Elsie's POV
I felt safe as I hugged him, he was my haven and I could stay in his embrace forever. It was the best feeling to have right now, the way I was feeling so uncertain, he just made it all disappear.
My heart melted when he didn't suggest that I should have accepted their bribe if he did, I would have been disappointed in him, it would have scattered all the respect I had for him.
I mentally cursed myself for getting too giddy and interrupting him, now he was going to think I thought of him as one of those attorneys who had no sense of justice.
He just kept surprising me, maybe I didn't know him as much as I thought I did, perhaps what I knew of him was merely a fraction of the actual him.
Who was Albie? Not the one he let me know but the true him, the him that he was when he was alone. What was he capable and wasn't capable of?
