The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 34 Familiar Code

Allison woke up the next day, blinking at the hospital room ceiling, totally confused. 'Why am I in the hospital?' she wondered.

She tried to move but felt sore all over. 'Must've been a fever,' she thought.

Taking a deep breath, she looked around. She was in the VIP room. Alexander must've brought her here.

Just then, the door swung open, and Alexander rushed in. "You're awake?"

He touched her forehead, relieved to find the fever gone. He finally relaxed.

Thinking about last night, when Allison was feverish and crying, made Alexander's heart ache.

Allison smiled weakly. "Thanks, Mr. Carter, you saved me again!"

But Alexander wasn't having it. "If you stop making me worry, that'd be thanks enough!" He helped her sit up, handed her some water, and opened a thermos to serve her some porridge. "Thalia's handling the lawsuit. You just focus on getting better and studying, okay?"

Allison nodded, sipping water and eating obediently. Her compliance made Alexander's heart soften.

"I wanna go home," she said after eating.

She knew her body well. She'd been overworked, her back injury untreated, and the weight of a five-year-old incident had been dragging her down. Now that the burden was lifted, she felt relieved.

Since she felt better, so staying in the hospital seemed pointless.

Alexander didn't argue and arranged for her to be discharged.

Back home, Felicity was waiting. Seeing Allison's pale face, she felt heartbroken. "How'd you get so sick? Go lie down, I'll make you something good to eat!"
