Chapter 89 Chapter 89

An hour later, Allison strolled into Nicole's office, looking as composed as ever. She laid the contract on Nicole's

desk with a confident smile. “Nicole, I've wrapped up everything you asked for. We've secured a five- year legal

consultancy deal, and the $150,000 is already in the account. Plus, I've snagged three agreements on debt

disputes and one on patent infringement. All are general representation, with legal fees paid upfront, bringing

the total to a neat $800,000, including the consultancy fee. You can check with finance, and I've got the receipts

here too."

As she spoke, Allison pulled out her phone, flipping through her photo gallery to show Nicole the payment

screenshots. "I've covered the firm's losses."

Nicole was left speechless, her eyes wide as she flipped through the contract, double-checking the signatures

and stamps. "Owens International... Javier is your...?"”

Allison beamed, "Yep, that's my dad."

With a thud, the contract slipped from Nicole's hands, hitting the floor. She gaped, “You're the heiress of the

Owens family?"

After all the chaos she'd endured, Allison decided it was tto drop the low profile. “That's right.”

Before Nicole could fully digest the shock, her phone buzzed with another call.

“Attorney Nicole, who is this Allison from your firm? How does she know Mr. Joshua Fisher? Mr. Adams got

roughed up by Mr. Fisher's bodyguards last night, and now audit and tax folks are all over us. | heard it's all Mr.

Fisher's doing."

Joshua?

Nicole's face went pale, a cold sweat breaking out on her forehead. When she ended the call, her heart pounded

in her chest. "You... you know the CEO of Fisher Corporation?"

Allison crossed her arms, her gaze icy. "Yep, he's my fiancé and the one behind those Cullinan rumors."

Nicole's face was a picture of panic, stammering, “I'm....... sorry, | didn't realize you were Mr. Fisher's fiancée..."

It hit Nicole then. Lillian had set her up. She couldn't afford to cross the Fisher family, so when Lillian, their

adopted daughter, told her to target Allison, she had complied. But Lillian never mentioned Allison was the

Owens family heiress and Joshua's fiancée.

Now, Joshua stepped in after Allison got harassed, and what did that mean for her?

As soon as Allison left, Nicole frantically dialed Lillian. “Ms. Lillian, is it true that Allison is Joshua's fiancée?"

Lillian, clearly irritated, snapped back, “Can you givesomething useful? I'm not here for chitchat."

When she realized Lillian didn't deny it, Nicole's panic rose. "You toldto go after her, but you didn't say she

was Joshua's fiancée. I'm screwed. I've inadvertently crossed Joshua. You've got to help me!"

Lillian laughed dismissively. “I told you to deal with her exactly because she is Joshua's fiancée. Help you? I've

got no tfor that."

"Ms. Lillian, I only set Allison up with those two sleazy old guys because you toldto. If you don't help, I'll have

to spill the beans! You don't want Mr. Fisher knowing what you've been up to, do you?”

Lillian hated being threatened. Her voice was steely, “You're threatening me?”

"I'm just laying out the facts, Ms. Lillian, Joshua's already dealt with those two old guys, and I'm next in line. If

things go south for me, it won't do you any favors."

"It's not that big a deal. Just find a reason to resign. | can set you up with another firm. If the Fisher family comes

after you, just insist you didn't know those guys were creeps. If things get dicey, I'll cover you. But if you leak

even a word, you're on your own!
