Chapter 498: Chapter 498: Someone has an eye on Robert Foster?
Chapter 498
Wanda Wesley’s eyes are actually quite big and full of spirit.
However, she habitually looks down and avoids direct eye contact, so some people mistakenly think her eyes are small.
At this moment, she holds chopsticks in her hand, gazing unblinkingly at Robert Foster’s back, a smile curling up the corner of her mouth.
And yet, Robert Foster is the one staring at her.
Chloe Collins pauses momentarily, then continues eating.
Robert Foster is still fixated on her.
"I finally understand why you said you’d only look up to those richer than you, sister. It turns out you’re actually quite wealthy."
Layla Lowell bursts into laughter.
"Such a sycophant, even calling her sister," she coos sarcastically.
Robert slides a chicken leg into Chloe’s bowl.
"What do you know? She’s actually a year older than me, so it’s rightful for me to call her sister, right, sis?"
Chloe hands back the chicken leg with a disclaimer, "Don’t be too close to me, I’m a scaredy-cat. I fear getting attacked"
Layla gets it instantly, "So, are you saying that someone has an eye for Robert?"
Robert suddenly looks up, "Who?"
"Which girl has such good taste?"
Barely have the words left her lips when she spots something. She arches an eyebrow and indicates a direction: "Ten o’clock."
Robert glances over.
Upon seeing a table full of excited girls, the spark in his eyes dies abruptly.
"Oh, them," he dismisses.
Layla probes further, "From your tone, you seem disappointed. What, do you think they’re not pretty enough?"
Robert shrugs, "No, not that, if you’re talking about this kind of liking, then never mind. I receive love letters every week, but, they don’t really like me."
Chloe observes him quietly, realizing that he’s not that dumb after all.
"Can you tell the difference?" she inquires.
Robert taking a bite of his dish, says "Of course, I can distinguish. They like either my looks or my family’s wealth, both of which are meaningless. "
Layla cracks up again.
"Your face? Hey, are you narcissistic?"
Chloe interjects, "Don’t be surprised. This kind of narcissism is hereditary."
Robert retorts, "Am I not handsome? You two have too high standards, I ranked in the schools’ popular guy polls, you know?"
Layla and Chloe exchange amused smiles.
Robert grabs his phone, scrutinizes his face left and right, and exclaims, "The more I look, the more I am satisfied. Don’t you think it’s a great loss for the film industry if I don’t get into acting?"
"Chlo-Chlo, I just asked Mr. Carrington about last night. You know what he said?"
Chloe, "Hmm?"
Robert, "...Aren’t you guys planning to pay me any attention?"
Ignoring him, Layla continues, "He said, I went to find him myself."
She spreads her arms in confusion, "But I don’t remember doing that. I feel like someone carried me there. I even heard the sound of climbing stairs."
Chloe, "Do you suspect he’s lying to you?"
Layla seems troubled, "But why would he lie?"
Chloe, "I don’t know."
Robert, "What are you guys talking about?"
Layla and Chloe simultaneously handed him an orange, suggesting he keep quiet.
And then, they continue discussing.
Robert, "..."

Nearing afternoon dismissal, Chloe receives a message from Alexander Foster.
[Alexander: I’m at the entrance.]
Attached is a photo of the school entrance.
Suddenly, Theodore’s words flash across Chloe’s mind along with the detailed image of Alexander’s lips.
She abruptly closes her eyes and forgets about that site.
[We’ll be out soon.]
After the school bell rings, the students leave the campus one after another.
Robert Foster, holding a gift in his hand, occasionally lowers his gaze to glance at it.
