Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 35

Chloe spotted him, too.

To be honest, in the last three years, Chloe had rarely seen him fully dressed. So, seeing him at Marian's party really threw her for a loop. It wasn’t because of his high status but because his whole vibe had changed. He had gone from a carefree playboy to a cool, refined gentleman. She just couldn’t wrap her head around it.

Next to Connor, a guy with gold-rimmed glasses chimed in, "Riverbrook really is a paradise. Even polygamy is allowed. No wonder you didn’t want to leave for the capital three years ago, Connor."

The others laughed. "Devon, you’ve got the guts to joke about Connor. Don’t forget, we traveled all the way from Eldridge to work for him."

"Yeah, Riverbrook’s customs are wild. I envy Mr. Lucas—two beautiful wives, one stunning like a queen, the other charming and sweet. What a lucky guy."

Linda bit her lip, saying nothing. She was soon to become a prime-time TV host, a household name. She couldn’t afford a scandal. She knew Chloe well. Back in school, Chloe never competed with her. Chloe always stepped aside, whether it was for pretty dresses, bags, scholarships, or opportunities to study abroad. Linda had taken so much from her, including Lucas, which was the final straw that drove Chloe mad.

But so what? Lucas had been with Linda for three years abroad, and Chloe knew but didn’t care. Chloe wasn’t as fierce as she looked. Her striking beauty often made people think she was aloof and competitive, but in reality, she was more laid-back or maybe just too proud to compete.
