Chapter 223 Whose?
Chloe wiped her mouth and said, "Mr. Parker?"
"Yes. It's me. I heard you were studying abroad. How was it?" Matthew looked Chloe up and down.
Chloe muttered to herself, "Ugh, just got back and already bumped into someone who knows Donovan. What's the plan now?"
She wished that Matthew would mingle, have a few drinks, head home, and forget about meeting her. Since Donovan seldom went out at night, she wasn't concerned about crossing paths with him.
"It's fine. I came back for exams, and my friend invited me to dinner." After Chloe finished speaking, a wave of nausea hit her again, and she continued to vomit.
Matthew felt awkward staying here at this time.
"Well, Mrs. Blake, I have another engagement, so I'll leave first," Matthew said to Chloe.
Chloe nodded.
Matthew returned to the private room and sat next to Donovan.
"Mrs. Blake is back? I just saw her," he said to Donovan.
Donovan paused briefly before stating, "She's returned and is having dinner with her friend.”
Mr. Blake, your effectiveness is commendable. She didn't get pregnant while you were in the country, but did when you were abroad. How frequently are you traveling to Verdania?”
"How do you know she's pregnant?" Donovan smiled faintly, but his eyes were as cold as ice that couldn't be melted.
"She's showing obvious signs of pregnancy, very obvious, she's vomiting. But it seems like it's in the early months, and it's not showing much yet."
"Yes," Donovan replied calmly.
“Chloe is back! She came back without telling anyone. She might be pregnant with another man's child," Donovan pondered to himself. "She left four months ago. If the baby was mine, she would have begun to show by now.”
That day, she deliberately took contraceptive pills in front of him, ensuring that the chances of the child being his were nearly nonexistent.
Brayden was also in Verdania at the time. If Matthew hadn't coincidentally bumped into her that night, she might have vanished without a trace.
Chloe returned to her seat and told Sofia, "I'm finished eating. Let's head back.”
"Are you Feeling better now?" Sofia asked, "Where did you go to the restroom just now? I didn't catch up with you."
"It's the one on the left. Let's go. I'll go back early to sleep and study for the exam tomorrow," Chloe replied.
"Okay."
Logan drove Chloe back to the hotel and then took Sofia home.
Sofia's phone rang, and Sofia was so startled she almost threw her phone away.
"What's wrong? Answer quickly," Logan said, watching Sofia shiver beside him. "What's going on?"
"The devil is calling me. He wants me to die now, and I won't live to see tomorrow," Sofia said.
She calmed her emotions and answered the phone, "Mr. Blake, are you looking for me?"
"Chloe is back?" Donovan's voice plunged her into an instant chill.
For Sofia, Donovan's voice was like the call of the devil.
"Yes, Mr. Blake, she just had dinner with us, you know it?"
"Where is she staying?" Donovan asked.
"She's staying at the Tranquil Haven Hotel near her exam site, room 3342."
"Okay."
"And Mr. Blake, please don't tell her I told you," Sofia said.
Donovan abruptly ended the call, leaving Sofia feeling extremely unsettled. Soon after, Donovan's silhouette materialized at the door of room 3342.
He knocked, and Chloe, holding an auditing textbook, opened the door, looking surprised and speechless at the sight of Donovan.
Without a word, Donovan pushed the door open and closed it behind him.
"Whose?" he asked Chloe with a stern face.
"What?"
Donovan's attention was drawn to a pregnancy test stick on the table. He walked over, picked it up, and was stunned to see two lines on it. Gritting his teeth, he clenched them tightly.
"Whose!" he raised the test stick.
He was more certain now that this child was definitely not his. If it were his, she wouldn't have waited until now to use a pregnancy test stick!
"Mr. Blake, if men could get pregnant, you'd probably have five pregnancies by now, wouldn't you? Your own moral standards aren't exactly noble, so why criticize others?" Chloe said.
She had brought up the idea of divorce in the past, but he had refused and allowed her to depart. This signified his acceptance of living separately.
She had intended to live apart for three or four years, which would ultimately result in divorce.
Donovan took two strides forward, seized Chloe's wrist with both hands, and pushed her against the wall.
"I'm asking you whose child it is!" Donovan gritted his teeth and asked.
Chloe stayed silent, averting her gaze. Donovan's eyes landed on Chloe's wrist, noticing a bracelet that stood out to him.
She didn't usually wear bracelets, especially not this type. It seemed likely that the bracelet either belonged to a man or was a gift from him.
They had once shared a sweet relationship, but now her companion had changed.
"Don't take my words lightly," he gritted his teeth.
" Following Amelia's passing, you drugged me with sleeping pills. Mr. Blake, you haven't exactly been a model of virtue yourself, so don't expect it from others!" Chloe fixed him with a steely gaze. "Let's divorce!"
Shortly after, Chloe turned her head back, staring at him coldly.
"Coming back pregnant with another man's child and talking to me about divorce?" Donovan was furious. "I will grant your wish!"
He forcefully pushed Chloe onto the bed and started to unfasten his belt. Chloe recognized the familiar pattern; he had done this before.
Resigned to the situation, she retrieved a condom from the nearby cabinet and prepared for what was to come.
Donovan observed her actions, his expression shifting, but he continued to unfasten his belt.
