Chapter 1295: Chapter 1295: Miss Collins, You Win_1

Chapter 1295

Logan Locke heaved a sigh and asked, "How could this happen? A while ago, I had been in touch with her and she said that Liam Locke was slowly getting better. Just a few days ago she indicated that he was willing to get out and walk, so how could his condition suddenly deteriorate?"

Alexander Foster folded his eyelids and solemnly said, "There was an unfortunate incident."

He showed Logan the surveillance footage from Jerry River’s house on that day.

Logan only saw a girl knocking loudly at the door of Liam’s room, barging in, and then Liam holding his head, yelling while rushing out. Finally, the girl stormed out, her face filled with rage, walking away in the opposite direction.

"Did Liam get injured when he ran out? Who hit him?"

Alexander Foster replied, "The place he went to is remote, it’s impossible to find out."

Logan’s eyes revealed deep sorrow as he asked, "What exactly did that girl do to him?!"

As he spoke, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Wait a minute. Is this girl the granddaughter of the Duke of York?"

"Indeed."

Upon seeing Alexander Foster nod, his face looked terrible!

"A few years ago, this girl came to us demanding to cancel the engagement! There wasn’t a shred of respect in her eyes. Now she has hurt my seventh brother, I will definitely pursue this matter to the end!"

Royal Palace, the night breeze caressed gently.

"Miss Collins, you can leave now."

A transparent plastic bag was handed over, containing a red mobile phone.

The girl sitting at the table reading a book looked up. Her fair, rosy face showed no signs of distress from her house arrest, remaining calm and tranquil.

She glanced at the clock in the room. She had been here for less than two days, half the time she expected.

She opened the phone and read through the messages. There were missed calls from Alexander Foster as well as other messages from various people.

She replied to Alexander with a message and then headed towards the palace gate.

As the heavy palace door opened, the figure waiting outside brought her footsteps to a halt.

Jerry River was standing alone ten meters directly in front, a car behind him.

She casually put her phone back into her pocket and strolled over.

Jerry’s expression was still that of arrogance; he wore an air of haughtiness, gazing at her with deep, brooding eyes as she walked closer, then he finally spoke: "Now everything is as you wished, young lady."

Chloe Collins scrutinized him, her calm eyes brimming with a touch of doubt. "I’m not quite sure what you mean by that."

"Humph, still playing dumb? You won! You beat Manie, you beat the entire Duke’s Mansion! Alexander practically moved Goldasia over here. How could you not win? I underestimated you!"

He kept his face stony, but his eyes kept darting to Chloe’s face, seeming to struggle with something left unsaid.

"However... how did you manage to get the Second Prince of Goldasia to respect you so much? When he went to see the Duke, he kept calling you ’Miss Collins’, treating you as though you were a very important person."

Chloe raised her lips to smile, "Guess," she teased.

Jerry frowned at her, giving a cold snort, his face clearly saying ’I’m not going to guess’.

He sighed heavily and said, "Anyway, the Duke’s Mansion has agreed with the Second Prince of Goldasia not to pursue you anymore, and I... I will go to your side to help temporarily!"

"Oh, so that’s it. The Duke’s Mansion lost, so does that make you my spoils of war?"

"You... Don’t get too arrogant, young lady!" his face turned crimson with suppressed rage.

Chloe lifted her lips into a small smirk, her eyes twinkling with mischief. She walked past him and said, "In that case, please get in touch with Mr. Green about the cost, you can name your price. As long as it’s within my means, we can discuss."

A car pulled up in front of Chloe and a secret guard got out and opened the door for her, displaying utmost respect.
