The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 62 Fireworks Just for Her

Most dads out there loved their kids, but Preston? Yeah, he was different.

Allison grinned at Victor. "Mr. Wilson, you're too kind. I really like Mia, and her personality is just awesome!"

Victor nodded. Allison was sharp, and it was great for Mia to have a friend like her.

When it was time to cut the cake, Mia was surrounded by the Wilson family. She pulled her parents in to cut the cake with her. Allison stood nearby, and for the first time, she felt a twinge of envy for someone else's life.

Just then, someone came up behind her and almost wrapped her in a hug. "Allison, you'll have this kind of happiness too, I promise!"

Allison looked up, tears in her eyes, making Alexander's heart ache. "You've got me now!"

With Alexander by her side, Allison wouldn't be wronged again. His words really lifted her spirits.

At that moment, a lot of guests were watching them, some even asking about Allison. When they found out she was the new chairman of the Bennett Group, they were shocked. "Mr. Carter is into the daughter of a small business owner? That's surprising."

"What's so surprising? She's only eighteen, and look how she's got Mr. Carter wrapped around her finger. This girl knows what she's doing. No one in Skycrest will mess with her now!"

"But I heard Sloane Grey has been after Mr. Carter for years. They were childhood friends. This Ms. Bennett is really something!"

"Coming from an ordinary family, she has a thick skin. She is just trying to climb the social ladder by dating wealthy men. How could she care about her self-respect?"
