Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 217

Lisa's face turned a deep shade of anger. "Chloe, you're really testing my patience."

"When have I ever done that? You said it yourself."

Lisa's already pale face darkened even more. She never imagined Chloe actually knew a designer from QUEEN. It was not just any designer. The person she had just called was likely someone even more influential. But there was no way Lisa would kneel in front of everyone here.

"I was just joking, and you took it seriously?" Lisa scoffed.

Chloe didn’t respond but just smiled quietly.

Meanwhile, Jacob stood up. He personally poured a glass of champagne for Chloe. "Chloe, you know someone from QUEEN, and you never told your old man?"

Chloe didn’t respond or touch the champagne. Jacob looked a bit awkward but quickly returned to his seat, mumbling to himself, "Right, you were also part of the design world, quite famous actually, and won so many awards. It's no surprise you know a few big shots."

Chloe knew exactly what Jacob was hinting at. She spoke calmly, "Mr. Jacob, I left the design world."

Moreover, although Chloe hadn’t designed clothes for the company in the past few years, she still competed every year. Her designs always won awards. These were great opportunities for Belle Époque to bounce back and boost its fame. If Chloe refused to participate in this year's competition, it would be a devastating blow to the brand.

Chloe smirked. Jacob hadn't spoken like this before. Outwardly, he had claimed she was still the lady of the Meadows family, but behind her back, he had told Leah that all the company shares would go to Lisa.

At the time, Chloe didn’t want to fight for the inheritance, thinking that his doing this much was already something. But now she realized that he didn’t kick her out Only because he saw value in her.

Chloe once had grand illusions about familial affection. For everything they did, she would initially find excuses for them, then deceive herself.
