Chapter 358

Seeing that the two were about to fight, the man hurriedly said, "I’ll buy both, both! I’ll buy the Tree Essence Perfume for both of you, okay? I heard that there’s a series for girlfriends and one for friends. I’ll buy both the perfumes and buy the best Redolence Tree Essence Perfume for you both, alright?!"

Under this influence, customers nearby were all discussing what Tree Essence Perfume was.

Chloe Collins looked up at Alexander Foster, "Your eldest brother is quick on his feet. The advertising is all set up, and these three actors are not bad at all."

The three brothers would release their perfumes under the Redolence brand, but in different series, with their victory mostly determined by sales within a month.

The press conference hadn’t even started, and the internal news couldn’t possibly spread so quickly. These people were obviously here to advertise beforehand.

Alexander naturally noticed this, but remained expressionless and said, "Let’s go for a meal."

Both of them had calm personalities, and this matter didn’t affect them one bit.

Chloe ordered quite a few dishes, both light and heavy-tasting.

Even though he didn’t say anything, after living with the Fosters for so long, she had a feeling that he preferred lighter flavors.

The dishes quickly arrived, and she introduced all the ones she liked.

Alex just listened to her talk, with a smile at the corner of his mouth, not saying a word.

A few minutes later, Chloe finally realized she had been talking too much, and said, "Let’s eat; it’s all delicious."

"Don’t feel constrained; I like to hear you talk," he said.

When you like someone, even just glancing at them from afar, and not doing anything else can give you immense satisfaction.

Moreover, he could now listen to her speak, and she spoke so much at once.

The feast before him paled in comparison to the pleasure of listening to her.

In the past, hearing these words, Chloe might have wanted to tease him a bit. But now, she was enveloped by a subtle and warm feeling, unable to speak.

She could only lower her head and eat.

The delicious food helped her quickly forget about that feeling, immersing herself in the meal.

Alex didn’t eat much, instead focusing on serving her more food.

Seeing her cheeks bulging with food, he smiled and asked, "Were you starved when you were little?"

He asked in a joking tone, but the next second, he saw her nod her head.

She didn’t give any explanation. There wasn’t any particular emotion when she nodded either.

However, Alex’s heart clenched at her response, and his relaxed demeanor became somewhat gloomy.

He thought back to the conversation he had overheard through the listening device the other day.

He couldn’t imagine what it would feel like to be suddenly disliked by one’s father for no reason and thrown into the mountains to live with a group of monks in a temple.

He would probably never be able to empathize.

A six-year-old girl, faced with a strange environment, would feel frightened and insecure but have no way to escape. In the end, she was forced to adapt and compromise.

There were many rules in the temple, such as not eating meat. She loved eating so much that she couldn’t help but go hunting, and when caught, she would be punished. That’s why she could never eat enough and developed such a deep love for meat.

The more he thought about it, the darker his eyes seemed, and his finger bones became more pronounced.

"What are you thinking about?"

Chloe’s voice brought him back to reality.

From her perspective, the man’s aura had changed suddenly. Just a moment ago, he was as warm as sunshine, but now he exuded an icy, intimidating chill that threatened to freeze the dishes on the table.

Only when she spoke up did the frosty peaks in his eyes recede, returning to how he looked just minutes ago.

He placed a big piece of meat in her bowl, saying, "Eat more."

Chloe had meat still chewing in her cheeks, so she put that big piece back into his bowl: "This one is too fatty."

Alexander heard this, glanced at the plate of meat, then picked out a piece that was a mix of fat and lean for her.

Subsequently, he quietly dealt with the big fat piece of meat in his own bowl.
