Tyrone instantly mellowed, resembling a dog that had just been petted the right way, almost snuggling up to Quintessa for more affection.
Alexander's face turned a shade paler, but somehow, in the blink of an eye, he had an epiphany. It was as if his mind had cleared, reminiscent of the moment of enlightenment often spoken about in spiritual circles. Perhaps it was the culmination of continuous setbacks that led to this moment of clarity, a kind of “two wrongs make a right” realization. Maybe after enough hits, one finally sees the light.
Alexander managed a smile. “You know, you two don’t have to put on an act in front of me. If I were the type to give up easily, I would've done so long ago. And if I wanted to fight for her, I would've already been in the fray.”
Tyrone scoffed. “Ha, as if. Who's pretending? Can't you see this is genuine?”
Ignoring him, Alexander turned to Quintessa. “I won’t force you to make any decisions. I respect you. Just know that if… one day he lets you down, I’ll always be here waiting for you.”
Tyrone made a face. “Playing the sympathy card, huh? That kind of role went out of style on TV a long time ago.”
Still, Alexander didn’t bite. He continued, “Seriously though, if you ever need legal advice, you know where to find me. I’ll give you a discount.”
Tyrone frowned. “As if we need your help. Do you think my team of legal advisors are just for show? And you have the audacity to talk about fees? Some monk who’s just returned from abroad, do you even understand how things work here? You think Quinn’s money is easy to come by? Giving it to you would be like throwing it away.”
Alexander’s lips quirked up, his pallor giving way to his usual charismatic and refined demeanor.
“I guarantee, I can outdo any of them and help you... win any case.”
Quintessa nodded. “Okay!”
