After giving it some thought, I asked, “Did you start the law firm to fulfill my wish, or do you have other

reasons?”

“Both. It will guarantee that no one can make things difficult for you, and it also has a role to play within

the Stovall family.” John paused for a moment as his gaze became serious. “Uncle Louis has begun to

make his move. After this, we will need a law firm we can control in anticipation of future lawsuits.”

I nodded in acknowledgment. Despite how good John was to me, that reason alone wasn’t enough to

have invested so much. It appeared that this law firm would have an important role to play in the future.

Perhaps, this might be the last place I’m able to showcase my talents.

After pondering upon it, I decided to accept John’s arrangement. “Fine, I’ll do it on one condition.”

“Go ahead. Even if you have ten, it won’t be a problem at all.” John acted generously as he was in a

good mood.

“Get that famous designer of yours to redesign the logo. As someone who hasn’t officially become a

practicing lawyer, it would be preposterous to have my name on the sign. It would be more appropriate to

use the Stovall name instead,” I explained.

Although Brooklyn didn’t fully introduce himself just now, he was likely a very experienced lawyer given

his demeanor. To have him work under me would be too much to ask of him. Furthermore, to have the

law firm named after me would be terrible for staff unity.

John readily agreed without a word of protest. “Sure. I’ll get him to redo it until you’re satisfied.”

“You don’t have to go back to him. Just leave it to me.” Suddenly interested, Emma remarked with her

hands on her hips, “Scarlett, what do you think about leaving this to me?”

“Is business at your company that bad? That you need to rely on friends for work?” John teased while

raising his eyebrows in curiosity.

“What do you care?” Emma rolled her eyes at him as she walked over to hold my arm. “This is between

Letty and me. What’s wrong with me doing this for free as it will be my gift for her grand opening?”

“Free?” John furrowed his eyebrow, skeptical of her words. “The logo represents the company’s image.

The design firm you work for is considered mediocre in K City. Are you sure you are able to design

something that lives up to the Stovall Corporation’s standards?”

“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Who says only a large firm can produce quality work? I just want to

design a logo for Letty because I like her. Do you have a problem with that?” Emma retorted.

“No, I don’t. But, to avoid any complaints in the future that will damage your company’s reputation, I

would advise you to reconsider in the interest of the bigger picture.”

“Who says I will definitely disgrace myself? I’m going to design something so amazing that it will shut you

up!”

“Stop!” I had no choice but to stop their argument from escalating any further. After all, their tempers

were beginning to flare. “It’s just a sign. The most important thing for a law firm is how many cases we

win. Aren’t both of you taking this too seriously?”

Right after I spoke, both of them looked at me in unison before turning their heads away.

“Pfft!” “Hmph!”

In the end, I had the final say and decided to let Emma do the design.

As Louis wanted to take action against Ezra’s men recently, John was supposed to help him. Hence,

John had to leave after tying up loose ends at the law firm.

As for Emma, she couldn’t wait to prove herself. Therefore, she returned to her office to work overtime,

ignoring the fact that it was her day off.

As they took their leave one by one within half an hour, I was the only person left in the office.

“Those two really hate each other’s guts,” I couldn’t help but complain.

“Ms. Stovall.” Brooklyn suddenly entered with a bunch of documents in his hands. Standing right in front

of me, he placed them on my table.

“There are three cases here that involve contract disputes between some small companies. I’ve gone

through them and found them straightforward enough. I reckoned they will likely not cause you too much

trouble.”

Before I could be called to the bar, I needed to complete ten cases independently. It appeared that John

had informed Brooklyn about this.
