< Chapter 484 Chapter 484 âI know the most esteemed and professional psychologist in the country,â Bryce said. âPerhaps I can help.â
âNot for now.â Mariela shook her head. âThereâs already a psychologist providing inâhome treatment. Letâs see how it goes for a while. If it doesnât work, Iâll contact you. Thank you, Mr. Vance.â
Bryceâs eyes softened. âNo need to be so formal with me.â
Menu âAfter all, Iâm one of the partners, essentially the law firmâs boss.â Bryce smiled, joking.âIf your state affects your work and we lose the case, failing to recover the money, itâs me who suffers.â
Mariela knew he was joking and smiled.âDonât worry, Mr. Vance. I wonât let you suffer. Worries aside, my professional skills are unquestionable.â
Mariela picked up a court verdict and waved it at Bryce. âSee, just received another favorable verdict. The court supported all our claims, and the 24 thousand dollars just came in.â
Bryceâs eyes curved into a smile.âAs expected of Ms. Logan.â
Marielaâs mood lightened a bit, and she joked, âDonât worry, working with me wonât leave you starving.â
Bryceâs eyes held a smile, his tone gentle.âAlright.â
Soon, it was time to leave work.
The law firmâs staff left one after another.
Mariela finished organizing the case materials, turned off the lights, closed the office door, and walked out of the law firm.
âMs. Logan,â Bryce called out.
Mariela turned to look.âWhat is it?â
Bryce walked over, his attractive long eyes behind goldârimmed glasses smiling. âWerenât you going to discuss the BioLumina Group case with me? A new restaurant opened nearby. My friends say itâs quite good. How about we talk over dinner?â
Mariela paused.âSure.â
Although it was after work, Mariela didnât mind discussing work with Bryce during offâhours.
After all, she wasnât working for someone else; this was her law firm, and the BioLumina case was one she was handling herself.
It was rare for Bryce to be willing to sacrifice his rest time to discuss the case with her, and she was very grateful.
Mariela smiled. âLet me treat you this time, Mr. Vance, as thanks for helping me analyze the case.â
âSure.â Bryce didnât stand on ceremony and readily agreed.
Mariela pressed the elevator button, and Bryce stood quietly beside her, waiting for the elevator.
