The courtroom, with its imposing atmosphere and silent watchers, was a world familiar to Evelyn. She watched her replacement, a young lawyer named Jack, take his seat. Evelyn felt a gentle swell in her chest.

Evelyn spent the day going through files, and explaining what she had learned in the legal profession. She gave Jack all of her notes and gave him advice on how to win cases.
