Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover by Rosa Winters

Chapter 552

"I can't stand any of you, I just can't..." Lisa was yanked out the door, kicking and screaming all the way. She wasn't about to give up easily. "Chloe, I'll never let you off the hook, not even in death," she yelled as she was dragged away. Leah turned her head, unable to witness the chaos. Tears rolled down her cheeks, but she knew deep down she couldn't keep covering for Lisa. Her favoritism had turned Lisa into a loose cannon, and resorting to drugging someone?

Leah felt a wave of guilt wash over her whenever she thought of Chloe. She couldn't even bring herself to meet Chloe's eyes. Watching Jacob, pale and shaky, was agonizing. Leah turned to Neil and Ruby, saying, "Mr. Neil, Ms. Ruby, our daughter has brought this upon herself. We won't shield her. As her parents, we'll take her to the police for questioning. Please excuse us for leaving early."

Neil nodded with a gentle tone, "Take care, Leah. Butler, please see them out." He recognized Leah's hint of conscience. As parents, it was right to face the fallout of their child's mistakes together.

"You can rest easy on that front. She's now part of the Shaw family as our goddaughter. With my husband, myself, and her four godbrothers, there isn't a soul who would dare harm her again."

Leah caught the underlying message, blushed with shame, and hastily left with Jacob.
