The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 86 First Meeting with Dorian

This was a real pickle. Allison mulled it over for a bit and then marked a spot overseas. "We can't stay here, it's too risky. Head to our territory. Tell Dr. White that if we need to go all in, the fee is a cool billion dollars!" Cleo's jaw dropped. "Did I hear that right? A billion dollars? We're loaded!" Allison just rolled her eyes. The steep price was justified for two reasons: first, Benjamin could definitely afford it, and second, she really needed the cash. Plus, she was giving up her latest AI technology as part of the deal, so asking for a billion wasn't too outrageous.

Alexander, after hearing her terms, nodded without a second thought. "Agree to her terms!"

James, hearing this, hesitated. "Mr. Carter, that's a billion dollars. That's no small change. Isn't this investment a bit much?"

James didn't get the nitty-gritty of Benjamin's project, but he knew that kind of money wasn't usually thrown around lightly.

Alexander shook his head. "James, some things are worth more than money! Do you even know what Dr. White is working on?"

James shook his head. Alexander pulled a file from his drawer and tossed it to James. After skimming through it, James was floored. "This... this... is incredible!"

"Still think it's too expensive?" Alexander asked.

James quickly shook his head. "This is revolutionary. Mr. Carter, can this really be done?"

Alexander grinned. He wasn't sure before, but now he had a good feeling. "Let Dr. White do his thing. The Carter Group will back him with the best gear!" The deal was set, but Allison had a new problem. How could she vanish for half a month without Alexander catching on? She turned to Cleo for advice.

Cleo, munching on chips, said, "Allison, just be straight with him! Spill the beans!"

Allison chuckled, "It's not the right time yet!"

"How about entering a competition?" Cleo suggested.
