NovelsFreeWhile they ate dinner inside, Brooklyn waited in the car, completely in the dark about what was going on.
She was curious, sure, but she kept it to herself. After all, it was her boss's personal business-definitely not her
place to ask questions.
In the elevator, Allison leaned in close to her little sister. "Lizzy, don't tell Mom or Dad about dinner with Joshua

Lizzy nodded. "Okay, sis."
"Good girl."
Back in her room, Allison checked her phone for messages.
Watson: [Hyet?]
Allison: [Just got back.]
Watson: [Get srest. Good night.]
Allison: [Night.]

Carolyn walked in wearing a light tan suit, an Hermés bag dangling from her arm, moving with so much
confidence that the whole office couldn't help but stare.

"Is she a client, or maybe a new lawyer?"
"No way, she's gotta be a client. She's got that CEO aura."
"Totally, she looks like she owns the place. Definitely not just an employee."
"That body, that face-she's amazing."
Carolyn overheard the whispers and let a small smile play at her lips.
She stopped at a young woman's desk and smiled warmly. “Hi, | didn't see
anyone at reception, so | just cin. Could you tellwhere Allison's office is?"
Joy felt a little flustered. A woman this stunning was talking to her?
"I can show you," Joy said, jumping to her feet.
"Thank you." Carolyn's smile got even brighter, and Joy just stared for a second before leading the way.
When they reached Allison's office, Joy smiled. "Here you go-this is Allison's office."
"Thanks."
"No problem, I'll get back to work."
Carolyn knocked on the door.
From inside, Allison called out, "Cin."
Carolyn stepped inside. "Allison."
Allison looked up, surprised for a moment, but quickly recovered. "Ms. Witt, please have a seat."
Carolyn took a seat on the sofa behind the coffee table. Allison got up from her desk and joined her.
She started boiling water and set about making tea, carefully rinsing two delicate porcelain cups before placing

"Sure." Allison scanned her code, and they added each other.
Carolyn sent over the documents.
"I'll leave this in your hands, Allison," she said with a small smile.
Allison took a sip of tea. “Let's talk through the basics first, Ms. Witt."
"Of course." Carolyn tried the tea and smiled. "This is really good, by the way."
