Chapter 449

Raine Nolan seemed to have expected this question and replied without hesitation, "Because I was curious."

"Curious?"

"Yes." She looked at everyone. "I came over that day to find Alexander, but as I reached the doorway, I saw the osmanthus tree in the courtyard. I had just read a book about them, so I was interested and wanted to take a look. Unexpectedly, right after approaching it, Victor chased me out, and then he wouldn’t leave me alone."

This explanation didn’t seem to have any flaws.

Robert Foster asked, "What did you need my brother for?"

Raine Nolan suddenly lowered her head, embarrassed, "Nothing much, just some private matters..."

Evelyn Thompson’s eyes narrowed, thinking about something.

Tristan Collins laughed, "Children grow up and have their own secrets. What do you think, Brother Ting, if our two families become in-laws?"

William Foster just smiled courteously.

Evelyn Thompson seized the opportunity, "In-laws? I like little Chlo-Chlo very much. If she is willing, I’ll arrange an even more grand ceremony than a bridal sedan to welcome her into our family, as our daughter-in-law."

With this statement, Raine Nolan couldn’t help but feel awkward.

Tristan Collins’ laughter also lost its sincerity.

William Foster stood up and invited them to sit down for dinner, barely managing to avoid the awkward atmosphere.

Evelyn Thompson was both puzzled and resentful. Why did Tristan Collins become so unwilling whenever Chlo-Chlo was mentioned?

If it weren’t for the friendship between their families, she really wanted to ask him what he was thinking.

At this point, Raine Nolan’s fear subsided a little, but the other half remained, hanging on Brandon Spence’s side.

Now, as long as he didn’t say anything, she would be fine.

Robert Foster was the last to get up. He adjusted his black-framed glasses, his gaze fixed on Raine Nolan.

He picked up his phone and sent Chloe Collins a message.

[You saw it, right? Just as you said, she came with an injury.]

These glasses were Chloe Collins’ "high-tech" invention, which he had also used once before.

This time, Chloe Collins gave them to him again, telling him to wear them all night.

Soon, Chloe Collins sent a reply -

[Chlo: Is the tree behind my room an osmanthus tree?]

[Yes, both of them are.]

[Chlo: Later, take Victor with you to my room, search under my bed and cabinet, and check any place where items can be hidden. Look for anything unusual, especially perfume. You don’t need to worry about the suitcase under the bed. Remember to wear gloves.]

[No problem.]

[But is her injury real or fake?]

Robert Foster squinted his eyes, no matter how he looked, Raine Nolan’s limp seemed suspicious.

[Chlo: We’ll know soon.]

Soon?

Robert Foster was doubtful.

[Have you already made plans?]

Just a few seconds after sending this message, the butler came in and said to his parents, "Sir, Madam, the doctor the Young Master called for is here."

"Doctor?" Everyone at the table was stunned.

Raine Nolan and Rosalind Taylor exchanged glances, their pupils trembling.

Robert Foster immediately understood that this was Chloe Collins’ arrangement and quickly started acting, walking over to greet the young doctor.

He glanced at the nameplate on the doctor’s chest, the words ’Horace Puckett’ imprinted into his brain.

"Dr. Puckett, you’re here."

Dr. Puckett smiled, "Young Master Cain, where is the patient?"

"Follow me."
