Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover



Chloe's heart skipped a beat, worried that Lucas might say something awkward. She glanced down at the baby in her arms, feeling a swirl of emotions. Mostly, she felt guilt. Despite Linda's outrageous and extreme actions before her passing, in the end, her life was exchanged for another. No matter what, Chloe had resolved to treat Linda's child as her own.

Chloe spoke up, "I should check with my husband to see if he'd be up for being the godfather." Lucas's eyes flickered with disappointment. This godmother talk was just a way to gauge Chloe's feelings about the baby. But Chloe didn't seem to have any special connection with the child.

"I agree," came Connor's voice from the doorway. Chloe and Lucas turned to see him stroll in with an easygoing demeanor. "Getting a son for free? Who wouldn't want that?" Connor teased, gently pinching Summer's cheek. "Hey little guy, I'm your godfather now. Be good, and I'll buy you candy." The baby in Chloe's arms let out a tiny burp, as if in agreement. Connor chuckled, "See, he's on board too." Chloe laughed, "Careful with the pinching, or he'll start drooling."

Watching them, Lucas felt like they were a picture-perfect family, and it left him feeling hollow inside. The nanny came to take the baby for a bath, and Chloe, intrigued, tagged along.noveldrama

Later, in the room, Connor handed Lucas a gold-embossed invitation. "Mr. Graham, you've got to come to our wedding." Lucas hesitated before taking the invite, unable to muster a congratulatory sentiment. "Connor, you better treat her right. If she ever ends up unhappy I'll do whatever it takes to win her back."

Connor just laughed at Lucas's words, "Well, you might need to take a number." Lucas couldn't hide his confusion, and a hint of anger crept into his eyes. "I know you've always looked down on me, but I'm serious. I was a jerk to Chloe before, and I know I don't have the right to say this now, but I genuinely want her to be happy. Don't let her down, or I won't hold back."

Connor seemed to see straight through Lucas. "What are you planning? You've tried to use this kid as a way to reconnect with Chloe. You think I didn't notice?"

"Lucas, get a grip. This is your child with Linda. If Linda knew what you were up to, she'd probably come back from the grave. Don't worry Chloe and I will be happy together. Let go of those fantasies. If you're lonely, find someone else and stop coveting what isn't yours,

Connor's voice turned icy. "I can overlook it once, but don't think I'll keep tolerating your sneaky moves. Lucas, keep it up, and I won't be so forgiving." With that, Connor left.

As they left the Moncada family home, Chloe was in high spirits. In the car, she chatted about the amusing moments from the baby's bath time. Reflecting, she mused, "Honestly, having a little one around changes the whole vibe at home. It's kind of nice."
