Her daughter was actually telling a humorous joke with a straight face.
This was at Songshan Hospital, where Chloe went to get Yvette’s discharge paperwork.
Upon leaving, she ran into Oliver Gordon standing there.
Oliver’s face stiffened when he suddenly saw Chloe.
Chloe walked past him, grabbed the paperwork from the doctor without giving him a glance, and left.
Oliver quickly said a few words to the doctor, then turned and chased after her.
“Chloe.”
He blocked her path when she didn’t stop.
Oliver asked, “Are you avoiding me?”
Chloe looked at him indifferently, holding the paperwork.
There was no emotion in her eyes.
This indifference made Oliver feel suffocated for an instant.
“About last time, I admit I was wrong.”
Chloe nodded and walked around him to leave.
Oliver couldn’t bear to plead for her forgiveness again, so that was as far as his apology would go.
But Chloe didn’t seem to accept it.
He didn’t mean to do it; he just wanted to see if she really cheated.
“Oliver,” Doctor Gordon knew his son was coming for a check-up today and took the time to accompany him.
After searching for his son and not finding him, he saw Oliver talking to the girl named Chloe from afar.
“Dad.”
“Isn’t she the girl who used to cling to you all the time?”
“Yes.”
Oliver was a little dazed upon hearing this.
He vaguely remembered that Chloe had followed him home before.
At school, she always tried to find chances to get closer to him.
But now…
Chloe was still Chloe, but her gaze no longer fell upon him.

4th floor of the hospital.
Wilbert Foster and Yvonne Sullivan had woken up and ran into Yvette coming out.
“Mom’s on the 7th floor, are you going to avoid her now that you’re in the hospital?”
“How sad would it be if Mom knew.”
The two’s words carried a somewhat oppressive tone.
Yvette said, “I wanted to check on Mom’s condition, but I can’t help with elder brother and sister-in-law’s issue.
Even if I ask Mom to step in, there’s nothing I can do.”
Wilbert’s face darkened, “Never mind that for now, let’s go.”
Chloe walked over and glanced at both of them.
Wilbert was somewhat uncomfortable being seen by Chloe like this.
Recently, he always felt that Chloe had become somewhat strange.
“Chloe’s here too, let’s go.”
“Chloe, wait here for Mom.
She’ll be down soon,” Yvette didn’t want Chloe to go up and face Old Madam’s anger.
Chloe didn’t say anything and followed them onto the elevator.
“Chloe is also Mom’s granddaughter.
What’s wrong with her going upstairs to visit?” Yvonne snapped.
With Chloe there, they’d have a bargaining chip.
Using Chloe as an excuse, they weren’t afraid Yvette wouldn’t cooperate.
The couple had this mindset and were more willing to involve Chloe.
On the 7th floor.
Before entering the ward, they heard a barrage of angry cursing from inside.
Yvette immediately frowned.
As expected, having someone else come hadn’t helped.
Shannon Perry, who wasn’t badly injured, was taking care of Old Madam in the ward and getting scolded.
There, even David Foster got scolded too.
Following the incident last night, David had brought his children to the hospital in the morning.
Fred Foster had already left to find a place to rest.
He had slept uncomfortably in the hospital’s rented bed last night.
As Chloe and the others entered, Old Madam’s eyes swept over them.
Seeing Yvette, her gaze was as if she wanted to eat her alive.
“You finally show up.
You must be hoping that I’ll die.
Your elder and second sister-in-law have been serving me here for half a month, but there’s been no sign of you.
Where did you go to die?”
Yvette was used to being scolded, so she didn’t bother to listen.
She entered and said, “As you know, I need to take care of Chloe.”
People from the two beds next door were watching.
“Mom, the debt collectors came again.
Could you please talk to Yvette and let her lend us several million to pay off our debts first?
Now that she lives in a nice villa, eats well, and wears nice clothes, she no longer cares about our family.”
Yvonne brought up the matter immediately.
Old Madam’s disgusted gaze moved away from Chloe and landed on Yvette, becoming even sharper.
“It’s just several million.
What’s wrong with you taking it out and giving it to your elder brother to cover his debts?
If the Stephens Family doesn’t provide the money, sell the villa you’re living in.
He is your elder brother; are you going to watch your elder brother get chased and hacked?
Is this what you call family?
Where are we supposed to live in the future?”
“Who’s responsible for this family falling apart?
I brought back enough for the Foster Family.
When Chloe and I were in the Stephens Family, fighting for our lives, the Foster Family still wanted to suck my blood.
I don’t have such family members.”
