Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover

Chapter 274

Marian's eyes crinkled into a smile as Pax hugged her tightly. "Alright, alright, let me go now."

Pax clung to Marian, pouting, "Grandma, did you miss me?"

"Of course, I missed you, my lovely grandson."

Pax had been raised in the Sartori family mansion until he was five. During those years, Marian was always by his side. Naturally, they had an incredibly close bond.

"And if you missed Grandma, why didn't you say anything when you came back?" Connor couldn't resist chiming in.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

Marian feigned a frown. "Yes, you say you missed me, but you've been in Riverbrook for days now and haven't come to see me?" Pax pouted at Connor before turning his attention back to Marian. "Grandma, how would you like to have a granddaughter-in-law?" Marian was momentarily puzzled. "What do you mean?"

"I came back to pursue a girl. I haven't won her over yet, so how could I face you?"

Marian's face lit up with joy. The Sartori family had plenty of descendants. She had three daughters and one son. One of her daughters, Claire, had a son, Pax. Her second daughter, Valeria, had a son and a daughter, Charlie and Hannah. Her youngest daughter, Madison, had a daughter, Kaitlyn.

It seemed the Sartori family wasn't lacking in descendants, but the relationships among her children were less than harmonious. They were even less connected than strangers and always fought over inheritance or physically clashed at every encounter. Marian was disheartened and had retreated to Riverbrook for some peace.

Fortunately, the third generation

seemed more dutiful, but they were more open-minded than she would like to see. Some declared they'd never marry, others chose same-sex partners, and some decided against having children altogether. Her grandchildren were quite a chaotic mix. Hearing Pax express his intention to find a partner made

Marian absolutely delighted. Content

"Is there a girl from Riverbrook you're fond of? Tell me, and I'll help you out," she said eagerly.

Connor suddenly spoke up. "Mom,

are you sure you can make such decisions without consulting Claire? It might be best not to make promises too hastily."

Marian sighed. She was a traditional, well-bred lady, pampered all her life after marrying Jeffrey. She had a gentle nature, but her children were fiercely independent, especially Claire. She knew she couldn't dictate their choices.

Marian retorted mildly, "Can't a grandmother take an interest in her grandson's affairs?"

Pax declared, "My life's decisions are mine alone. Not even my mother can dictate them. I'll marry only the woman I love or remain single forever."

Marian thought his words were too severe. She leaned in and asked, "And what might this young lady's name be?"

Pax smiled, revealing a shy dimple. "Her name is Chloe."

Connor's expression darkened at the mention of the name.

Marian repeated softly, "Chloe, isn't she your..."

"Mom, Pax is merely infatuated. Chloe doesn't share his feelings."

Marian was taken aback. She knew Chloe had always been Connor's... girlfriend.
