“I know the most esteemed and professional psychologist in the country,” Bryce said. “Perhaps I can help.”
“Not for now.” Mariela shook her head. “There’s already a psychologist providing in–home treatment. Let’s see how it goes for a while. If it doesn’t work, I’ll contact you. Thank you, Mr. Vance.”
Bryce’s eyes softened. “No need to be so formal with me.”

“After all, I’m one of the partners, essentially the law firm’s boss.” Bryce smiled, joking.“If your state affects your work and we lose the case, failing to recover the money, it’s me who suffers.”
Mariela knew he was joking and smiled.“Don’t worry, Mr. Vance. I won’t let you suffer. Worries aside, my professional skills are unquestionable.”
Mariela picked up a court verdict and waved it at Bryce. “See, just received another favorable verdict. The court supported all our claims, and the 24 thousand dollars just came in.”
Bryce’s eyes curved into a smile.“As expected of Ms. Logan.”
Mariela’s mood lightened a bit, and she joked, “Don’t worry, working with me won’t leave you starving.”
Bryce’s eyes held a smile, his tone gentle.“Alright.”
Soon, it was time to leave work.
The law firm’s 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.
“Ms. Logan,” Bryce called out.
Mariela turned to look.“What is it?”
Bryce walked over, his attractive long eyes behind gold–rimmed glasses smiling. “Weren’t you going to discuss the BioLumina Group case with me? A new restaurant opened nearby. My friends say it’s quite good. How about we talk over dinner?”
Mariela paused.“Sure.”
Although it was after work, Mariela didn’t mind discussing work with Bryce during off–hours.
After all, she wasn’t 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. “Let me treat you this time, Mr. Vance, as thanks for helping me analyze the case.”
“Sure.” Bryce didn’t stand on ceremony and readily agreed.
Mariela pressed the elevator button, and Bryce stood quietly beside her, waiting for the elevator.
