Chapter 1185
Chloe Collins’ glance drifted over the wristwatch as if it was just a typically ordinary watch. She said nonchalantly, "Hmm, it’s alright."
The world-renowned watch receiving such lukewarm praise left Mane York with an awkward smile.
"It seems Miss Collins doesn’t have much knowledge in this area," she said.
The master glanced at Chloe and changed the subject, "Manie, make sure you personally hand Alex the watch later and put it on him yourself. He will like it."
"Alright," Mane York replied, her smile shy.
Chloe lifted her gaze, not seeing Alexander Foster, and there was no sign of his presence in the room.
Unfazed, she asked softly, "Brother Alex hasn’t arrived yet?"
The master gave a faint hum, "He’s busy at the company. He’ll be back soon. Sit down and keep me company."
"Chlo-Chlo, my darling, you’re back. Are you tired from school? Once Brother Alex is back, he can give you a massage."
Evelyn Thompson’s voice suddenly drifted over.
Chloe’s ears, hidden by her hair, reddened slightly.
Without her speaking, the master’s voice rang out, "Evelyn, don’t mislead the child. It’s not appropriate to say these provocative things."
Evelyn gave a forced laugh, grabbing Chloe’s arm and speaking to the master, "Right, Dad, I’m preparing dinner today and I wanted Chloe to assist me. You can start entertaining the guest."
This guest was obviously Mane York.
The master’s smile faded a bit, "Manie is almost family. Treat her as such. Yes, Manie, you don’t have to be so formal. Consider this your home and you’re welcome anytime."
Mane York gave a polite and generous smile, "To me, having Grandpa here in Geraon is like having family back home. I won’t stand on ceremony."
"Good! Good! Hahaha..." The master was delighted.
A whisper from Evelyn reached Chloe’s ear, "Don’t overthink it. This is the master’s one-sided wish. Aunt Evelyn only has you in her heart."
"Let’s go to the kitchen," Evelyn added.
Chloe nodded indifferently and followed.
Evelyn let out a sigh of relief.
She was worried that Chloe might feel uncomfortable here, hence, she had suggested going to the kitchen.
Half an hour ago, the master had suddenly shown up with Mane York and had been hanging around, claiming to wait for Alexander Foster. He wanted Alexander Foster to take Mane York shopping tomorrow.
When she sensed something was wrong, she immediately called Chloe back. The master was probably hoping that Alexander Foster could spend time with Mane York and build a rapport tomorrow as it was a Saturday.
"Aunt Evelyn, let me help in the kitchen. I’ve learned some cooking before and even won awards! Although it was only a small competition held at school, there were still over a thousand participants and I won first place," Mane York suddenly stood up, saying confidently to Evelyn.
The master said, "Yes, yes. Let Manie also try, get familiar. Evelyn, you can just stand by, let the chef guide them. I want to eat the dishes prepared by you two later. The person who cooks the best will receive a reward."
Mane York responded enthusiastically, "Great! I will definitely prepare the most delicious dishes for you to enjoy! Just be at ease, Grandpa!"
Chloe seemed indifferent, as if she could cook because she had nothing better to do.
Evelyn was dumbfounded, "..."
"Dad, wouldn’t this be inappropriate..." Evelyn began.
"There’s nothing wrong with it. You sit down and let the juniors do the work," The master’s voice dropped a bit.
Evelyn had no other option. In this house, what the master said was law.
The two girls were led to the kitchen, with the chef there to guide them.
