Chapter 15 First Aid

When Mia called, Alexander was deep in a business meeting. He glanced at his phone and motioned for James to take the call outside.

As soon as James answered, Mia was in tears. "Uncle, help! Allison's in bad shape!"

James, hearing this, rushed back into the room and handed the phone to Alexander.

Alexander frowned, hearing Mia's sobs. "What's going on?" he asked.

"Uncle, please help! Allison's really hurt!" Mia cried.

Alexander's face turned cold. Allison got hurt at school? He stood up abruptly. "I need to go to the hospital. Handle this," he told James, then walked out.

"Sorry, Mr. Vaughn, Mr. Carter has a family emergency. I'll be handling the negotiations from here," James said, taking over.

It was only when the ambulance arrived at the school that the teachers realized something serious had happened. Seeing Allison's condition, Magnus's legs shook. "Allison, are you okay?" Allison opened her eyes and looked at Magnus. "It's okay. Please don't tell my grandpa."

Magnus nodded, feeling troubled. What a brave girl!

In the ambulance, Mia was still panicking. Allison, despite her pain, held Mia's hand. "I'm fine. Don't worry."

Mia started crying again. She'd never been through anything like this. "Allison, give me your folks' numbers. I need to call them."

Allison tightened her grip on Mia's hand and smiled weakly. "I don't have any family."
