Chapter 37

• John Smith picked up his briefcase and left home, getting into his car and driving through the bustling streets of New York until he arrived at the district attorney's building. Upon entering the building, he was immediately approached by Nancy Sheeran, his secretary, who quickly approached.
• "Prosecutor Smith, the Attorney General of the state is waiting for you in his office," Nancy informed with a professional smile.
• John raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised by the news, but he thanked Nancy for the information and headed to his office. Upon entering, he found Joe Garland seated at his desk, sporting a cowboy hat characteristic of his Texan roots. Despite holding the position of the New York State Attorney General, Joe always made a point to visibly maintain his Texas origins. Joe was an influential and powerful figure in the state's legal sphere.
