Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover by Rosa Winters

Chapter 6

Lucas' voice was laced with sarcasm. "Isn't this just your usual play? You used to pull the wrist- cutting card, and now it's about the company shares. Chloe, I never pegged you for being so crafty. It’s like cunning runs in your veins—true to your murderous lineage."

Chloe's face turned icy in an instant. This was her sore spot.

Without missing a beat, she shot back, "So, you come running to me after Grandpa puts you in your place, thinking you can bully me? If you’re so high and mighty, why don’t you give up your shares in Moncada International for Linda? When it comes down to it, the family fortune and those shares mean more to you than Linda ever could."

"Grandpa and everyone else knows exactly what Linda did back then. Even if I weren’t in the picture, they’d never accept her, and you know it.

"The real barrier between you two has never been me. If you truly loved her, you'd leave all this behind and stay with her abroad. But you can't bear to part with the family wealth. You refuse to admit that you value personal gain over Linda, so you conveniently shift the blame onto me. Lucas, you’re such a coward!"

Lucas' face flushed red, then paled. The contempt in Chloe's eyes made him want to strangle her. She had always looked down on him, ever since they were kids!

The tense atmosphere was broken by a knock on the door.
