“You’ve been playing Jason, cozying up to Kamilla Your little scheme has been working pretty well. Fresh off your breakup with Dr. Dylan, you’ve already found a new shoulder to cry on.” Lucian muttered, his voice dropping low enough to only be heard by Allison. His words held warmth but only made Allison shiver, her body trembling slightly
‘Mr Lindberg, it’s just a coincidence I didn’t plan on coming to the Lindberg family, let alone ending up with Jason
“Mr. Lindberg if there’s nothing else, I’ll be heading out now.” Allison lowered her head, turning to leave, but Lucian’s arm snaked around her waist. She could feel his firm grip through her dress, making her all the more aware of his presence.
She looked up, meeting his icy gaze
“In a hurry to see Jason, are we?” NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
Allison’s heart skipped a beat, “No, I’m not.”
“I thought you’ve learned to behave.” He lifted his hand to her chin, gently tilting her face upward, “Are you really as vain and greedy as the information I gathered suggests? Breaking up with Dr. Dylan only to flirt with Jason, then look at me with those innocent eyes?”
He wouldn’t be fooled by her anymore
Even if she was the girl who once saved him, she was no longer the innocent person he once knew.
“Mr. Lindberg, I think you may have misunderstood…” Allison tried to push his hand away. His grip wasn’t strong, but she couldn’t break free. In her struggle, her cheeks flushed.
Just then, Kamilla’s voice came from outside the door, “Allison, Allison, why is the door closed?”
Kamilla was standing at the door, pushing against the kitchen door
Was Allison not inside?
The door wouldn’t budge.
Just as Kamilla was about to fetch the keys, the kitchen door opened from the inside, she was surprised to see Lucian coming out, “Lucian, what are you doing in the kitchen?”
“Mhm” Lucian simply hummed in response, passing by her.
Kamilla glanced at Lucian’s retreating back and walked into the kitchen. Allison had already cleaned up all the tools, “Allison, why did Lucian come?”
Allison’s voice was a bit hoarse, her eyes slightly withdrawn, “I don’t know. Mr. Lindberg came, saw that the cherry pie wasn’t ready and that you weren’t here, then he left.”
On the balcony
Cora watched her son with a sigh, “Jason, it’s not that I dislike Allison. But she was just Dr. Dylan’s girlfriend a few days ago. You rashly brought her home. How am i supposed to explain this to your grandfather?”
“Mom, haven’t you always wanted me to bring a girlfriend home? I like Allison. She has broken up with Dr. Dylan. I’ve had plenty of girlfriends before and broken up with them all. I’m pursuing Allison now.”
Cora said, “This isn’t a game, Jason. You need to be sure of your decision.”
“I am sure” Replied Jason, “You guys don’t understand her She’s not what you think. I’ve been pursuing her for a long time. I started when she was a freshman. She rejected
1. me.
Cora frowned. Who would reject her son? Not only was Jason handsome, but he also came from a wealthy family. He was the Lindberg family’s nephew and the Brummett family’s eldest son. And Allison was just a maid from the Flanagan family. How could she possibly reject someone like Jason?
Regardless, she wouldn’t let someone of such low status become her daughter–in–law.
