"Blowing over six hundred people in such a short time really wore me out."
She raised her eyebrows at her boss. "I'm really exhausted, may I sit down?"
"Of course, please do," her boss, barely suppressing a smile, made a welcoming gesture and gallantly pulled out a chair for her. The senior attorney working with them and the female assistant who had previously satirized Brockovich both lost their composure, the assistant quivered her lips as she looked at her, unable to summon any fire because Erin had managed to secure everyone's signatures as well as the internal report from the power company about water pollution.
