Chapter 438: Chapter 438: Chloe Collins might disappoint you guys

Chapter 438

In the afternoon between three and four o’clock, the Foster family received four distinguished guests, who were personally welcomed by the Master and his daughter-in-law, Evelyn Thompson.

The visitors were the Chairman and his wife from the Carson Enterprise of Corynthia, along with their son and daughter-in-law.

They came here not to see the Master, but rather aimed directly at Chloe Collins.

Upon hearing their purpose, the Master was surprised, "You mean, Chloe?"

Madam Carson said, "We heard that this child is a genius when it comes to perfume blending and knows everything about perfumes. We hope to meet her."

The Master was puzzled, "Not to mention whether she knows how to make perfume, what does treating your son have to do with perfume?"

"Oh, it’s like this, the poison is actually a bottle of perfume. On that day, my son happened to have a wound on his body. Someone sprayed this perfume on him suddenly, and the liquid attached to the wound and seeped into his flesh, slowly poisoning him."

Mr. Miller nodded and slowly said, "Yes, the doctor said that we must know what the components of the poison are before proceeding with the treatment. They have tried many methods but cannot be 100% certain. We heard that Chloe Collins is very knowledgeable about perfumes, so we have to ask this child for help with analyzing the components of the fragrance. We have brought the clothes that were worn on the day of poisoning."

Upon hearing this, Sophia Ford couldn’t help but exclaim, "Wow, so much time has elapsed, and the scent has faded. How can she analyze it without the object itself? You guys need to find that bottle of perfume."

As soon as she finished speaking, Gilbert’s son said, "We are sending people to search for it, but at the moment, there are no clues."

"Yes, we are searching for the person who created this bottle of perfume, but my son’s injury cannot wait. We must know the components of the poison as soon as possible," Madam Carson said.

Cutting in, Sophia Ford replied, "Then I’m afraid there’s nothing we can do."

The Master raised a hand, signaling her not to speak.

He then turned to ask Mr. Carson, "Calling Chloe to see if there’s a solution is no problem. However, you mentioned earlier that not even her sister was able to solve the problem. Since Chloe’s talent is not as great as her sister’s, I’m afraid she may not live up to your expectations."

The Master remembered Tristan Collins saying that Chloe couldn’t make perfume.

However, Mr. Carson said, "That’s not true. Yesterday morning, when we visited Mr. Collins, his youngest daughter did not agree to take a look at the problem. She simply dismissed the idea as impossible. Thus, I think..."

Unable to hold her tongue, Sophia Ford interjected again, "Well, there’s still no hope, Chloe’s perfume-making skill is just at a beginner level. It’d be better to send it to a specialized institution for testing. Unfortunately, you only have these clothes left. I think the hope is slim."

Hearing that, Gilbert’s son replied, "Sir, can you allow us to meet her, please?"

The Master spoke kindly, "Seeing her is certainly not a problem. She will be back from school shortly. However, don’t expect too much."

Evelyn Thompson said with a smile, "I’ll give my son a call and have him pick up Chloe on the way since it’s on the way!"

After making the call, the Master asked Evelyn to show Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert around while he spoke with the Chairman about business matters.

Evelyn was more than happy to do so.

As she introduced their home’s landscape to the young and beautiful couple, she observed their interactions.

The two held hands tightly, and in the fleeting moment their eyes met, they only saw each other.

Suddenly, she remembered seeing the face of Gilbert’s son on television. It belonged to the famous actress, Leanne Bright.

She had even watched a TV show starring her not long ago.

Without the heavy makeup, the real person looked even more beautiful than on television.
