The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1794

He obviously knew exactly what was going on. To him, Bianca was probably just a fun distraction.

"Ah, Dane's secretary. Still, very impressive."

While Yanni complimented Lincoln, he was clearly just using it as an excuse to suck up to Dane.

Lincoln kept his eyes fixed on Bianca, noting that she still refused to look at him, desperately avoiding his gaze.

He decided not to expose her right then and there.

"You two are probably busy with your date. Go ahead," Dane cut in. Perhaps finding Yanni too annoying, he bluntly dismissed them.

Yanni wasn't stupid; he took the hint and didn't argue. "Right, right. See you later, Dane, Claire, Lincoln."

The fact that Yanni called him 'Lincoln' rather than by his title clearly showed he was mocking the 'university senior' excuse they had just played along with.

Bianca's face drained of even more color, while Yanni's smile only grew wider.

Claire mentally shook her head. This guy genuinely possessed zero chivalry.

If his teasing wasn't enough, he reached over and patted Bianca's arm. "Babe, where are your manners?"

"Say goodbye to your 'senior'!"

"Goodbye, Mr. Green, Claire, Lincoln!"

Bianca practically ground her teeth together as she spoke.

Yanni naturally noticed that she addressed Claire so formally.

He raised an eyebrow but didn't bother pointing out the odd detail.

Watching the two of them leave the restaurant, Lincoln collapsed back into his chair as if every ounce of strength had been ripped from his body.

"Lincoln, are you alright?"

Seeing the devastated look on his face, Claire genuinely worried the heartbreak might push him over the edge.

Dane also stared intently at Lincoln.

Lincoln was undeniably talented, which was why Dane desperately wanted him to push his limits and succeed.

Dane was fully prepared to groom him for greatness, guaranteeing Lincoln a top executive spot at Vertex International in the future.

But if he couldn't even survive a messy breakup, it was hard to say if he had a future there at all.

He needed to either fight to win her back or completely sever ties.

Of course, Lincoln also had the option of taking revenge on Yanni and Bianca.
