Chapter 140

The man’s disdainful look at her was deeply etched in Allison’s memory. The misunderstandings between her and Lucian were simply too deep to be explained one by one, and he wouldn’t believe her anyway Allison closed her eyes, feeling incredibly worn out.

Her body slowly slumped onto the couch, the soft cushions making her even more tired She started to dream, and the scene in her dream was a wedding She was standing next to Lucian, and in front of her was a white lace veil. Through the veil, she felt this man’s gentleness for the first time The scene was so pure and dreamy Then the scene suddenly changed She remembered the first time she met Lucian He was drugged by someone, and she told him her name was Penelope.

These scenes flashed rapidly through Allison’s mind She felt dizzy even in her dreams, as if standing at the edge of a cliff and falling down.

When Allison wake up, her back was soaked in cold sweat and her body was trembling She picked up the cup of water, found it had become cold, took a sip, and her throat felt somewhat comfortable.

When Lucian walked out of the conference room, Shawn was reporting to him. As they walked to the door of the CEO’s office, Shawn suddenly remembered Allison and hurriedly said to Lucian, “Mr.

Lindbergh, Ms. Zimmer is here, she’s in the lounge.”

Lucian stopped in his tracks.

“Allison?”

“Yes, Ms. Zimmer has been waiting for you there for an hour.”

“Let her come to the office.”

Shawn glanced at Sheila, sitting next to him. Sheila immediately stood up and knocked on the door of the lounge, saying, “Ms. Zimmer, Mr. Lindbergh is here; he wants you to go to his office”

Allison walked into Lucian’s office and saw him sitting on the couch, legs crossed, looking at her thoughtfully Allison went over and said, “If you have any complaints against me, just tell me directly. If I’ve done anything to upset you, I will apologize, but please let off Dr. Dylan. He’s innocent, he’s a good doctor, he shouldn’t face a lawsuit and shouldn’t be fired.”

Lucian put down his cup of tea; and suddenly laughed, his eyes shining with a cold light. “Dr. Dylan?”

He repeated the name: “You came to see me today because of Dr Dylan?”

Allison clenched her fingers tightly and bowed slightly. “I offended you before; it was my arrogance. I hope you can let Dr. Dylan go.”

“Dr. Dylan, is he worth you doing all this for him?” Lucian said coldly. “Allison, is this your attitude when asking for a favor? What’s Dr. Dylan that he even has a woman pleading for him?!”

A stiff smile appeared on Allison’s face; she seemed at a loss. “What do you want me to do?”

“When you ask for a favor, you should have the right attitude. Allison, do I still need to teach you this?”

Allison’s teeth clenched tightly. Her fingers also clenched tightly, her knuckles turning pale.

The man’s voice was low and cold. “Take off your clothes.”

Shawn immediately turned around and left the office.

Allison’s body started to tremble involuntarily But still, she seemed to have anticipated all of this. After a while, she slowly let out a breath, then took off her denim jacket, revealing the white shirt underneath.

It seemed like the air conditioning in the office wasn’t on; her skin quickly covered in a layer of cold sweat.

Allison looked up, her eyes reddening She looked at Lucian. This man was sitting on the couch, legs crossed, like a king in the darkness. His eyes were so deep, they made her feel scared Allison took off her last piece of clothing, then hugged herself.

Lucian raised his hand and said “Come here.”

Allison walked over, step by step. She seemed to already know what she was facing
