Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 57

After finishing his sentence, he was already standing in front of Chloe. He naturally wrapped his arms around her slender waist.

Although Chloe didn't push him away, she turned her face slightly. "I have a few questions," she said.

"Go ahead," he replied.

"Why did you disguise your identity?"

Connor looked into Chloe's eyes, his expression calm. "Seems like you never really asked about it."

Chloe pursed her red lips. It was true—over the past three years, she had never cared to ask or be curious about him. Even though they often shared a bed, she knew nothing about his daily life.

"You knew from the start that Lucas and I weren't actually married?"

Connor casually played with a strand of Chloe's long hair. "I'm not interested in other men's wives."

"When did you find out?"

"That night at the Diamond Club. You were drunk and rambled on all night. It was impossible not to hear."

Chloe was a bit surprised. "Nothing happened between us that night?"

Connor shook his head. "Nothing happened. You just ended up ranting until you fell asleep leaning on me."

Chloe was utterly exasperated. "Why didn't you tell me nothing happened that day?" she asked, a bit angry for reasons she couldn't quite pinpoint.

Connor smiled. "Would you have kept me around otherwise?"

Indeed, for her, keeping Connor was decided with a kind of resigned attitude. It was like since something had happened between them, she might as well go all in. Chloe felt like she had been played.
