His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 246

Lately, Tessa had been busy with location scouting and recruitment.

After checking out several options, she finally settled on a building in the heart of Rivertown's bustling downtown. She leased an entire floor to set up her law firm and named it Everbright Law Group.

According to the country's legislation, a law firm partner had to have at least three years of practicing experience.

Tessa had already built up three years of experience at Haverford. After moving back to Rivertown, she spent another six months practicing at Shelton Law Firm.

But even then, recruiting a few more partners wasn't easy for her.

Back then, Uriah had introduced her to several well-known lawyers in Rivertown. Yet, the majority had gone independent, started their own firms, and become partners themselves.

Per the statute, a lawyer couldn't practice at two firms at the same time. They also couldn't be a partner at more than one firm.

As a result, Tessa struggled to find a suitable partner for her firm.

…

That day, Tessa was having afternoon tea with Sienna and Naomi at Bravura Patisserie.

Sienna had heard that Tessa was starting her own law firm, so she had a recommendation for her.

Sienna asked, "Have you heard of Lester Cooper? He was in our year, but he studied at the neighboring University of Political Science and Law."

Rivertown University was the top university in the country, and all three of them had graduated from there.

When it came to law and political science, Rivertown's University of Political Science and Law ranked second. It was just behind the one in Jordanville.

Tessa replied, "Lester Cooper? I don't really remember, but the name sounds familiar."

Naomi smacked the table. "How could you not know him? He was the heartthrob of their university! Back then, people from our school and theirs were always comparing him to Stephen. You seriously don't remember him?"

Tessa tried to recall the memory but eventually shrugged. "I really don't remember. Don't you know me well enough? I never cared about that kind of stuff and wasn't into socializing. The campus heartthrob had nothing to do with me."

Naomi shook her head. "Yeah, that checks out. Back then, your entire world revolved around studying. While everyone else was out dating on weekends, you were buried in books at the library.
