The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 88 Tempted

Alexander raised an eyebrow. Finally, some news, and they were opening the lab. He stroked his chin and said, "Put me on Dr. White's team. I want in!" James looked a bit stunned. "Mr. Carter, is that okay?"

Alexander didn't bother replying, just gave him a cold stare.

When Allison got back, she called Xavier to let him know he'd be handling the Serenity Manor renovations. Then she started packing for the island. Seeing Allison pack, Felicity was surprised. "Ms. Bennett, are you leaving?"

Allison nodded. "I got invited to a competition. I'll be back in about two weeks!"

A competition? Felicity sighed in relief. She thought Allison was leaving Alexander. As long as she wasn't running away, it was fine.

During dinner, Felicity secretly called Alexander to tell him about Allison's competition.

When Alexander heard about it, he quickly came over to the apartment. Seeing the suitcase by the door, he asked casually, "Going somewhere?"

Allison nodded and showed him the invitation on her phone. "A friend invited me to join a competition. His team needs people, so I'm going to help out and make some money. You know, I need cash right now!"

She smiled as she spoke. Alexander gave her a meaningful look. "Really need money?"

Allison nodded. She wasn't lying; after all, two billion dollars was all she had earned in five years. "The prize money for the competition is twenty million dollars, and I can get half!"

Alexander smiled, sat down across from her, and Felicity quickly brought over a plate of roasted chicken and vegetables. Allison then served Alexander some mashed potatoes and gravy. They looked like an old married couple, chatting about daily life while eating.

Alexander asked, "Where are you headed?"

"Aquilonia!"

Alexander continued, "After I finish my work in a few days, I'll come to see you!"
