Chapter 373 You Want Me?
Ten days later, intimate photos of Donovan and Janet on a bed hit the headlines.
Everyone knew Chloe had gone abroad, making Donovan Maple Valley's most eligible bachelor again, with many eyes on him.
As a rich and handsome guy, it was no surprise Donovan had a new fling!
Barbara had these photos faked.
She had paid a lot to get a couple of escorts from a hotel to pose naked in various provocative positions. Then, she had someone expertly swap in Donovan and Janet's faces, making it look real.
In Donovan's office, he smoked while looking at the photos, finding the entire situation quite thrilling.
"Donovan, have you seen this?" Charles asked, walking in with his phone.
"Why are you so worked up?" Donovan squinted at Charles.
"How can I not be? We know you, Donovan. The photos are fake, right?" Charles was genuinely unsure.
Chloe had just left, and Donovan was at an age where his desires were strong. It was normal for him to be with a woman, but how did someone manage to snap a photo?
"Oh, and what kind of person am I to you?" Donovan asked with interest.
"You have refined tastes and high standards. You wouldn't even look at a woman like that, right?" Charles sought confirmation.
Donovan neither confirmed nor denied; he just smiled.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in," Donovan said.
The door opened slowly, and a delicate girl walked in.
She had her head slightly lowered, tears in her eyes, and her hands fidgeting, still sobbing.
Charles took a closer look at the face in the news photo; it was Janet. She seemed to be the girl whose car had broken down on the road a few days before Francis's party.
Donovan kept staring at her.
"Mr. Blake, I'm sorry for coming here uninvited and causing you trouble," Janet said, her eyelids drooping.
"It doesn't matter," Donovan said, leaning back. "Your reputation is damaged. How much money do you want?"
Janet shook her head without saying a word.
"Do you want me?" Donovan asked bluntly.
Janet quickly looked up at Donovan.
Janet was the woman the man in the black suit had arranged for Donovan. He had told her that Donovan's ex-wife was pure and delicate, and she should learn from that so that Donovan would fall for her.
If Donovan fell for her, she would become Mrs. Blake, a title every woman in town coveted.
If he didn't, she still needed to maintain an ambiguous relationship with him.
Now, she didn't know if Donovan had fallen for her, but she had already fallen for him.
Who wouldn't love such a handsome and wealthy single man?
Moreover, after interacting with Donovan a few times, she found him extremely charming, very masculine, and gentlemanly. She liked Donovan a lot.
"No, no, Mr. Blake. I can't afford you! I came here today to apologize. I have no reputation; no one knows me, so it doesn't matter. But you're different," Janet said. "I apologize again."
"If you don't want money or me, what are you doing in my office?" Donovan asked directly.
Charles had been watching Janet coldly the whole time. He disliked her very much.
Charles was also smart. He knew that after they met her that day, and now her nude photos with Donovan were making headlines, she must have schemed it all along.
It was possible she orchestrated the whole thing, first spreading rumors about her and Donovan and then using public opinion to force Donovan to be with her.
Janet's scheming was indeed high-level.
