Chapter 233

The following day was New Year's Day, and Allison decided to visit the Owens family. Both Linda and Javier were home. As soon as Allison walked through the door, Linda greeted her with a warm smile, "Allie, you're back! Dinner's almost ready, so go wash up first."

Allison was still feeling the effects of last night's celebration and had only woken up around eleven. She quickly showered, got dressed, and drove over just in time for lunch.

Little Lizzy came running over in her tiny shoes, hugging Allison's leg, "Allie!"

With a big grin, Allison pulled a big box from her bag and handed it to Lizzy, "Happy New Year, Lizzy." The little girl beamed, planting a sweet kiss on Allison's cheek as she accepted the giftbox.

Javier handed Allison a gift bag, "Here's your New Year's present. Go on, open it."

Curious, Allison opened the bag to find a set of keys and a property deed.

Javier explained calmly, "Allie, this apartment is close to your office, so it'll be convenient for work. Consider this a gift from your old man. Linda picked out the car for you, it's in the garage. You can check it out after dinner."
