Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 89

Lucas looked up at the newcomer. The moment he saw who it was, the fury in his eyes turned to sheer astonishment. He was utterly dumbfounded.

"Mr. Connor?" he stammered.

Lucas' first instinct was disbelief. It couldn't be possible. Yet, there was Connor, casually wrapping his arm around Chloe's slender waist.

"Are you hungry? What do you feel like eating later?" Connor asked Chloe, his tone casual.

Chloe pondered for a moment. "I'd love some of your spicy ribs."

"Alright, let's hit the supermarket and get some ribs then," Connor replied without missing a beat.

Lucas watched their easy, intimate exchange, still struggling to believe his eyes. But this was the King of Eldridge. Moncada International hadn't secured the Paradise Resort project yet, and Lucas knew he had to tread carefully.

"Mr. Connor? What exactly is your relationship with my wife?" Lucas questioned, trying to keep his emotions in check.

Connor kept his arm around Chloe, a taunting smile playing on his otherwise cold face. "Isn't it obvious?"

Lucas felt a surge of anger. "Mr. Connor, you do realize Chloe is a married woman, don't you?"
