Chapter 70 Alexander Arrives

Self-defense? Fight back? Allison even broke that thug's wrist!

But since Allison was a student and the school gate's surveillance footage clearly showed those thugs started the trouble, she was definitely acting in self-defense.

In the end, the thugs got detained, while Allison strolled out of the police station.

When Jasper heard the news and rushed over, he jumped out of the car and ran to Allison.

"Are you okay? Did they mess with you?" Jasper asked.

Allison looked at him, a bit amused. "Jasper, who can hurt me? Don't worry, they were in the wrong, and they've already been dealt with by the law!"

Seeing Allison was fine, Jasper finally relaxed. They grabbed a meal outside before heading back to Allison's place.

"I read everything you sent me last night, Allison. I can't believe he was so ruthless, even mortgaging The Bennett Villa!" Jasper hadn't slept all night, trying to wrap his head around why their father would do such a thing. Allison said, "I'm working on getting the funds back, Jasper. Until we recover the assets, no one can know about this!"

Jasper nodded. If people found out about the Bennett Group's situation, it wouldn't take long for it to go under. He finally understood why Allison was making such drastic changes.

"I'm handling the branch office stuff here. Once I'm done, I'll come to Skycrest to find you!" Jasper said.

He didn't stay long and quickly went back to the company to handle work. Allison continued packing her things and gradually sent them back to Skycrest.

Three days later, Alexander showed up just as Allison was finishing her arrangements and getting ready to head back to Skycrest. Someone knocked on the door, and when she opened it, there was Alexander.

"Mr. Carter, why are you..." Before Allison could finish, Alexander pushed her inside and kissed her.
