Chapter 48 The Serious Mr. Carter

After Alexander took off, Aiden was still scratching his head, trying to figure out where his daughter-in-law could be.

Meanwhile, just as Liliana stepped out of the Carter Manor, she grabbed Alexander. "Are you seriously bringing Allison home?" Alexander gave her a look. "Why not?"

Liliana's eyes went wide. "Alexander, how old are you? And how old is Allison? You could be her uncle!"

"Liliana!"

Alexander didn't like hearing that, even if it was true. It made him feel like he was being accused of something shady.

And honestly, that was exactly what Liliana thought. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, feeling like Alexander was taking advantage of Allison.

Alexander said seriously, "I'm not joking. Allison will be the future mistress of the Carter family!"

Alexander was now running the Carter Group. His older brother was more into academics than business.

"You've always been independent since you were a kid. I don't know how you ended up liking a young girl. Allison's had a rough time at the Bennett Family. I feel bad for her. If you're serious, you better take good care of her!" Liliana couldn't say much more; after all, love was a personal matter.

She patted Alexander on the shoulder before getting into the car and leaving with Mia.

As soon as Mia got home, she called Allison, wondering if she was back.

Allison had just finished her work and answered the video call.

Mia said happily, "Allison, where have you been? I missed you so much!"

Hearing that, Allison smiled, and the exhaustion from three days of hard work melted away. "I had some stuff to handle. I'll be home tonight!"
