Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband novel Chapter 245

Chapter 245 Moonlit Gully

Byron's voice was neither loud nor low, yet it carried an undeniable aura of authority, capturing everyone's attention in the room.

Byron's gaze shifted from Cora to Chloe.

It seemed Byron had already guessed that Cora was here to catch someone in the act.

Byron thought of how Cora had fiercely defended the two-timing scoundrel in the past, belittling him and making him feel worthless. Byron had indeed inclined to turn a blind eye.

However, Chloe's relentless provocations and Lucas' passivity made Byron reconsider his stance.

He couldn't bear to see Cora isolated and mistreated anymore.

Byron decided to intervene. He couldn't help but feel that Cora deserved better treatment. As he spoke up in her defense, Jane couldn't help but notice that his emotions towards Cora seemed far from resolved.

Jane even began to suspect that if Cora and Lucas broke up today, Byron would attempt to rekindle his relationship with her the next day.

The thought shattered Jane's good feelings and left her feeling restless...

Chloe was surprised when she realized that apart from Lucas, someone was willing to stand up for Cora.

What caught Chloe off guard was the extraordinary aura and demeanor of the man. It was rare for someone with such remarkable qualities within the prestigious Kinton community.

Despite acknowledging this person's excellence, Chloe was determined not to let Byron disrupt her plans.

"We have many talented individuals in our Calligraphy Association, but it's only because Dr. Lane and Mrs. Emily Quinn's son are close that I wanted to test her," Chloe continued to pursue her objective.

"Is it to test her for someone else's sake, or is it just a means to achieve your personal goals? I believe anyone with a clear vision can see through it."

Byron went straight to the point, risking offending the powerful Hurst family in Kinton without showing any regard for Chloe's feelings.

However, Chloe was not the one to back down easily and quickly found a counterattack. "Mr. Hansen, are you so protective of Dr. Lane because you have some hidden feelings for her?"

Byron's eyes simmered with anger, and there was a hint of an impending outburst.

Jane sensed that Byron was on the verge of losing his temper, and his seemingly calm demeanor now had a touch of ferocity.

At this moment, Jane was genuinely concerned that Byron might go to extreme lengths and publicly reveal their relationship to retaliate against Cora.

Lucas was also feeling a bit panicked. He was grateful that his arch-nemesis, Byron, had stepped in to help Cora at this critical moment.

However, Lucas knew that if Byron exposed his relationship with Cora, it would only make their delicate situation even more precarious.

To everyone's surprise, Cora seemed even less willing to let Byron reveal their past.

So after a long silence, Cora suddenly spoke up, saying, "If Ms. Hurst wishes to see me make a fool of myself, then so be it!"

"Cora, don't fall into her trap." Lucas quickly realized and tried to stop Cora.

Byron had finally managed to turn the situation around, and he didn't want Cora to embarrass herself on stage.
