Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover

Chapter 491



The phone line went silent for a moment.

Chloe casually asked, "Didn't you hear they've already tied the knot?" Her eyes locked onto Lucas as she spoke.

Lucas had been staring at the floor, avoiding Chloe's gaze. But when he heard her voice over the phone, he snapped his head up. With Chloe's phone on speaker, everyone around could clearly hear what was being said.

Lucas was taken aback that Chloe would actually call Tara.

Tara's voice came through the phone, as furious as a storm: "That jerk, sneaking off to marry that sly fox behind everyone's back! He used to swear he was done with her, even claimed he couldn't forget you and would wait for you forever, never marrying. I felt sorry for him! Who knew he was living a double life, saying one thing to your face and doing another behind your back..."

Tara was livid: "That bastard, just wait until I get my hands on both of them..." With that, Tara slammed down the phone.

Barely three seconds later, Lucas's phone buzzed. He knew exactly who was calling. Holding the phone, he didn't answer, his eyes fixed on Chloe. The things Tara blurted out were his own buried feelings. He truly couldn't let Chloe go and had planned to stay single, always waiting for her. But when Chloe heard those words, her face remained expressionless, with even a hint of impatience and disdain in her eyes.

Was he, Lucas, really so worthless in her eyes now?

Linda's face briefly showed her irritation too. Her marriage to Lucas was something the Moncada family was clueless about. She had been keeping tabs on Chloe's life and deliberately chose to get married on the same day as Chloe, just to see her reaction. But today, Linda was sorely disappointed.

Lucas had turned off his phone. Linda tightened her grip on his arm: "No matter how the Moncada family sees me, whether they accept me or not, Luca's heart has always been only with me, and soon we'll be a happy family of three." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Linda placed a hand on her belly and looked at Lucas: “Luca, let's go. We've got a prenatal appointment to get to."

Lucas shot Linda a cold glance, his voice frosty: "Let's go."

They'd barely taken a few steps when Connor called out, "Mr. Lucas, hold on a sec."

Lucas stopped, turning around: “What's up?"

Connor's face wore a smile, but his eyes were icy. One hand in his pocket, dressed sharply in a tailored suit, he looked every bit the dashing gentleman. In Lucas's eyes, he seemed so full of life and triumph.

Lucas thought he was gearing up to brag about marrying Chloe. His expression and tone were tinged with hostility and cool indifference.

But then Connor said, “Today's not a holiday, is it? So, is Mr. Lucas skipping work today?"

Lucas was caught off guard. It was Monday, definitely not a day off. He wasn't sure why Connor brought this up, but a sinking feeling started to settle

in.
