Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover

Leah was too sharp to miss the underlying meaning. After she got home, she couldn't wait to add some extra drama to the evening's events and share them with Tara for hours.

Chloe knew that with Tara's fiery personality, she would definitely storm the TV station the next morning.

So, everything that happened this morning was exactly what Chloe had expected. After being framed by Linda yesterday, she was determined to settle the score. However, she had used Tara in the process, so she apologized.

Tara, upon hearing this, wasn't angry at all. Instead, her eyes were filled with sympathy. "Standing up for you is the least I could do. But one thing, Chloe-you should've called me last night. I would've been there in a heartbeat. I would've exposed that snake for who she truly is and maybe even broken that brat's leg to vent your anger. How could I let you suffer so much?"

Chloe's eyes welled up with tears. She hugged Tara tightly. "Thank you, Mom."

Tara hugged her back and sighed. "Luca, that foolish boy. He doesn't know his own luck and let you down. He's still delusional to this point, and I can't possibly ask you to turn back and forgive him. So, from now on, I'll consider you my own daughter. You'll still call me Mom, and it'll be as if I had two daughters, you and Belle. We'll be a happy family together."

Chloe nestled in Tara's arms, acting playfully. "You'll always be my mom."

Tara's face lit up with contentment. Suddenly, she remembered something. "Is it true that you're now with Mr. Connor from the Sartori family?"

At this, Chloe's face turned a bit awkward, but in the end, she just nodded.

Tara nodded, too. "You should date more. You've wasted too much time on that boy. Go out and have fun. Even if it doesn't lead anywhere, I can tell just based on Mr. Connor's looks and physique that it's worth it."Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

Chloe almost choked on her own saliva. She coughed vigorously a few times.

Tara, seemingly unconcerned, continued, "Dear, don't be too conservative. Date more. That way, you'll be able to spot a bad one from a mile away."

The standards for a daughter and a daughter-in-law were certainly different. When Chloe was her daughter-in-law, she naturally didn't want her son to be cuckolded. now things were different. Chloe was her daughter, and she just wanted Chloe to be happy.

Tara also knew that Chloe's relationship with Connor was unlikely to end in marriage. Although they came from a wealthy background, climbing up to the Sartori family was a tall order.

"I understand."

Then Tara seemed to remember something else. "I have some good news for you. Leading Heights has secured the Paradise Resort project."

Chloe was somewhat surprised. "That indeed is good news."

Tara added, "We have Mr. Connor to thank for that. It's said that he chose Leading Heights from among three competing firms, even though they were the least competitive. But now, it seems he did it for your sake."

Chloe responded, "I really didn't know about this. Leading Heights always strives for quality, and I think he saw that in them."

Tara nodded. "Anyway, we should properly thank him. Now that he's your boyfriend, why don't you invite him over for dinner tonight? We should express our gratitude properly."

Chloe agreed.
