Rising From Betrayal Reborn As The Family Outcast novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128

Time flew by, and before they knew it, a while had passed.

Alicia had already joined the crew for filming.

That day, after finishing her scenes, Alicia and Landon asked for leave and returned to Irisport.

As they made their way through the airport’s underground parking lot, they were almost at the spot they’d agreed to meet.

They spotted Jason, dressed in a light gray trench coat, tall and impossibly handsome, leaning casually against the car door.

‘The legend is back on his feet, and he’s got that vibe again,’ Alicia thought to herself.

Her eyes shone with amusement as she walked over. “Mr. Farrell, you look amazing today!”

Jason let out a low chuckle. “All thanks to Dr. Delaney.”

He opened the car door for her. “Get in.”

After Alicia got in, he closed the door, walked around to the other side, and slid into the seat next to her, like it was the most natural thing in the world.

The driver started the car and pulled out of the parking lot.

Alicia took off her hat and mask. “Did you tell anyone you can walk again?”

Jason replied, “Not yet. I even made a show of using the wheelchair when I went out today.

“The Campbell family is hosting a party the day after tomorrow. I’m planning to walk right in.”

Alicia grinned. “Will the Farrell family be there?”

Jason nodded. “Yeah, I’m going to give them a real surprise.”

He asked, “Are you in a rush to get back? If not, want to be my plus one?”

Alicia said, “Sure, I’ll have Landon shoot the other scenes first.”

She’d rushed back this time not just to check on Jason, now able to walk again, but also to finally meet the miracle doctor who had just appeared.

In the past few days, Jett managed to get in touch with him, and he even came to Irisport.

She asked, “Did the miracle doctor go to see Nicolas?”

Jason replied, “Yeah, he did. He said he could cure Nicolas.”

Alicia raised an eyebrow. “That simple?”

The side effects from that drug Nicolas took aren’t so easy to cure.

Unless the miracle doctor had been holding something back all along.

But she doubted the doctor would just help Nicolas out of kindness.

Jason chuckled. “The miracle doctor said since Nicolas ended up taking his prescription, it was destiny. So he made a request before agreeing to treat him.”

Alicia asked, “Let me guess, he wants Nicolas to marry Nicole?”

Jason gave her an appreciative look. “Smart. That’s exactly what he asked for.”

Alicia couldn’t help but ask, “So, did Nicolas agree?”

From what she knew about him, Nicolas never let anyone push him around.

Sure enough, Jason said, “No, he didn’t.

“Nicolas said even if he ends up with no kids, there’s no way he’d ever marry Nicole-the one who set him up.

“The miracle doctor just walked out.

“The Moore family wouldn’t budge, so now it’s at a stalemate.”

Even though Alicia wasn’t a fan of Nicolas, she had to admit, he really stood his ground on this.

If she were in his shoes, she wouldn’t let anyone strong-arm her into marrying someone who’d screwed her over, either.

Jason added, “Oh, and by the way, Caleb didn’t cast Nicole as the female lead in his new show.

“Nicole went running to Leo, bawling her eyes out, so he called Caleb in for a lecture.

“Leo even pulled out his own money to personally invest in the show, but only if Nicole gets the lead role.”

Alicia let out a soft laugh. “Looks like a lot went down while I was off filming.”

She’d been shooting desert scenes lately, working nonstop with terrible cell service, so she hadn’t had much chance to keep in touch with Jason and the others.

“Guess Leo is still totally wrapped around his precious stepdaughter’s finger,” she said.

Her former father had tried to get her to visit him in the hospital through his assistant before, but she just ignored it.

Thinking of that, she asked, “Did Nicole ask that miracle doctor to treat my ex-dad?”

Jason looked surprised. “Wow, you really saw that coming, Alicia!”

Alicia chuckled. “Looks like his insomnia finally cleared up.”

No wonder he’s always lecturing his son and bending over backwards for his stepdaughter.

“But do you really think that miracle doctor’s just helping him out of kindness?” she asked.

She had her doubts about that.

Jason said, “He doesn’t know any of that. He still trusts Nicole and her mom, so of course he let the miracle doctor treat him without a second thought.

“As for whether the doctor’s got any bad intentions, who knows.

“The Hammond family’s invited to the party the day after tomorrow too. If he shows up, you can see if anything seems

fishy.

Alicia nodded. “If something’s up, then our theory’s basically spot on.”

She shrugged. “But if he really ends up sick, I’m staying out of it.”

When they got back to their place, Jason and Alicia got out of the car and walked in together.

Before. Alicia had always been the one pushing Jason’s wheelchair. Now, walking side by side, she felt something she couldn’t quite put into words.

Alicia went over to Jason’s place and gave him another check-up. “You’re doing great. No more acupuncture for you.

Just take it easy and avoid anything too strenuous for now.”

After the accident, Jason never thought he’d actually be able to stand up again.

Now, he cherished every moment he could walk.

“Alright, I’ll be careful,” he said.

“Can I drive yet?” he asked.

If he could drive, he could pick her up himself from now on.

Alicia replied, “Walking and driving are totally fine.”

Jason’s smile grew even warmer.

He turned to Alicia. “If you’re free around noon tomorrow, come over to my place for lunch.”

Alicia grinned. “What, Mr. Farrell, are you really going to cook for me yourself?”

Jason smiled. “Yeah, I said I’d cook for you before. Just not sure if you’ll do me the honor, Alicia.”

Alicia laughed out loud. “Of course I will! I’ll come by tomorrow and see how good your cooking really is, Mr. Farrell.”

Jason grinned. “I promise I won’t let you down.”

Over the past three months, he and Alicia had spent a lot of time together and shared quite a few meals.

So he knew exactly what she liked.

They chatted a bit longer until Alicia said it was time for her to head home.

Jason stood up and walked her home.

The next day at noon, after taking care of a few things, Alicia headed over to Jason’s place.

He’d already gotten all the ingredients ready and was slicing up some meat.

His movements were so practiced, you could tell he was no stranger to cooking.

Alicia walked over to help him wash the veggies, and watched him stir-fry.

Before long, the mouthwatering aroma of food filled the kitchen.

Jason kept it simple, whipping up four homestyle dishes.

Alicia tried each one, her eyes lighting up. “Mr. Farrell, you can really cook!”

She had to admit, this guy’s skills were legit-he made even the basics taste great.

Jason’s handsome face was all smiles. “I’m glad you like it.”

Alicia paused for a moment, caught off guard by his words.

She quickly recovered. “Next time you cook, just let me know. I’ll come over and mooch off your cooking.”

Jason’s smile grew even wider. “Deal.”

After they finished eating, Jason’s assistant brought over the outfits for tomorrow’s party.

Jason had even picked out a dress especially for Alicia.

She tried it on-it fit perfectly, and the color and style were exactly her taste.

From the way he cooked to how he prepared the dress, it was clear Jason paid attention to every detail.

After spending so much time together, he really knew what she liked.

The next day, it was time for the Campbell family’s party.

Mr. Campbell was getting ready to retire and hand the company over to his eldest son, Zane Campbell.

So this party was all about introducing the new heir to the world, with invitations going out to all the top families and a few special guests.

It wasn’t just the Farrell and Hammond families-even the Delaney, Hayes, Kingsley, and Moore families were on the guest list.

Both Delaney brothers, all three Hammond brothers, and Nicolas were all there.

They were all standing around chatting with Victor.

Suddenly, someone nearby exclaimed, “Jason can actually walk now?”

Everyone whipped their heads toward the entrance in perfect sync.

Alicia, absolutely gorgeous, walked in arm-in-arm with Jason, who looked impossibly handsome and stood tall and proud.

All eyes in the room instantly locked onto the two of them.

Some people glanced at the Farrells, the Hammonds, and Nicole-who’d come with Jett-smirking with obvious

amusement.

With all these families gathered, this was a recipe for drama. Things were about to get real interesting.
