The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Sabrina was munching away when Mabel came over with a big bowl of ravioli.

"Hey, Sabrina, hope I'm not interrupting. I whipped up some ravioli for you. Dig in!" Sabrina grinned. "Thanks, Mabel!"

Allison noticed Mabel limping and frowned. "Is Mabel having trouble with her legs?"

Sabrina nodded. "Yeah, Orion mentioned she has severe rheumatoid arthritis. They've spent a ton on treatments, but nothing's worked. If it gets worse, she might end up paralyzed."

Allison nodded, got up, and called Mabel over to sit down. She took a look at Mabel's legs.

They were deformed, with varicose veins and bulging blood vessels that looked pretty alarming.

"Mabel, don't worry. Allison's a doctor, and she's really good!" Sabrina reassured her.

Mabel felt a bit self-conscious about her legs, fearing ridicule, but hearing that Allison was a doctor gave her hope.

Allison said, "With massage therapy and herbal baths, we can ease the pain. I can prescribe some medicine for you to try for a week. It might help, but full recovery will take at least six months."

Mabel was thrilled to hear there was hope for recovery, but worried about the cost. She quickly shook her head. "No, no, I can just take some painkillers. They only cost a few bucks. We can't afford expensive treatments."

Just then, a middle-aged man rushed in from outside. "We'll pay for the treatment, no matter the cost, as long as it helps her legs!"

Allison looked at the man, Orion Simpson. He had a rugged face and a muscular build, clearly someone who did physical labor.

"Orion, we need to save money for our son's house. If we spend it all on me, how will our son get married?" Mabel protested.

Orion disagreed, his voice firm. "You always say that, but think about it. If you get better, you can help our son with the kids and cooking. If you get worse, our son's life will be even harder!"

Allison was surprised by Orion's determination and his deep bond with Mabel. Despite their modest means, Orion was willing to spend everything on Mabel's treatment, a rare quality in many men today.

Allison said, "My treatment plan isn't expensive. The herbs are common and not costly. You can find them in the woods behind the school. The massage therapy is free, so you only need to buy the medicine."

Mabel and Orion were overjoyed and thanked Allison profusely. Allison, unfazed, asked Mabel to find a quiet place for the massage therapy.

She then took Orion to the woods behind the school to gather the necessary herbs and gave him a bottle of medicinal powder.

Allison explained, "This is a blend I made myself. It promotes blood circulation and reduces swelling. Use a little before each herbal bath, which should last an hour. Keep track of the time."

Orion said, "Thank you, Dr. Bennett. You're truly a kind person!"

Sabrina watched from the side, her admiration for Allison growing. "Orion, Allison is Joe's student. Her medical skills are top-notch, so you can trust her!"

Orion insisted on paying Allison, but she waved him off.

Allison chuckled, "If you really want to pay, how about in ravioli? Sabrina and I can come over for ravioli, and that will be the fee!"

Orion grinned, "Deal, Dr. Bennett. I'll cover your meals from now on, and Sabrina's too!"

Sabrina beamed, and Allison playfully pinched her cheek. With afternoon classes ahead, Allison took Sabrina to her classroom before heading out, but Sabrina stopped her. "Allison, you promised to take me with you tonight!"

Earlier, during lunch, Allison had mentioned going out for barbecue with Teddy, and Sabrina insisted on joining. Allison had agreed.

Allison reassured her, "Don't worry. I'll visit the nursing home and pick you up after your class."

Satisfied with Allison's promise, Sabrina went into her classroom, where she was immediately surrounded by classmates.

"Sabrina, do you know Allison? I saw you two treating someone in the cafeteria. Isn't she just a teenager? Is she even qualified to practice medicine?" The question was sharp and sarcastic, making Sabrina frown in displeasure. "Allison got her medical license at sixteen and is now a medical doctor at eighteen. If she wasn't qualified, how could she treat Mabel? Why are you so interested in Allison? You're not even studying medicine, and even if you were, you couldn't surpass her!"

Sabrina might seem carefree and young, but she was raised by the Lewis family and wasn't easily intimidated.

"I was just asking. Why so sensitive? Medical doctor, medical license, all just words. Who knows if it's true? If something goes wrong, it'll be a big mess!" The speaker, Marilyn Hill, was known as the prettiest girl in the department until Allison and Sabrina arrived. Learning that Allison was treating people, Marilyn started spreading rumors that Allison was practicing without a license and using Mabel as a test subject, potentially endangering lives.

Unaware of the rumors, Allison headed to the nursing home to see Carl, who was about to leave. She felt it was important to visit him.

Seeing Allison, Carl was delighted. He was walking in the yard, his face showing a healthy glow, a sign of HeartGuard's effectiveness.

Carl asked, "Here to see me off?"

Allison nodded and handed him a box of pastries. "These were my favorite as a kid. I brought them for you to try. I also wanted to discuss the island. I drew up some plans and wanted your opinion."

Carl opened the box, tasted a pastry, and then looked at the plans Allison handed him.

Carl analyzed, "The layout is good, but it won't work. Before any renovations, we need to set up a security net. I've already sent the engineering team. They should have the initial work done before you arrive. I reviewed the plans, and some parts extend underwater. I want to build a small port for submarines."noveldrama

Allison was surprised by Carl's ambitious idea. "That's a sensitive area. It might attract attention from the navy."

Carl was unfazed. "Don't worry. I have diplomatic immunity. As long as Alexander can handle the Novarian government, there won't be any issues."
