The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 250 Island Vacation Ryan hit up Allison for access to the security cameras at Serenity Manor. She shot him a link right away.

Since Sabrina and Ralph lived there, Ryan had every right to make sure they were safe.

Once Ryan was done with his phone, he said, "You got kicked out of the group because you embarrassed us. And if Mom and Dad find out about this, what do you think they'll do?" Ralph clammed up instantly. If his parents found out, they'd give him an earful. Not wanting to risk it, Ralph quickly hung up the phone.

Feeling bad for Ralph, Sabrina had Hunter whip up a special herbal dish for him. Seeing Sabrina being so thoughtful, Ralph's mood lifted a lot.

"Alexander, the holidays are coming up. Got any plans?" The family was gathered around the dinner table. Jessa was tending to Elsa but still kept an eye on Alexander.

Alexander said, "Allison wants to hit the beach. I've already booked a place." "Countin!" too!" "Alexander, I want to go too!" Alexander frowned, finding the group pretty annoying, and then met Jessa's gaze. "I want to spend salone twith Allison. It's not cool for you all to tag along." Mia pouted and pleaded with Alexander.

Mia said, "Alexander, please takewith you!" "You need to study for your SATS. Stay hand focus on your prep!" Alexander firmly declined. Mia looked like she was about to cry. Hunter quickly went over to comfort her. "I'll stay with you, Mia!" Mia huffed, and Jessa suggested, "Why don't we go somewhere closer? I know a small island nearby. It's private and warm even in winter." Hunter raised an eyebrow, catching Jessa's drift. "Let's go there then. It won't mess with Mia's studies." Alexander glanced at Jessa and reluctantly agreed, knowing she was doing this for Landon, who couldn't travel abroad easily.

Sabrina listened closely, worried Alexander might refuse.

Alexander said, "Alright, we'll go with Jessa's plan." Hearing Alexander agree, Mia and Sabrina were over the moon. Elsa, happy for them, nudged Ralph. "Ralph, you should find a girlfriend here. The girls in Skycrest are amazing!" Ralph stayed quiet, sipping his tea. The best girl had already been snagged by Alexander, and thinking about it bummed him out.

Back home, Jessa told Aiden about the plans, and he was pleased. "Enjoy your trip together. It'll be nice to have speace and quiet here!" The Carter family was always busy during the holidays, with many visitors including Alexander's business partners, company shareholders, and Aiden's old friends. Many also cto see Griffin and Jessa.

"Griffin's been called in for a meeting. The higher-ups want him to take a position in a city in the northwest after the holidays. Jessa, do you need to go there for work?" Aiden asked.

Jessa nodded. As the ambassador to Thalassia, she had to oversee the transition to her successor, which required her presence for a few months.

Aiden nodded. "Griffin's given up a lot for you over the years. The Carter family can't be too high-profile, so he's being sent to a less visible position. It's our family's fault for holding you back." Jessa shook her head. "Dad, Griffin has sacrificed a lot for me, and I know it. Once I get back, I'll retire early and be with Griffin." Aiden patted his knee, appreciating Jessa's understanding and sensibility. "Good, I support you. I've already arranged for a property in that city, so you'll have a comfortable place to stay. As for Teddy, Alexander will take care of him." Jessa nodded, feeling grateful for Aiden's kindness. Her mother-in-law, Tracy Carter, had treated her like a daughter, and Aiden's understanding moved her deeply.

"I can't wait for Allison to grow up. Once she and Alexander get married, everything will be official. Dad, it seems like our family has been luckier since Allison joined us!" Jessa said.

Aiden nodded, very fond of Allison. "Allison is our family's lucky star. Enjoy your trip; I'll handle things here!" Aiden happily went to his room. Jessa returned to find Griffin coming out of the study. Griffin asked, "How's Elsa? Alexander mentioned she's taking on students. What's that about?" Jessa laughed and explained the day's events to Griffin, who was exasperated.

Griffin scolded, "Alexander is getting out of hand, even getting into fights. It's embarrassing!" Jessa thought this made Alexander seem more human.

Jessa said, "After the holidays, I'll be in Thalassia for a couple of months. assignment Aiden toldabout your noin the northwest. I'll join you once I return. Make sure to set up the house properly." Griffin was surprised Jessa didn't oppose his distant assignment.

Griffin said, "Jessa, I couldn't refuse my mentor's offer."

Jessa hugged Griffin's waist. Despite being married for years, their love remained strong. "I know. You'ven sacrificed your career for me. If we both held high positions, it would attract unwanted attention. You've been holding yourself back because of this. Otherwise, you wouldn't be sent so far away." Jessa felt sorry for Griffin, who was touched by her understanding.

Griffin said, "As long as you're not upset. It's just a five-year term. After that, I'll retire, and we can travel the world together!" Jessa smiled and went to bed with Griffin. Meanwhile, at Serenity Manor, Alexander lay awake, holding his phone. Allison usually sent a goodnight video call, but tonight she was too busy.

"Allison, our fish has taken the bait!" Sabrina's voice cthrough the phone, and Allison smiled, looking at Benjamin. "Dr. White, they're here!" Benjamin's expression turned serious, and he instructed his students. "Get ready to help Allison find the target!" Everyone sprang into action, with Allison leading the operation.

Allison commanded, "Sabrina, you're on pursuit. Mark, Grant, you lure them out. Dr. White, handle tonight's experiment data!" The will be updated first on this website. Cback and continue reading tomorrow, everyone!
