The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 85 Can You Help Arrange This?

Allison shook her head and switched gears. "Kismet, forget about that. I've got something important to talk about today!"

Kismet perked up and called her eldest son, Xavier. The three of them headed to Kismet's room.

Xavier jumped right in, "Ms. Bennett, just spill it!"

"Xavier, just call me Allison."

Xavier grinned, "Alright, Allison."

Allison smiled back. "We're family, no need for formalities. I want to talk to you and Kismet about renovating the whole Serenity Manor!" Xavier's eyes nearly popped out of his head. "Renovate the entire manor? Allison, do you have any idea how much that'll cost?"

Allison nodded and pulled out a blueprint from her backpack. "I've done some planning. It'll cost around two billion dollars. Don't worry about the money; I've got it covered. But I'll need your and Kismet's help to restore it to its original state!" Two billion dollars? Kismet and Xavier were floored. They couldn't believe Allison was talking about that kind of money so casually.

Looking at the detailed blueprint, it was clear Allison had been planning this for a while.

Kismet pointed at the blueprint, "There are some changes here. These rooms were originally connected, but a wall was built later."

Allison nodded and made a note. They spent the whole afternoon discussing the changes needed.

Allison said, "I'll hire experts to restore the manor. Don't worry about the money; I've got it. I remember my grandmother sold a lot of old furniture, so I'll see if I can buy it back."

Kismet grabbed Allison's hand excitedly. "Allison, you're amazing."

Kismet insisted Allison stay for dinner. Alexander, hearing she was at Kismet's, decided to come over. On the way, he ran into Declan, and soon a whole group showed up.
