Carolyn called out to Joshua.

"Joshua! Fancy seeing you here. Are you here for Allison too? Is it about the company lawsuit?"

Lately, Carolyn and Allison had gotten close enough to call themselves friends. Ever since Allison had helped her out that one time, Carolyn felt genuinely grateful. The more she got to know Allison, the more she admired her personality and morals-she couldn't help but wish they'd met sooner.

But even though she and Allison got along, Carolyn's feelings for Joshua hadn't changed at all.

So, when she saw Joshua at the law firm, asking for Allison, she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

Joshua stopped and looked at her. "No, not about the company. I just wanted to see her."

It was a blunt answer, no beating around the bush.

Carolyn's smile faltered for a second, but she quickly pulled herself together. "I'm here to see her too. Let's head up together."

Allison stepped out of her office and walked over to Joy's desk to go over some work.

As she was talking, she caught a glimpse of a man and a woman walking toward her-Joshua and Carolyn, side by side. Her gaze lingered for a split second.

Why were they together?

Their arrival immediately sparked whispers from the people nearby.

Honestly, the two of them did make a striking pair. You couldn't really blame the office gossip mill.
