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!"

After their chat, the group headed to The Old Wells Manor. In Suncrest City, the Wells family was a big deal, well-known and respected. The Old Wells Manor was beautifully kept, with the family hiring people to restore it every year. The manor was still lived in, with a bunch of old servants taking care of it.

Sabrina said, "Allison, you finally made it! Look at this place, it's amazing!"

In the garden stood an ancient peony tree that had been in the Wells family for hundreds of years. It was winter, so the peonies had already withered, but the leaves were still lush and green.

Sabrina continued, "Landon said that in spring, the peonies here are stunning, blooming in five different colors!"

Allison nodded, checking out the ancient tree closely. It was indeed lush, though the leaves were a bit yellow, probably due to a lack of potassium. "I'll mix up some fertilizer for Landon. Use it every two weeks, and the peony tree will thrive even more!"

Besides the ancient tree, the garden was filled with blooming peonies, many of which were rare varieties. It was clear that the Wells family's centuries-old heritage had resulted in such a beautiful collection of peonies.

Allison couldn't help but think it would be a shame if such skills were lost.

Sabrina was overjoyed, pulling Allison to change clothes. Allison was puzzled at first, wondering why they needed to change, until she saw Cleo dressed in traditional attire. "An Apprenticeship Ceremony, and we have to dress like this?" Cleo was equally excited, as it was her first time wearing such clothes. Sabrina chose a cute dress, and after some thought, Allison picked a dress as well. Even Jessa changed into traditional attire, and Landon's outfit matched Sabrina's perfectly.

Mia arrived late and, after some deliberation with Hunter, chose matching outfits that looked great together.

Allison took a photo and sent it to the family group chat, which immediately buzzed with excitement. Hunter's father, Vance, called to ask if he and Mia were engaged.

Alexander also changed his clothes. Since Allison wore a dress, he put on a traditional suit, and they looked great together.

As the group enjoyed themselves, a pair of eyes in the corner glared at Allison and Alexander with hatred.

Allison felt the stare and was about to look over when Alexander pulled her into his arms.

Alexander said, "Don't look at her. She'll notice. Look at me."

Allison looked up and smiled at Alexander, who smiled back and kissed her forehead.

In the corner, Sloane saw this and, filled with rage, stormed towards Allison, clutching a syringe.

With a sinister look, she approached Allison, not noticing that several people had already surrounded her.

"Allison, you bitch, die!" Sloane raised the syringe to stab Allison, but someone grabbed her wrist mid-air. The sound of bones dislocating echoed as Sloane's wrist was twisted, and the syringe fell to the ground.

Screams erupted, and suddenly, a group of people dressed as waitstaff surrounded the guests.

Landon threw Sloane to the ground. She got up, looking disheveled, and Allison noticed red spots on her broken arm. Her face changed, and she rushed to Landon, checking his hands for wounds. Finding none, she sighed in relief. "Go wash your hands thoroughly with disinfectant. Stay away from Sloane; she might have HIV. Everyone, be careful not to touch her!"

Landon's face turned pale. Sabrina started running towards him, but he quickly stopped her. "Stay where you are, Sabrina. Listen to me!"noveldrama

Landon rarely spoke to her in such a tone, making Sabrina instantly nervous.

The Lewis brothers were resting in a room when they heard the commotion outside. They tried to come out but were stopped by bodyguards. "You are our honored guests. Please stay inside for your safety. Mr. Wells has instructed us to ensure your protection. He will handle the situation outside."

Ryan frowned and looked at Nathan, who quickly made a phone call. "Come in."

Soon, the Lewis family's guards entered the courtyard. Ryan told the bodyguards, "We have our own protection. You don't need to worry. But my sister isn't here, and I need to find her."

The bodyguards didn't stop them from searching. Nathan led the guards out and soon brought Sabrina back. She ran to Ryan as soon as she saw him. "Ryan, something happened to Landon!"

Ryan's face changed, and he looked at Nathan, who explained, "A woman tried to attack Allison. Landon stopped her, but Allison discovered she has HIV. Landon is being disinfected now."

Ryan and Ralph's faces darkened, and they headed to the courtyard together. Just then, Mason appeared.

"Alexander, Declan, Landon, Hunter, long time no see!"

Seeing Mason, their faces turned grim, especially Landon's. He couldn't believe Mason would use Sloane to harm them, his own sister.

"Mason, what do you want?" Landon asked, and Mason laughed. "What do I want? In your eyes, I'm useless, discarded when no longer needed. You never imagined this day would come, did you?"

Mason waved his hand, and the disguised waitstaff pulled out weapons, aiming at Alexander and the others.

"Such a grand scene, causing trouble at The Old Wells Manor. Mason, I underestimated you!" Alexander said, and Mason laughed. "Alexander, you were born incredibly smart and into the prestigious Carter family. You were a prodigy from birth, achieving greatness in Skycrest at a young age. Do you know how much I envied and hated you?"
