Chapter 273



"How did you two meet?"

"Well, that day, I had just finished work when I saw a robbery happen right in front of me..."

Pax began recounting his first encounter with Chloe, describing every detail as if he were reliving that exact moment. His storytelling was so vivid, it was like he was lost in the memories of that day.

On the other hand, Connor felt a sudden tightness in his chest. He had no idea Chloe had experienced a robbery while in Paris.

"Chloe is amazing. She took those two guys down like it was nothing; she was practically glowing with confidence. When she looked up at me, her eyes were like the brightest gems in the world. At that moment, I felt my heart stop beating..."

"Do you know what that feels like?" Pax leaned in closer, asking Connor.

With a stern look, Connor responded, "No, I don't. I just know that if your heart stops beating, you're dead."

Pax scoffed, "Uncle Connor, you might be a genius in business, but you don't understand love."
