I wouldn't have faced the shame I faced." He sighs. "You shouldn't be angry about this, I had a reason to ask you to go back to them."

"What's that Derek?" Aurelius asks. He permitted either of them to call him by his name, those are his only two staff who can call him by his name, the rest wouldn't dare try such. It would be suspension or firing for them. Yeah, they address him as Derek but only in private. They don't let anyone know because some people would purposely try to emulate them.

"This is just the introduction, so you would be paying three hundred dollars. We will talk about the fee for the main services I would be delivering. I'm sorry to remind you of this," she smiles. "You're a VIP client, so you would be paying a bit higher." She notified Derek. Her choice of fees, most of the time is by merely looking at your worth and what you want, to consider if you can afford or not. Partiality wouldn't be the word fitting her because she has a fixed rate depending on your case and then the swift in fluctuation amount is a strategy for either the poor or the wealthy, as average people aren't included. She reduces the price to a low amount for the less privileged so they would be able to get justice. For the wealthy, billionaires and millionaires class, of which Derek is among, she increases it to a high amount which would be comfortable for the clients.They have the money to pay and are glad, it's selling at such a price. Most wealthy persons take a high price tag
