From that stay on Landon completely changed his playboy ways. He coldly rejected all the women who flocked around him, dedicating himself solely to his studies, as if the law was his entire life.

- Crows name was finally cleared, and no one ever dared to gossip about the matter in Front of Landon again.

and at just twenty years old, Landon made a stunning debut in the legal world with this case, smoothly receiving an internship offer from the biggest law firm
the city.
wo years later, at Northwood University’s annual graduation ceremony, Landon declined the offer to speak as the outstanding graduate, choosing instead to be spectator in the audience.
