The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 259 Unexpected Situation

Declan was super impressed with Allison's efficiency and gave her a big thumbs up. "Allison, you're amazing. I'll make sure Miles stays clueless, and I won't spill the beans about Yasmin either!"

Allison nodded, happy with the plan. "Thanks, Declan. I'll tell Henry to keep supplying Allegra with HeartGuard at the same price."

Declan nodded back, "You got it!"
