Chapter 356: Chapter 356: She Doesn’t Need Me

Chapter 356

Her sharp words targeted Chloe Collins, making the others want to stop her. However, they had long been subdued by her usual harshness and didn’t dare to speak up.

Chloe Collins listened quietly. After she finished, Chloe raised her head, and a soft voice overflowed from her throat, "Your boss is outside and can’t hear what you’re saying in here. If you don’t accept me, let him fire me. Otherwise, get out and don’t hinder my work."

Sienna McCarty was taken aback, not expecting to be rebutted by a young girl like that!

Several other researchers weighed their options and decided to continue listening to Chloe’s explanation.

After all, she was the one personally brought in by the President, and her skills were indeed remarkable, winning their hearts with her performance.

Suddenly, all the researchers gathered around Chloe, ignoring Sienna.

Sienna suppressed her anger and didn’t say anything else.

She wasn’t stupid. She still wasn’t sure about the relationship between Chloe and Alexander Foster and couldn’t make a rash move.

She glanced at the one-way mirror, unable to see Alexander outside, and felt quite uneasy.

She had spoken too passionately earlier, not knowing if he had heard her or not.

She couldn’t stand listening to a girl much younger than herself lecture, so she left the room directly.

Fortunately, Alexander was still in his original position, where he couldn’t hear the voices inside the room.

She walked over to him.

After hesitating for a moment, she said, "Mr. Foster, aren’t you going inside?"

Alexander’s expression was indifferent, "She doesn’t need me."

Sienna paused.

Was it that girl who asked him to wait outside?

Sienna shook her head vigorously, thinking it was impossible!

An hour and a half later, Chloe Collins finally came out of the laboratory.

During that time, Alexander never left the place, canceling all his appointments.

Sienna finally realized that the relationship between the two of them was unusual, and she was very unwilling to accept it.

At this point, Chloe had said everything she wanted to say, and she had done everything she could. She completed her task and came out.

Alexander walked over to her.

She said, "I’ve said everything I had to say, and the rest will be up to you in your meeting to decide which plan to use."

Alexander’s mouth curled into a smile, "Alright."

"Hungry? Let’s grab something to eat?"

Chloe Collins touched her empty stomach and said, "I can go on my own. The place I want to eat is quite far from here."

She figured Alexander had work to do and didn’t necessarily have to eat together.

Alexander chose to ignore her previous statement and softly asked, "Which restaurant?"

"Hidden Nooks."

"It’s not far, let’s go together."

Chloe frowned, "It’s half an hour’s drive from here. Isn’t that far?"

Alexander picked up her backpack and hung it on his arm, saying, "For good food, it’s worth the trip."

It was rare for Chloe to hear such words from him, as he had never had much desire for food.

When they were in the temple before, he had practically given her all the food his family sent over.

"Alright," she said.

Alexander gave Sienna a few instructions and then went downstairs with Chloe.

During the conversation between the two of them, Sienna had heard every word, completely revising her understanding of Alexander.

As far as she knew, Alexander would never waste time on "eating" such a trivial matter. Moreover, it was at such a busy time, spending half an hour in the car!

It was clear that it wasn’t for the sake of eating, but for...

Her face darkened, very dissatisfied.

-

Hidden Nooks was a popular new food brand that had taken off last year. It quickly gained a high reputation within a few months, with great business every day. Unfortunately, there were only two branches in the entire city, both very far from the Affiliated High School, the Fosters’ place, and Southvale’s Riverside. That’s why she rarely had the chance to eat there.
