The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 32 Hold a Court

Allison was completely unaware of all this; she thought Thalia was defending her because of Cleo's request. In fact, Cleo had sought help from Alexander.

Just as the food arrived, the door to the private room swung open, and in walked someone.

Allison looked up and saw Alexander leading the way, her eyes wide with surprise. "Alexander, you eating here too?"

Alexander gave a slight nod, glanced at Allison, and then took a seat next to Liliana. "Just passing by and thought I'd grab a bite. Didn't expect to see you and Mia here. Can I join you guys?" Liliana was thrilled and quickly ordered more dishes.

James plopped down next to Allison. "Ms. Bennett, what a coincidence!"

Allison gave a polite nod, then turned her attention to Alexander, who was chatting with Liliana. For some reason, she felt a bit uneasy.

Thalia, watching the interaction between Allison and Alexander, frowned slightly.

If she remembered right, Alexander was at least ten years older than Allison. That was quite the age gap!

But she didn't dare pry into Alexander's private life.

When the food came, Allison ate gracefully, not making a sound with her knife and fork while cutting her steak. Liliana watched her, feeling quite pleased.

In the middle of eating, a bowl of soup appeared in front of Allison.

She looked at Alexander in surprise, only to hear him say casually, "This soup's good. If you don't like greasy food, try this."

Alexander clearly knew Allison didn't like greasy food and ate very little meat. She could never finish a steak, but out of politeness, she'd always try.
