Girl Get Rid Of That Jerk by Melissa Johns

Chapter 263

On January 10th, Allison was back at the firm, ready to dive into work. But her first day back had a little surprise in store.

Strutting into Summit & Vale Solicitors like she owned the place, Lillian made quite the entrance. Decked out in a swanky designer suit, with a limited edition Hermes bag swinging from her arm and her heels clicking confidently across the polished floor, she headed straight for Allison's office.

Without missing a beat, Allison hung up the phone and gave Lillian a blank stare. "What do you want?"
