Chapter 241 That Room Is Mine
Ronald asked the maid at home to make coffee.
"Mr. Blake, have some coffee," Ronald said, "I asked you to come this time to talk about Chloe. She's not happy in our house, and we don't know what to do. We are very distressed."
"I'll take her away," Donovan said.
As Chloe expected, the recent cold treatment she received from the Perez family was all part of Donovan's deliberate plan.
Then, he pretended to be a good person and took over Chloe.
As if she was a student who had caused trouble at school, Donovan was her parent, and the teacher asked the parent to take her away.
However, Chloe's parents were no longer around.
Donovan had been digging a pit for Chloe all along.
But at this moment, Chloe couldn't say anything, just staring at Donovan firmly.
She didn't want to quarrel with Donovan in front of Ronald, as it would make things nasty.
"Oh, okay, I'll go pack her things." Ronald didn't even ask for Chloe's opinion and went into Chloe's room.
Chloe thought to herself, 'I'm indeed unwelcome in the Perez family. Ronald didn't even consult me and went to pack my things directly?'
"There's no need, Uncle Perez. I'll do it myself," Chloe said and quickly packed up her things.
Donovan came in and helped Chloe pack.
About five minutes later, Chloe and her belongings were all in Donovan's car.
Donovan started the car.
"I'm not going back to hillside Villa," Chloe said somewhat angrily.
She had known the loneliness of the hillside villa all too well. Even though quite some time had passed since Kenneth and Amelia left, Christmas was just around the corner. She would be reminded of the last Christmas when both Amelia and Kenneth were present. Now, being pregnant and emotionally volatile, she was easily stirred to melancholy by the merest hint of nostalgia.
"Not going back," Donovan said.
Chloe breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that as long as she didn't go back to the hillside villa, it was fine.
She didn't want to live with him.
"Then where are we going?" Chloe asked.
"You'll know when we get there," Donovan said.
"When you drop me off, I have a few requests," Chloe said.
"Go ahead," Donovan replied.
"You must never let Paisley and Barbara find out about my whereabouts. I'm aware of your ties with Paisley. I'll give your twenty million dollars back; consider it my request to you," Chloe said.
The memory of being pushed down the stairs by Ellie still instilled fear in Chloe. It was pure luck that she and her unborn children survived that incident. Now, with her pregnancy progressing, if Paisley were to discover that Donovan made her living arrangements, Paisley would undoubtedly seize the opportunity.
Donovan frowned tightly.
"Is that okay?" Chloe saw Donovan didn't answer, so she turned her head and asked him.
"Okay."
Chloe finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Donovan's car headed towards Serenity Springs Estates, one of the luxury communities in Maple Valley.
Chloe remembered that in the message sent by Donovan's assistant, there was "Serenity Springs Estates," which meant that this was one of the houses Donovan had allocated to her after the divorce.
"Eighteenth floor?" Chloe looked at her phone and knew the exact location of that house.
Donovan had already taken Chloe's suitcase. He looked up at the floor number and said, "Yes."
From the ground to the first floor, there were several steps to climb, and Chloe found it very difficult to climb because of her big belly.
Donovan reached out to help her up, but Chloe seemed not to see it. She put her hand behind her sacrum and climbed up on her own.
Donovan didn't say anything, just frowned.
There were only them in the elevator, and no one spoke.
Chloe glanced at the elevator and could tell from its grade that this community was very high-end.
She thought, 'He really has a lot of houses.'
The elevator reached the eighteenth floor. Then, Donovan opened the door to 1802.
Chloe couldn't help but be surprised. It was a very large and luxurious flat. Maya came out of the kitchen. She had just finished cleaning the house.
"Maya!" Chloe was very happy to see this familiar face. She asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Mr. Blake asked me to come. He asked me to take care of your daily diet." Maya was a straightforward person. Seeing Chloe's big belly, she said, "I said you were pregnant last time, you didn't believe it, did you? Now it's twins, not bad!"
Although there were rumors outside that Chloe's children belonged to Brayden, Maya always firmly believed that the children belonged to Donovan, so she had no complaints about taking care of Chloe.
Chloe smiled.
Her bedroom was the largest and sunniest one. The Perez family's villa didn't have such good lighting, so it was much more comfortable to live here.
There was another sunny bedroom, with the bedding neatly arranged, not looking like it was uninhabited.
"Maya, do you live in this room?" Chloe pointed to that room and asked.
"That room is mine." Donovan suddenly replied coldly.
