Chapter 176
The Billionaire’s Maid Bride
A black luxury car slowly pulled into the Lindberg familyâs mansion It came to a stop right at the front door.
A servant rushed into the living room, âSteve, Steve, Mr. George is back.â
âWhat? Georgeâs back? Quick, go tell Mr. and Mrs..â
As soon as Steve finished his sentence, he was out the door.
About two minutes later Allison looked up to see a man dressed in a white tracksuit walk in He had a face similar to Lucianâs, but his eyebrows and eyes were softer He saw Allison and gave a brief smile. âYou must be Lucianâs fiancee, Penelopeâ
Allison stood up, already knowing who this man was This was Lucianâs second brother, George Lindberg âI didnât expect to see Penelope here. I rushed over and didnât have time to prepare a gift. George chuckled as he took a bag from his assistantâs hand, âIâm not sure what you like. This was onginally for a friend, but Iâll give it to you since we met today. Iâll prepare something especially for you laterâ
Allison was slightly taken aback, then laughed, âYouâre too kind.â
Georgeâs assistant told her, âMiss Zimmer, please accept it. Itâs Mr. Georgeâs sentiment.â
Allison hesitated for a few seconds, then reached out to take it.
Upstairs, a manâs deep voice echoed, âNo need.â
Lucian slowly descended the stairs, âIf itâs a gift intended for someone else, we donât need it.â
He stood in front of Allison, blocking her view. The tense atmosphere was tangible.
The relationship between Lucian and his brother didnât seem too good.
Itâs been said that big families like the Lindbergs were riddled with internal strife.
George laughed, âI wasnât thoughtful enough. Iâll prepare a gift specifically for Penelope next time.â
Lucian smirked, âAllison, havenât you thanked George yet?â
Allison softly said, âGeorge, thank you.â
George walked upstairs to Carterâs study.
Downstairs, Lucian looked at Allison, âTry to keep your distance from him when you see him in the future.â
She nodded, âI understand.â
âUnderstand what?â Seeing her suddenly become obedient, Lucian raised an eyebrow. He reached out to help remove her sunglasses.
Allison took two steps back, âI understand that I need to stay away from him. My eyes are a bit inflamed, Iâd better keep the glasses on, I donât want to scare people at dinner. â
Women are always selfâconscious about their looks, Lucian continued, âDid you bring any medicine?â
âI brought some eye drops.â
âWhere is my mother?â
âShe just left with Kamilla She should be in her bedroom.â
âMy mother just left the hospital, and her eyes are just recovering. If you have time, you can visit and chat with her moreâ
âSure, we were chatting in the living room just now.â Allison abruptly stopped.
Lucian looked at her, âWhat were you chatting about?â
âWe were talking about Allison coughed lightly. âWe were talking about your childhoodâ
âWhatâs so interesting about my childhoodâ
âI heard from Mrs Miranda that when you were two years old, you loved wearing pink dressesâ
So, thatâs how rumors start The handsome face of the man instantly turned a bit awkward.
Allison held back her chuckles.
With her sunglasses on, he couldnât see her eyes, but she could clearly see the embarrassment flashing in his eyes. It was the first time she had seen Lucian so embarrassed A few seconds later, the man clarified, âThatâs not true. My mother was just talking nonsenseâ
Allison saw the blush on the manâs ear. She tried to suppress her laughter, then nodded, âYes, I know, you donât have to explain anymore.â
