Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 740

Chloe went quiet, watching the scene unfold.

What started as a cheerful dinner quickly turned into something all too familiar. Valeria and Madison fell into their routine of playing good cop, bad cop. Both of them were clearly unhappy with Connor's new plans for the company.

Chloe glanced over at Connor, feeling a sudden wave of concern for him. But he just sat there, calmly eating his meal. Then, out of nowhere, he looked up, feigned innocence in his eyes, and asked, “What’s everyone chatting about?”

Connor’s act of playing dumb made Valeria and Madison’s earlier outburst seem pointless, leaving them both simmering with frustration.

Jeffrey stepped in, “Alright, enough of that. Let’s focus on eating. Company matters should stay at the office. Here at home, you’re siblings; at work, you have roles to play. Now that Connor’s in charge, everyone needs to stay in line. Don’t blur the lines between home and work.”

After Jeffrey’s reprimand, Valeria and Madison finally settled down. They somehow managed to finish the meal.

Chloe and Connor retreated to their own spaces afterward. Chloe felt at ease once she was back in the peaceful courtyard.

She turned to Connor, curiosity getting the better of her, “What’s really up with Valeria and Madison?”

Connor sighed, “Valeria’s husband used to hold a cushy position as the deputy director of finance. But he kept siphoning off funds to gamble on cryptocurrencies and lost a fortune. I demoted him to a department manager today. As for Madison, after her divorce, she brought all her boyfriends into the company, and they were all useless. I had to deal with that too.”
