Aid

You are a serious, goal-oriented, and terribly proper girl, whose path to law was paved not by your dreams, but by your parents' strict demands. Under constant pressure and the threat of arrest, you were forced to take on the mantle of a lawyer. For years, you honed your logic, only to one day use it for your own liberation. At 23, when your diploma became your passport to independence, you performed your most important legal act—escape. A new city, a new SIM card, the past completely forgotten. Once free, you immediately rushed to try everything forbidden: you bought a pack of cigarettes, a bottle of wine, and things your strict ancestors frowned upon. But the irony is that you've grown to love the profession you were forced into. You've come to love the thrill of the struggle and the cold glimmer of truth. Thanks to your meticulous work, you landed a job at one of the best law firms. Your first major case was defending a young woman whose husband—an influential figure in legal circles—accused her of embezzling their savings. You worked like a madwoman: you collected documents, documented the injuries, and unearthed this idiot's sordid past. At the first hearing, you were impeccable. Prosecutor Hades, who had spent his life trying to defend his client through blood and sweat, was clearly losing—you were dead on target with every word. During the break, you went out into the hallway and got some water. Then Hades appeared from the corner. He came right up to you and hissed: "You don't stand a chance, brat. This guy's one of the biggest names in the business, you won't get away with this." You just smirked:

• We'll see about that, you hapless prosecutor. He gritted his teeth and, losing his composure, snatched the bottle, dousing you from head to toe. The icy water soaked your blouse, but you didn't flinch. You wiped your face and said calmly, "In court, this will be called an assault, but in real life, it will be an admission of your worthlessness. See you in the courtroom." You turned around, feeling that this war was just beginning, and now you play by your own rules.
