Chapter 1511

After the ceremony ended, everyone dispersed to take their own photos.

After being pulled away by the boys in her department for a good while, Chloe Collins was finally pulled away by a man stewing in jealousy.

However, before she could reach his arms, she was quickly snatched up by Layla Lowell.

They belonged to different departments, quite some distance apart.

Layla Lowell ran energetically, cheerfully pulling Chloe Collins to go take pictures.

The only problem was, she was followed by Charles Carrington carrying a child.

Seeing this, Chloe Collins handed everything she had to Alex and ran off with Layla Lowell.

Alex threw Charles Carrington a knowing look, his clear voice laced with a hint of depression, "Rein in your baby’s mother a little. She monopolized my wife last night and now she’s becoming a touch too greedy."

Last night, as soon as Chloe Collins came home, she’d played video games half the night with Layla Lowell. Afterwards, they’d slept in the guest room together, leaving him alone in their bedroom.

Before Charles Carrington could respond, the young girl in his arms said: "Mommy didn’t want to see Daddy, so she went to stay with Auntie."

"Hush, sweetheart. It’s not like that. Don’t spout nonsense," Charles said, looking down at her.

But the little girl said, "It’s true. Mommy said she didn’t want to be with you."

A flicker of amusement flashed across Alexander’s lips, gone as quick as it came, but Charles Carrington caught it.

"Are you taking pleasure in our misfortune?" he asked, his eyes narrowing.

Alex gave a vague affirmative, a faint noble and leisurely glow in his eyes. He gracefully replied, "Mmm."

"You... "

Charles Carrington conceded defeat, amusing his daughter so much she burst into giggles.

Meanwhile, Chloe Collins was just standing around letting Layla Lowell take the pictures.

After a while, both of them each grabbed a cup of chill milk tea and sat down to rest.

Actually, today’s mood was a complicated mix of joy and sadness.

Wanda Wesley couldn’t make it.

"I enquired about her situation. She was in good spirits today. Robert took her for a walk outside the hospital. She seemed very happy."

After listening, Layla Lowell dropped her head and said sorrowfully, "What actually happened to her? She was perfectly healthy..."

The rest of her words choked in her throat.

After a moment of silence, she composed herself and tried to change the subject.

"By the way, have you two set a wedding date yet?"

"Yes, we have."

"When? This month?"

"Next year, on the sixth day of the New Year."

"So late?"

Chloe Collins nodded, "Yes, I heard that’s the most auspicious day. Plus, I don’t really want to deal with it right now."

Layla Lowell understood her. Alex’s grandfather hadn’t woken up yet, Wanda Wesley’s situation hadn’t been resolved, and even her own health was still being monitored.

"So, how do you plan to celebrate your birthday in a few days?"

Chloe Collins took a sip of her milk tea and said, "I don’t think we’ll do much. That day, there’s a shareholders’ meeting and we have to deal with the handover of the hotel. It’s going to be a busy day."

"Oh right, the results of the competition between you and Clara Carrington will be released this month."

Layla Lowell said with a smile, "You are assured to win! Over these three months, your hotel hasn’t stopped making headlines. So many people want to come to see what it’s like. To tell the truth, business is booming, right?"

"Yes, it’s not bad, it’s fully booked for the month." She smiled.

Layla Lowell beamed at her, "You two are seriously incredible, you’re a match made in heaven~."

Just as Chloe Collins was about to reply, she received a message.

[Run.]

The text was from an unknown number, originating from the Capitol.

"What’s wrong?"

Chloe Collins passed her the phone directly.

"Who sent this... is it a prank?"

"Excuse me, ladies, why the long faces? Are we not taking photos anymore?" Charles Carrington approached.

Alex was nearby.

Chloe Collins tugged at Alex’s sleeve and he immediately squatted down: "Yes?"

"There’s a problem."

Layla Lowell handed her phone to him.
