Chapter 256

With all the preparations complete, Tessa's Everbright Law Group officially opened for business.

That day, she received a long-awaited phone call.

"Tessa, do you still remember me? It's Molly."

Tessa was pleasantly surprised. It had been a long time since she had last spoken to Molly Fisher.

"Of course, I remember. I still have your number saved."

Molly had been an intern lawyer at the firm where Tessa worked in Haverford. She was also Tessa's assistant back then. Before leaving, Tessa had told her that if she ever needed a place to go, she was welcome to join her.

Molly said, "Tessa, I've finished my internship, and I passed the bar association interview. I wanted to ask if your offer still stands."

"Congratulations! Of course, you can come. My law firm just opened, so you're welcome anytime," Tessa said with a genuine smile.

"Really? Then, I'll come right away! As long as you don't mind having me, of course." Molly sounded overjoyed.

Tessa laughed. "Why would I mind? I practically trained you myself. I'm in Rivertown now. I'll send you the address."

Molly was thrilled. "Okay! I'll book my ticket right now!"

When Uriah, Tessa's cousin, found out that she had opened her own law firm, he immediately helped her recruit two highly skilled and well-known lawyers.

In a private dining room at a restaurant, Uriah introduced the two lawyers to her.
