"Chapter 567
Wanda Wesley deftly cooked, and in no ti a dish of ho-cooked food was ready.
The dish was decorated with vegetables like carrots, and a peacock carved from the carrots gave Chloe Collins a familiar feeling.
Perhaps, Wanda really worked at Hidden Nooks.
She didn’t say it out loud, after all, it was soone else’s privacy.
Evelyn Thompson and Robert Foster clapped quietly and flattered: ""Amazing!""
Wanda shyly lowered her head and smiled.
""You guys taste it. If it’s too strong or too light, I’ll adjust the flavor of these two dishes later.""
Wanda handed them the chopsticks and let them taste it.
Robert Foster, having a naïve mindset, took a bite and his face changed: ""Hmm! That’s right! This is the flavor! It’s exactly the sa as the flavor of gold from Hidden Nooks!""
Evelyn Thompson: ""What?""
Chloe saw Wanda’s face change slightly.
Then, Wanda said, ""Yes...I went there to learn on purpose...""
At this point, Chloe noticed her eyes suddenly looking towards Alexander Foster for a brief second before returning to normal.
""I went there to study on purpose!"" She said.
Robert Foster: ""Oh, I see.""
Chloe glanced at Alex, not understanding why Wanda had looked at him earlier.
After dinner.
Evelyn asked Robert to send Wanda ho, but the driver was a professional driver from their family.
About fifteen minutes later, Robert ca back.
He said as soon as he entered, ""I didn’t realize Wanda’s new ho is so close to our house, just a few minutes’ drive away.""
""Where exactly?"" Evelyn asked.
Robert pointed in a direction: ""The next neighborhood, southeast.""
""That’s so close,"" Evelyn smiled, ""we should invite her over more often.""
Robert humd in agreent, not thinking too much about it.
Looking around and seeing no one else nearby, he leaned close to Evelyn and said playfully, ""Mom, the final exam starts tomorrow, and if I do well this ti, what gift do you plan to give ?""
Evelyn thought for a mont and asked, ""What gift do you want?""
Robert Foster smiled: ""The thing I ntioned to you last ti.""
Evelyn rolled her eyes, ""You an going on a show?""
""Yes, go on with my goddess, Shelby Hamilton.""
""How long will you be away?""
""At least three days, or the entire winter break if possible!""
Evelyn pondered for a few seconds before relenting, ""If you can make it to the top ten in your class for the final exam, it’s settled.""
Robert Foster confidently declared, ""It’s a deal, then!""

Late at night, Chloe was by the window on the phone.
On the other end, Camille’s voice was coquettish, acting cute towards a girl several years younger.
""Darling, co on, huh? We’re all waiting for you. Listen, everyone is calling for you.""
The mont her words fell, a group of people’s shouting voices ca through the phone.
""The old man said that if you don’t show up this ti, he’ll personally go to Grearon to find you."" Camille’s voice turned serious.
Chloe caught a snowflake and softly said, ""I’ll think about it.""
After ending this call, she received another one.
This ti, it was from Rosalind Taylor’s number.
She looked at the number for two seconds before answering.
But the voice that ca through wasn’t Rosalind’s.
""Chloe? It’s your Aunt.""
Chloe leaned against the wall and asked indifferently, ""What’s up?""
""What’s up? You didn’t even tell us when you finished your exams, and by the way, why did you give your chance to go on television to soone else?""
