This time, it's Vivian's turn to feel awkward. She stammered as she spoke to the administrative staff, "No... that's not it. It's about a debt lawsuit."
"Oh, sorry about that." The administrative staff quickly looked at them and corrected themselves, "I just thought you looked particularly like a couple, that's why I said that. Since it's about a debt lawsuit, let me see..."
As she spoke, she flipped through the files on the computer, picked up the front desk phone, dialed an internal number, and said, "Hello, Lawyer Warren, there's a client here wanting to consult about a debt lawsuit. Do you have time now? Okay, okay... No problem."
After hanging up the phone, she stood up, smiled at Vivian and Ethan Hayes, and said, "Please follow me."
Vivian and Ethan Hayes exchanged a glance, and then followed the administrative staff into the law office.
Ten minutes later.
