Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 440

Claire tightened her grip on her wine glass. "What are you planning to do with him?"

Connor leaned back, unfazed. "Didn't you always say I was born a bad seed? I've just picked up a few tricks from you, sis. Compared to you, I'm not even close to being ruthless."

Claire let out a dry laugh. "You truly are a devil at heart."

"If you think I am, then maybe I am. Wouldn't want to disappoint your training and expectations."

"What exactly do you plan to do with Barrett?"

"Relax, I'm not going to kill him. I'm a businessman; I know how to get the most out of him."

Claire couldn't quite read Connor's intentions.

Their eyes locked in a silent battle.

Finally, Claire sighed, "Alright, what's your price?"

Connor didn't miss a beat. "I want The Emporium."

This wasn't just any place. The Emporium was part of Sartori Corporation, a high-end shopping haven boasting the world's top luxury brands. It was also the country's only members-only mall.

It was one of Claire's most cherished assets, not because it was the most valuable, but because it connected across various sectors.

Connor's demand made Claire chuckle. "You've got some nerve. Do you realize The Emporium was a complete disaster when it came to me? I've turned it into the world's top shopping destination. It's like my child. Do you think I'd just hand it over for some actor?"

Connor remained calm. "If it's too much, forget it. I don't force anyone."
