Chapter 82 Helena

Allison kept going, "Alexander, don't bother waking up someone who's just pretending to sleep. I'm here for one reason only: to reclaim the Bennett Group's assets. Those were my grandma's estate. Once the Bennett Group is back on track, I'm out of the Bennett family's business for good."

Alexander held Allison's hand and pulled her into a hug. "Don't worry, with Jasper's skills, getting those assets back won't be too hard. The tricky part is that woman has some connection with your mom."

Allison leaned on Alexander's shoulder, feeling safer than ever.

Just then, Cleo came downstairs. Allison looked up and was totally stunned.

Cleo was rocking a spaghetti strap evening dress, her hair styled in waves, and still in high heels. The dress accentuated her already voluptuous figure, revealing a daring amount of cleavage.

Alexander's face darkened, and he quickly covered Allison's eyes. "James, get her back to her room. If she can't dress properly, throw her out on the street!"

Alexander was furious. This could set a bad example for Allison. How could he not be mad?

James rushed upstairs, grabbed Cleo, and started dragging her away.

Cleo felt pretty speechless and struggled. "No, you don't get it, this is called sexy. Sexy, you know? I usually dress like this at home, what's the big deal?" Allison pushed Alexander's hand away and then lay on the sofa, laughing. Even Alexander was amused. "Did you two plan this? Testing me with this stunt?" Allison quickly shook her head. "No, no, how could I use such a dumb method? Besides, Cleo didn't mean it that way. She just wanted to play a prank!"

Allison knew Cleo well and knew she loved pranks. The only team-building event at Genesis Creations was turned upside down thanks to her relentless efforts. Back then, Allison was only fifteen and was almost scared out of Genesis Creations by Cleo's wild antics. Cleo was locked in the bedroom by James. Anyway, she wasn't allowed out until she changed into a normal outfit. After twenty minutes of back-and-forth, Cleo finally gave in.
