Penny did have a point, but I didn't get the chance to think about it for long because that's when I finally saw the lawyer Lando had hired.
Honestly, I'd imagined someone who looked like Marissa: serious, strict, and a little intimidating. But the man standing in front of us was nothing like that.
He was dressed in a suit and tie, sure, but instead of the usual boring black or dark brown, he wore a light green suit that somehow made him look both friendly and approachable.
As soon as we arrived, he stood up with a friendly smile that instantly eased the tension in the room.
"Good evening, Mr. Brixton," he greeted warmly before turning to me and offering his hand. "You must be Ms. Orszebet. It's a pleasure to finally meet you."
I took his hand and smiled politely. "Nice to meet you too, Mr …?"
"Ethan Rowell," he said with an easy smile. "You can call me whatever you're comfortable with."
