The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

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.

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