LittleNovelChapter 940: But thinking about Ferdinand and Rebecca's interactions, she couldn't help but chuckle. “From sparring partners to sparks flying, huh?" Her musings were confirmed when they arrived at Ontdale Airport. As Allison reached the exit, a familiar figure darted toward her.
"Allison, darling! I've missed you!" Rebecca threw her arms around her, enveloping her in a tight hug.
She pulled back just enough to scrutinize Allison, her eyes sharp with concern. "You didn't get into trouble, did you?" Allison shook her head, her smile warm but evasive. "Of course not.

She suspected that Allison had landed in trouble because of Kellan.
"I warned you, didn't I? If anything happens to her because of you, there will be hell to pay!" Allison sighed and gently patted Rebecca's shoulder. "Rebecca, don't work yourself into a frenzy. I'm fine now, aren't I? And besides, this isn't his fault." Her tone was calm but firm as she offered a concise explanation.

"Allison, this injury is on me. If I had done things differently you wouldn't have been hurt.
