Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 276

In truth, Claire's entire world revolved around Pax. Connor knew all too well that she was strict and controlling, but he believed Claire loved Pax. After all, wasn't every mother supposed to love her child?

Just thinking about it sent a shiver down Connor's spine. He couldn't shake the memory of that day when he was ten and Claire had shoved him into the swimming pool. The feeling of despair and suffocation crashed over him again. The sight of her standing there and watching him sink without a flicker of emotion was colder than the pool water.

As a kid, Connor had adored his older sister, even though she was always so cold and harsh. He depended on her, maybe because their mother once told him that Claire was the first person to hold him when he was born. Perhaps that was why she held a special place in his heart.

But everything changed when he discovered that Claire had been trying to kill him for years, and she had actually put her plans into action. That was when he truly felt the world's deepest malice. Yet somehow, despite her cold and vicious nature, Claire treated Pax differently.

Pax, of course, had no clue about any of this. To him, their family, despite the disputes over inheritance and underlying tensions, was still bound by blood and bone.

That afternoon, Pax went to find Chloe. He waited at the TV station until her shift ended. Chloe had been up to her neck coordinating a new variety show, and it wasn’t going smoothly. Ruben had only mentioned the idea of a new show but provided no details—no guest list, no plans, no scripts, nothing. All they knew was that filming was set to start in a week, and it would be a live reality show. Riverbrook TV Station would be co-producing with Eldridge TV. Riverbrook was just assisting, so Chloe had to follow their lead, putting in effort and cooperating as needed.
