The air-conditioning in the reception
area of MAKINDA, BURNES &Co was almost freezing, yet Anna broke into sweats
as she sat nervously waiting to be called upon by the lady at the reception.
She was scheduled to meet with John Makinda, Senior Partner at the law firm and
a veteran attorney whose Elsie’s parents had referred her to. She was sure that
with his pedigree, Makinda would be the right person to make Jusky pay for the
wrong he had done her.
‘‘Madam, the boss will see you
now’’ the young attractive attendant called out to her. “You may take the
elevator to the 4th floor; the first office at the right is the one. He is
expecting you”.
Anna muttered a thank you and
hurried to catch the elevator.
‘‘Good afternoon Miss, may I call
you Anna?” Asked Makinda as he rose to his feet to welcome her
‘’Yes please and thank you for agreeing
to see me sir’’ Anna said
‘‘I will do nothing to offend my
good friends who spoke to me about your case’’ Makinda replied with a smile.
‘Please sit down and tell me all about it’
