The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing
Chapter 81 Pulling the Rug Out from Under

Jasper never thought Alexander would figure out his game. He'd been so careful all these years that even Hayden hadn't caught on, so why would Alexander?

Seeing Jasper's disbelief, Alexander calmly said, "Need a reminder? Helena Ember, your partner!"

Jasper's eyes widened in shock, and his look at Alexander turned fierce in an instant. "Mr. Carter, you must be kidding. I don't know any Helena."

Alexander leaned in close, his voice cold, "Jasper, I know you and Helena are working together, and I also know she's your lover." That one sentence hit Jasper like a bomb, making his mind explode. His hands trembled on his knees. Alexander, on the other hand, looked at Jasper like he was watching a clown.

"How do you know that?" Jasper's eyes burned with anger as he stared at Alexander.

Alexander kept his cool, "Nothing stays hidden forever, Jasper. I know you got close to Helena to get back at Preston. I don't care about your beef with him, but stay away from Allison. She's off-limits."

Jasper's fists clenched, his usual mask slipping to reveal a dark expression.

Alexander pressed on, "What happened five years ago that made you so desperate to kick Allison out of the Bennett family? Did she find out some dirty secret of yours?"

Jasper laughed, a smug grin on his face, and looked at Alexander with mockery. "What if I told you I was the scumbag who got a thirteen-year-old girl pregnant? What would you think?"

Alexander's face changed instantly. He lunged across the desk, grabbing Jasper by the collar. "Jasper, you bastard!"

Jasper laughed maniacally, almost crazed, "Allison was just unlucky to find out! She was the first to see my true colors, so she had to go!"

Alexander sneered, "Why do you think Hayden gave the Bennett Group to Allison and not you? You had a bright future, Jasper, but you blew it! I won't mess with your thing with Helena or your grudge with the Bennetts, but if you touch Allison, I'll make you pay!"

Jasper's back was drenched in cold sweat as he stepped out of the study. He glanced upstairs briefly before quickly leaving the estate.

Alexander stood by the study window, coldly watching Jasper walk out the gate and get picked up by a car.

James walked over. "Mr. Carter, that car's been waiting a while."

Alexander nodded. "I don't care about his issues with Preston, but going after Allison is a no-go. Keep an eye on him and send some photos to Preston."

James nodded and quickly left, while Allison was almost done with her task.

"Allison, crashing their server was savage, hahaha!" Cleo cheered, waving her arms excitedly. Allison stayed calm, her hands still busy.

"Four teams have already bailed, but three are still inactive. Allison, you hacked into the official intranet, are you nuts?" Cleo was startled, but Allison moved through the intranet like it was her own playground, leaving a few files before quickly logging out.

Within an hour, several government intranets were hacked, each receiving files about a mysterious group called the Crimson Order.

On the streets of Phoenix City, a bunch of burly guys got ambushed and surrounded by the cops before they even knew what hit them.

A young boy suddenly got suspicious of the cameras around him. He had a hunch but couldn't believe it. Grabbing the nearest person, he vanished into the crowd. Allison, still focused on her task, missed this scene. Once in a safe spot, the boy made a call.

A voice on the other end said, "Sir, just now, relevant departments in four countries got a mysterious email detailing our organization's past crimes and the locations of all our members. Now, everyone's being hunted!"

The boy was silent for a while, then suddenly smiled, "Interesting. I thought Cleo was the big shot in Genesis Creations, but it turns out Gaia is the one! If she doesn't want us to find her, let her be. Keep working on Genesis Creations; I need Gaia on our side!"

The crisis was resolved so quickly that even Cleo was stunned. "Allison, you are the queen of this world, truly a queen!"

Allison just gave a faint smile, logged off the computer, packed it up, and dragged Cleo to change clothes. Their current outfits were too flashy, and Allison couldn't stand it, so she made Cleo change into something more normal. When Allison came downstairs, Alexander was already sitting on the couch. Seeing her, he patted the seat next to him. "Come here, I have something good to show you!"

Allison raised an eyebrow, walked over, and sat down. Alexander handed her a photo of a boy around ten years old.

Seeing the face, Allison turned to Alexander. "Preston's illegitimate child?"

Alexander nodded with a smile. "All of Preston's assets are in this kid's mother's name, supposedly as compensation. But really, it's a way to split the Bennett Group's assets! Even if your grandfather finds out, he can use this kid as a shield. Ultimately, Preston still controls all the wealth!"

Allison looked at the boy's face, which indeed resembled Preston's, even though he was only ten years old.

Allison sneered and placed the photo on the table. "I've seen his photo before, but he was younger, like five or six! I saw it in Grandpa's study, and when Preston caught me, he slapped me and said I shouldn't touch Grandpa's things! So, this must be one of the reasons for kicking me out of the Bennett family."

Alexander's eyes turned cold. He hadn't expected Allison to have gone through such experiences, and his hatred for Preston grew even stronger. "Does your mother know about this?"

Mentioning Blair, Allison sneered, "Even if she knew, so what? She'd rather hypnotize herself into believing her marriage is happy than believe I was wronged! The only person in the Bennett family I care about is my grandma. Although my grandpa gave me shares, I know he only acknowledges me out of necessity!"

Allison, though only eighteen, saw things more clearly than most people. She had already noticed her parents' issues even before she was ten. She remembered asking Blair, "If you're unhappy, why not get a divorce?"

But Blair's reaction was to slap Allison and yell, "Allison, what kind of child tells their parents to get a divorce? How can you say such a thing? I can't believe you would be so cruel!"
