Chapter 548: Chapter 548: Alexander Foster is about to discover her secret

Chapter 548

With that sentence, she had actually revealed a piece of information—Chloe Collins really needed his help.

Alexander Foster had already anticipated this, so it was no surprise.

He met with Albert Green today only to find out what Chloe was looking for.

Albert looked at him seriously, not even touching the food in front of him.

Alex spoke calmly, only asking, "What is your relationship with Chlo-Chlo?"

Albert’s gaze slowly withdrew, pondering the meaning of his words.

Suddenly, he smiled, "You don’t have to worry about my relationship with this child. I treat her like my own child, and all I hope for is that she can have a good life. Apart from that, I have no other desires."

Alex: "I need a direct answer."

Albert paused.

Staring into Alex’s eyes, he was somewhat uneasy.

He had a feeling that Alex already knew part of the truth, but was unsure how much he had grasped.

The tension made his mouth dry, and he subconsciously picked up his tea and took a big sip.

He was already an old man, rarely showing such anxiousness in front of younger people.

Alex did not hurry him or pressure him.

Instead, he pushed a plate of delicate breakfast pastries in front of him, "Try this signature dish. Take your time to answer, no need to rush or be nervous."

Although his voice sounded soothing, it gave Albert a sense of being at his mercy.

It was also like a sheep that had already walked into a trap, feeling trapped with no way out, the anxiety burning his heart.

After a while, thinking of Chloe, considering the big picture, he gradually calmed down.

"Chlo-Chlo’s mother and I were friends. I received a lot of help from her mother in the past, so I always wanted to repay her kindness. Now that she’s gone and left this child behind, I naturally want to help take care of her."

Alex let out a light "Oh," and said, "So, it’s a relationship of gratitude."

Albert nodded, constantly recalling if any part of his previous words had revealed too much.

At this moment, Alex’s voice came, "Not just a relationship of gratitude, but also a relationship of former colleagues."

Albert’s head was already a mess at this point, but hearing this, he nodded unconsciously.

Suddenly, he hesitated.

"Uh, this, actually, it’s just that we worked together at the same hospital."

"BRD-2, you should be familiar with it."Alex’s mouth curved into a faint smile, and his gentle eyes wrapped around a sharp edge.

Albert’s hot tea in his hand suddenly spilled out, scalding the back of his hand!

That matter was only known to their generation, how could...

Just as he didn’t know what to say, Alex suddenly showed him a photo.

"You should have seen this chimpanzee before."

Albert took a look, and was startled again!

It was a photo of the test subjects from back then!

"Mr. Foster, how did you know about this?" Albert was solemn.

Alex lowered his eyes, his voice soft and deep, "I just found out recently, it’s been difficult."

Albert’s heart thumped, "Chlo-Chlo must have told you, right? Has that child finally spoken up?"

Alex looked him in the eye but said nothing.

Albert slowly smiled, "I’ve advised her to be honest with you before, but she refused then, saying she didn’t want to owe you. I know her character, she didn’t want the psychological burden which is why she kept silent. Now that she’s finally willing to speak, it means she’s ready to accept you."

Alex’s face was indifferent, and he took a sip of coffee without a word.

Albert sighed, "This child has such a difficult fate. At such a young age, she’s trapped by this drug, and at any moment could follow in her mother’s footsteps. I’m really worried!"

Alex’s eyes suddenly shook, and he looked at him in astonishment.
