The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 12 Alexander's Arrangements

When they got back to school after dinner, Alexander couldn't help but dish out some advice, especially to his niece, who was always stirring up trouble.

He offered, "Behave yourself and stop causing trouble, or I won't bail you out next time! Just wait till your parents hear about this!"

Mia nodded, looking all innocent and well-behaved. "Don't worry, Uncle. I'll be good and stay out of trouble. Plus, Allison's got my back."

Alexander shot Allison a meaningful look before letting James drive off.

As Allison and Mia walked back to the classroom, they heard the news that Ava had been expelled.

"Sophia, weren't you and Ava tight? Why'd she get expelled? Did she really tick off some big shot like the rumors say?" Just then, the big shot they were talking about walked into the classroom. The girls started whispering, "Didn't you say Allison was gonna get expelled? Why's Ava the one getting the boot?"

"How should I know? I wasn't there. Who knows what went down." Sophia had no clue what happened, but she was sure it had something to do with Allison. She glanced at Allison and her little sidekick, Mia. Could these two have some hidden connections? But that was impossible. Didn't Mia say her family just runs a restaurant? How could that be a big deal?

Mia didn't care about the gossip. She went back to her seat and quickly piled a bunch of stuff on Allison's desk.

"Allison, these are all for you. My favorite snacks, toys, and cosmetics. They're all yours!" Mia, who had never gone without, showed her affection by sharing her favorite things.

Allison looked at the colorful pile on her desk, feeling a bit overwhelmed. "I don't need them. You keep them."

Allison wasn't into material things. She never cared much about money and only spent what she needed. So she didn't get Mia's girlish gestures at all.

"I already said they're for you. How can I take them back? Don't worry, what's mine is yours!" With that, Mia happily walked away, leaving Allison no choice but to pack the stuff into her bag.

After evening study, Allison was about to head home when Mia ran over again. "Let's go home together!"
