Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover by Rosa Winters

The plan was to live stream the rescue operation, but it was shut down due to the complexity and overwhelming criticism. Instead, the team fully focused on the search and rescue. Unexpectedly, this morning, the live stream kicked back on by itself, showing Chloe and Connor.

Ruben couldn't believe his eyes. The tech team reported that hackers had breached their system and taken full control. Despite the bizarre situation, seeing Connor and Chloe alive brought a collective sigh of relief. Marian fainted upon seeing them. For days, she'd been running on sheer belief, foregoing food and sleep. She had aged significantly, her eyes clouded and her spirit wilted, as if the flame inside her had burned out. Pax had been by Marian's side, also refusing to eat or drink. He'd gone visibly thinner. The past days had taken a massive toll on him, transforming him completely. The vibrant spark of life he once carried seemed entirely extinguished. He became a shell of himself, often lost in thought, never smiling again.

However, the moment Chloe and Connor reappeared on the stream, Pax collapsed to the ground, weeping. It was a release of long-suppressed emotions, a deep act of repentance. He remained kneeling, unwilling to rise.

Pax had a chance to save them that day. When Claire lost her mind, he could have intervened. Then Chloe wouldn't have jumped into the sea, and Connor wouldn't have gone missing during the storm in search of her. But he had frozen, watching the events unfold without reacting.
