Chapter 459 You Really Hate Me
Chloe's knock was answered by a child.
"Who is it?" he said.
"It's Chloe, I'm here to deliver something," Chloe said. She thought, 'Why is Francis at home alone?'
"Wait a moment," the child replied.
Chloe was worried something might happen to Francis, so she didn't leave and anxiously waited outside the door.
Francis ran to the bathroom and knocked on the door.
"Dad, Chloe is here. Are you done?" Francis asked.
Donovan paused, thinking, 'Why is she here?'
"Wait, I'll be right out," Donovan replied.
"Dad, you need to charm her," Francis said.
After coming out of the bathroom, Donovan told Francis, "You go to bed first."
Francis made an OK gesture and said, "I know you're trying to win Chloe over. You have to get her before Jeffery does. I believe in you! Go for it!"
Before long, Donovan came to open the door. His sexy self, clad in just a towel around his waist, exuding charm and vitality.
"Come in," Donovan said while drying his hair.
"Where's Francis? Didn't he just speak?" Chloe looked around, searching for Francis, but couldn't find him and felt a bit disappointed.
"He's asleep. I was showering earlier and didn't hear the doorbell," Donovan said.
Chloe didn't dare look at Donovan. She gingerly put down the toy car for Francis, and said, "This is from Sofia. I brought it over."
"Why deliver it at night?" Donovan asked casually while drying his hair.
Chloe remained silent.
And why come while he was showering? Did she have some plans for the night?
"I just got back and was afraid I'd forget tomorrow, so I decided to bring it over to Francis," Chloe said.
Actually, Chloe was afraid of being seen by others during the day.
"Don't you have anything to ask me?" he sat on the couch, trying to settle into a comfortable position.
His legs spread wide apart, revealing a sight Chloe shouldn't have seen.
Yet he remained composed as he dried his hair.
"What should I ask?" Chloe genuinely didn't know what to ask Donovan.
Donovan thought Chloe would ask about his relationship with Janet.
Donovan paused and asked, "Did you explain everything to him?"
"Who?" Chloe asked, puzzled.
"Your admirer," came his curt response.
"Yeah, I talked to Maya, and Jeffery understands everything now," Chloe said.
Donovan suddenly lifted his gaze and stared at Chloe. "Do you regret that your love was shattered?"
"I don't see it that way! I never expected to face such rumors just after arriving here," Chloe's face was very serious and stern, making her quite intimidating. She definitely had more grace about her compared to three years ago.
"A college student who plays basketball and is in great shape, isn't he your type?" he asked Chloe in a very teasing manner.
Chloe turned around. "I'm not as bored as you! With nowhere else to channel your desires!"
Chloe was actually hinting at the fact that he got Janet pregnant.
"There's no one for me to vent my desires on," Donovan retorted.
As Chloe’s chest rose and fell with the weight of her emotions, Donovan’s gaze lingered on her, a flicker of uncontrollable thoughts passing through his mind.
To distract himself, he stood up and abruptly lifted Chloe’s chin, forcing her to look at him.
"You really hate me, don't you?" he said, squinting at Chloe.
"I hate you for more than just this!" Chloe sneered, thinking of Amelia.
In fact, from the moment Amelia passed away, their relationship had been irreparably damaged.
Donovan speculated that she must be aware of Janet having a child. Janet's spreading of such news was clearly a tactic aimed at Chloe, prompting Chloe to leave for three years.
But he didn't want to bring it up now; someone else would handle it for him.
Donovan's WhatsApp kept buzzing with notifications. He figured it might be his assistant or Paisley, so he ignored them all.
