"What are you thinking about?"
Hearing the voice, Hester came to herself from the conversation that night. She shook her head slightly and concentrated on reading the documents in her hand. Since she had promised Austin, she had to read the information.
And Lucas' law office was no longer convenient to go back, so she registered and opened her own law office. It's better to be a boss by yourself than to be suppressed by others.
After hearing the news, Lucas called Jessie to be her assistant.
Hester was glad to accept this decision. In the past few days at home, as her assistant, Jessie naturally had a tacit understanding between the two.
"No, I'm not. I'm just not used to staying at home for such a long time."
Hester took a sip of the coffee and said with a bitter smile.
"I'm flattered, Miss April. I haven't been able to keep up with you since I took over the case. If you don't get used to it, then I've made no progress in the past few days, instead, I've regressed."
Jessie frowned and looked at Hester bitterly. She had thought that her study these days could help her. However she just came to help her sort out the documents.
"Don't be discouraged. When you were with me before, you were able to get involved in some cases. Naturally, you grew fast during that period of time."
Hester lowered her head and played with the cup in her hand, feeling a little guilty.
"But it's all my fault. If I hadn't resigned, you wouldn't have been stagnant because no one took care of you!"
Jessie was flattered by Hester's words. She had never complained about Hester. If it weren't for her, she wouldn't have been like this!
"Miss April, please don't say that! If you hadn't chosen me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to stay in this law office with my qualifications. How could I have such a good fortune today?"
Looking at Jessie's frightened face, Hester couldn't help but think of herself. She used to be so compliant, afraid that she would say something wrong and do something wrong.
After all, she had chosen Jessie for a little selfish reason. She didn't want her to take too many detours like her or be despised.
It was also because she felt the same way that she took special care of her. As long as it was her case, she would try her best to take Jessie with her and let her work together to accumulate some experience.
"Jessie, you have to remember that you are a good girl! You are the only Jessie in the world. You are the most special person in the world.
Maybe you are not so skillful, but you can work to the current position all depending on your own ability. So you don't have to feel inferior, understand?"
Tears welled up in Jessie's eyes as she looked at Hester. No one had ever said this to her. Her family were so indifferent to her, and naturally she was deeply moved.
She held Hester and burst into tears.
"Miss April, I will follow you all my life and repay you."
Hester's expression froze, and then she raised her hand and gently patted her back. She felt helpless but didn't stop her. It was better to say something frankly than to keep it in the bottom of her heart.
Yam took the food she made to the downstairs of the law office. After hesitating for a while, she walked in.
