The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 61 Sloane's Crushing Defeat

"Alexander, I'm doing this for your own good, I swear!" Sloane was almost in tears.

Mason's face darkened, and he quickly turned to Allison. "Ms. Bennett, I'm really sorry about my sister. She was just repeating some rumors, she didn't mean any harm!" Allison glanced at Mason. This guy, the heir to the Grey family, definitely had more sense than his sister.

Without missing a beat, Allison extended her hand to Mason, who shook it instinctively. "I'm Allison, the new chairwoman of the Bennett Group!"

Allison usually didn't care to flaunt her title, but sometimes she had to play the game. "Ms. Bennett is the chairwoman of the Bennett Group?" Mason was floored.

The guests around them started whispering. "I've heard about her. She threw disobedient board members in jail right after taking over and even got her dad to step down. This girl is no joke!" "She's so young and already the chairwoman? The Carter family sure knows how to pick 'em!"

"Shh, keep it down. We don't want Mr. Carter to hear us. Better not mess with this girl."

The chatter grew louder, and Sloane got even more pissed. How could an eighteen-year-old girl win Alexander's favor?

No way Allison didn't use some shady tricks.

Sloane couldn't hold back. "Ms. Bennett, you just took over and you're already spending like crazy. If people think you embezzled funds, it won't look good. You're young and inexperienced, but if this gets investigated, it could embarrass the Wilson family too!"
