“If I go back on my promise, I will become a puppy,” Rachel replied with a smile. It had been their tradition to make a pinky agreement. Joey believed in it more than he believed in Rachel’s verbal promises because she had never broken a pinky agreement, not even once.

Andy had only accepted a few cases in the past two years, but all of those were relatively difficult cases. Since Rachel came back to take over the Bennet Group again, Andy had been helping her sort all the information regarding the company, causing his work to be delayed.
