Chapter 28

Alexander Foster was training his Samoyed in the doghouse in the building next door.

He was dressed casually, with one hand in his pocket, his tall and imposing figure exuding a more relaxed manner than usual. He casually threw the small ball in his hand towards the target, and the Samoyed ran over.

"Bro!" Robert Foster ran over hastily.

Alexander didn’t look at him, instead giving the Samoyed a few commands to navigate the obstacles.

"Bro, I have something to tell you."

"Speak."

"Today, Chloe Collins got into a fight at school. Her classmates said that they were talking peacefully at first, but Chloe sent someone directly to the hospital. She’s very aggressive."

Alexander finally looked at him, "Is that what you want to tell me?"

Robert wasn’t surprised by his brother’s coldness. After all, besides work and this dog, he seemed to have no other interests.

"Mom and Dad don’t ask about the cause of the fight, they just blindly care about her. They really think of their daughter like crazy. Even if she’s not their biological child, they still spoil her so much."

"Jealous?" Alexander asked faintly.

Robert lifted his chin, "Why would I be jealous of a girl? I just think she’s a bit... two-faced."

Alexander’s eyes slightly changed as he stared at Robert for two seconds.

Robert said, "Actually, Raine told me something today. She said Chloe Collins is a delinquent student who often fights, steals, and likes to play pranks. Come to think of it, there has indeed been some unrest at home since she moved in."

After saying that, he quietly awaited his brother’s response.

Alexander’s handsome face remained calm and unmoved.

"Bro, you don’t have any reaction at all? There’s such a person at home, yet Mom and Dad are not only unguarded, but also treat her with extra love and care."

"Mom and Dad have been through more than you."

In other words, he doesn’t need Robert, a naive kid, to worry about it.

Robert knew what he meant, but was still worried, "But Raine’s words shouldn’t be false, right?"

Alexander was indifferent. "Who is Raine?"

Robert: "..."

"Raine is Chloe’s cousin! She often comes to our house as a guest and even greeted you. What kind of memory do you have?"

"Do you know her very well?" Alexander asked indifferently.

Robert was stumped by the question. Frankly speaking, he didn’t have much of a connection with Raine Nolan, but he had never seen her do anything bad.

Alexander said slowly, "No wonder Mom and Dad worry about your future if you blindly follow others without knowing right from wrong."

"I..." Robert looked confused.

Alexander called the Samoyed and walked into the room together, leaving him alone to contemplate life.

Damn, every time he talks to his brother about serious matters, he ends up questioning his life!

His brother must be toxic!

After taking a bath, Chloe Collins lay on the tatami mat by the window, reading a mystery comic book. But since she had something on her mind, she couldn’t really get into it.

Looking to the side, she could see the second-floor bedroom window of the neighboring building, with the lights on at the moment.

The layout of the bathroom she entered last night seemed strange to her.

She couldn’t put her finger on it at the time, but now, looking from here, it became clear.

Generally speaking, bathroom designs pay attention to feng shui and don’t face the doorway, as it would affect wealth. However, his bathroom was directly facing the bedroom door; although it wasn’t the main gate, most people, especially wealthy people, would be particularly wary.

Furthermore, most bathrooms with windows are designed to facilitate ventilation and brightness. But in that room, the bathroom was located in the middle of the wall that was close to the adjacent room.

It was too strange.

Upon closer inspection, the distance between the windows of the two rooms was greater than that of the other rooms, as if there was a thick wall in between.

There must be a catch.
