As much as she wanted to help her client, she couldn't trouble Ryan Sterling with something like this.
He was already busy with work, and she had already troubled him so much with her own lawsuit!
If she let Ryan Sterling interfere in her work matters again, Evelyn Grant would feel too guilty.
"I want you to be happier. This is for our child, too! The doctor said that when the mother is in a good mood, the fetus can sense it! If you're happy, our baby will be happy too."
"I'm not really worried about anything right now. Work stress is unavoidable, but I can handle it myself."
Seeing how insistent Evelyn Grant was, Ryan Sterling didn't press the issue.
In the afternoon, her remote workday ended, and she returned to the law firm.
The moment she walked in the door, two colleagues who had been talking saw Evelyn Grant and immediately stopped their conversation. They smiled and waved hello, but the whole thing felt very strange!
It was as if everyone was avoiding her.
