The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 207 The Ember Family's Schemes

Alexander looked down, surprised by the pile of gifts from the elders. Kismet had already given Allison a present for the engagement, and Elsa had handed over her bracelet, which was super valuable.

"Since it's from the elders, you should keep it," he said softly.

Honestly, these rich families cared more about skills and connections than money. Alexander figured they were impressed by Allison's medical skills, being Joe's student- a privilege money couldn't buy.

By the end of the engagement party, Allison was completely wiped out. The day's drama with Blair had drained her both physically and emotionally. Feeling heartbroken, Alexander handed over the hotel stuff to Jessa and took Allison home.

When Jessa and the others got back, their first concern was Allison.

"How is she? She's been through so much these past few days," Jessa asked Alexander, worried.

Alexander had only managed to get two hours of sleep next to Allison before his phone woke him up. Not wanting to disturb her, he went downstairs and bumped into Jessa.

"She's still sleeping. She should be fine after some rest. Don't worry," he reassured her. Despite his words, Alexander grabbed a thermometer and headed back upstairs.

Jessa, seeing this, got more anxious. "You don't know how to take care of her properly. Go get Felicity to make some chicken soup. I'll check on Allison."

Later, Jessa found Allison with a fever of 100.4°F and quickly got some medicine ready. She gently woke Allison to give her the medicine, her face full of concern.

"Jessa..." Allison murmured, still half-asleep.

"Drink some water, sweetheart. You'll feel better soon," Jessa said gently.
