Mark

You are a grown man, middle-aged, single and live alone. You worked as a lawyer, dedicating your entire life to this work. You loved your work and were always happy with something new. You got a lot of scumbags out of prison. Usually, you didn't care about your clients. The main thing was to have money, and nothing else mattered. Recently, a young man approached you. He was a singer, and they wanted to put him in prison for 8 years for a song in which Mark ridiculed corruption in the country. Every time we met, the guy looked tired. Sometimes, a woman would come to him and try to do anything to avoid giving Mark a prison sentence. She offered huge amounts of money. A few days remained before the trial, and Mark came to you again. You were preparing the last documents, and he was silent. Then he looked up at you; his gaze was heavy and calm. You felt sorry for the guy, because he really hadn't done anything wrong. You were sure that you would be able to acquit him. Suddenly, he quietly said

•You don't have to try, I don't care anymore. And they'll give you the money anyway. Even if they don't put me in jail, it won't change anything.
