“It’ll be fine. I’ll assist you.” Evelyn promised.

Serena nodded.

The client arrived at the law firm that afternoon.

“Ms. Steele, Ms. Dempsey, is the evidence enough to convict that b*stard?”

“Madam Cannon,” Serena started explaining. “The key issue we’ve reviewed is whether or not your daughter was forced into the sexual act against her will. The surveillance footage you’ve provided is very well–preserved, but since the report was made one month after the incident, it may be difficult for the police to collect additional evidence.

“On top of that, the defendant allegedly drugged her before the assault. I’m afraid that makes it even harder to verify the fact.”

“Does that mean my daughter won’t be able to win the case?” The client grew anxious.

She had no idea where he learned about so many different positions in bed–or how he never got bored with them.
