Noticing how anxious I was, Yuval reached out and held my hand as he comforted me, “Don’t worry. I doubt they have the guts to do that because it would constitute assault and battery, which can result in some pretty serious legal repercussions.”

“Really? They won’t?”

 

Yuval was a lawyer and knew the legal system like the back of his hand, so I felt a little relieved after hearing what he said.

“Thank you.”

His words of reassurance worked like a charm, and I flashed him a faint smile in response.
