8 “I Hope That’s Not A Threat.”
As Sophia stepped out of the sleek chrome elevators the following day, she found the usual hum of office gossip conspicuously absent. Instead, the atmosphere was charged with focused productivity. The air reverberated with the clicking of keyboards, the persistent ringing of phones, and the steady whir of the copy machines.
Before Sophia could even shut the door to her office, Trevor burst in, loaded with stacks of case files.
“Good morning, Trevor,” Sophia greeted him with a yawn, the lingering effects of last night’s whiskey leaving her slightly foggy.
“Good morning, Ms. Johnson,” Trevor responded, his voice brimming with eagerness.
“All right, I can see you have some important matters. Let’s dive right in,” Sophia said, sitting at her desk while Trevor settled into a plush wingback chair opposite her. He flashed a reassuring smile and placed the first case file before her.
“We have two major cases on our plate. The first is an antitrust investigation involving the Dillon Corporation,” Trevor began. “They’re under scrutiny by regulatory authorities, accused of unfair business practices, price fixing, and monopolistic behavior.”
Sophia took the brief and perused it carefully, jotting down some notes. She looked up at Trevor and instructed, “Start by assembling a team to conduct an extensive documentation analysis. Have Jake and Katie interview key personnel. Once we have all the information, we’ll convene a meeting to devise a comprehensive defense strategy.”
Trevor nodded attentively, his pen flying across the notepad as he scribbled down her instructions.
“Next,” Sophia chimed in, her enthusiasm bubbling to the surface. This was where she thrived, in the midst of challenging legal battles.
