As the head of the law firm, he had met various people. Astin was a high-priority client, even among Celeta Chance’s clientele. Moreover, compared to Jeremy, the company’s owner, Yuris was much more polite. At least he didn’t pressure them to get straight to the point.15dd522e58a7a162

He was certain because it was his alma mater, but graduating at the top of Kisello wasn’t something that could be achieved with just average ability. Furthermore, Radia had entered at the top of her department and was the cherished student of the most famous legal scholar in the country.
