The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 41 It's Often Your Family That Hurts You

The company's future was on the line, and Hayden went quiet for a moment. Then he looked at Allison, grabbed her hand, and said firmly, "Shares are important, but I trust my judgment. Allison can handle the Bennett family's responsibilities. She's way better than any of you! So, I'm sticking to this decision. Allison, can you do it?"

Allison smiled at him, "Yeah, Grandpa, I'll do as you say!"

Hayden's face lit up with joy when he heard her agree. He turned to the lawyer.

The lawyer nodded and handed over the share transfer documents for Hayden and Allison to sign. "Mr. Hayden Bennett, sign here! And Ms. Allison Bennett, sign and put your fingerprint here!"

In no time, the documents were signed, and the lawyer left Bennett Villa.

Preston was fuming, and Blair finally spoke up, looking at Allison. "Allison, we know Hayden loves you. We don't mind him giving you shares, but you're still young and in school. You don't get the company's affairs. Why not let your dad and Jasper manage the shares? Your dad will give you an allowance every month. We're family, and your dad loves you too. He wouldn't harm you!"

Family? They loved her?

Allison just sneered, giving Blair a cold look that made her uneasy. "Mrs. Bennett, do you think I'm stupid? Sure, I might be inexperienced with company affairs right now, but that's temporary. I don't think Mr. Bennett can run the company. If he gets these shares, it would be a disaster for the Bennett Group!"

"Allison, you ungrateful brat, I'm your father. How could I harm you?" Preston was livid, but Allison stayed calm. Preston's biggest flaw was his emotional instability. An unstable decision-maker meant the company had no future.

Allison said calmly, "Who knows? It's often the ones we call family who hurt us the most, isn't it, Mrs. Bennett?"

Blair trembled slightly and couldn't say a word. Only she knew the evidence Allison had presented in court. She didn't dare tell Preston or Hayden, fearing she'd be kicked out of the Bennett family. Despite knowing Allison's grievances from five years ago, Blair still couldn't bring herself to like her.

Now that Allison had taken Hayden's shares, Blair's slight guilt towards Allison was almost gone.
