Chapter 1132

She mildly puffed her cheeks, then turned her head, her duvet slowly covering her: "You can get on with your work now."

Alexander Foster saw the bashful side of the little girl and was filled with satisfaction. He kissed the ticket she had given him and said, "I’m really looking forward to your performance."

At this, a smile played upon Chloe Collins’ lips.

The party didn’t mean much to her before, but now, after hearing those words, she felt a sense of duty.

-

The Fosters.

Immediately after Robert Foster returned, there was a festive atmosphere at home.

Evelyn Thompson was personally cooking, preparing the children’s favorite dishes.

Inside Robert’s upstairs bedroom.

Robert was bringing out the gifts, showing them one by one to Wanda Wesley. He had gifts for everyone in the family.

There was even one for Layla Lowell.

Except for Wanda’s gift.

Wanda’s eager eyes went dim the moment he closed his suitcase.

After Robert had laid out all the gifts, he said, "Let’s give these to them later. By the way, I didn’t come back just to celebrate my brother’s birthday, I also have to provide backup vocals for Chloe. The performance is tomorrow night, haha."

He spoke incessantly. Listening to him speak, however, felt awkward, as if he were grasping for things to say.

Wanda asked him, "Do you feel uncomfortable being with me?"

She twisted her hands nervously, finally asking the question that had been gnawing at her for several days.

Looking back on their relationship over the past few months, things seemed quite strange.

It appeared as if she were alone in her affection, while Robert was merely reluctant to hurt her.

Because she had confessed her love to him that evening, she thought that she had left Robert dumbfounded.

Whatever she said, he agreed.

Looking back now, it seemed as if he was only agreeing and accommodating out of fear of hurting her.

Robert Foster: "No, not at all."

Looking at his uncomfortable expression, Wanda felt a sharp sting in her heart.

"I have something to take care of. I’ll leave first."

She got up and left the room, her figure receding into loneliness.

Robert wanted to go after her, but something held him back, dragging him down. For some reason, he couldn’t get up.

It wasn’t until the door closed did he annoyedly smack his forehead.

Damn it, what the hell was wrong with him?

Why was he so nervous?

He took a small box out of his pocket and opened it to reveal a pair of couple rings.

When he was taking out the gifts from his suitcase just now, his mind was filled with how to present this gift. In the end, he couldn’t even bring it up.

He was way too nervous.

In the afternoon, when Chloe came back, the two practiced together in the family’s practice room.

Robert had rewritten the song in advance, emphasizing the female part even more. The style of the song was both soft and strong, perfectly balanced.

"By the way, Chloe, who’s going to do the piano part? My brother?"

"No."

"Then who?"

"You’ll know tomorrow. There will be no problem with his part, so we just need to get comfortable with it."

Robert nodded.

Hers was the main singing part in this song, while he acted as supporting vocals.

In the middle, there would be a minute-long instrumental performance that was pretty intense.

He was looking forward to it.

"Are we going to rehearse all day today?"

Chloe: "Do you have something to do tonight?"

Robert’s eyes fell as he hid a trace of discomfort: "Not anymore, your performance is the priority."

"In that case, go out with me in a bit. Everyone has gathered to practice for a while."

"Yeah, sure."

A hint of sadness crossed Robert’s eyes.

He wondered whether he would be able to present the ring smoothly.

Wanda must still be mad at him now.

The next day, in the morning, the Student Council organized a draw of the performing order. Chloe had Herbert Willis do the draw on her behalf.

A few minutes later, Herbert sent her a message, almost jumping with excitement.

"I’m so awesome! We’re the closing act! The second last performance!"

Not long after, his voice dropped a little: "Chloe, Mane York’s luck is better than ours, they are the final act..."
