Good.

I’ve already had a phone call from Adam Blackmore’s lawyer—Warren Van-fucking-Guard—and things are going to get messy before this is over.

“Mrs.Blackmore.”I toss my pen onto the files in front of me and cross my arms as I lean back as I straighten my tie.“Your husband is a very rich man.He’s indicated you are to get nothing out of this divorce.I want to know why.”

Her face pales as her mouth parts.

“That’s impossible.I’ve done nothing to deserve that.”

They all say that.

“To help me do my job, and do it to the best of my ability, I need to know all the dirt you probably don’t want to share.All of it.”

She swallows.

There it is.

Courtney Blackmore has secrets.Unfortunately, my cock keeps interrupting my train of thought, especially when her wet lips part like that, and I wonder if she’s more of a sucker or takes cock all the way down her throat.

Fair question for a man like me.

But not when I’m at work.

I’m pissing myself off.

Clearing my throat to get my mind back in the game, I hold up two hands in question and wait for her to start talking.

“What grounds would he have for me not to be entitled to my rights?”

She’s referring to his ten billion.

“We understand there is no prenup, correct?”Sean asks.

“No, he never asked me to sign one.”

Idiot.

“There can be some adjustments if there is major overspending by one spouse, but it would need to be substantial,” Jason shares.

I study her reactions, wondering what she is keeping from us.

“Financials aside, the state law allows judges to alter asset distribution over non-economic misconduct.But only if the behavior is deemed to be ‘egregious,’” I say, my eyes never leaving her face.“The threshold is incredibly high and would have to be so outrageous that it shocks the conscience of the court.The judge.”

Courtney blinks.

“What sort of misconduct?”

“Well, I would hope that we’d know if either of you were involved in such matters.So, unless you have something to share...”I lean forward and pick up my pen, letting that hang in the air.

She glances from face to face.

Swallows again.

My dick notices.

“No, I can’t think what an example would be.Nor do I have one that refers to our divorce.”

We shall see.
