Chapter 1692

She also mentioned that Milton White’s alter ego, upon learning of Joy Taylor’s whereabouts, was not in a hurry to rescue her, which was enough to show that his presence would only hinder efforts. To rescue Joy Taylor as quickly as possible, the real Milton White needed to return.

Currently, Milton White’s consciousness was still in a deep sleep, and the person leading the Whites was still this alter ego.

Therefore, the young girl hoped that she would meet with Milton White in person and awaken his consciousness.

This was not a matter for discussion with her, but a unilateral decision that had already been conveyed via email, specifying the time and place for the meeting.

The time was set for the next morning at five o’clock, at the Whites.

Her reason was that she hoped that when Milton woke up, he would see her first. His guard would be lower when he first woke up, and perhaps his consciousness would return.

After pondering for a long time, she also felt this method was the fastest.

Because Milton was currently the person in power at the Whites, everyone there followed his orders. With him present, the situation could be reversed in the shortest time possible.

When she returned to the front hall, the few people inside approached with concern and asked about the situation.

She looked at them and said, "I need to step out for a bit."

"Where are you going?"

"Orlando."

"No, no," Evelyn Thompson immediately objected. "We don’t even dare let you out of the house, how can we let you go to Orlando? No, it won’t do."

The Master spoke up, "Is there something necessary that requires you to go in person?"

"She can’t go for any necessary matters. It’s chaos over there, haven’t you watched the news?" Evelyn Thompson, fearing that Chloe Collins would slip away while she wasn’t paying attention, had already stepped forward to hold Chloe’s hand while speaking.

Looking at the situation, Chloe knew she couldn’t leave and had to think of another way.

Unintentionally, she caught sight of her reflection in the window and suddenly had an idea.

She sent a message to the child: Postpone by one day.

On the third day, just after six in the morning, the red leaves of the maple tree in the Whites’ courtyard had fallen to the ground, and a worker was bending down to sweep them.

At that moment, someone walked by, their steps leisurely.

The worker turned to look and saw only the slim figure and ink-black hair, silky as satin. Without seeing the face, one could tell it was a celestial being.

Unable to help, they took a couple of extra glances until they realized with astonishment how such a person could appear in their household.

When he wanted to get a better look, the person had already walked inside.

At the doorway, Ethel Collins, hearing noises, ran out and, seeing the visitor, exclaimed with a jump, "Chloe, you’ve come!"

The scene shifted, and with a light smile, Chloe nodded gently at her, "Please take me upstairs."

Just as Ethel was about to nod, she noticed Chloe’s flat and slender belly and asked, "Chloe, have you had the baby?"

She remembered that the last time she saw Chloe, she had a slightly protruding belly.

Chloe maintained her light smile, "Please lead the way."

Without thinking much of it, Ethel, focused on the urgent matter at hand, quickly led her upstairs.

"He has been going to bed very late these past days and then sleeps until nine in the morning. I have it all figured out," Ethel mumbled.

"Last night, while he wasn’t paying attention, I quietly cuffed his hands, hehe. Even if he tries to avoid seeing you later, it will be no use," she said, glancing back only to see that Chloe was still maintaining the expression from before, the corners of her mouth slightly raised. She didn’t seem as aloof as usual, yet her demeanor was still exceptional.

She didn’t utter any superfluous words.

The feeling in Ethel’s heart grew stranger and stranger.
