Chapter 203 Divorce Agreement
Today, Layla made pizza for Chloe.
Chloe suddenly remembered that Donovan loves pizza.
She had promised to make it for him today, but unfortunately, she ran out of time.
"Mom, what's up?" Chloe asked Amelia.
"Did Donovan not come?" Amelia asked Chloe.
"He's a bit sick today and didn't go to work."
"Then, go back and make him some cold medicine. He'll be fine after a nap. It's good that he didn't come. Let me tell you, your brother has called several times, saying he wants to get engaged, his girlfriend, that Karen, wants a $100,000 bride price. It's worrying me," Amelia said with a frown.
"$100,000?"
Instantly, the pizza in Chloe's hands didn't seem so appetizing anymore.
"Yes, Karen said she's pregnant. I never liked that Karen much, she seems a bit like a blackmailer, but now that she's pregnant, what should we do?" Amelia was also very anxious.
Even the most capable person, when faced with such family affairs that no one can explain clearly, has to step back.
Chloe was also at a loss. In the past, if she had money in hand, everything would be easier to handle.
But now, all her money had been given back to Donovan.
If she were to ask him for money again because of this, he would inevitably feel burdened.
And Chloe couldn't bring herself to ask.
"Can you have Jacob ask Karen to lower the amount?" Chloe asked Amelia.
"The problem is, Karen said that if it's a dollar less, she'll have an abortion! This child is, after all, from the Baker's family," Amelia said, looking helpless.
Chloe was also stunned, not knowing what to do. After all, she was young and had never experienced such things before.
"Mom, I understand, I'll go home first." Chloe felt somewhat lost.
"Okay. Don't tell Donovan, if you do, he might think we're deliberately asking him for money, which could affect your marital relationship. I never expected Karen to resort to using the child like this," Amelia sighed.
"I understand."
"Also, I talked to your grandmother today, your aunt said that your uncle's leg is starting to atrophy, and he needs surgery." Then, Amelia started crying. "Our family is in such a bad state."
"We're not obligated to pay for your uncle's surgery." Chloe felt a headache coming on at the mention of this.
"Yes, hopefully Barbara can earn more as a celebrity assistant, your aunt isn't working either."
Chloe was speechless.
Before her mom woke up, there weren't so many things going on.
What Chloe didn't know was that as she left Amelia's house, she was followed by a man. He covered her mouth from behind, and then Chloe knew nothing.
When she woke up again, she found herself in an abandoned warehouse.
Her hands and feet were tied, sitting in a corner.
Chloe's first thought was that she had been kidnapped.
Then, she saw Barbara standing in front of her, holding a stack of papers.
Beside her, stood two handsome men.
"Barbara?" Chloe was surprised.
"Yes, Chloe, didn't expect this, did you?" Barbara said, "I invited you here today for something I need your help with."
"You 'invited' me like this?" Chloe's eyes stared coldly at Barbara.
In fact, Chloe had a way to solve this dilemma. She could tell the two men next to Barbara that she was Donovan's wife and would give them whatever they wanted, to overpower Barbara. But just now, her mom had told her that her uncle needed surgery and money.
At that, Chloe softened again.
"You're already like this, and you're still talking to me like this?" Barbara looked at Chloe with hatred.
She really wanted to slap Chloe's face, that stunningly beautiful face that had always overshadowed her, now even more so. She had been so much stronger than her since childhood.
"What do you want? Speak."
"Look at the way you're talking to me." Barbara wanted to go up and slap Chloe a few times, but she was afraid Donovan would notice, so she didn't dare.
"This is a divorce agreement, all written up for you, you sign here, and I'll let you go back immediately, unharmed." Barbara placed the stack of papers in front of Chloe.
This divorce agreement had been drafted by Paisley for three days, and Chloe didn't get any benefits at all.
