Chapter125
"I really can't be sure of that. Allen has never had any boyfriends before. She was so busy with her life that she simply did not have the time to date. But I think that she would be especially grateful to someone who treats her well. As long as you are nice to her, you should be able to make her fall for her I guess?" Rita asked. She wasn't sure about this, well whatever. If he is serious, he is going to figure it out himself. She woke bother herself anymore. As long as Allen doesn't get hurt in the end then she was fine.
Raymond looked at the girl. He just had to be good to Allen? Thinking about it now, it seemed that he was always mean to her....he had to do better from now on.
He was going to turn away from her when he thought of something. Allen had never really told him how she got to know Ryan. She just gave him a vague answer. He really wanted to know now. How did she get to know Ryan?
"You.... you know Ryan right?" Raymond asked. He had heard her talking about Ryan with Allen that day so he knew that this girl knew Ryan.
For some reason, Rita could not bring herself to lie to this man. She found herself caving from the pressure.
"Yes....I know him! Is something wrong?" Rita asked.
"Yes. Tell me how Allen got to know that person!" Raymond demanded.
Rita did not want to tell. "About this, I think that you should talk about it with Allen herself" Rita said.
Raymond sneered. "Do you think that I will be asking you if she told me anything useful?" He asked back.
Rita was conflicted. Should she tell? "Let me ask you something. Do you know Ryan? Why we you concerned if Allen knows him or not?" Rita asked.
"Unfortunately yes. I do know him. Due to some really irrelevant family relationships, the both of us are related. He is my cousin" Raymond said.
Rita was sure that she had expended years worth of shock today! The Billionaire Raymond Walker is in love with her friend. And to make matters even worse he is the cousin of her arch nemesis Ryan?! Can someone please explain what the hell is going on here?!
"So are you going to tell me?" Raymond asked.
Well, he is his cousin. What could she hide? And the pressure from this man was just making Rita scared out of her senses.
"Well, the only people who can tell you the full story is Allen herself and Ryan. I only know bits and pieces from what Allen told me. She met Ryan and he seemed to really like her. But she was not interested in him, but at least the both of them were friends. One day, Ryan dragged her to meet some friends with him. He got into trouble and he ran away leaving her behind. They said that they weren't going to let Allen go if he did not come back. Well, some people did call the police but before they got there, Allen's grandmother who heard that something had happened to her daughter went to find her. In the end, Allen's grandmother got badly hürt" Rita said. She knew that she had made the story as pretty as she could. He should go ask for the specifics from Allen herself. She would never be the one to tell him this.
Raymond cletched his fists in anger. Ryan really is the definition of completely crazy! After doing that to w girl and leaving her there on her own, he still had the guts to come back to her and ask her to be with him? What really is he thinking in his head?! It was totally like Ryan. Causing trouble and then running away.
Rita could see that the man was really angry now. She did not want to be the reason why he fell out with his brother so she thought that she should at least pacify him.
"Well, you should not fall out with Ryan because of this. After all, he is your family. This happened a long time ago already... " Rita tried to explain.
"You don't need to worry. The knot reason he is alive right now is because he is my family" Raymond said.
Rita "....." Alright fine! She did not have anything to say after he said that.

Allen was in her grandmother's room holding her hand. She was really worried when she heard that she wanted to talk to her. She thought that her condition had worsened. She was really relived when she got here and found out that she was okay. She was even recovering really well.
But Allen was even more curious now. What does she want to talk to him when she told her to come?
"Grandma, you said that you have something that you want to talk about with me. What is it?" Allen asked her.
Lola looked at Allen. The girl that had given her the courage to move on with her life when she had nothing at all. The girl that gave her a reason when she did not have a reason to continue.
She thought that she should tell her the secret that she had been keeping to herself all this time. She was able to survive this time but what if she isn't so lucky the next time? What is she going to do then?
