Estrella was somewhat surprised. Jason walked over, raised his hand to tousle her hair, then gently embraced her in his arms. “You’ve done a wonderful job,” he said gently.

Estrella, who had tirelessly defended her client with passion and dedication, had left Jason in awe. In the courtroom, she was a different person-focused, solemn, and dead serious-a stark contrast to the usually playful and cheery Estrella.

Estrella seemed to respect the law so much, Jason couldn’t help but wonder, did she really start that fire years ago?

With a faint smile, Estrella responded to Jason’s concern, “Thank you.”

This was the first case Jason had ever witnessed her handle since she started her career.

When Logan and the others saw Jason arrive, curiosity piqued in their minds, but they remained silent. Logan had already sensed something was off during the meeting at the resort but chose to keep his suspicions to himself.

After greeting Jason, Logan and the others decided to head back to the law firm, leaving Estrella and Jason behind.

Estrella mentioned she wanted to visit Ryan in prison, and Jason offered to accompany her. In the past, it was always Bryce accompanying Estrella.

Half an hour later, when Estrella arrived at the prison, Ryan had just been brought back.. The staff allowed them to meet despite the timing.

The connection between Estrella and Ryan seemed to go beyond the typical lawyer-client relationship. It was laced with a deeper sense of empathy.

On the visitor’s side of the table, Ryan, thinking Estrella was worried about his mental resilience, comforted her. “Ms. Estrella, thank you. I’m content with the two I have
