The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 30 No Heart at All

The next day, Allison got word that Ronan was now Sophia's defense attorney and wanted to meet her for an out-of-court settlement.

Just then, Lyle called. "Allison, you might need to get yourself a lawyer!"

Allison said, "Mr. Warner, Ronan seems to be a well known lawyer!"

Even though Allison didn't have much of a connection with Lyle, she appreciated the heads-up.

"Ronan's the best lawyer in the country right now. He's been at it for over a decade and hasn't lost a single case!"

Allison stayed cool. "Don't worry, I know what to do."

After hanging up, she realized she couldn't just sit around since the other side had lawyered up. So, she asked Cleo to help find her a lawyer.

Still waking up at six in the morning, Allison was surprised to hear noises from the kitchen. She thought Felicity had come early.

But when she got closer, she was even more shocked to see Alexander. "Mr. Carter, what are you doing here?"

Alexander grinned. "Surprised to see a guy in the kitchen?"

Allison nodded, genuinely surprised.

At The Bennett Villa, neither Hayden, Preston, nor Jasper ever stepped into the kitchen. Even for tea, the servants handled it.

Breakfast was simple: fried eggs, grilled bacon, and oatmeal.

Alexander said, "I made some oatmeal; give it a try!"
