Chapter 101: Powerhouse Group of Best Friends
Rain’s father-in-law had arrived, heading straight toward a group of men his age. But during his interactions, he still managed to glance at Rain, accompanied by a nod and a warm smile. It was subtle, almost unnoticed by those around him, but Rain caught it immediately, returning his gesture with a small smile of her own.
Since Alexander stepped away for a private conversation with Vernice for a while, Rain continued to look around the gallery with Eric by her side. She paused at a table, picking up a glass of fresh juice from a waiter, while Eric opted for a glass of wine.
Without warning, Eric handed her his business card. "Keep this and stay in touch, just in case you change your mind. The prosecution office can be tough, and the pay isn’t great. If you ever want a change, you’re welcome at our firm."
Rain smiled as she looked at the card. "I appreciate the offer, Eric. To be honest, the prosecution office was always my top choice. Your firm, The Titans Law Firm, was second, and Smith Law Firm came third." She paused, then added with a grin, "But when Paul and I got together, he convinced me to stay with Smith Law Firm after passing the bar."
She then turned to Eric, her eyes playful. "Don’t worry, though. If things don’t work out in the prosecution office, your firm is next on my list. But I doubt it’ll come to that. I have a knack for making things work, even when they’re difficult."
Eric blinked, clearly impressed. "I can see that. You don’t give up easily, do you?"
Rain chuckled. "Not at all."
As she glanced over at her father-in-law, she noticed the men gathered around him, particularly Eric’s father, sneaking curious glances in her direction. Quickly and discreetly, she shifted her position to avoid their gaze, maintaining her poise with a subtle smirk.
Eric noticed the movement and tilted his head in amusement. "Seems like you’re attracting a lot of attention."
