Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover

Chapter 139

After Tara left, Chloe strolled back into the office. Just as she reached the entrance, she spotted Linda coming out, clutching a packed box. Linda stared at Chloe, but there wasn't a trace of anger in her eyes.

"Chloe, are you happy now that you've ruined me like this?" Linda's voice trembled.

Chloe almost laughed. Linda had always been good at putting on a pitiful act. "Linda, you brought this on yourself."

Tears welled up in Linda's eyes. "All I wanted was for you and Lucas to get divorced. Can't you show me some sympathy? Do you really want my child to be born illegitimate, forever scorned, and called a bastard?"

Chloe snorted, her face a mask of disdain. "If your child is born out of wedlock and scorned, that's on you, not me. It's your own despicable actions, your refusal to live decently. Honestly, I pity your child having a mother like you. You hate Shannon for being messed up, and you hate being born into such a family."

"But are you really any better than Shannon? One day, your child might resent having you as their mother.

"Linda, this is your karma!"

Linda's eyes turned red. Mentioning Shannon filled her with fear and loathing. She clutched her belly, "I will never treat my child like Shannon did. I love my child more than anything. It's the result of my love for the man I adore most. Chloe, you'll never understand how much I love him."

Chloe's expression remained indifferent. "I don't need to understand, nor do I care to. Lucas and I have been over for a long time. I couldn't care less about whatever happens to you."

Linda's eyes flickered with confusion. "What do you mean?"

Chloe's lips curled into a sly smile. A shrewd gleam flashed in her eyes. It was the same expression Linda had often seen during their school days the look Chloe had when she was scheming. School-day Chloe was no pushover.

"Linda, didn't Lucas tell you? We never officially married, so our marriage never actually existed." Linda's eyes widened, too shocked to speak.

Chloe continued to stir the pot. "We were never married, yet Lucas never told you that. He never gave you the place you've been longing for. If he truly loved you, he would have made it official long ago instead of leaving you pregnant and desperately waiting for him to leave aNôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Linda was speechless, her emotions surging like a stormy sea. Chloe's voice remained casual, like they were just two friends gossiping.

"A man might not love you just because he gives you things, but if he has something and hides it from you, he definitely doesn't love you."

Chloe was tall. She deliberately stooped down a bit, looking directly into Linda's eyes. "Linda, you're really so pitiful."

Then, Chloe turned around, tossed her wavy hair, and strutted away in her high heels.

A stab to the heart—that was the

essence of it. The box in Linda's

hands fell to the floor with a crash. She almost collapsed, barely able to stand.

What was going on?
