In Chapter 100: Adding my wife's name to this property
Chloe stood there, stunned for a long time until Sofia called her, snapping her out of it.
"What did she talk to you about? Don't let her provoke you," Sofia reminded Chloe.
"She called me pathetic," Chloe replied absentmindedly.
"Come on, let's go buy clothes. Spend Mr. Blake's money. He keeps a mistress, he deserves it!" Sofia knew that Paisley's words were not worth listening to, but the house should belong to Donovan, so Paisley wouldn't be foolish enough to spread lies like that.
Chloe was angry too. The two of them got a taxi and went to a shopping mall. They didn't go to New East Group. They couldn't stand what Donovan had done, using his money in his own mall. Wouldn't they be just feeding into the pockets of this capitalist?
Chloe boldly sent Donovan a WhatsApp message, saying: [Give me money, I want to buy clothes!]
Donovan hadn't given Chloe money for a long time.
Receiving this WhatsApp message from Chloe, Donovan was somewhat surprised, but he still asked: [How much?]
[Twenty thousand dollars.]
Not long after, Chloe received a transfer of twenty thousand dollars.
She never expected Donovan to be so generous.
Unlike Sofia, who was angry about Donovan keeping a mistress, Chloe was even angrier that he never mentioned what happened in the past. He only knew that the corneas were not his own, but he didn't know about the person who donated them...
Chloe wanted to cry.
She bought a lot of clothes at the shopping mall, all of which were high-end and classy, with each article of clothing costing tens of thousands of dollars.
When she returned home, she was wearing a high-quality cashmere sweater, a short skirt, and a pair of tall sheepskin boots. She also carried many shopping bags filled with clothes.
Donovan sat on the couch downstairs reading a book.
Just by looking at the bags in Chloe's hands, Donovan knew they must have been expensive.
"So, you want me to wear a $2,000 shirt, but you buy such expensive clothes yourself?" Donovan casually said to Chloe, joking with her.
Chloe completely ignored him and went upstairs. She lay on the bed and started crying, feeling sorry for her dad. But Chloe knew that even if she felt sorry, she couldn't mention it to Donovan. Her dad forbade her to speak about it, and besides, Donovan minded.
Moreover, Donovan and Paisley's affair had existed long before Chloe even knew about it. Whether Chloe was there or not, it wouldn't affect their relationship. Chloe was just a tool, and once her purpose was fulfilled, she would be discarded.
"Who dared to bully me, someone from the Blake's family? Speak up." Donovan went upstairs, placed the book by the sofa on the coffee table, and had an expression of indifference.
Chloe knew she couldn't share her grievances tonight. If she did, it would make her look petty.
"No one." After speaking, Chloe wiped away her tears, sat on the bed, curled her knees, and pretended to read a book.
"Not going to tell me?" Donovan asked again, with a serious tone.
"Stop asking." Chloe's voice was hoarse from crying, and her speaking voice sounded somewhat muffled. She even raised her arm to wipe away her tears, looking quite pitiful.
Donovan picked up his phone and called Logan.
"What happened tonight? Why did my wife come back crying?" Donovan questioned.
"Crying... she cried?" Suddenly, Logan felt at a loss. "She didn't experience any grievances. Where would they even come from? Could it be that she encountered something on the way?"
Donovan glanced at Chloe, who had been pretending to read the book but hadn't turned a page for a long time, as she continued to sob.
"Where do you live?" Donovan thought for a moment and asked again.
"Me? I live in JN Community."
Donovan hung up the phone and understood everything. It was probably because she ran into Paisley. Paisley probably told Chloe that she was now living in Donovan's house and might have sarcastically made fun of Chloe's humble background. That's why Chloe wanted money to buy clothes.
Donovan sent a WhatsApp message to his assistant, asking him to take care of something the next morning and to have Paisley come as well.
The next day, Donovan took Chloe to the Housing Administration.
Chloe was originally going to change into her usual clothes, but Donovan said, "No need to change, just wear the clothes from last night."
Chloe could only do as Donovan said. Last night, she cried so much that her eyes were swollen. Donovan pulled her along, and she had no idea where he was taking her, but she didn't ask any questions.
The Housing Bureau.
Paisley and her mother Duan Lianyi were already there. Donovan's assistant had informed them that they were here to handle the property ownership certificate today.
They speculated that Donovan was going to transfer the house to them. Paisley also thought that once the house was in her name, there would be no way to say it was Donovan's house anymore. She didn't know what Chloe had said to Donovan last night that led to his decision today.
However, Paisley thought it was a good thing. The fact that Donovan was transferring the house to her meant that Chloe already cared about her a lot, and that was all she wanted.
Donovan had brought Chloe with him, and her eyes were swollen from crying.
Paisley felt triumphant, thinking that Chloe must really resent her now.
She noticed that Chloe was wearing different clothes than the plain ones she had worn last night. They were very fashionable and made her stand out. Paisley even fooled herself, thinking that if she didn't dress up a bit, how could she deceive Donovan?
"Add my wife's name to this house in Dongjiang," Donovan said to the staff at the Housing Bureau.
Chloe was puzzled, looking at Donovan with a questioning gaze, unable to figure out what was going on.
Paisley and Duan Lianyi were even more surprised. This was far beyond their expectations.
