This glanceIt was no big deal, Paisley had commented on Donovan's Momentspost, posting a hungry face and writing ote a sentencecomment: [Delicious].
The smile on Chloe's face disappeared instantly, feeling as she felt uncertain.
She knew that every word Paisley said had a deeper meaning. S, she didn't know what she was up to.
Donovan replied to her: ["Chloe made it.]"
Hardly anyone in the company had followed Paisley's WhatsApp number, so, regular people couldn't see thatis comment. T, they only saw Donovan showing off his affections and Chloe's comments.
Chloe calmed down her anger and replied to Paisley: [If you want to eat, you can come to my place, I'll make it for you.]
Chloe felt that her response was both gracious and displayed her position as the host.
Paisley replied to Donovan: [Donovan, Chloe invited me to your place, do you agree to that?]
Donovan replied: [Come over.]
Chloe suppressed her anger and asked: [How about tThis weekend at noon?]
Paisley: [Okay.]
Paisley's unexpected reply ruined Chloe's good mood.
After getting in Donovan's car in the afternoon, .
Donovan asked Chloe, "Do you have Paisley's WhatsApp number? How did you add her?"
"She added me when you went to Pearl Peak City last time," Chloe wanted to say that Paisley wanted to see the proof of her miscarriage, but she thought better of it and decided not to badmouth his Donovan’s ex-girlfriend, who was also an unforgettable ex-lover, in front of himDonovan.
"Why did she contact you?" Donovan persisted.
"She told me her dad saved your life," Chloe said casually, leaving out the rest.
Donovan furrowed his brow slightly and didn't say anything further.
After dinner, Chloe showered with Roy Sandalwood Ssoap.
Her father This kind ofhad brought home that soap was brought home by her father for the first time when she was a child. Chloe thought it smelled good, so she had been using it all along. However,But later on, foreign brands flooded the market, and thatis kind of soap gradually became less common.
Moreover, Chloe also noticed that Donovan seemed to be getting more and more gentle with her in bed.
After turning off the lights, they melted into each other, and every time Chloe's face would flush pink every time.
Donovan would whisper in Chloe's ear, asking softly asking, "Do you like it?"
Chloe's lips were now a deep red, giving her the illusion that she was "the person he deeply loved."
Chloe sincerely said, "I really like it."
Because of thatis moisture, Chloe became even more gentle these days, as if her eyebrows and eyes were filled with water. Even Gher grandfather noticed and remarked, "Chloe, why do you look more beautiful these days?"
"Really? Thank you, Grandfather," Chloe glanced at Donovan, who remained expressionless.
Chloe knew he had was always been like this, so she didn't say anything.
On Wednesday, Chloe took the clothes she wanted to exchange to the mall and decided to browse around by herself. She purposely didn't hadn't invited Sofia with her, fearing she would notice something strange and make a big fuss about it.
After returning the clothes, Chloe went to the men's department to buy a tie for Donovan. It just soShe happened that she sawto see Brayden trying on a tie there. Brayden's company was close to this mall, so he had come straight from work.
"What are you buying doing in the men's department?" When Brayden noticed Chloe, and there was a glimmer in his eyes, but he also seemed hesitant.
"I’m want to buying a tie for my husband," Chloe said. "Are you buying a tie too?"
"Yes, I am.," Brayden couldn't quite meet her eyes.
Chloe had thought about this. She didn't think Brayden had done anything wrong. What happened before It wasn't his fault before, and it was understandable that he hadlater when he kneeled before Donovan for his father's sake, it was understandable.
Although But what happened to Donovan's father was also pitifulterrible too.
"Mr. PerezW, why don't you help me pick a tie, Mr. Perez?" Chloe suggested. "I've never bought a tie before."
"If Something for Mr. Blake wears it..." Brayden said. "How about this red and blue one?"
AJust as Chloe was imagining how Donovan would look wearing thisin that tie, Jacob's voice interrupted them., "Have you finishedAre you done shopping, Mr. Perez?"
When Jacob saw Chloe, saw her with Brayden, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Chloe, Are you buying a tie for Mr. Perez, Chloe?" Jacob said with a somewhat mischievous expression.
"SBrother, stop talking nonsense, Jacob!" Chloe disliked Jacob's gaze.
"Then what are you two doing together?"
"I'm done shopping, let's go.," Brayden carried picked up his shopping bag and walked away with Jacob.
Before leaving, Brayden turned back and glanced at Chloe.
Considering what happened the last time when she had bought some clothes, Chloe thought that if she let otherssomeone else, especially Brayden, get involved in the process of buying clothes, Donovan might not want theis tie anymore. She could even imagine Donovan taking off the tie and throwing it in the trash.
Chloe changed went to another store and bought Donovan a navy blue tie with a porcelain pattern at the bottom, spending $1580.
When she got home, she presented the tie to Donovan.
"You bought itDid you buy this for me?" Donovan asked her.
"Yes, do you like it? Try it on," Chloe said, feeling excited as if she was taking credit for buying something for him for the first time.
"I really like it," Donovan said, looking up at Chloe.
Chloe's face slowly turned red. Thosee three words Donovan had said were exactly the same as the three words he had said to her in bed., "I really like it."
Pretending Donovan pretended not to know the reason behind Chloe's subtle change of expression, Donovan stroked his chin, and asked her, "What's wrong?"
"You're so naughty!" Chloe said, then ran upstairs.
