Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover by Rosa Winters

Chapter 48

Linda had been expecting Chloe to ask her this question since yesterday. She already had a plan in mind.

Linda didn't deny it. "Yes... it was me, but it slipped out by accident. I didn't mean to, Chloe. Please forgive me."

Chloe wasn't surprised. She just scoffed. "Linda, stop acting."

Silent, Linda’s tears began to fall like a summer storm, a sight that could make anyone feel pity.

She dropped to her knees. "Chloe, I don't expect you to forgive me. Whether you believe me or not, I've been living with this guilt for years. If you blame me, then hit me. Maybe it’ll ease my conscience a bit."

Linda grabbed Chloe's hand and tried to slap herself with it.

Chloe pulled her hand back, so Linda started slapping herself. Once, twice, and soon, her face bore the mark of five fingers.

Chloe watched her, feeling a wave of irritation.

Chloe grabbed her wrist. "Linda, did you have someone violate me? Was that your doing?"
