Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 92

When Lucas walked into the lounge, Chloe was the only person there, lying on the couch. He had been dropping by every day, claiming he was there to pick up Linda, but deep down, he knew the real reason—he just wanted to see Chloe.

Ever since that incident, Connor hadn’t shown up again, which reassured Lucas that what happened last time was a one-off. Chloe cherished her position as Lucas' wife so much that she had once threatened to harm herself over him. There was no way she’d give it up easily. Everything she was doing now seemed like a strategic retreat.

Despite his disdain for Chloe, he couldn’t bear to let her go. He wanted to keep her bound to this role, even if it meant a lifetime of mutual torment.

Chloe lay on the couch sleeping peacefully, her breathtaking beauty reminiscent of Sleeping Beauty. Lucas found himself unconsciously moving closer, kneeling beside the couch, entranced by Chloe’s face.

Memories of the past flooded back—how he used to watch her sleep because he rarely dared to look at her so openly when she was awake. Her radiance was like the midday sun, brilliant but blinding. Around Chloe, Lucas had always felt inferior. She excelled in everything—looks, academics, social skills, and talents. He couldn’t measure up to her in any way, which made him love her and yet also feel uncontrollably jealous.
