Noah's mouth twitched slightly as he processed the professor's sudden demand.
He had been fully prepared to reject Michael's offer on the spot, ready to construct a plausible excuse about his heavy schedule and how he simply wouldn't have the spare hours to act as an assistant for a massive legal case.
However, seeing that Michael had explicitly stated he would not take no for an answer, the words of rejection died in Noah's throat.
As he thought about it further, a different perspective began to take root in his mind.
His ultimate dream had always been to become a highly successful defense lawyer.
Being able to watch a high-profile lawsuit unfold upfront, especially one led by a brilliant and renowned legal mind like Michael Vane, would serve as invaluable practical learning material.
By working directly as Michael's personal assistant on this case, he would undoubtedly build up a wealth of professional experience.
