The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 95 Sense of Crisis

Alexander spun around and shot Ruby a frosty glare. She thought he was finally listening to her and reached out for his hand, but the look of pure disgust on his face stopped her cold.

"Who do you think you are, talking about Gaia? Get out of my project team now!" His eyes were like daggers, and she was so scared she stumbled and fell. He stormed off to find Benjamin.

When Alexander laid out his demand, Benjamin looked worried. "Alexander, Ruby's been with me for years. If she takes the data, the loss will be huge!" "She signed a confidentiality agreement. If she leaks anything, she'll pay the price! If you don't agree, I'll pull the whole project!" Alexander snapped. Gaia had him acting like a madman, and Benjamin just couldn't get it. "Is it all because of this Gaia?"

"Benjamin, she's worth more than any amount of money!" Alexander said firmly.

Benjamin was taken aback, then suddenly something clicked, and he looked at Alexander in shock.

Meanwhile, Allison was clueless about all this. She was having a blast at the beach with Cleo. They brought back a ton of seafood and had a big feast that night. That evening, Allison texted Alexander, showing off their seafood haul, but she was in Aquilonia, which Alexander didn't mind.

Allison: [Isn't it awesome?]

She added a proud emoji, and Alexander chuckled at his phone.

Alexander: [Yeah, you're amazing!]

After a shower, he lay in bed, tempted to video call her but held back.

Alexander: [Do you miss me?]

Allison blushed at his message. After a moment's hesitation, she replied: [Yes!]

That simple reply made Alexander feel all warm inside. But thinking about Carl made him frown again. Everything here was a shock, and Carl made him uneasy.
