The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 160 The Walker Family's Trouble

After chatting with Allison for a bit, Mia started to loosen up, eagerly spilling the latest school gossip.

"Allison, you won't believe it! While you were gone, Cameron was at school every day, walking around with Yasmin like they're a couple or something!" Mia exclaimed. Allison raised an eyebrow. "Cameron changed his strategy?"

"Is it because of the competition?" she asked.

Mia nodded, and they continued their gossip session, heads close together, until Liliana came in and shooed Mia away.

"Stop bothering Allison and go do your homework!" Liliana ordered.

The mention of homework drained Mia's energy immediately. She waved goodbye to Allison and reluctantly left to tackle her assignments.

Liliana approached with a tray of food. Allison felt embarrassed and insisted on feeding herself.

Liliana shook her head. "No way, you need to stay still. Henry said you must remain in bed. From now on, we will help you with meals and anything else you need. Just ring the bell if you need anything, got it?" Liliana's motherly tone made Allison smile.

"Don't feel embarrassed. We're family now; there's no need for formalities," Liliana added.

"Liliana..." Allison blushed.

Liliana smiled, gently feeding Allison. At first, it felt awkward, but Allison soon got used to it. After finishing her meal, Liliana stayed for a while before leaving.

Allison picked up her phone and dialed Alexander's number. It connected almost immediately.
