Chapter 94: Is it because I made you angry?
The premiere ceremony for "Dear Doctor" was on Saturday afternoon.
After Chloe finished watching her mom, she went with Sofia and Logan. Paisley gave them front row tickets and the venue was hot. Logan took off his outer jacket and was wearing only a shirt.
Sofia deliberately had him wear the shirt to annoy Paisley.
Paisley saw Chloe and Sofia in the front row. They had met Paisley before at the New East Group mall.
But Donovan wasn't there.
Especially when Paisley saw Logan, her gaze was fixed on him. She recognized the shirt she had bought.
Chloe and Sofia felt quite happy watching Paisley in a huff.
After the premiere ceremony, Paisley pulled Chloe aside. "Where's Donovan?"
"My husband?" Chloe said. "He said he wasn't interested and sent me instead. I'm here representing him."
"What about the shirt I gave Donovan? Why did you give it to someone else?" Paisley's gaze seemed as though it wanted to strangle Chloe.
"Don't blame Chloe for this. Mr. Blake gave it to me. When I failed in my start-up, I once interviewed to be Mr. Blake's driver. He didn't let me become a driver, but instead invested in my gaming company and helped me get back on my feet. So it's not a big deal for him to help me start my business and give me a shirt or two," Logan said timely.
Paisley's chest heaved with anger.
Chloe was shocked once again. So, Donovan knew Logan when she went to buy the computer? Why was he pretending not to know? To gather more information?
What else does Donovan not know?
She was like a clown bouncing around in front of Donovan, but he knew everything in his heart.
Chloe had gained an advantage from Paisley, so she was in a good mood when she returned to Hillside Villa.
However, when he returned home, he saw Paisley sitting on the sofa, she was chatting with Donovan.
Grandfather wasn't in the living room.
Chloe knew that Grandfather didn't like Paisley, so he probably went back to his own room when he saw her coming.
Chloe's face instantly turned gloomy.
"Stand there!" Donovan scolded Chloe in a low voice.
Chloe was already unhappy with Donovan for hiding the fact that he knew Logan, and now she felt extremely embarrassed standing in front of Paisley.
Last time when Grandfather was sick, he had already made her stand as a punishment.
Chloe stubbornly stood there, thinking to herself: Paisley is really terrible, causing trouble by coming to the house in advance, and giving Donovan a biased impression.
"Who gave you the right to give away something that was meant for someone else?" Donovan furrowed his brows slightly, sitting on the sofa, admonishing Chloe as if she was a child.
Chloe let out a disdainful hum and turned her head because she saw the smug look on Paisley's face.
"If someone else wants to give me something, how can you just give it away to someone else?" Donovan said again. "I haven't even given the guest's gift yet, and you've taken action. Did I give the order? Who is the master of this house? You have no say?"
Chloe continued to be angry, unable to hear the implicit meaning behind Donovan's words.
Paisley's initially proud face suddenly became a bit uneasy. What did Donovan mean? Saying that she was a guest, he and Chloe were family, he was the master of the house, and Chloe had to listen to him? The husband is the head of the household?
After reprimanding Chloe with a serious expression, Donovan turned his face and spoke gently to Paisley, "I've already talked to her, she won't do it again. Don't you still have an announcement?"
Hearing the implied meaning of Donovan's farewell, Paisley had to stand up and leave.
Chloe went upstairs, put down her bag, and sat on the bed.
Not long after, Donovan also went upstairs.
Donovan stood in front of Chloe, as if he was smiling at her childishness.
He gently stroked Chloe's chin, "It's not a big deal. Are you angry because I punished you or because you found out that I knew Logan?"
"Do you know everything?" Chloe raised her face and asked Donovan.
"Almost," Donovan lit a cigarette.
"Well..." Chloe tentatively leaned closer, checking Donovan's expression, "do you even know why I applied to New East Group?"
Donovan furrowed his brows slightly and paused while lighting his cigarette.
