The Billionaire’s Maid Bride

Chapter 9

As soon as Allison walked into the living room, she was stopped by Christopher who was sitting on the sofa.

Allison bowed apologetically. “Mr. Flanagan, I’m really sorry. I’ll be more careful next time. Can you please not kick me out?”

Christopher waved his hand, signaling her to sit down on the sofa. His tone wasn’t as sharp as Leah’s, “Allison, you’re like a daughter to me, and this place is your home. It’s not your fault today.”

“Thank you, Mr. Flanagan.”

A smile appeared on Allison’s face at the thought of not being kicked out. Then she heard Christopher ask, “How’s your mom doing lately?”

“She’s been recovering quite well. The doctors said her condition has been good recently.” She paused, not mentioning her mother’s need for a kidney transplant.

Christopher was a close friend of her late father, Joshua, and had been looking after her and her mother since Joshua’s death. She didn’t want to burden him with the knowledge of Leah and her daughter’s actions towards them.

Upon hearing this, Christopher nodded, handing her a bank card, “That’s good to hear, take this money for now. I’ll visit her in a few days.”
