Chapter 1199: Chapter 1199: I Like the Way He Is_1

Chapter 1199

Lucas Locke and the others found it strange, they thought that men should not make women cry.

Especially a man of manners would never do such a thing, and they considered Alexander Foster to be such a man.

However, they were proven wrong by reality.

Mane York, the popular figure of Capitol University, the little princess, was just made to cry by Alexander Foster. It seemed like he scolded her to tears.

There was no physical contact between the two, only verbal communication. They couldn’t think of any other reason except that he had berated her to the point of tears.

Indeed, appearances can be deceiving...

A seemingly gentlemanly and handsome man could be lacking a warm heart towards women.

Lucas turned his head to look at Chloe Collins and said, "Junior, it must be hard for you being with him."

Chloe shifted her gaze back and asked, "What do you mean?"

Another senior chimed in: "Does he often make you... cry?"

"Yes, yes, it’s the first time I’ve seen Mane York cry. I’m really curious as to what he said to her."

"Regardless, making a girl cry isn’t good. He’s a man, after all."

"His expression just now was very cold. If I were a man chatting with him, I’d be intimidated too."

Chloe understood what they were implying. With a small smirk on her lips, she said, "Don’t laugh. I like him just the way he is."

Lucas and the others: "!!!"

As they saw Alexander making his way over, everyone who had finished eating quickly put down their chopsticks and hurried into the laboratory.

At the long dining table, only Chloe was left to eat.

Alexander came over and sat down: "Is this enough food for you?"

"I’m going to continue my experiment later. You can go now." Chloe took a sip of soup.

Alexander silently watched her, suddenly saying, "It’s heartless of you to feed me and then send me away."

Chloe glanced at him, noticing the dissatisfaction in his eyes.

"Not happy about it?"

"Hmm, not happy." The man responded softly.

Chloe’s beautiful eyes sparked with a playful smile. She leaned in and said teasingly, "Not happy? You’ll have to put up with it."

Alexander gently wiped a speck of oil from the corner of her mouth, his gaze soft, "I’ll accompany you, no matter how late it is."

A subtle gesture stirred the innate shyness deep within the girl’s bones.

The mischief in her eyes dimmed by half as she lowered her gaze to continue eating, "Then, you can just read or watch television here."

Alexander: "I want to hear your explanation."

Chloe shot him a glance: "What explanation?"

" ’Interested in her,’ " He repeated her short phrase succinctly.

Chloe’s eyes flickered, remembering the comment she had blurted out not long ago.

"Oh, about that, I’ll tell you after I’ve confirmed it."

"Hmm, let me guess then." The man didn’t press for an answer, his tone leisurely.

Chloe looked at him, slowly chewing her food, curious what he might guess.

A few seconds later, Alexander looked up at her, amusement in his eyes: "She is related to BDR."

Chloe: "..."

"How... did you guess?"

His eyes emitted a slightly tipsy haze. He leaned down to kiss her, "The only thing that could pique your interest that much is probably it."

His words were ordinary, but they evoked a faint sourness.

Chloe discarded her original plan and ended up sharing all of her thoughts with him.

"If she has X, you’ve just made her cry, and it could complicate things." She teased.

Then, she seamlessly asked, "So, what did you say to her?"

Alexander quirked a smile: "If you kiss me three times, I’ll tell you."
