The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 112 Preston's Slap

James was caught off guard; he hadn't noticed when Preston showed up and quickly moved to shield Allison.

"You ungrateful brat! If I'd known you'd turn out like this, I would've strangled you at birth!" Preston yelled.

Allison's cheek immediately showed the marks of a slap. Blair's eyes flickered, but she didn't step in to stop Preston. Instead, she scolded, "Do you need a lesson to finally get it? Allison, apologize to your dad. And give back all the money you took. Your dad's a businessman; that money's for cash flow. How can you be so thoughtless?"

Allison stayed silent, staring at them. Footsteps echoed down the hallway, and Henry burst out of the ICU.

"Allison, who hit you?" Henry asked.

The nurse on duty knew Allison, so she told Henry about Allison getting beaten. Seeing Allison's swollen face, Henry was livid. "Who are you people, and why did you hit her?" Preston showed no remorse in the face of his questioning..

"I'm her dad. What's wrong with me hitting her? She's young but already so malicious. For money, she disregards everything, even her own parents. A daughter like that should've been strangled at birth!" Preston's hateful gaze pierced Allison's heart.

Henry looked at the couple in front of him, shocked to learn they were Allison's biological parents. Henry snapped, "You're talking nonsense! Allison is nothing like what you're saying! This is unbelievable. We thought she was an orphan all this time, but it turns out she actually has parents! You abandoned a teenage girl to fend for herself in Avalon City, and now you come here accusing her of being ungrateful?"

Henry and the others had genuinely believed Allison was an orphan. Otherwise, how could she have been living on her own in Avalon City since she was fourteen? Since knowing Allison, they had never seen any of her family.

It turned out Allison had parents, but it seemed having them was worse than not having any. A father like this was nothing short of a monster.

you need to provide evidence for your claims. You say Ms. Bennett had an abortion at thirteen. Don't you feel ashamed saying that? And Mrs. Bennett, don't you really know if your daughter could even get pregnant at thirteen? It's absurd that such accusations come from both of you!" James couldn't stand it either.
