The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 21 The Battle for Shares

Allison and Yasmin bumped into each other at the entrance of the Bennett Villa. Yasmin wasted no time blocking Allison's path. "Who was that guy in the car?"

Allison shot Yasmin a frosty look and shoved her aside. Yasmin almost tripped at the door, glaring daggers at Allison.

Yasmin pressed on, "Allison, you look guilty. Are you being kept by some old man?"

Yasmin's face was full of mockery, and she maliciously thought to herself that it must be true. Allison must have been noticed by a rich man and could even be a mistress. The more Yasmin thought about it, the more she believed her guess was right.

Allison snapped back, "Yasmin, my business is none of your concern! Don't pretend you care me."

Allison's attitude drove Yasmin crazy. She stormed into the house, intending to call out to Allison, but her expression changed instantly when she saw the person in the living room.

"Dad, why are you back? Didn't Mom say you were on a business trip for a week?" Yasmin fluttered over to her dad, Preston Bennett, like a little bird, nestling into his embrace and putting on a coy act.

Preston's eyes were full of affection as he looked at Yasmin, smiling warmly. "I missed you so much, so I came back early. How's your studying going? You look thinner. I'll have your mom prepare some supplements for you!" Yasmin felt very proud of Preston's love and glanced at Allison.

Yasmin said, "Don't worry, Dad. I won't disappoint you. I'll get into the best university in Skycrest!"

Preston was certainly confident in Yasmin, but his face darkened when he saw Allison. "How dare you come back?" His eyes were filled with indescribable disgust.

Allison looked at Preston, thinking how quickly his expression changed. In the past, she might have felt hurt by it, but now she didn't care much about his attitude.

Yasmin was thinking, why should Allison get 30% of the shares by pleasing Hayden, while she got nothing despite all her efforts to please him? Yasmin was
