The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 79 Preparing to Go Abroad

Alexander was pretty taken aback when Allison started applying medicine to his wound. He hadn't seen that coming at all.

His shoulder had been swollen for a while, and he could barely lift his arm. But he was always the tough guy, never complaining about pain.

Now that Allison brought it up, the wound seemed to hurt even more. But he wanted to play it cool in front of her, so he said, "It's just a scratch, no need for medicine!" Allison snorted, arms crossed, giving him a look that could kill. "You sure about that?"

Alexander grinned at her. She had this fierce vibe, but her petite frame made it hard to take her seriously. "How could I say no?"

Allison rolled her eyes, took the computer from his hands, and handed it to James.

Allison asked, "Can you even stand up?"

Alexander was good at hiding it, but Allison could see he was in a lot of pain, with sweat beading on his forehead. He hadn't moved an inch, which meant moving hurt like hell. James stepped in. "Mr. Carter, let me help you..."

"No need!" Alexander slowly got up, acting like everything was fine. But when they got to the treatment room and he took off his shirt, Allison saw his shoulder and back were covered in bruises, and her eyes welled up.

James was shocked too. Alexander had been enduring all that pain without a single complaint.

"The ointment needs to be warmed up and then massaged in. It might hurt a bit, so hang in there!" Allison said, warming the ointment in her palms before gently massaging it into his bruises.

Despite her small size, Allison had some strength. The cool ointment felt good on his injuries, and after a while, it turned into a warm sensation, helping with the bruising.

An hour later, they were done. Allison washed her hands, and James brought some clothes for Alexander. "I've arranged a rest room at the hospital. Mr. Carter and Ms. Bennett can rest there for a bit. I'll let you know if there's any news about Mr. Shaw!"

Allison glanced at James. He looked exhausted. She nodded, "You should get some rest too. Hunter will be fine tonight. Go to a hotel, take a shower, and get some sleep. Bring breakfast in the morning."
