Chapter 162 Can She Still Get the Property Deed?
When Donovan entered the office, Charles was already waiting for him.
It was the start of the year and Charles had just taken office, so naturally, there were many things to attend to.
"Donovan, what's with your mouth? Did Chloe bite you? Did you have a three-hundred-round battle last night?" Charles teased Donovan.
Donovan was already aware of the injuries on his mouth when he woke up in the morning.
"Not just injuries on the mouth, but on the body too, right?" Charles continued teasing him, "That Chloe is something, but after what happened yesterday, shouldn't you be the one who's angry? Has she taken the lead?"
"How do you know she doesn't have injuries?" Donovan countered.
Charles touched his forehead. "No eyes to see, no ears to hear. I even heard the commotion of the fight."
"What's the matter?" Donovan got back to the point.
He walked to his desk, put down his things, took out a cigarette, and lit it up.
Charles opened the files and briefed Donovan on work matters.
After suggesting a few modifications, Donovan returned to his own office.
There was another knock on the door.
"Come in," Donovan said.
Barbara entered.
Donovan had seen her yesterday and knew she was Jacob's cousin and Chloe's cousin. But he wasn't sure about her name.
"Chloe's cousin?"
"Yes, Mr. Blake, I am Chloe's cousin," Barbara straightened her chest, looking loyal. In her heart, she harbored fantasies, thinking: 'If Donovan gave up supporting Chloe, supporting me would be great. Maybe, as time went on, feelings would develop.'
Looking at Donovan up close now, he was really handsome. The kind of handsome that mesmerized women on sight!
"What's up?"
"I saw you and Chloe coming out together just now. As Chloe's family, for her future's sake, I advise you to break it off with her. I don't want Chloe to fall into this pit. After all, she's already married! Don't lead her into injustice, making her a public enemy, with everyone pointing fingers at her."
"What do you mean?" Donovan furrowed his brows slightly.
"You shouldn't be her sugar daddy! How will people at the company see her? How will her husband see her? They were about to clear up a misunderstanding that day when they watched fireworks together, but with you around, how can she face her husband?" Barbara spoke with emphasis.
Donovan's expression turned serious. "Where do you live?"
"Me?" Barbara wondered why Donovan suddenly cared about her.
Was he interested in her too?
"I live at my cousin's house."
"Jacob?"
"Yes."
"Tell him that he needs to handle the cable TV matter. The mobile company called me. Here's the property deed, give it to him." Donovan said, taking out a property deed from the drawer. He extinguished the cigarette in the ashtray. "For details, ask Jacob, I'm very busy."
After being given a dismissal by Donovan, Barbara couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed.
From Donovan's tone, she could tell that he wasn't very pleased.
Barbara didn't quite understand Donovan's words. What did Jacob's house have to do with him?
Also, when Donovan said to ask Jacob for details, what exactly were the details?
Holding the property deed in her hand, Barbara hesitated to look at it for the moment.
After entering the elevator, she opened it, and it clearly stated, Owner: Donovan & Chloe.
Barbara's head spun for a moment, what did this mean?
Can mistresses still get property deeds?
Chloe seemed to have received quite a lot from Donovan.
