Chapter 437 You Have a Good Taste
On the way to Willowbrook Restaurant, Chloe's heart was tense as she wondered how Donovan would punish her.
It was just as well that the truth came from Donovan; she hadn't planned on dating Jeffery anyway.
Jeffery had caused her trouble.
Francis was the only one who appeared slightly uphappy,, maintaining a pout throughout the journey as he observed Jeffery holding Chloe's hand. He wanted Chloe to come with Donovan.
He suddenly broke free from Donovan's hand and went up to separate Jeffery and Chloe's hands.
"You are not allowed to hold hands!" Francis exclaimed angrily.
"What's wrong, Francis?" Jeffery let go of Chloe and picked up Francis. "I'll take you to eat!"
"You are bad. You smell like sweat," Francis said cutely.
He intentionally embarrassed Jeffery, trying to separate him from Chloe.
Unexpectedly, Jeffery didn't feel awkward at all. "I just finished playing basketball, so of course, I smell like sweat. You'll be the same when you grow up."
Jeffery even playfully tapped Francis on the nose.
His happiness was so palpable!
As the four of them walked towards Willowbrook Restaurant, they saw a crowd gathered in a small park by the road, with people carrying cameras and giving directions.
"Hey, Chloe?" It was Betty again.
She had been watching the filming over there, but hearing the commotion behind her, she turned around and seemed to spot Chloe.
"Aunt Betty." Jeffery had a good impression of Betty.
Since Betty was Chloe's aunt, it was appropriate for him to call her that.
"Oh, you're so polite. Chloe, you have good taste." To be honest, Betty did like Jeffery a bit.
Chloe's face darkened.
Donovan's expression was one of extreme coldness and speechlessness, but he smiled instead.
As darkness settled in, Betty didn't seem to notice Donovan and Francis; her eyes were only on Jeffery and Chloe.
Betty was deliberately doing this for Donovan to see.
"You two are really a good match. You've studied for so many years. By the way, isn't Barbara playing a teacher this time? She can't seem to get into character. I told her to learn from you. Barbara," Betty called out to the crowd. "Chloe is here."
"You saw Chloe?" Barbara hurried over from the other side, greeting warmly.
"Chloe." Barbara came over and held Chloe's hands. "I've heard from my Mom that you're teaching here. Look, you've been in Unity City for a few years, and now we're all back in the country. I'm playing a teacher in this show, and if I don't get it right, I'll need your help."
"Barbara." Jeffery was very polite.
Seeing Jeffery in person, Barbara's eyes lit up again. "This Jeffery is so charming. Chloe, you have good taste."
Barbara felt a bit of jealousy seeing Jeffery.
After speaking, Barbara pulled Chloe aside, smiling as she whispered in Chloe's ear, "Since everyone thinks you and Jeffery are a good match, don't even think about being with Donovan or having Francis call you Mom. This is your life now. You know who's behind me, right? With Francis here, no matter how powerful Donovan is, he can't always protect him. If you tell him, Francis might disappear tomorrow. Even if you find a way to protect Francis 24/7, there's still Donovan. After all, it's too easy to stage another Sarah murder incident!"
