Chapter 1418
"I’ll try again tomorrow."
"Well, this is not something to rush, let’s eat first."
Chloe Collins’ gaze returned to the food. She reached out for her bowl and chopsticks: "Let me eat on my own."
He chuckled, "Last bite."
For some reason, feeding her gave him a deep sense of satisfaction.
The conversation switched topics several times. Alexander Foster mentioned her actions when she had just appeared, teasing her.
"If I’m not mistaken, you flung Virginia Stark aside with a mere flick of your finger, didn’t you?"
Chloe Collins set her chopsticks down, stayed silent for a moment, shifted her gaze, and hooked her fingers towards a pack of napkins.
The next moment, a napkin from the other side of the table "flew over" all by itself, landing in her hands.
Even Alexander Foster, as worldly as he was, raised his brows at the sight.
"I’m not too sure why as well, perhaps it was the Meteorite Crystal Powder they added later, anyway, it is a good thing for me."
She flexed her finger, enjoying the new-found sense of power.
Alexander Foster expressed his concern, "Are you feeling alright, though?"
"No, I feel more comfortable now than ever before. I feel light and relaxed," she grinned.
"I think...we succeeded."
He gave a slight smile, "Could you perform it one more time?"
"Okay." A flash of mischief crossed Chloe Collins’ eyes as she turned her hand towards him.
The man suddenly felt his feet lift from the ground; the chair rose with him.
With a flick of her finger, the man immediately left the chair, turning mid-air as she caught him in a princess carry.
She winked at him. "Aside from this, I’m pretty strong too."
Alexander Foster: "Cough, cough, cough..."
He quickly landed back on the ground and steadied himself. "Chlo-Chlo, let the man handle these things."
He gently picked her up, his eyes sparkled with amusement, "It should be this way."
Chloe Collins put away her playful thoughts and snuggled into him, murmuring, "Alright, I’ll listen to you on this one."
Alexander Foster was pleased. He lowered his head and nuzzled her nose with his, mumbling, "So obedient."
There was a tentative knock on the door.
Chloe Collins’ smile faded slightly; she let go of him and landed on the ground, "Come on in."
Virginia Stark and Christian Carrington walked in with smiles and a bouquet of flowers.
"Miss Collins, I am truly sorry for the offense. Please accept my apology." Virginia Stark handed over the flowers.
Chloe Collins had no intention of holding a grudge against her. After all, if it hadn’t been for Virginia’s actions, she wouldn’t have woken up.
She accepted the flowers.
Upon handing over the flowers, Mr. and Mrs. Stark wore beaming smiles on their faces and quickly asked, "Miss Collins, may I ask when you plan to return to the Carringtons?"
Chloe Collins understood their intentions.
She had not intended to interfere with the Carringtons’ affairs, but the emergence of the Harmony Complex had made her hesitate.
"Save me, dear sister," Charles Carrington’s voice drifted in from outside.
He had quite a change in tone.
The moment he entered, he swung an arm over Alexander Foster’s shoulder and gestured towards Chloe Collins, "Besides, Alex needs your aid. The Fosters have been quite isolated these past few years, and the shareholders in our family are neutral, not daring to offend the Whites. Your presence would certainly help."
Upon hearing this, Chloe Collins glanced at Alexander, "That makes sense."
He muttered softly, "You don’t have to consider me. The Fosters will bounce back eventually. You do what you want."
This question was also indirectly asking her whether or not she would recognize Chase Carrington as her father.
If she wanted to vie for the Carringtons, recognizing him was unavoidable.
He had a good impression of Chase Carrington; after all, he had brought a father’s love into her life.
Chloe Collins looked into his eyes, then lowered her gaze to ponder.
