?�

Therefore, they both turned towards Stefan, who was standing between them.

The meaning was clear: Please step away for a moment.

Stefan�s already cold face was now covered in frost.

�You have five minutes.�

After telling Haze that with disdain, he walked into the CEO�s office without giving them a second glance. The cold air about him made him look like a walking iceberg, leaving a chill in its wake.

As soon as Stefan was gone, Renee dragged Haze to a dark corner, grabbed his throat with her long fingers, and fiercely pushed him against the wall. She said, �I warn you, you better not mess around. If you dare reveal my identity, I can�t promise I won�t break your neck!�

Haze was not scared at all. In fact, his eyes were sparkling with excitement. �Who would have thought that the great Phoenix isn�t only good at coding, she�s great at fighting too. How talented. Now I want to work with you even more. Ah, what should I do?�
