Chapter 158
Leo hadn’t expected Lucian to drop such a bombshell on him. Allison, the gentle–looking chick? He
was at a loss, glancing at James, unsure if Lucian was trying to trap him.
James, overhearing, chimed in, “Well, I like girls like her. They are pure and gentle..” He hadn’t even
finished his sentence when he noticed Leo giving him the death stare. What had he said wrong?
Why was Leo glaring at him?
“Lucian, don’t you think Allison looks really young? And she’s got a great vibe… James rambled on,
“Like a fresh college girl, wearing a white dress, exuding youth and innocence when she smiles… Why
was Lucian still glaring at him? His face was growing darker by the second.

“Ah! Lucian, I think my stomach is acting up. I need to hit the john.” James finally sensed the tension,
feeling that if he said one more word, Lucian would lose it. Pretending to be in pain, he quickly made an

Leo could feel the tension in the air and a chill ran down his spine. He thought he might have to assist
James in making a quick exit. After all, James was so skinny, how could he possibly withstand a blow
from Lucian?

But Lucian’s taste seemed to have changed. Could it be that he liked the innocent type like Allison?
But wasn’t Lucian already engaged to Penelope?
He knew that Penelope had saved Lucian’s life and Lucian felt obligated to her. Now that Penelope was
pregnant, the Lindberg family’s future was unpredictable.
When Allison got home, she was ready for a showdown with Leah, expecting her to be furious. But
Leah seemed to be in the dark.
Without wasting any time, Allison quickly freshened up and went to see Grace. She couldn’t see
anything clearly due to the black veil in front of her eyes. It wasn’t until she reached the hospital room
that she removed it.
Grace was hooked up to all sorts of tubes and looked extremely weak. Allison was stunned, her heart
pounding heavily
“Mom Mom…”
Allison rushed to her bedside.
Grace had lost so much weight in just a few days that her cheeks were hollow. Tears welled up in
Allison’s eyes as she saw Grace’s pale face. Grace weakly opened her eyes, “Allison, you’re here.”
“Mom, what happened? I thought you were getting better. How did you become like this all of a
sudden?”
“Allison, there’s something I need to tell you.”
Grace’s frail hand gripped Allison’s tightly. Her voice was weak and hoarse, like a flickering candle
about to go out.
Your father and brother’s death…it wasn’t an accident.”

‘Mom…”
“It wasn’t an accident. Find a man named Adrian; he will tell you more. Also, don’t worry about me
anymore. Live your life as you wish. I may not be able to
accompany you anymore.”
“Don’t worry, Mom. You’ve already had a kidney transplant. As long as you take your medications on
time, you will recover. I will take care of you. I will always be with you!”
“Allison, there’s a metal box behind my wardrobe. It contains an agate necklace. Take good care of it. If
Leah ever treats you badly, give this pendant to Christopher Flanagan
“Mom, stop talking. You will be fine. I will go to Mrs. Flanagan right now and beg her to spare you
“No.” Grace held onto Allison’s hand tightly.
Allison pressed her face against her mother’s thin hand.
Grace gently stroked her daughter’s face, “Allison, I need you to promise me something.”
