Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 402

The group quickly made it to the villa mansion. Everyone headed back to their rooms to get some rest. Pax was about to do the same when Connor grabbed him by the arm. "From now on, you stick with Chloe. Don't leave her side for even a second."

Pax was already feeling down. The image of his uncle forcefully kissing Chloe still haunted him. For the first time, he resisted angrily, "Why should I follow your orders?"

"Because your mother wants to kill her," Connor replied, his voice steady.

Pax frowned. "Why are you slandering my mom?"

"Pax, we used to shield you from the truth to protect you, so you can grow up in a positive environment. But it's time you face reality. Your mother is ruthless. She’s tried to assassinate me 13 times, twice with her own hands."

Pax was stunned. He stared at Connor, not wanting to believe it, but Connor’s calm expression didn’t seem like he was lying.

"I don't believe it. My mom isn't like that."

Connor's voice remained calm. "The gun Chloe had today? Your mother gave it to her, to kill Diana. Instead, Chloe saved her. Do you think your mother will let that slide? Since we got to the island, they've been in one incident after another. Do you think it’s all a coincidence?"

Pax had to admit, things did seem suspicious. But he still couldn’t wrap his head around the idea that his mother would commit murder. Eventually, though, he agreed to Connor’s plan.
