Chapter 36 Going to the Resort

When Allison hopped into the car, she accidentally spotted Yasmin. The moment she saw the girls hanging out with Yasmin, her eyes turned icy cold.

Five years ago, those same girls had publicly exposed some so-called evidence, and it just so happened to be Allison's thirteenth birthday. It was the first time her parents had ever thrown her a birthday party. Allison had thought her parents were finally acknowledging her, but she didn't expect to be knocked down so quickly.

Noticing Allison's shift in mood, Alexander glanced over. "What's up? You feeling okay?"

Allison forced a smile, but it looked more like she was about to cry. "Nah, just a bit tired."

"Uncle Alexander, I'm beat," Mia said as she flopped into the front passenger seat. Alexander glanced at her, feeling a bit helpless.

"Let's go," Alexander said, and James started the car, leaving the amusement park behind. Alexander looked out the window and saw Yasmin, wondering if Allison's mood had anything to do with her. Sitting in the car, Alexander sent a quick text and then turned to see Allison already asleep against the window.

Remembering she had a fever a few days ago, Alexander felt a pang of concern. He took off his jacket and draped it over her, catching Mia's surprised look in the rearview mirror.

When Alexander looked over, Mia quickly looked away and shrank back into her seat.

James, driving, found it amusing but kept his laughter to himself.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the resort, and Allison woke up. She noticed the jacket covering her and looked a bit surprised.

"You just got over a fever," Alexander explained. "Didn't want you to get sick again."

His explanation was solid, so Allison didn't think much of it and handed the jacket back. "Thanks, Mr. Carter."
