Chapter 1573

Chloe Collins replied, "He went to the bathroom. He’ll be back soon."

The little girl then settled back down.

A while later, she relaxed her brows and said with a smile, "He really is nearby. I can hear him talking with a police officer."

"You have good hearing."

Chloe was not surprised; she had expected this.

The little girl asked, "Is it because I’m a Mutated People? You’re different from ordinary people, right? I can see that you’re much more capable than me. You were so imposing when you fought the villain earlier."

She spoke the truth.

Chloe simply said, "My circumstances are somewhat different from yours. You all don’t have many side effects and are remarkably resilient, whereas both my mother and I aren’t."

"Why?"

"Because we didn’t take the same medicine."

But the little girl said, "Not all of us are the same either. Many can’t live past the age of thirty, like my parents..."

She hung her head, dejected, "They said that only those who’ve truly ’fused’ can live a long time. Even longer than normal humans, living for one or two centuries isn’t an issue. Even, some said that if such a person appears, her descendants would inherit her strengths and wouldn’t reject her. Her blood could even improve others’ genes."

At that, Chloe simply smiled lightly and said nothing.

It was all but speculation.

"Why did you save me?" she asked.

Without hesitation, the little girl said, "Because Milty asked me to. He said that if he suddenly fell asleep and was replaced by a different person, that person may hurt you. So, he asked me to protect you."

Chloe’s expression suddenly grew still.

The girl blinked at her and asked, "Sis, have you considered what I told you before? Don’t see him again. Wait until he has successfully forgotten you, then I’ll tell you. You two, by then, can meet as good friends.

My dad said, no love can last forever. It all has an expiry date. Once it’s past that date, there will be no one left sad."

She had an innocent look in her eyes.

Chloe chuckled lightly, saying nothing. She took off a pair of hearing aids and placed them in the girl’s hands.

"If you find it too noisy, put these on. It will give you some peace."

Her eyes lit up, "What amazing things are these? I’m going to put them on now!"

She picked one up and put it in her ear. Instantly, she burst into smiles, "It really works! This is great, I can finally have a good sleep. I won’t put the other one on for now, I want to hear Milty’s voice."

Seeing the expectation and happiness in the little girl’s eyes, Chloe couldn’t help but curve her lips into a smile.

She didn’t stay for long. Not wanting to cause Milton White any discomfort, she quietly left.

Not long after she left, Milton White arrived at the hospital ward.

"Milty! Chloe just gave me a pair of miraculous earplugs, after putting them in, I feel so much better."

Milton White nodded lightly, his eyes filled with thoughts.

Chloe returned home. As soon as she got to the doorway, she bumped into Alexander Foster who was hurrying out.

Seeing her, he froze for a moment. Then his gaze quickly landed on her clothes.

"How did you get hurt?!"

He looked anxious, as if he was ready to scoop her up and rush her to the hospital.

Chloe held his hand and said, "It’s someone else’s."

Even so, Alexander Foster still thoroughly checked her over before relaxing.

He had just returned from work at the company. When he couldn’t find her at home, it took several calls before he got through. He rushed out in panic and, finally, he saw her coming back.

"Why are you so reckless? Hmm? Didn’t I tell you not to leave the house alone?" He softly chided her.
