Chapter 34

Joshua sat in the gallery, watching the confident Allison in the courtroom, his chest swelling with pride. His eyes were filled with admiration and affection.

Allie was truly exceptional.

After the hearing wrapped up, Joshua handed her a bottle of sparkling water. “Here, take a sip."

“Allie, during the debate, your eyes were so bright, and you looked determined. I couldn't help but be captivated by you."

Hearing this, Allison blushed slightly and smiled. “Really? I felt like I was a different person during the trial.”

“You were fantastic,” Joshua said sincerely. “You're going to be one of the top lawyers in the industry, mark my words."

Allison beamed. "I'll hold you to that."
