It was an acceptance letter for an internship as a paralegal at Rogard Law Firm, one of the top firms in the country I was heading to.
My chest loosened because I finally secured a place to start over. But more importantly, Rogard Law Firm was connected to the VIP patient from Houston Hospital.
I smiled with full intent, knowing I had finally taken a baby step toward real independence, and also toward my plan to dig up dirt on Houston Hospital myself.
I giggled and wiggled in my chair as joy washed over my entire body. I couldn't believe someone as meticulous as I had taken such a spontaneous initiative.
Who would've thought a girl who always imagined becoming a prosecutor would suddenly switch career and choose to be a lawyer who is the sworn enemy of prosecutors?
A giddy excitement bubbled up as I remembered when Rafael once asked what I was going to do with my future. I could finally answer him proudly—
Wait… why am I thinking about him?
