The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 146 Risking Her Life to Save Alexander

Griffin's face turned dark as he glared at Allison, resentment clear in his eyes. If it weren't for her, Alexander wouldn't have gone to that chemical warehouse, and he wouldn't be in this mess.

"So, what do you need me to do?" he asked, his voice cold.

Allison handed him a consent form. Griffin read it, his expression shifting to shock.

"You want to use an unapproved drug on Alexander?" he asked, incredulous.

Allison shook her head. "It's not unapproved. It's been in clinical trials for three years and is about to get the green light for mass production. Right now, only Henry and I know how to use it. The drug flushes the lungs, and it's a really complicated process. The surgery will take a long time."

She had to lay out all the risks, including possible complications like pneumothorax, so Griffin knew what they were up against.

Her explanation only made Griffin angrier.

"Is this your idea of saving Alexander? You're treating him like a lab rat. I can't agree to this!" he said, shaking with anger.

Allison got it; she was even more worried than he was. But this was their only shot at saving Alexander.

Biting her lip, she said firmly, "Griffin, I can't promise the surgery will work, but I'll do everything I can to get Alexander back to health. We're running out of time."

"You... I should've never let you two be together!" Griffin exclaimed in anger.

Reluctantly, Griffin realized they had no other choice. They had to take the risk, or Alexander would die.
