Alpha's Regret the Luna is Secret Heiress (by Sylvia) novel Chapter 50

Chapter 29: Predators and Prey–2

She was exactly the kind of lawyer I would normally champion – intelligent, well–spoken, with impressive credentials and a quiet confidence. Under different

circumstances, I might have taken her under my wing.

But circumstances weren’t different. I had my orders from Vanessa Reed, and my

own ambitions to consider. Those Rivers pack lawsuits worth millions would secure

my position at Moonlaw for years to come.

Still, as I watched Olivia disappear into the elevator, I couldn’t help feeling a twinge of

guilt for what was to come.

(Olivia’s POV)

On my first day officially joining Moonlaw, Amber Foster met me in the lobby, her professional smile firmly in place.

“Welcome to Moonlaw, Miss Winters. Let me show you around.”

She escorted me through the firm’s vast headquarters, introducing me to colleagues and explaining the workplace structure. The building was impressively organized, divided into distinct departments.

“Business Department handles client outreach and securing cases,” Amber explained as we passed a bustling open office. “Litigation is where you’ll be, focusing on court disputes. We also have Non–litigation for corporate advisory, debt collection, and contract review services. And of course, Finance and HR, which function like any corporate departments.”

Each area had its own supervisor, with Heather Phillips overseeing Litigation while actively practicing law herself. Altogether, Moonlaw’s main office housed over twenty lawyers, each with their own specialties and case loads.

“Normally, every two attorneys share a private office,” Amber continued, leading me down a hallway lined with glass–walled offices. “Here’s yours.”

She opened the door to reveal a spacious office with two desks. A man in his forties looked up from his computer and smiled.

“Olivia, this is Gregory Thompson, your office partner,” Amber introduced. “Gregory,

this is Olivia Winters, our newest litigation attorney.”

Gregory stood and extended his hand. “Welcome aboard.”

As I settled at my desk, Heather appeared in the doorway, wearing an apologetic

expression.

“Olivia, usually each lawyer has an intern assistant,” she explained. “But two interns recently completed their training and left, so we haven’t filled the vacancies yet. You’ll have to manage solo for now – sorry for the extra work.”

I nodded calmly. “No problem. I can handle the workload independently.”

“Good,” Heather smiled before leaving.

Gregory looked up from his computer screen with a friendly nod. “Hello there. I’m Gregory Thompson. We’ll be colleagues from now on.”

“Nice to meet you,” I replied politely, beginning to organize my workspace.

The morning passed quickly as I familiarized myself with Moonlaw’s case

management system. At noon, my phone buzzed with notifications from the office group chat.

A male colleague whose name I didn’t recognize yet had posted: “Hey everyone! We have two new faces joining us this week – Olivia Winters and Grace Winters. Let’s welcome them properly! Dinner after work today, new folks treating!”

Several colleagues immediately responded with enthusiastic agreement.

I frowned slightly, puzzled by this unexpected “tradition.” Was this customary at Moonlaw? To clarify, I quietly asked Gregory, who was reviewing documents at his

desk.

“Is it normal for new hires to treat everyone to dinner?” I asked.

Gregory looked surprised, then shook his head. “No, there’s never been such a

‘tradition‘ before.”
