Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 990

Grayson made a quick exit. Before leaving, he made Chloe wear a hat, sunglasses, and a scarf, making Chloe feel like he was hiding from someone.

Meanwhile, Connor got the room number where Rose and her husband were staying from the hotel manager. He intended to pay them a visit, but just as he was about to, he learned they had already checked out. A peculiar feeling stirred within him.

Later that evening, Connor received a report, an investigation into Rose's background. The details were pulled from Japan’s ID system, confirming Rose was indeed Japanese. Connor's disappointment eased as he read on. Over the years, he’d encountered many women who bore a striking resemblance to Chloe. Almost identical, in fact. Yet, with a single glance, he always knew they weren’t her.

His eyes lingered on the photo in the report. This woman bore an even closer resemblance to Chloe, but something was off. Her smile was gentle and reserved, typical of Japanese women, unlike Chloe's bold and radiant grin. How could she possibly be his Chloe?

Still, that faint similarity gnawed at him. The next morning, Connor found himself at the Saki residence's door, clutching a thank-you gift. He knocked for ages, but no one answered. A neighbor eventually peeked out.

“Mr. and Mrs. Saki aren’t home. Mrs. Saki heard yesterday that her father was suddenly ill, so they went back to the countryside in Hokkaido,” the neighbor explained.

Connor frowned. The hotel manager had mentioned they checked out just a day after arriving. Approaching the neighbor’s door, he handed over the gift, speaking fluently in Japanese, “This is for Mrs. Saki. Could you pass it on when they return?” The neighbor agreed.
