Girl Get Rid Of That Jerk (Williams and Shawn) novel Chapter 267

Allison replied, "Of course, if Olivia recommends someone, I'm all in."

Watson felt a slight pang of disappointment. It seemed like she really didn’t remember him.

With a gentle smile, Watson pulled out his phone and said to Allison, "Let's swap contact info first, and then we can set up a time to chat more."

"Sure thing." Allison opened her messaging app, scanned his code, and added Watson's contact.

Olivia stirred her coffee with a grin, "Allie, don’t let Watson’s three years of practice fool you. My brother says he's already making waves in intellectual property law. He’s handled a bunch of cases for my brother's company, and he’s never lost."

Allison was a bit surprised, her eyes drifting back to Watson. "Mr. Watson, you’re quite the achiever, aren’t you?"

Typically, a lawyer with just over three years under their belt is still in the learning phase. Those big-name lawyers usually have at least seven to ten years of experience.

Watson had graduated the same year as her, and in such a short time, he’d already made a name for himself in IP law. That was impressive.

Allison was driven and loved her career as a lawyer. Her dream was to become a big name in the industry, and meeting someone as accomplished as Watson piqued her admiration.

Initially, she hadn’t been interested in him at all. But now, she couldn’t help but feel a bit of respect and admiration.

Allison smiled genuinely, "I didn’t expect Mr. Watson to be so young and talented. It’s an honor to team up with you."

Watson’s voice was smooth and gentle, "Ms. Allison, you're being modest."

Sabrina murmured from the side, "They’re just perfect for each other!"

Olivia chuckled and nudged her, whispering, "What are you going on about?"

"I'm just telling it like it is. Don’t you think they’re a great match? Both lawyers, loads in common, and they look great together. I’m already rooting for them."

Allison felt a bit awkward and turned to Watson, "My friend likes to joke around. Don’t take it to heart."

"Ah—" Watson was caught off guard by Sabrina’s leap to conclusions, and the coffee he'd just sipped decided to lodge in his throat, making him cough.

Allison, hearing "into guys," turned her head in surprise, "What? Mr. Watson, you..."

She hesitated.

"No, no," Watson quickly waved his hands, "I’m straight."

Sabrina eyed him with a playful suspicion, "Then why won’t you tell us who you liked?"

"I..."

"What’s got you all laughing?" Watson’s words were abruptly cut off by a cold male voice.
