"Go on, drink your coffee," Allison mock-glared at her as she strolled by.
When she re-entered the conference room with the freshly printed contracts, she noticed a Starbucks cup sitting
in front of Joshua. Looked like Watson had treated everyone.
Joshua caught her eyeing the coffee and, with a teasing grin, said, "One of the young ladies from your firm
dropped it off, saying it was Watson's treat for everyone."
He glanced at Allison, a playful smirk still on his face. "Even | got one. Watson sure knows how to spread the
love."
"Mr. Fisher, | bet you've never tried this kind of coffee before," Allison remarked offhandedly. "If it doesn't suit
your taste, just leave it for someone who'd appreciate it. No need to waste it."
Joshua chuckled but stayed quiet.
"The contract's ready. Want to give it a look and sign now?" Allison handed over a hefty stack of A4 papers to
Joshua.
"Sure thing."
Joshua took the contract and made a quick call, "You can cup now."
"On my way, Mr. Fisher."
In five minutes, a middle-aged man in a sharp suit and glasses showed up at the firm.
Joshua introduced him, "This is Mike Chen, our legal representative."
Allison nodded politely, "Hello, Mr. Chen."

Mike settled in, pulling out a company seal and pen from his briefcase, and started signing the contracts like it
was second nature.
The firm was handling several cases for Joshua, meaning two copies of each contract were needed, one for each
party. Joshua had so many cases, just signing them all could give you writer's cramp.
Allison raised an eyebrow.
Wow, Joshua even brought someone just to sign contracts.
Mike didn't even glance at the contracts before signing them with swift strokes.
Allison asked, "Mr. Chen, aren't you going to review them before signing?"
"Our Mr. Fisher has already checked them, so there shouldn't be any issues."
Mike didn't even look up, continuing like a signing machine.
"...," Allison paused, "But your Mr. Fisher hasn't reviewed them either."
Mike suddenly froze, looking up at Joshua with a stiff expression, "Mr. Fisher, this..."
"It's fine," Joshua reassured with a smile, "This is our firm, just sign away."
Allison: ".."
Who said we were family?
Mike's rigid expression eased into a sycophantic smile, "Of course, of course."

"Give them to Allison," Joshua instructed smoothly.
“Alright.”
Allison checked them over, "Everything looks good. I'll sign our copy and give you yours."
Joshua handed the Starbucks cup to Mike, grinning, “Thanks for all your hard work. Enjoy the coffee."
Mike, flattered, accepted the coffee and repeatedly thanked Joshua, "Thank you, Mr. Fisher, thank you."
