Chapter 387 Getting It at Purchase Price
Unfazed by his exposed thoughts, Donahue spoke with an uncharacteristic
calmness.
Janet’s eyes bulged in disbelief as she gasped, unable to believe what she was hearing.
Donahue had fallen for the model he just recruited?
Images of Doris‘ serene face and pretty eyes flashed through Janet’s mind as
the light of gossip shone wantonly in her eyes.
Who would have thought that the unyielding son of the Smedley family would fall for such a pure and in
nocent girl?
When word got out, jaws would drop in shock.
Donahue graciously admitted it, and Janet couldn’t help but applaud inwardly.
Donahue was truly bold!
“Keep it between us. I haven’t forgotten what happened last time.”
Donahue coolly warned her from the stairs. He had finally managed to catch the tip of the kitten’s tail a
nd didn’t want her to be scared away by Janet’s
bluster.
Remembering the near–accident, Janet guiltily shrank back.
She had wanted to help Donahue at first, but now it seemed that her safety was the top priority.
Poking at the spaghetti in her bowl, she felt a twinge of regret. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
“After you finish eating, check your phone. Your ex–husband is stirring up trouble again.”
Donahue teased in a cool tone, giving Janet something to focus on besides her burning desire for gossi
p.
At the mention of her ex–husband, Janet’s mood soured as if she had swallowed a fly.
She pulled out her phone and opened the entertainment news feed.
As soon as she saw the headlines, Janet was nearly blinded by the word “breaking.”
Donahueiel’s name topped the trending list, with over a million hits in just two hours.
After Janet skimmed through the revelations, her face turned icy.
The man had just confessed his love to her and then staged a heroic rescue at a bar. And the damsel h
e had saved was none other than the model she had just recruited.
If she wasn’t mistaken, Donahueiel and Doris had first met at Peaceral Jewelry’s
exhibition. It seemed that despite his annoyance at her identity and the miscarriage his sister had caus
ed her, he still had enough energy to pay attention to the model.
Taking a deep breath, Janet placed her hands on the table and closed her eyes, trying to calm the turm
oil in her heart.
She was glad she
had been cautious and hadn’t believed Donahueiel when he swore to court her again.
Men’s words were as deceitful, and Donahueiel was the most hypocritical of all!
As Janet sneered at Donahueiel, a slender figure entered the room.
Marvin twirled his car keys around his finger, his eyes narrowed in triumph.
Janet looked up at smirking Marvin and raised an eyebrow.
“With such a radiant smile, it seems your date went well.”
Marvin confidently draped his arm over Janet’s shoulder, a carefree glint in his eyes.
“Sort of.”
Temporarily setting aside her frustrations, Janet playfully nudged Marvin. “Alright, let’s hear it.”
“I took Olive to a haunted house.”
Janet raised her eyebrows in surprise, not expecting Marvin to be so adventurous.
Many couples chose haunted houses for dates, where frightened girls would cling to their protective bo
yfriends, creating a romantic and intimate
atmosphere.
However…
Thinking of Olive, who was known for being tougher than most men in fights, Janet couldn’t help b ut feel uncertain.
She didn’t knock down those staff members of the Haunted House and ruín
their careers, did she?
“Did she… end up beating up the haunted house staff?”
Marvin
waved a finger in front of Janet, smirking. “Do you really think I’d settle for an ordinary haunted house e
xperience? Am I that kind of cliché person?”
“We had a competition to see who could catch more ghosts!”
Janet froze on the spot, wondering if it was too late to take back her earlier praise.
She stared at Marvin, dumbfounded. “Did you actually enjoy that?”
“Why wouldn’t I?”
Marvin pulled up a chair and sat down, eagerly launching into a boastful account of his exploits.
“I devised a flawless strategy to catch each ghost with precision! By the time we were halfway through,
Olive had only caught five.”
Janet rested her head in her hand in dismay.
At times like these, she wished Marvin could be a little less competitive.
The prospect of Marvin awakening to the truth on his own seemed like an impossibility. Janet had to pa
tiently explain it to him
“When you’re out with a girl, it’s not about winning or losing. The game isn’t the goal, but capturing
her heart is! If you can’t learn to compromise, you’ll both have a miserable dating experience.”
Marvin’s thoughts scattered, his mind reeling from the revelation.
Later, when he asked Olive to honor their wager and requested a kiss, he didn’t
sense anything amiss. After the kiss, Olive wiped her lips and ridiculed his lackluster technique.
“I doubt it.” Marvin pouted, “She enjoyed herself and even laughed at my kissing skills.”
He couldn’t shake the feeling of being underestimated by the girl.
Janet felt as if her head were ablaze. Normally cunning, Marvin was utterly inept when it came to matte
rs of the heart.
She wondered if when God created men, he left out a crucial piece
of their brains. Why were they all so infuriating?
Fed up, she shot Marvin a piercing glare and retreated upstairs, her expression a mixture of disappoint
ment and frustration.
Feeling unfairly judged, Marvin pursed his lips and sought solace from his
fans.
“I’ve been wronged by my little sister. Does anyone know what’s gotten into her?”
Beacher was the ever–vigilant observer of juicy gossip.
He quickly shared the latest scandal involving Donahueiel’s skyrocketing

popularity.
Upon finishing the text, Marvin turned livid.
He had shown some leniency towards Donahueiel, who had spent the entire
night outside the villa, pleading for Janet’s forgiveness. But that scumbag
proved to be a two–timer.
This man was not worthy of Janet, who was a precious Anastasia.
A single act of betrayal would taint him for life! If Donahueiel dared to
approach Janet again, he’d teach him a lesson.

Donahue was a hothead who only knew brute force.
The Handsomest: [Are you despising me? Then what do you suggest?]
Donahue would terminate all business agreements immediately, and the Webster Group would be fore
ver on the blacklist.
F5: [The Handsomest…]
Fair enough! When it came to tactics, Donahue was always decisive and ruthless.
