Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 243

Connor stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows of his office, watching as the rain started to pour down outside. His mind had been lost in thought for quite some time. His and Chloe's reunion as adults had been just as dramatic as he imagined it would be. Even after more than a decade, he recognized her instantly.

Back then, her life had hit a rough patch. He always thought that such a bright and cheerful girl would grow up to be a beacon of light, but she was suffering from severe insomnia because her mind weighed down with worries. She might have seemed carefree on the outside, but she was falling apart inside. That was when he decided he had to love her right.

So, he became her Trophy Boy, doing everything he could to love, please, and heal her. Even though he knew she only saw him as her fuckbuddy, he also knew it was the only way he could love her.

But everything changed when Claire suddenly returned to the country. The calm waters of their lives began to stir. He knew that a towering wave of trouble might rise, sweeping all of them into chaos. How could he protect Chloe completely? It seemed nearly impossible.

Connor's older sister, on the surface, was the all-powerful lady of the business world. But inside, she was a madwoman, capable of going off the rails at any moment. Without being fully prepared, Connor could only deceive the public and stay away from her. Maybe this was the best outcome for now.

Connor glanced outside at the increasingly heavy rain, watching the world blur in the storm. He didn't want Chloe to get caught up in the dark, dirty, and bottomless pit of his family feuds. One wrong step, and she could be shattered to pieces.
