The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 226

Lily watched Jason fretting over Allison, and it broke her heart. "Jason, maybe Allison is already home. Maybe she's okay. She didn't tell you."

"Yeah, maybe Allison's already back, and now even Mr. Lindberg is dragged into this."

Jason whipped out his phone, calling Allison repeatedly, but he couldn't get through. He quickly dialled Lucian, but his phone was also unreachable.

Allison was rubbing her arms, cold and weak, and suddenly she slipped and fell to the ground again.

She was deep in the jungle now, with rocks and broken branches scattered all over the ground, making every step a struggle.

She propped herself up on her arms, and the pain made her cry involuntarily.

Her palms and knees were badly scraped, she had fallen countless times during her journey. Her phone battery was down to 19%. She didn't dare to use her phone light anymore. She could only grope her way forward.

Her body, arms, and neck were scratched up by the half a meter-high weeds.

Her strength was starting to drain, and the sprain on her ankle was getting worse. She leaned against a big tree for a rest.

She pulled out her phone, opened the photo album, found a photo of her and Grace from before, and tears uncontrollably rolled down her cheeks, "Mom, if I can't make it back, you still have Adrian. He will take good care of you."

"Lucian, in our next life, I hope you are born into a normal family, or maybe, my family could be a bit better off."

She wiped her tears, revisiting many memories.

In her mind, she was back to that day when she was lying under Lucian, the first time they met, and he asked her name.

She said, "My name is Penelope."

She thought of the child that suddenly appeared in her belly and had to leave, and she couldn't help crying.

"I'm sorry, baby." This was the first time she felt deep guilt.
