Chapter 317 She Had No Idea About It
Donovan scrolled through her phone to Paisley's WhatsApp account and quickly blocked Paisley's updates.
In other words, no matter what Paisley posted today, Chloe wouldn't know. Not just today, but possibly never.
Donovan put Chloe's phone on silent and placed it under the pillow.
After dinner, they sat at the big table in the living room. Chloe was doing the accounts, and the table was filled with documents.
Donovan sat there reading the newspaper, constantly picking up his phone to send messages.
"What are you doing?" Chloe occasionally looked up and asked him, seeing him so busy.
"Work stuff."
Then Chloe didn't ask further.
Before long, Donovan's phone rang again; it was a call from the police station.Donovan was surprised. He was worried that if something was wrong and Chloe found out, it would be difficult to handle.
He went to the balcony to take the call.
"Mr. Blake, our preliminary investigation shows that Walter's death has nothing to do with Paisley. Additionally, Barbara did not break any laws by not saving her. She thought that way and acted accordingly, but she didn't start the fire. She just let it grow without intervening, so we can't take any action against her. Sorry, Mr. Blake," said the voice on the other end.
Walter was Chloe's grandmother.
"It wasn't her?" This result surprised Donovan. "Then find out who it was."
"Mr. Blake, that's our job."
After hanging up, Donovan returned to his seat.
'If the culprit isn't Paisley, then who isit?' he thought.
Even if it wasn't her, Donovan didn't regret his "kill with kindness" strategy against Paisley.
He wanted to make Paisley a target for Barbara to hit hard.
Once Paisley fell, he would prop her up again and continue the cycle.
The ultimate result would be Barbara exhausted and Paisley in tatters.
He would benefit in the end.
He never forgot to avenge Kenneth.
At the Love Heart Elementary School, Paisley dressed very simply and wore no makeup today.
After signing a donation agreement with Alvin Weaver from Love Heart Elementary School, she took photos with the students.
Her team and the staff from New East Group took pictures of her.
Although she had lost many brand endorsements, she was particularly happy today because this was Donovan's idea. She would quietly contribute, let the media promote it, and then gradually become active again, taking on roles and endorsements. Eventually, she would return to normal, and Barbara's exposeabout her would vanish as if it never exsited.
'Donovan is truly a genius. It's a pity he doesn't get involved in film and TV production.
'With his intelligence and vision, he is truly remarkable.
'Even though Chloe is pregnant, Donovan still gave me advice. I still hold a significant place in his heart,' Paisley thought.
Paisley even posted on social media, using photos from her team and a quote from the New East Group's PR department as the caption: [On the road ahead, there will be many obstacles, but children, we will always be together.]
This text was written by Sofia.
Paisley wanted to use this text to tell others, including Barbara, that she was fine and was back.
Of course, if Chloe saw it and got hurt, that would be even better.
But this move wasn't mainly because of Chloe; it was because she wanted to make a comeback.
However, Chloe didn't see it.
She had been working peacefully at home and rarely used her phone.
These days, Donovan had been working from home, and as Chloe's belly grew bigger, he didn't want her going to the office anymore.
Without the daily commute, Chloe felt more at ease with her work.
She had no idea about Paisley's situation.
