Chapter 815

Connor chuckled, "Who says there's no silver lining to this mess?"

"Big sis, from the start, you never planned for Pax and Eve to get engaged. You never thought Eve was worthy. You wanted to stir up a scandal to drag me down, and if Eve did get caught up in a scandal with me, like you hoped, the Nagel family and Kent would feel guilty and be at your beck and call. Especially now, with the DreamChaser plagiarism scandal shaking Kent's trust in you, you're trying to make him completely loyal, even if it means sacrificing his daughter's reputation."

Claire had been wondering when Connor began to suspect her. Turns out, he had been onto her from the beginning. She never intended for Pax and Eve to marry. Eve was too unsophisticated and loud for Pax. This was all about using the situation to ruin Connor and make Kent feel like he owed her, strengthening her grip on power. Of course, she planned to find a more suitable match for Pax later on, further expanding her influence. But she didn't expect her plan to be uncovered.

Claire's anger flared up, almost beyond her control. She couldn't understand how Connor had gotten so clever. Every move she made was anticipated by him. Naturally, she couldn't admit to orchestrating all this, so she had to swallow her pride. Facing Connor's calm, mocking gaze, she feared losing her composure. Pointing at the door, she snapped, "Connor, get out, get out now!"

Claire's bodyguard approached. Connor smiled slightly, "No need to rush us out. We were leaving anyway. I just didn't want big sis to stay up all night worrying."

With that, Connor took Chloe's hand and they left. That night, Chloe and Connor stayed at the old family mansion. Everyone in their own quarters was lost in thought, emotions running high.
