Chapter 350: Chapter 350: I am Her Cousin

Chapter 350

She only told him that she would visit his company’s Research and Development Department laboratory once, and he replied with three sentences.

She only replied with one sentence.

[Chloe: No need to pick me up, I’ll find time to go by myself.]

After putting down her phone, Robert was still muttering, guessing who Alexander’s benefactor was.

After thinking for a while, he mentioned a foreigner’s name.

"Ginny Winslet? No... She hasn’t resigned, then who is it..."

Chloe slightly raised the corner of her lips, glanced at him, and didn’t say anything.

When they arrived at the school, Chloe could clearly feel that everyone’s gaze at her carried a golden filter.

The previous disdainful and contemptuous looks were all gone.

Walking on the road, out of ten people, all ten greeted her.

Robert was already used to this phenomenon and didn’t really like the feeling.

He hated being approached by people with an ulterior motive.

Turning to look at Chloe beside him, she didn’t seem to feel anything either. She was still the same as before, with a face that said "don’t bother me, I’m the most beautiful." Surprisingly, this attitude was very harmonious on her, not annoying, but rather a little cute.

After going upstairs, Robert entered the classroom, and Chloe went to the teacher’s office to ask for a leave for Layla Lowell on behalf of Keith Grant.

Keith’s gaze at her also changed a little, but it was not as obvious as other people’s.

Hearing the request for leave, he asked, "Injured? How did she get injured? Why are you helping her ask for leave? What about her family?"

Chloe simply said, "Her family is busy."

Keith was half-believing, half-doubting.

"Then have her family call me."

"This is her hospital record." Chloe showed him the doctor’s certificate.

Based on their usual habit of skipping classes at will, and considering Layla’s previous records of violating school rules, Keith chose not to believe it.

What if the certificate was fake?

After all, it wouldn’t be difficult for Chloe Collins to get a fake certificate with her status.

"If you’re afraid to call, I’ll do it. I remember, her mother’s number is here."

"I’ll make the call." Chloe said directly.

Keith hadn’t been in charge of this class for long and didn’t know about Layla’s family situation.

Layla’s parents couldn’t manage her anymore, and the so-called "mother" should be her stepmother.

At the moment, her stepmother hated her to the bone, and Layla’s hospitalization was related to this stepmother.

She dialed a number, and in a short while, the call went through.

"Layla’s teacher wants to talk to you."

After saying that, she handed the phone to Keith.

Keith took the phone suspiciously and said, "Hello, this is the school. Why hasn’t Layla come to school today?"

At this moment, Charles, who was in the car, was stunned for a moment.

He was still driving, paying attention to the road while listening to the phone call.

Chloe’s words had already confused him, and then the teacher came up right after.

What was Layla’s teacher calling him for?

"Um, she..."

"Who are you? Your voice is so young, are you Layla’s father?"

For the first time, Charles felt that he was at a loss for words. After hesitating for a few seconds, he still couldn’t say a complete sentence.

"You..."

"I’m her cousin. She’s been injured and hospitalized these two days and can’t go to school." He quickly sorted out his thoughts.

"Cousin? That’s not a proper guardian. Where are her parents?" Keith doubted again.

Charles was helpless and said, "Well, teacher, I’m on my way to the hospital to see her now. I’ll take some pictures for you later."

Keith hesitated, "Why can’t her parents talk to me directly? What are you guys up to?"

"Her parents can’t talk to you directly." Charles said.

"Why?"
