New York
Present time.

For the first time in months Ms. Shen had gone home.

The household employees had to do a double take when they saw the attorney drive up into the huge turn around driveway.

Everyone started to panic.
When Ms. Shen reappeared there was much shouting coming from her Judge Shen's study.

Her expensive heels clicking away and with each employees around the enormous residence scattered to the back already knowing what was happening soon after Judge Shen saw her.

She smirked as she watch them hide.

Was she really that bad?
She was, at times being a successful lawyer had made her lost touch with reality.

One could blame the lustrous Devil, Dylan Wang, but between those two no one knew who was the worst.

The world was going to melt plastic thin through the blazes of hell when they finally divulge their marriage announcement.

Darren cleared his throat greeting Shen Yue.

"Well you finally show-up. Poor Butler, he has missed your scorning. The maids cried for days, they didn't have anyone to yell at them!"

He was grinning, that happy fool face of his. Obviously no one missed her, only her father, but everyone knew how things always got out of hand with the Shen's.

"Paralegal Chen, I must admit, I do miss your stupidity. Tell the Judge I have to talk to him urgently. Might want to cancel a few meetings, this could affect his good mood."

Some noise came from the back, probably the house maids praying to their saints.

"They can't take anything, can they?" She flipped her hair and walked to the living room immediately locating the minibar.

"Why not ask an employee to make a drink for you Ms. Shen?"

She shrugged, "they always drop liquor on the floor, clumsiness becomes them."

Darren laughed, "that's because you make them nervous."

Shen Yue fend him away, "go Chen. Tell the Judge, and you can eavesdrop. I promise this is going to be you the biggest thrill of your life. I bet you won't be expecting this."

Darren Chen was full of curiosity.
What was she up to?

"As you wish my dear attorney. Don't scare anyone when I'm gone."

She crossed her heart cynically.
Everyone in the household expected hell to break loose.

Shen Yue had downed two drinks in 5 minutes when Darren was back.

"Shen Yue, your dad is waiting."
