Eric noticed her subtle hesitation. With a faint smile, he turned to her and said, his voice smooth yet sharp, "It seems you have something on your mind." Startled, Sabrina quickly stood, the nerves in her posture betraying her calm facade. "Hi, I'm Sabrina Blakely. I'm... I'm a lawyer, too." A stunned silence filled the space.
