The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 161 Negotiation

Carl shot Alexander and Declan a smug look.

Declan, despite all his years in business, had never met someone so infuriating someone who could leave him speechless without even raising their voice.

Alexander glanced at Carl with a smirk, then turned to Declan. "Wait outside. I need to talk to him alone."

Declan hesitated for a moment, then realized these two knew each other. He nodded and left, with the butler, Brent Bales, following. Carl sat down, his expression mocking as he stared at Alexander. "Allison's hurt, pretty bad. She's supposed to compete soon and might need your help," Alexander said.

Carl's face changed instantly. He grabbed his phone and made a call.

"Allison's injured? Why didn't I know about this?" Carl demanded.

The call was to Cleo, who was so startled she nearly fell out of her chair. "Carl, listen, I..."

Carl sneered, "Save your excuses."

Cleo sighed, knowing she couldn't lie to Carl. "I just found out. Allison was hit by her mother and broke her shoulder. She's recovering at the Carter Manor."

"The Carter Manor?" Carl looked at Alexander and hung up.

"Did you do this on purpose?" Carl accused, realizing Alexander had deliberately informed him about Allison's condition and her location. "You're really cunning."

As for the public opinion, it didn't need James to operate; others had already started spreading the news. "Mr. Walker, the news is out. It'll trend soon.
