Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 683

The valet had already swung by to open the car door, but there was a noticeable pause before anyone stepped out. Just as he was about to lean in and say something, the driver hopped out instead. He went to the trunk and pulled out a wheelchair. That's when the valet noticed it—underneath the elegant lady's dress, she had only one leg. With a bit of help from the valet and the driver, she settled into the wheelchair.

The driver, looking a bit worried, asked, “Miss, are you sure you'll be okay on your own? Want me to push you inside?” Her response had a sharp edge to it: “No, thank you. I've got it.”

As soon as Chloe rolled into the banquet hall, she became the center of attention. A big screen was broadcasting the red carpet action outside, and everyone knew she and Connor had just tied the knot. Guests swarmed in to congratulate them, creating a lively buzz around the couple. Chloe recognized a few faces, but most were strangers to her.

Connor took the time to introduce her to some key people—senior execs from Sartori Corporation. Chloe greeted them with all the grace and politeness she could muster. Yet, she couldn’t help but notice that behind their courteous facades, many of their comments were laced with sarcasm and subtle digs.

Given their status within Sartori Corporation, Chloe maintained her composure and smiled for Connor’s sake. But whenever they encountered such thinly veiled hostility, Connor would gently steer Chloe away. After a few run-ins, Chloe whispered to him, “Isn’t it a bit rude to just walk away like this?”

Chloe sighed, “I can handle a bit of attitude. After all, they’re like your family, and to them, we're an odd match. There's no need for you to make it awkward on my behalf.” Connor replied, “They’re all in Claire’s camp, so there’s no need to play nice.”
