Chapter 498 At such an old age, why are you taking photos?
Chloe: [We haven't picked a spot yet.]
Donovan: [Where are you now?]
Chloe: [Sofia and I are at school.]
Donovan: [I'll come get you. We can figure it out on the way.]
Donovan knew the school well. He parked nearby, and Chloe, Sofia, and Loren hopped into the car. All three squeezed into the back seat.
"Hey, Godfather!" Loren greeted Donovan with a big grin.
"Hey, Loren," Donovan replied.
"Awesome, now that Donovan and Chloe are both here," Sofia said. "Chloe, what's in your bag? It's kinda poking me."
Sofia had accidentally bumped into Chloe's bag and was curious.
Chloe suddenly remembered she hadn't gone home last night, and the food containers were still in her bag.
"Huh?" Chloe played dumb, not knowing Donovan had visited her home. If she told the truth, she believed Donovan would definitely ask why she didn't go home last night, and she'd be busted.
"Books? I usually carry books in my bag," Chloe said.
"I see." Sofia didn't push it further, not caring much about books.
They soon arrived at the restaurant Chloe had picked, a barbecue joint.
With little time, Chloe couldn't choose a better place. Plus, all the good spots had their private rooms booked. She had no choice but to pick this new barbecue place with some discounts.
Honestly, Donovan had never been to such a cheap diner before. But since Chloe was treating, he went along with it.
Chloe didn't book a private room, just a table for four. Donovan naturally sat next to her. The waiter brought the dishes.
"Chloe, did you know Barbara's at Pearl Peak University now? I saw her at school earlier. She's dating a college student! Can you believe it? At her age, dating a college student! How embarrassing!" Sofia said to Chloe with a look of disdain.
"A college student?" Chloe hadn't paid much attention at first, but then she remembered dropping Jeffery off at school and wondered if it could be him. She pulled out her phone and showed Sofia a photo of Jeffery. "Look, is it him?"
Sofia, while spitting out a bone, said, "Yeah, that's him. He's pretty handsome. And he's got a good build."
Chloe's face showed a hint of anger as she thought, 'Barbara, under Pamela's orders, has once pursued Jeffery. I wonder if Barbara chasing Jeffery is part of some scheme. I need to warn Jeffery about it.'
"You have a photo of Jeffery?" Donovan suddenly asked Chloe.
"Yeah. I have photos of every student," Chloe said confidently.
"What about mine?" Donovan asked.
Chloe was about to take a bite of meat but paused, remembering that he had once requested a photo of himself in exchange for ten photos of Francis. But to this day, she didn't have a single photo of him, except for the one on Facebook from four years ago.
Four years ago, he was incredibly handsome! Of course, he was still very handsome now.
"No," Chloe said. "At your age, you don't need to be taking photos, do you?"
Donovan fell silent.
Sofia watched them bicker and smiled to herself, saying nothing.
"Do you want me to give you a few?" Donovan held his breath and turned to ask Chloe.
"No need," Chloe said, putting the piece of meat in her mouth and chewing.
"Godfather, Godmother, are you two married?" Loren suddenly asked from across the table.
Chloe paused mid-bite.
"We used to be," Donovan answered.
"And in the future?" Loren continued to ask.
"We will be," Donovan replied.
Chloe remained silent.
