Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover by Rosa Winters

Claire didn't even try to deny it. She just smiled and said, "Turns out my son isn't as foolish as I thought."

Pax's voice turned icy. "I'm not going to help you, and I'm definitely not going to be part of your schemes. I'm not chasing after Chloe, and I'm not helping you get that five percent of the company shares."

"So, you're okay with seeing the woman you love in someone else's arms? That doesn't bother you?"

"Pax, aren't you... jealous?"

Claire seemed to hit Pax right where it hurt.

"Since you were a kid, you've always looked up to your uncle as a role model, but you've never been able to measure up. Your grades, your business skills-he's always been ahead. Even the woman you love, you just let her go to him. Why? Because you don't have the guts to fight for what you want!"

"The way you're acting doesn't seem like something my child would do. You're so defeatist, so weak; you'll spend your life in your uncle's shadow, never catching up."

Claire knew just how to push Pax's buttons.

She knew that Pax idolized Connor. On the outside, he admired him, but deep down, he was always trying to compete.

Connor was a genius. Pax was talented too, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stand on the same level.

Claire knew these feelings were a double-edged sword. With a little nudge, jealousy could turn into hatred.
