The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 11 An Offer Too Good to Refuse

Leaving the office, Mia kept a close eye on Alexander. "Uncle, you're not gonna tell my parents about today, right? Mom will freak out if she finds out!" Alexander gave her a slight nod. "I won't, but..." Before he could finish, Mia excitedly pulled Allison over to introduce her.

"Uncle, this is my new friend, Allison! She's awesome. If it weren't for her, Ava would've totally bullied me today!"

Allison, not one for socializing, was about to decline.

But Mia, being super outgoing, didn't give her a chance. "It's lunchtime, Uncle. How about you treat us to a meal?" With that kind of tone, Alexander couldn't say no. "Get in the car!" Mia was thrilled.

Allison, on the other hand, felt a bit awkward. "Mia, I've got something to do later, so I'll pass. You guys go ahead."

Mia's face fell instantly. "Allison, you're my hero today. If it weren't for you, I'd be in big trouble! I want to treat you to lunch. You can't say no, or I'll cry!"

Faced with Mia's pout, Allison, who wasn't afraid of mean people, found herself struggling to handle someone as persistent as Mia. She sighed inwardly.

Mia pressed on, "Allison, my uncle's loaded. If we go eat with him, it'll be at the best restaurant in Skycrest. You're in for a treat! Don't worry about my uncle; he might seem cold, but he's really nice!" Alexander felt like tossing Mia into the ocean. When he glanced at Allison, he noticed her faint smile, probably amused by Mia.

With that, Mia successfully dragged Allison to the car. James was genuinely impressed by Mia.

Having dealt with Allison a few times, he knew how tough she was. He didn't expect this little girl to win her over.

"Uncle, I want to go to Azure Bistro. Allison, you know, they have the best seafood rice!" Mia was quite excited.

"Let me make a call first!" Alexander uttered. Azure Bistro was a high-end spot in Skycrest, not just anyone could get in.
