Chapter 267
Allison replied, "Of course, if Olivia recommends someone, I'm all in."
Watson felt a slight pang of disappointment. It seemed like she really didn't remember him.
With a gentle smile, Watson pulled out his phone and said to Allison, "Let's swap contact info first, and then we
can set up a tto chat more."
"Sure thing." Allison opened her messaging app, scanned his code, and added Watson's contact.
Olivia stirred her coffee with a grin, "Allie, don't let Watson's three years of practice fool you. My brother says
he's already making waves in intellectual property law. He's handled a bunch of cases for my brother's company,
and he's never lost."
Allison was a bit surprised, her eyes drifting back to Watson. "Mr. Watson, you're quite the achiever, aren't you?"
Typically, a lawyer with just over three years under their belt is still in the learning phase. Those big-name
lawyers usually have at least seven to ten years of experience.
Watson had graduated the syear as her, and in such a short time, he'd already made a nfor himself in

Allison was driven and loved her career as a lawyer. Her dream was to beca big nin the industry, and
meeting someone as accomplished as Watson piqued her admiration.
Initially, she hadn't been interested in him at all. But now, she couldn't help but feel a bit of respect and
admiration.
Allison smiled genuinely, "I didn't expect Mr. Watson to be so young and talented. It's an honor to team up with
you."
Watson's voice was smooth and gentle, "Ms. Allison, you're being modest."
Sabrina murmured from the side, "They're just perfect for each other!"
Olivia chuckled and nudged her, whispering, "What are you going on about?" "I'm just telling it like it is. Don't
you think they're a great match? Both lawyers, loads in common, and they look great together. I'm already
rooting for them."
Allison felt a bit awkward and turned to Watson, "My friend likes to joke around. Don't take it to heart."
Watson smiled warmly, the picture of a true gentleman, "I don't mind at all."
The group kept chatting a bit longer. Sabrina was the one eager to keep the conversation flowing with Watson,
diving from college days to life post-graduation, enjoying every minute.
Eventually, Sabrina, with mock seriousness, asked Watson, "By the way, why
didn't you go for it when | confessed back in college?"
Watson instinctively glanced at
Allison, who was deep in
conversation with Olivia about the latest fashion shows, seemingly
avious to his chat with Sabrina.
Sabrina, being rather carefree, didn't catch Watson's look towards Allison.
Watson quickly refocused, smiling politely but with a hint of distance, "I was into someone else at the time."
Sabrina was taken aback, "Really? Who was it?"

Watson lowered his gaze, smiling gently, but didn't answer.
Sabrina, noticing his silence, suddenly had a lightbulb moment, covering her
mouth in shock, "Wait, you're not...into guys, are you?"

Allison, hearing "into guys," turned her head in surprise, "What? Mr. Watson, you..."
She hesitated.
"No, no," Watson quickly waved his hands, "I'm straight."
Sabrina eyed him with a playful suspicion, "Then why won't you tell us who you liked?"
"What's got you all laughing?" Watson's words were abruptly cut off by a cold male voice.
