The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 193

Leah chilled out; she truly despised Grace, the bitch who seduced her husband and got caught red-handed. Still, she couldn't let Grace die; if she did, dealing with Allison’s revenge would be tough. “You're right; I didn't think it through.”

Leah took Penelope's hand and asked, “Aren't you going to Pearl Island with Lucian on Monday? Try to spend some quality time with him to strengthen the bond. This is a golden opportunity; you better not miss it.”

“I got it, Mom.”

Allison thought Jason's invitation was just a polite gesture; she didn't take it seriously and kept working as usual.

But on Sunday, when Allison got her schedule for the next week, she wasn't on it. She immediately went to Sarah, who told her, “Didn't you ask for time off?”

“I took time off?” Allison widened her eyes. “When did I ask for time off?”

Sarah lit a cigarette and said, “Jason did it for you.”

Allison then realized Jason's invitation to accompany him to Pearl Island wasn't a joke. She left the office and immediately called Jason.

“Jason,” Allison rubbed her temples somewhat helplessly, “Did you request time off for me?”

“Yep, pack your stuff; we'll leave tomorrow.”

“Jason, at least, you should have asked me if I agreed to it.”

“You didn't reject me last time, so I took it as a yes,” Jason said. “Think of it as a getaway; I won't do anything to you, Allison, unless you're expecting something. I'm a gentleman, you know!”

Allison pressed her lips together, somewhat amused and annoyed. “Jason, you're twisting the truth.”

“So, it's settled then; pack your essentials; see you tomorrow.”

Allison sighed, “Alright then.”

Hearing her agreement, Jason smiled on the other end of the call.

“See you tomorrow!”
