FakeNovelChapter 355 Allison sank into the couch with a relaxed sigh. "Watson, grab yourself scoffee and make yourself at home." She turned to the housekeeper, Paola, "Paola, could you please take sfruit and snacks up to Lizzy and Julia?" "Sure thing." Watson took the chance to dive into work talk. "Allison, did they set a date for the Helix Sciences case?" "Yes, it's scheduled for the fifteenth of next month." "How's the prep coming along?" Allison replied, "Almost there. A few minor kinks need ironing out, but since you're here today, we can go over them." "Sounds good," Watson grinned. "Happy to help." Once Allison got going on work, she was unstoppable, and Watson had hit the bullseye with his topic choice. The afternoon flew by as they got engrossed in their conversation. As the sun dipped lower, Paola busied herself with dinner preparations.
Javier and Linda were out at sfancy evening event, so it was just dinner for Watson and Julia.
Lizzy and Julia were thick as thieves. Lizzy tugged Julia downstairs, "Hey, why don't you stay for dinner? We can sit together." Julia nodded politely, "Letcheck with my mom first. She's waiting forto have dinner at home." Watson jumped in, "Your mom just rang. She said it's fine for you to stay for dinner and head hafterward." "Really?" Julia's eyes sparkled like little stars. "In that case, I'd love to stay and have dinner with Lizzy." Lizzy clapped her hands in delight, "Yay!" At dinner, the two young friends sat side by side, while Watson was across from them, next to Allison. "Sorry for intruding, Allison," Watson said with a grin. "I got so wrapped up in our case chat that I lost track of tand now I'm freeloading dinner." Though he said it apologetically, inside, he was quite pleased. This was exactly what he'd hoped for.

Watson shared a knowing glance with his younger cousin.
Julia beamed at Allison and asked sweetly, "Allison, can Lizzy and I take a picture together?" "Of course you can." Julia turned to Watson. "Brother, can you snap a photo for us?" "Absolutely." Watson pulled out his phone and took a picture of the two girls.
"This meal looks fantastic. I should get a picture of it too," Watson said, taking shot of the dinner spread. In the photo, Allison's profile was "accidentally" included.
Pleased with himself, Watson tucked his phone away with a satisfied smile.
After dinner, Watson drove Julia home.
On the way, he praised her, "Did you have fun today, Julia?" "Yes, I really like Lizzy."
"You did great today. The doll I promised will be delivered to your house tomorrow." He was referring to their little agreement about the photo.
