Chapter 110: Sandalwood Soap
After work, .
Chloe told Sofia about the whole thing and alsoand asked her how much of a raise she had received.
"MFor me? Two thousand dollars," Sofia's eyes sparkled. "That's already a lot."
Chloe's face changed. Two thousand dollars.
She would have to skip many a lot steaks to make up for that amount each month.
"You shouldn't have come to me this afternoon. You should have gone to your husband. Who told you to say such heavy wordsall that at lunch?" Sofia said. "Let's go for a stroll on the pedestrian street and then you can go home. If you want to plead for forgiveness, you need to strike while the iron is hot."
Chloe agreed. She wasn't a fool to. She wouldn’t give up the opportunity for a raise just to prove a point.
The two of them took a stroll and arrived at a "local goods store," which was filled with many American cosmetics that they had never seen before. Chloe even spotted the "Roy Sandalwood Soap" that she had frequently used as a child. Before she went to college S, she had used this soap to bathe before she went to college. After washing herself, there would be a faint sandalwood scent that smelled really good. But after she went to college, she couldn't find it anymore. SThis time, she bought more than ten bars and packed them in her bag. It was, as if she had found a treasure.
In front of the pedestrian street, there was a section of retro buildings where martial lawa movie was being filmed. "Let's go and take a look, see if we can spot any celebrities.," Sofia became excited. "Haven’t you never seen a celebrity before?" Chloe wasn't interested. Just tThe thought of celebrities just made her angry. But Sofia still dragged her to the front of the crowd, where they saw extras dressed in historical costumes similar to historical periods.
"Ms. Torres is here," someone muttered. A chauffeur-driven car had been parked in the small alley next to them, and Paisley got out of the car. Chloe furrowed her brows slightly. Why did she run into her everywhere? Paisley seemed to have a lot of connections. She had just finished shooting "Dear Dr. Law" and had immediately joined the cast of this historical dramashow. When Paisley walked over and saw Chloe, she thought it was the perfect timeing for her to humiliate Chloe a bit.
"Miss Chloe.," Paisley, who was wearing a purple velvet dress, looked graceful, and like a beautiful woman from the past. "Miss Chloe'sYour cooking is actually very delicious. I was very hungry the day before yesterday, soand Donovan gave me his meal. He went hungry for the entire afternoon."
Hearing this, Chloe became angry when she heard that. Besides, she really wanted to know where Donovan and Paisley had gone the day before yesterday. "Is that so? My husband told me.," Chloe calmly said. "I’ will still cook for my husband tomorrow. As If you’re our guest, it's only natural for him to take care of the a guests." Paisley thought to herself, 'this girl still won't admit her sadness.' Paisley glanced at Chloe's canvas bag. The bag didn't have a zipper and was filled with many bars of soap, causing the bag to bulge, so anyone could see what was inside with just one glance.
"I still have a scene to film today, excuse me," Paisley left. She was still thinking,: 'I can’t believe Chloe even uses thatis kind of cheap soap that costs two or three dollars. She's really making embarrassing Donovan lose face.'
Once they arrived at the entrance of Hillside Villa, Chloe dropped her angry and unhappy expression, and put on a smile. After all, she wanted Donovan to give her a raise. "Back already?" Donovan sat on the sofa downstairs, reading a book while his grandpa slept. "Yes, I'm back, my husbandDonovan," Chloe said with a smile. "I'm going to the kitchen now to prepare the ingredients for tomorrow's bentolunchbox."
When Donovan saw Seeing Chloe's expression, Donovan he knew that the concept ofphrase "money can't buy happiness" was proven true for her. Initially, they had agreed notShe had said she wasn’t going to cook for lunch today, but now they she wasere starting to prepare a meal.
Getting As Chloe got the ingredients ready, Chloe she said to Donovan, "Honey, I'm going upstairs to take a shower. You should go to bed early too."
"Alright," Donovan replied absentmindedly, his eyes on his book.
Chloe went upstairs to take a shower. She used the new rose-sandalwood soap she had bought. After finishing her shower and putting on her fluffy pajamas, she went to bed.
Donovan was already sitting on the bed. He had originally planned to see how Chloe would continue her acting, but the a sudden smell caught his attention and made him snap back to reality.
"What's that smell?" he asked Chloe.
"What smell?" Chloe was drying her hair., "I don't smell anything."
"Come here.," Donovan beckoned Chloe to his side.
Chloe climbed onto the bed and Donovan embraced her. HThe fluffiness of her body felt very comfortable, and her scent was delightful.
His heart suddenly overflowed with emotion. TIt was this was scent that he had encountered six years ago. At that time, he couldn't see, he had only smelled this scent, and he never encountered it again on Paisley.
Donovan's emotions surged inside him. He closed his eyes and kissed Chloe's cheeks, her eyebrows, her and neck.
Chloe thought to herself:, ' Is he going crazy?'
His hands cupped Chloe's face as he began to passionately kiss her lips, which felt incredibly pleasurable.
He then pressed Chloe beneath him.
