In Search Of Dreams

Episode 23

“Mr. Carter, this case is going to trial in a
week,” Liam protests. “I know nothing about it. I
need time to prepare.”

“We can try to get it postponed, but I don’t think
that’ll be necessary. I’ve been looking over
Robert’s notes and papers, and everything is
very clear. I could handle this case if it were
going to trial tomorrow; you’ll be fine.”

“Why?”

“I have reason to believe that Rob is losing
his objectivity with his client,” he says, his face
a mask.

“Sir?”

“Liam, I want you to take over this case. You’ve
got more experience. I know your specialty is
business law, but this is a case dealing with a
business. He’s got four witnesses and enough
evidence to present a nearly iron-clad case. You
could do this in your sleep.”

“All right,” Liam sighs. “I’ll take this home and
look it over tonight.”

“Sorry to keep you late, Liam. Thank you.”

“Good night, sir.”
