Louis never thought you’d last this long. Honestly, he’d practically encouraged you to quit. When you first started working at Person Hardman as a paralegal, he could not stand your go-getter, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed attitude. He thought for sure you’d be crushed by the weight of the expectations he set upon you.
