Chapter 922: Chapter 922: Rewarding Alexander Foster with a Big Chicken Leg!_1

Chapter 922

She was still mulling over that point.

Alexander Foster said, "As to your situation, very few people know about it. Even if the government intervenes, I believe it will only disrupt the plans of those people. This will also be helpful to us."

He looked at her, "I don’t want you to be left alone and burdened with everything."

Chloe Collins met his gaze and was silent for a long while.

After some time, she averted her eyes and said, "I need Dr. Hailey’s help in my laboratory. If the government’s people take her away, it would do me more harm than good."

"Okay, let her leave then." He agreed without hesitation.

"Oh, so you guys are here." A voice rang out.

Hawk Spirit and Sophia Spence arrived together and sat down beside them.

"Not doing anything proper, just eating?"

While saying this, the speaker grabbed a pair of disposable chopsticks and started eating the food on the table.

Alexander Foster asked indifferently, "Did you find the person yet?"

Sophia Spence grinned, "Right, I was just about to look for them. I’d like to join you."

Hawk Spirit cut in, "It’s inefficient to congregate. Since they’re here in the east, we’ll go to the west. If anything happens, we’ll contact via phone."

After finishing, Hawk Spirit dragged Sophia Spence and left.

Alexander Foster’s gaze narrowed slightly, "They are communicating."

Chloe Collins focused her gaze and, as expected, saw the same-sex couple muttering something to each other.

She took out the hearing aid and, after adjusting it for a while, focused on their conversation.

"I can hardly stand it anymore."

"You have bad breath, did you know that?"

"And you just ate durian, didn’t you? I feel like throwing up!"

"If it wasn’t for the mission, I’d never kiss you."

"What do you think I’m doing this for? This is my first time kissing a man in thirty years."

"Why are you getting so worked up, your drool got in my mouth!"

"Do you think the doctor will come out if we do this?"

"Let’s take a gamble. There’s so many people here, and no clues. Isn’t it like finding a needle in a haystack? We have to bait the snake out of its hole!"

"Shut up, don’t say anymore. When we get the ruby necklace, we’ll appear on all the advertising screens in the city. The doctor will see us, and as long as we show her beloved item in front of her, she’s sure to come out."

"I can hardly bear it anymore. Why don’t we just make a direct broadcast and let her know we have her cherished item. She will come looking for us."

"No, broadcasting can only be played in the field. If she sneaks inside, she might not hear it in the room. Only the award-winning advertisement will be broadcasted fully. Furthermore, our plan is already set. A sudden change by you will throw everyone else off."

"Alright, alright, I get it. Every word you say gets you closer to me."

"You think you’re not?"

Suddenly, both people tightly shut their mouths.

Chloe Collins’ confusion faded, the corners of her mouth lifted up slightly. She murmured, "So that’s how it is."

Alexander Foster heard this remark and was puzzled, "Hmm?"

A joyful Chloe Collins, with chicken leg in hand, held it to his mouth and said, "You’re right, this is your reward."

Despite feeling perplexed at the sight of the chicken leg up close, Alexander Foster couldn’t help but feel joyful.

"Why are you saying that out of the blue?"

Chloe Collins touched her earlobe and after thinking for a moment, vaguely said, "I overheard something."

"You heard something?"

"I have really good hearing," she stated.

A slight tension appeared on Alexander Foster’s handsome face, "How sharp, exactly?"

Chloe Collins cast a slow glance at him, "I can...hear everything from the next room."

(Good night.)
