The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 196

She bit her lip, clutching her bag tightly with both hands.

During the entire journey, there was no conversation between them.

Her phone buzzed.

It was a call from Jason. She answered it, speaking softly, "Hello?"

"Allison, are you home yet?"

She glanced at the traffic ahead. "Not yet; it's jammed."

"Well, pack some more clothes when you get home tonight. See you tomorrow. Oh, is my brother with you? Pass the phone to him."

Allison handed her phone to the man beside her, even though there was a gap between them.

Lucian took the phone. "Hello?"

"Bro, you know Allison is my classmate, and I've been crushing on her. Make sure she gets home safely. Even if you're busy, make sure she's safe first."

Hearing Jason's words, Lucian's brow furrowed subtly.

"Hmm."

"Allison, you're really crafty." After hanging up, Lucian sneered coldly. Holding her much-used, ordinary phone, he thought of the day Allison visited the Lindbergh family in her high-end pink dress, clearly trying to snag Jason and dreaming of marrying into wealth!

Just moments ago, she was hugging and cuddling with both Dr. Dylan and Jason.

"I don't understand what you're saying, Mr. Lindbergh." Allison tried to take her phone back from Lucian, but he tightly grasped her wrist.

"Mr. Lindbergh, show some respect!"

At his words, she laughed.

Rubbing her wrist, she looked at Lucian and said, "Oh, so it's just Jason, huh? So, Mr. Lindbergh, can I seduce you?"

"Can I?" Allison's lips curled into a teasing smile. "Who are you to dictate my life? You made me break up with Dr. Dylan, threatened me with his job, and I let it slide. But why do you keep meddling in my life, my world?"

The light inside the car flickered.

His face was hidden in the shadows.

He looked at her clear and mocking eyes, remaining silent for a moment. "Allison, I always thought you weren’t as bad as my investigation suggested."

Allison's eyelashes fluttered.

He seemed to sigh. It appeared that he was somewhat disappointed.
