Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover

Connor knew the wolves were probably under Chloe's control. But as they closed in, baring their teeth, he instinctively stepped in front of Chloe. By then, Lucas had also snapped out of it. He got up and stood protectively beside Chloe. Linda, watching this, felt her heart break.

"Lucas, how could you do this to me?" she cried.

The four wolves were closing in, all making a beeline for Linda, who curled up in terror.

She had lost all reason, and placed her last hope in Lucas.

"Lucas, help me! We've been together for three years. I don't want to die.

"Lucas, I'm carrying our child. You've heard his heartbeat, seen how he looks. He looks just like you! For our child's sake, save me."

Lucas watchedthe advancing wolves, outwardly calm but struggling inside. He didn't want to lose to Connor now, but he was torn. Linda deserved punishment, but not in such a brutal way. Plus, she was carrying his child.

Finally, Lucas turned and grabbed Chloe's arm. "Chloe, let her go. Linda deserves to be punished, but not like this."Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

His eyes were red with emotion. "Chloe, think rationally. This is murder. If you kill her, you'll end up in jail."

Chloe's face was unreadable. Lucas turned to Connor. "Stop her! Do you really want to watch her kill someone?"

Connor responded coldly, "I won't stop her, but I'll cover for her."

The wolves drew closer, and Lucas grew more desperate. Everyone held their breath just as the wolves opened their jaws to pounce on Linda. Linda's screams pierced the air.

However, the expected bloodshed didn't happen. Chloe calmly picked up the silver whistle and blew it twice. The wolves stopped instantly and ran over to Chloe, nuzzling her ankles and wagging their tails like dogs.

Chloe bent down and petted the wolves' heads. Then, smiling, she said, "Just kidding. These are pet wolves. They won't hurt anyone."

Lucas nearly collapsed in relief. A smirk appeared on Connor's face. He had known all along. The wolves wore collars with tags, clearly indicating they were domesticated. Their shiny fur showed they were well cared for, which was only possible with close human contact.

Pet wolves must have a good temperament Some wealthy folks liked to keep them, each one carefully selected. Any aggressive wolf would be euthanized. The ones kept were were as docile as dogs, if not more so. But wolves are smarter. They understand humans, follow commands, and even perform tricks. Just like how Chloe had them pretend to attack Linda-they did it perfectly.

Connor wondered where Chloe had gotten these exceptional wolves. Their quality were top-notch.

At this moment, Linda finally

breathed a sigh of relief. Chloe

walked over to her, squatting down.

"Linda, I'm done with our conflict, the

fighting, the scheming and the betrayal. I know everything you've done, and it's time we end this once and for all."
