The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 54

He swaggered over to the liquor cabinet, grabbed a bottle of booze, poured half a shot, and downed it in one go.

The spicy, potent taste of alcohol lingered in his mouth.

His fist smashed hard against the wall.

He had lost control!

He had fallen for a woman who tried to drug him, tried to possess him, a woman of extreme greed and vanity...

Allison was already gone as the first light of day began to creep in the next morning.

She hadn't slept a wink.

As she was leaving Magnolia Gardens, Lucian stood at the second-floor study window, his gaze fixed on her.

Was she that eager to leave?

Those tricks lose their magic when overused.

Lucian closed the window, and she was just a maid; how could he possibly fall for her?

But his fingers slowly clenched into a fist, as if he could smell that intoxicating cherry blossom scent...

That scent, it was on that maid.

He had smelled it on Penelope too.

But they were clearly not the same person...

After the miscarriage, Allison was left weak. She had to rest at home for several days before she gradually recovered.

But she knew she couldn't fall apart; her mother still needed her.

After her check-up at the hospital, Allison went to the small garden behind the hospital.

In the past, Allison would walk Grace here almost every day.

She wondered how Grace was doing now.
