Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover

Chapter 446



Alan watched as Connor's gaze settled on Chloe's face, and a spark of excitement flickered inside him. It was clear that Mr. Connor was intrigued by the newcomer. After all, the college student who showed up today had one of those striking faces that catches your attention right away. Even Alan felt a flutter in his chest at the sight of her.

Trying to humor Connor, Alan suggested, "How about she puts on a little show for us?"

The crowd erupted with cheers, but Alan failed to notice the icy daggers forming in Connor's eyes. Devon gasped, shocked by Alan's audacity. But given that Devon and Alan were never on the best of terms, Devon was secretly thrilled to see Alan dig himself into a hole.

Kash, usually calm and collected, was about to step in when Devon subtly held him back. "Just wait and watch," Devon whispered, signaling Kash to hold his ground.

Connor's voice broke through the commotion, "Mr. Eldridge, I didn't ask for your input."

Alan was momentarily stunned, not quite grasping what Mr. Connor meant. Connor reiterated, "So, how do you suggest we deal with him?"

Alan, seething, challenged, "Mr. Connor, are you really going to ruin things with me, with the Eldridge family, over some insignificant woman?" Connor's laugh was cold, sending shivers down spines, "You, Alan, and your Eldridge family—what do you amount to?"

Alan clenched his fists. It was true; compared to the Sartori family, the Eldrige family was small potatoes. Many of their businesses depended on the Sartori family's goodwill, and crossing Connor could spell trouble back home. Yet, Alan couldn't fathom why Connor would publicly humiliate him over a woman, considering his own standing among the Eldridge Elites. Content

Finally, Devon stepped forward, "Eldridge, do you seriously not know who Ms. Chloe is?" Alan fumed, "Who is she? Just a regular college student. What is she, some kind of goddess?" Connor intertwined his fingers with Chloe's and declared, "Alan, open your eyes. She's my fiancée."
