Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 831

Previously, Claire had to unload nearly all her assets to patch up the financial mess at Eldridge Entertainment. This included her beloved estate, The Manor. In her haste, she ended up getting shortchanged. To her surprise, The Manor ended up in Connor’s hands.

Claire asked, “And what about Paradise Island? Did you snag that too?”

Paradise Island had been another one of Claire's prized possessions. With no other options, she’d sold it for a fraction of its worth. The buyer went through a middleman, and now she was beginning to suspect Connor was behind it.

Connor replied honestly, “No, that wasn’t me.”

Claire found it odd. If it wasn’t him, then who? But she didn’t dwell on it for long. What she lost, she’d find a way to reclaim. Bankruptcy? Not a chance. She wouldn’t go down that easily.

Claire shot him a defiant look. “Connor, you’ve made things tough for me, and I’ll make sure you don’t have it easy either. You’re getting hitched soon, right? I’ve got a surprise lined up for you.”

Connor’s expression turned stormy. “What are you up to?”

“Oh, I won’t let you live happily ever after,” Claire smirked. “As long as I’m around, you won’t get your way.”

Connor’s face grew colder. “Why? Why this hatred? What burden do I carry? Tell me.”

Claire’s face hardened. “You shouldn’t even exist, let alone live so well. Your genes are the vilest and most repulsive. Just seeing you makes me sick.”
