The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 69 Returning to Avalon City

Hearing Allison's words, Jasper was floored. He'd never seen this side of her before. Allison used to be practically invisible at home, but now she was the backbone of the Bennett Group.

"So, what's the plan with Dad? Are you gonna keep him on lockdown?" Jasper asked again.

Allison figured it was time for a heart-to-heart with Jasper, so she plopped down on the sofa. "Jasper, do you know anything about him moving assets around?"

She looked him straight in the eye. When he shook his head, looking genuinely clueless, Allison knew he really had no idea.

Not only was he in the dark, but Jasper also couldn't wrap his head around the idea that Preston would do something like that.

"There's gotta be some mistake, Allison. Dad wouldn't tank the Bennett Group; it's the bedrock of our family!" Jasper blurted out.

Allison shook her head. "It might be our bedrock, but not his, Jasper. From what I know, Preston moved the assets because someone set him up. Once those assets are gone, they're not ours anymore. The Bennett Group will go under, and we'll be buried in debt. Do you think Grandpa can handle that kind of blow?"

Jasper's heart skipped a beat. He looked at Allison, and when he saw her determined expression, whatever hope he had left crumbled.

Allison went on, "So, I need a favor. After I wrap up the Skycrest situation, I want to go abroad. Jasper, will you come with me?"

She looked at him with the most sincere eyes. Jasper's heart tightened, and he nodded slightly. "I'll go with you. But you don't have to go. You're still young; you shouldn't take such risks. I can handle this!" Allison shook her head. "Trust me, Jasper, you can't handle this. It's way more complicated than you think. I'll send you the info tonight. Have your friends abroad check it out first. We'll leave in about a week!" Jasper nodded, took Allison out for lunch, and then went back to work while Allison started packing upstairs.

She called Cleo while packing. "Send someone over tomorrow morning to move everything here. I've got the lab at Skycrest ready, so you can move everything there."
