The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 45 Rumors Abound

Just as Mia was cheering, Alexander and Mason pushed the door open, looking a bit surprised at the scene inside. Mason asked, "Sloane? Are you playing a game?"

Sloane stood up, feeling a bit embarrassed, while Mia rushed over to Alexander. "Uncle Alexander, Allison is amazing!"

Mia exaggerated what had just happened, and Alexander raised an eyebrow, turning to Allison. "Wanna play a game with me?"

Allison was a bit taken aback; she didn't expect Alexander to be into games too.

Mason glanced at Sloane beside him and sighed inwardly when he saw her pale face.

They had known since childhood that Alexander had no romantic feelings for Sloane, not even much friendship, but Sloane was deeply infatuated.

"Mr. Carter, are you afraid of losing?" Allison raised an eyebrow, her eyes full of challenge.

Alexander's smile deepened as he pulled out the chair next to Allison and sat down. "Pick your character!"

Allison nodded with a smile, her eyes carrying a hint of playfulness, which made Alexander feel very happy. As he looked at Allison, his eyes were filled with indulgence, something Sloane had never seen before. Allison said confidently, "I choose the minion!"

"Me too!"

Allison seemed much more relaxed. When she played the game, she went all out, charging with a minion, with Alexander providing cover. The two worked together really well.

In just half an hour, they cleared all the levels. Allison didn't expect Alexander to be a gaming expert too. Her face lit up with joy, and this was the Allison that Alexander liked the most.

Alexander smiled, "If you like it, I'll play with you often!" Hearing his words, Allison nodded, then Alexander stood up and turned to Sloane. "I'll take them home. You guys enjoy the celebration!"
