Chapter 109 Can't Find the Way Home?

Alexander took a deep breath. He really wanted a cigarette, but no smoking allowed in the ward.

He couldn't shake off the irritation, so he just lay there on the hospital bed, staring at the ceiling, lost in thought.

He muttered, "James, did I mess up? Allison's only eighteen. She's got her whole life ahead of her. Even if she wasn't a Bennett, she'd still be amazing at anything she does. She's so incredible. What do I have to offer her? But she doesn't need money! I feel like the poorest guy in the world, with nothing but cash!"

Allison could attain any fame or status she desired. The things she could accomplish were far beyond what Alexander, merely a businessman, could achieve. So yeah, it was rare for Alexander to feel this low.

James tried to comfort him, "Mr. Carter, a girl like Ms. Bennett, if you don't make a move, someone else will. So I think you did the right thing. When you meet the right person, timing doesn't matter!" Even though it sounded a bit shameless, Alexander liked it. It made sense that he struck first!

Allison nodded, but she looked down, which surprised Henry.

He added, "What's wrong? You don't seem happy. Did someone hurt you?"

Allison looked at him and smiled, "If someone did, would you help me?"

"Of course! Whoever dares to mess with you, I'd take care of them!" Henry replied.

Allison smiled at Henry, who was momentarily stunned. "It wouldn't be Alexander, would it?"
