Chapter 1044
But her mother had told her that Tristan Collins was not aware of this affair. Therefore, soone must have told him.
Perhaps it was Rosalind Taylor!
Rosalind Taylor...
Suddenly, she rembered the ti Rosalind Taylor had a private discussion with Ms. Pearce. It was clear that they had so secret, a secret even Tristan Collins wasn’t privy to.
Could it be this secret?
Did Ms. Pearce also know about her health?
Her silent contemplation was mistaken by the Master as consent.
Guilt shown in the Master’s eyes, "Child, rest assured, we will support whatever decision you make. But I beg you not to disclose this matter to Alex. If he finds out that his aunt caused the death of his beloved’s mother, he will be devastated. He has always been close to his aunt. He is not at fault in this matter. So, I hope..."
"Grandpa," Chloe Collins interrupting him said lightly, "Don’t worry, it’s not because of that. I will not carry on the grudges of the past generation to this one. I know who to bla and won’t get innocent people involved."
The Master heaved a sigh of relief and smiled, "Then... thank you."
Chloe tapped her fingers on the table and suddenly asked, "Grandpa, how much do you know about that dicine?"
The ease disappeared from the Master’s eyes. He lowered his gaze and remained silent for a long ti, sighing one breath out.
"I’ve said it before, it’s not feasible. But they wouldn’t listen and insisted on continuing. Child, you must have suffered a lot."
"Your body..."
"I will find a way to cure myself, so you don’t need to worry about that."
The Master shook his head, "It’s difficult. I didn’t an to pour cold water on you, but once you’ve taken this dicine, this is your life. You just ntioned that it isn’t Alex’s aunt that’s causing you to reject him, is it because of this? I can see that you have feelings for him."
He looked at Chloe and repeated, "Child, if all of us object to you two being together, will you accept that?"
Chloe gave a faint smile, "The only person who can prevent us from being together is him."
The Master showed a curious smile, "To my knowledge, he’s always been willing."
Chloe shook her head, "No, he hasn’t found his answer yet."
The Master slightly frowned and smiled helplessly, "The things you youngsters say, I’m understanding them less and less. However, what if his parents are against your relationship? No parent would wish their child to be in pain. If your physical condition is like your mother’s, being always in danger, then Alex would be worrying all day. As his parents, it’s likely that they won’t agree to your relationship."
She tapped her fingers on the table. As she lifted her gaze, her eyes resembled an authoritative deity, firm and sacred, "If he agrees, even if the whole world tries to stop , it won’t work."
At this mont, a trace of fear rose in the Master’s heart.
This young lady, seed a bit unfamiliar, a bit dangerous?
Her strong and stubborn attitude let him vaguely sense sothing morbid, an unhealthy kind of obsessiveness.
The Master realized sothing.
His heart skipped a beat.
"Young lady, please don’t do anything impulsive."
Chloe smiled faintly, "Grandpa, what are you afraid of?"
The Master asked, "Does he know about this?"
"He does."
"Ah, your father ca here to persuade to prevent you two from being together. This puts in a difficult position. I’m very fond of Alex but I don’t want him to bear the pain of constant worry at such a young age."
