Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 409

Pax couldn't believe his eyes. Everything his uncle had said turned out to be true. It was the first time he had seen his mother in such a wild state—her eyes were bloodshot, her face twisted with a sinister expression, like a demon freshly clawing its way out of hell, her hands smeared with blood. He was scared out of his mind. Completely terrified.

Claire's venomous words, dripping with illogic and arrogance, treating life like it was nothing more than ants underfoot, they all showed him a different side of his monther. It was like she was a stranger. Pax felt like someone had dropped a bomb in his world, bullets flying, shards of his life cutting through flesh and bone. In an instant, his world was left in tatters, completely unrecognizable.

He had no clue how long he'd been on that rooftop. It wasn't until he saw a helicopter coming back that he started to snap out of it. He jumped to his feet.

“Uncle…” he called out, hoping it was Connor returning. Then it hit him—Chloe had jumped into the sea. In that moment, the raging storm inside him turned to ice. Nothing else mattered now. Chloe was all that mattered.

Pax sprinted towards the helicopter. To his dismay, it wasn't Connor who stepped out, but Teddy. Grabbing Teddy's arm, he asked frantically, “Teddy, where’s Uncle Connor? Did you find Chloe? She’s still alive, right?”
