Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover

Chapter 462



Chloe was downright malicious. "How am I supposed to go on after this? How can I face everyone around me? Chloe hasn't just humiliated me— she's dragged you down too. She doesn't care about you or this family at all."

Jacob felt his world crumble when he found out the video had been sent to everyone. It meant that Lisa's disgrace wasn't just a private affair anymore; soon, the whole town of Riverbrook would be buzzing about it. Lisa had set her sights on her brother-in-law, doing whatever it took to seduce him, even going as far as to mess with Chloe's birth records...

Jacob couldn't even imagine what the townspeople would say about the Meadows family now.

"Dad, Chloe just wants to embarrass our whole family. She's jealous and wants to ruin me!" Lisa shouted, pointing at Chloe, her face twisted with anger.

Jacob turned to look at Chloe, standing by the door. Her expression was cold, her eyes unreadable. She didn't even bother defending herself. But it was this indifference that made Jacob feel a growing sense of distance.

Lisa kept hurling accusations. "Dad, Chloe's a curse. She's trying to tear this family apart. You have to cut her off, kick her out completely." Jacob slapped Lisa sharply. After two slaps, she finally quieted down. Holding her face, she looked at Jacob in disbelief.

"Cut ties? If anyone, it's you I should be cutting off. If you hadn't done these disgraceful things, would she have posted it online?" Jacob retorted. "Look at what you've done over the years-plagiarism, framing others, and even slandering your sister Chloe."

"Lisa, let me make it clear: Chloe will always be part of this family. If you dare to entertain such thoughts again, I will break your legs."

Tears streamed down Lisa's face, her cheeks swollen. "Dad, you just like Chloe because you think she's moved up in the world. I'm your flesh and blood daughter. How can you treat me like this?"

Jacob was furious, but he

understood that Chloe's status had changed. She was no longer just a daughter of the Meadows family she was also Connor's fiancée and the future matriarch of the wealthy Sartori family. He knew which side his bread was buttered. Content belongs to NovelDrama.OrgExclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

By exposing Lisa's actions, Chloe might have embarrassed the Meadows family, but Jacob knew Chloe's nature too well to risk alienating her for Lisa's sake. Lisa's reputation was already beyond repair after her plagiarism scandal went global. He was deeply disappointed in this daughter of his. If it weren't for Leah's protective stance, he would've cut ties with her long before. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Now, the Meadows family's only hope was Chloe. When Jacob looked back at the door, Chloe had already left. He glanced at Lisa, who lay on the ground sobbing, and felt a sharp pain in his chest. Content

Chloe and Connor soon left the Meadows family behind. In the car, Connor asked, "Feel better now?"

Chloe was surprised, "How did you know?"

Connor, with one hand on the car window and the other on the steering wheel, replied, "You didn't want to leave because you needed to let off steam."

"But Lisa was really awful, putting a camera in your room," he added.

Chloe looked at him in astonishment. "You knew about that?"

Connor turned to her, grinning, "Pretty sharp, aren't I?"

Chloe snorted, "So that whole innocent act you put on in front of me was just a show?"

Connor coughed, nearly hitting the brakes too hard. "Why would you say that?"
