The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Alexander froze for a second, then slammed on the brakes and pulled the car over.

Allison, startled, looked at him. "What's going on? Did the car break down?"

Alexander took her hand. "Why would you think that, Allison? If you were pregnant, I'd be with you every step of the way. You don't need to worry about that!"

Allison smiled. "Every step of the way? Even to the bathroom?"

Alexander sighed, then pulled her close and kissed her deeply. Allison didn't resist and kissed him back, almost losing herself in the moment.

When Allison finally had to pull away to catch her breath, Alexander looked into her eyes, feeling like he was about to lose control.

But then he thought of Yasmin, heavily pregnant, and quickly pushed the thought away. Allison was still young and so thin; if she accidentally got pregnant, it could be harmful.

The next day, Jonah took Yasmin to the hospital. Henry had arranged for a specialist to examine her, but the results weren't good, so he called Allison. "Yasmin's test results are really bad. Her body is weak, and she's carrying multiples. At her age, it's dangerous!" Allison responded, "Give her the Vitality Tonic Pill, three doses. One every two months. It should keep her alive."

Henry was exasperated. "Allison, are you nuts? The Vitality Tonic Pill is your special creation, and there are only ten. Each one costs over a million dollars to make, and you're giving away three? Aren't you afraid Joe will kill you?"

Allison smiled. "The money's already been transferred to the lab's account. Don't tell them about this."

After hanging up, Alexander stood behind Allison and hugged her. "Still worried about Yasmin?"

Allison nodded. "This is all I can do. In a week, she'll go to Zephyria. Jonah will take her there. The medical facilities are good, so she should be fine."

Alexander took Allison's hand and led her outside to where two RVs were parked. Allison's eyes lit up when she saw them.

Allison said, "Wow, Mr. Carter has such nice RVs. These must be custom-made, right?"

Alexander nodded. "Victor sponsored them. Liliana used to love road trips across the country. She had about ten RVs, but none were very good, so Victor had these custom- made. These two are part of that batch."

Allison was surprised. "So Liliana still has RVs?"

Alexander nodded. "Victor had six made, each with different features."

Allison said, "Of course, Liliana would have something like that. She's always been extravagant!"

Alexander raised an eyebrow and put his arm around Allison's shoulders. "Only Liliana is extravagant?"

Allison laughed at his jealous expression. "Alright, alright. No one is more extravagant than you. Let's go, or we'll be late!"

Alexander huffed and gave her a quick kiss before leading her into the RV.The RV was decked out, fully loaded, and even had internet. Allison and Alexander each had a laptop and were working seamlessly.

"I've never been to an Apprenticeship Ceremony. What kind of gift does Ralph need? If it's not enough, I can add something," Allison said.

Alexander chuckled. "You make it sound like you're going to his wedding!"noveldrama

Allison laughed too. "As if! No one would marry Ralph. He seems polite but has a

strange temper and doesn't get close to anyone. Besides Sabrina, there's no other girl around him. And he's said he's a lifelong bachelor!"

Alexander raised an eyebrow. So Ralph brought this on himself?

Alexander now understood why Allison was so close to Ralph. She saw him as a brother, not a man.

Thinking of this, Alexander smiled. Meanwhile, Ralph had already taken an early flight

to Suncrest City. As soon as he got off the plane, he saw some familiar faces.

"Ralph, Ralph is here! Ryan, look!" Nathan Lewis was practically jumping with excitement. Ryan gave him a cold look, and he quieted down but still ran over to Ralph.

"Ralph, it's been so long! I missed you!"

Ralph smirked. "It's only been two weeks. You missed me?"

Nathan laughed and whispered, "Ralph, help!"

Ralph shook his head. Nathan was always getting into trouble, and it was always up to Ryan and him to clean up the mess.

Ralph said, "You'd better apologize to Ryan. Otherwise, helping you will only make it worse."

Nathan looked different from his tall and handsome brothers. He was more delicate, taking after their mother, Kimberly Lewis.

Nathan had smooth skin, was only 5-foot-9, and was slim. His features were so fine that Kimberly had thought she had a daughter when he was born, but he was a son.

Nathan said, "I did apologize, but Ryan won't accept it."

Ralph raised an eyebrow. "So what did you do?"

Nathan scratched his head. "It's not a big deal. I just brought a guy home for the night, and Ryan saw."

Ralph froze, then turned to him, eyes flashing with anger. "You did what? You brought a guy home for the night? Are you asking for a beating?"

Ralph slapped Nathan on the shoulder, making him yelp and run. Nathan's delicate looks often made people mistake him for gay, and men would try to hit on him. So his brothers were very protective, not wanting him to go astray. Bringing a guy home was asking for trouble.

Nathan said, "Ralph, it wasn't like that! He's just a friend. We were working late, and it was too far to go home, so I let him stay over. We slept in separate rooms. He was in the guest room!"

Ralph stopped, not hitting him again. Seeing Ryan's dark expression, he knew it wasn't that simple. "So, in the middle of the night, that guy didn't go to your room but went to Ryan's?"

Nathan looked guilty, and Ralph couldn't help but laugh. "Nathan, you really are something!"
