The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 70 Alexander Arrives Self-defense? Fight back? Allison even broke that thug's wrist! But since Allison was a student and the school gate's surveillance footage clearly showed those thugs started the trouble, she was definitely acting in self-defense.

In the end, the thugs got detained, while Allison strolled out of the police station.

When Jasper heard the news and rushed over, he jumped out of the car and ran to Allison.

"Are you okay? Did they mess with you?" Jasper asked.

Allison looked at him, a bit amused. "Jasper, who can hurt me? Don't worry, they were in the wrong, and they've already been dealt with by the law!" Seeing Allison was fine, Jasper finally relaxed. They grabbed a meal outside before heading back to Allison's place.

"I read everything you sentlast night, Allison. I can't believe he was so ruthless, even mortgaging The Bennett Villa!" Jasper hadn't slept all night, trying to wrap his head around why their father would do such a thing. Allison said, "I'm working on getting the funds back, Jasper. Until we recover the assets, no one can know about this!" Jasper nodded. If people found out about the Bennett Group's situation, it wouldn't take long for it to go under. He finally understood why Allison was making such drastic changes.

"I'm handling the branch office stuff here. Once I'm done, I'll cto Skycrest to find you!" Jasper said.

He didn't stay long and quickly went back to the company to handle work. Allison continued packing her things and gradually sent them back to Skycrest.

Three days later, Alexander showed up just as Allison was finishing her arrangements and getting ready to head back to Skycrest. Someone knocked on the door, and when she opened it, there was Alexander.

"Mr. Carter, why are you..." Before Allison could finish, Alexander pushed her inside and kissed her.

Allison froze. What was going on with Alexander? Before she could think further, Alexander had already picked her up and sat her on the sofa, deepening the kiss as if all his longing had poured into it.

After a long while, the kiss ended, and Allison was almost out of breath, panting against Alexander's chest. Alexander gently patted her back, trying hard to suppress his desire for her.

"Allison, I missed you so much!" Alexander's husky voice made Allison's whole body tingle. Embarrassed, she tried to pull away, but Alexander held her close. "Just lethold you for a bit." Allison leaned against Alexander's chest. After a while, when she didn't hear anything from him, she looked up to find that Alexander had fallen asleep on the sofa.

Seeing the dark circles under his eyes, Allison knew he must be exhausted. She knew Alexander had been super busy lately, traveling for work three days a week, and he looked worn out.

Allison quietly checked on Alexander, finding that he was severely exhausted and needed a few days of good rest. With this in mind, she went to the bedroom to get a blanket to cover him and then went out to buy groceries, also picking up sherbal medicine to make soup.

In Avalon City, Allison had long adapted to the local habits-using herbal medicine and various foods for nutrition and therapy instead of relying heavily on medication.

Alexander slept for four hours. He had pulled two all-nighters before coming to Avalon City. Although he didn't sleep long, he felt much more refreshed.

He opened his eyes while sitting up, then saw the unfamiliar surroundings, and after a moment, he remembered where he was. As he stood up from the sofa, he smelled a strange aroma. Just as he was about to walk over, he saw a petite figure coming out of the kitchen.

Alexander, not even bothering to put on his shoes, quickly hurried over to take the pot from Allison's hands. "Why didn't you wakeup? The pot is so hot, what if you got burned?" Seeing that he was awake, Allison handed the kitchen duties over to Alexander, as she only knew how to make soup.

Before eating, Allison served Alexander a bowl of soup. "This soup is good for your health. Why don't you have a bowl before your meal?" The soup had a medicinal smell, which was pretty strong. Alexander frowned, not wanting to drink it at all.

Allison knew he didn't like taking medicine, so she teased him, "Mr. Carter, this isn't medicine. Are you really that scared?" Alexander was speechless. "Allison, I'm worried that after having this bowl of soup, I won't have any appetite left for dinner!" Allison shook her head and pointed to the bowl of soup. "Mr. Carter, don't worry, there's no poison in this soup. In fact, it will boost your appetite and make you feel energetic!" Amused by Allison's tone, Alexander downed the soup in one gulp, making a face as if he were taking medicine. Allison watched him with amusement, and the atmosphere during their meal was quite harmonious.

However, the evening posed sinconvenience. Since Allison had packed and sent away many of her belongings, the house had no bedding except in Allison's room.

Allison asked, "Mr. Carter, would you consider staying at a hotel tonight?" Alexander was amused by her words as he looked at Allison and pointed to the sofa. "I can sleep there. You go ahead and rest; I'll be fine." Allison thought it would be better for Alexander to rest at a hotel, as the small sofa in the living room would be uncomfortable to sleep on. But since Alexander insisted, she didn't argue further.

After taking a shower upstairs, Allison changed clothes and cdownstairs for a drink of water. She saw Alexander, dressed in a white shirt and slacks, standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, talking on the phone. "I'll be back on time. Tell Dad not to worry. When have I ever taken company matters lightly?" If you're loving the book, nel5sis where the adventure continues. Join us for the complete experience all for free.

After hanging up the phone, Alexander turned around and saw Allison. Noticing her wet hair, bem her wett gestured for her to cover. "Letdry your hair. Sleeping with wet hair will give you a headache." Allison didn't refuse and sat cross-legged on the sofa. As he dried her hair, he suddenly asked, "There's a banquet the day after tomorrow. I'd like you to accompany me. Is that okay?" Hearing his invitation, Allison paused for a moment. "Are you sure you want to take me? I don't usually attend such events and might embarrass you." It was true; Allison had never liked attending such events. She preferred staying in her room reading rather than mingling with strangers wearing masks.

Alexander smiled, "Don't worry, it's not a complicated event. Everyone needs to bring a date, and you're the only one I have, so of course, I want to take you!" Allison thought for a moment and agreed. "Okay. But I don't have any formal dresses. What should I wear to such an event?" Since she was going, she wanted to dress appropriately, but she really didn't have any formal dresses.

"Leave that to me. You just need to show up!" Alexander was thrilled that Allison agreed and didn't want her to worry about anything else.

When Allison was heading back to Skycrest, Jasper cto see her off. To his surprise, it was Alexander who opened the door.

Seeing Alexander, Jasper paused for ack ton a moment, then stepped back to check the door number, and stood in door! front of Alexander again. "Mr. Carter, what are you doing at my sister's house?" Alexander knew Jasper was in Avalon City, and it was normal for him to have interactions with Allison, especially since he was her future brother-in-law.

Alexander said calmly, "I'm here to take Allison home. Are you here to see her off to the airport? There's no need to trouble you; I can take Allison to the airport myself!"

Alexander's words were a clear declaration of his intentions, leaving Jasper amused. "My Carter, Allison is inexperienced. Please keep your distance as the gap between you two is too large. You and Allison are not a good match." still young and MX
