Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover

Chloe was off in her own world, lost in thought. Her mind was swirling with all sorts of questions. For one, why on earth was Connor here on this island?

Connor mentioned that his helicopter had been swallowed up by a storm that night. But Chloe only found him on the third evening after she arrived. There was no way he could have drifted in the ocean for three days in such conditions. Plus, Connor had mentioned seeing a light after he fell into the water.

It had to be her mentor. He must have saved him and then dumped him on this island. That was so typical of that old trickster. According to her friend, her master used to be an assassin for some secret organization. He lived a life constantly on edge, always cautious and distant. This molded him into a serious and aloof person. But after a betrayal and a narrow escape from death, he left the organization and underwent a massive change. He became playful, particularly enjoying pranks, and started valuing money immensely.

Chloe remembered how, since middle school, most of her allowance ended up in her mentor's hands. For a while, he even secretly lived in the Meadows family mansion for a month. He would often wake her up at 2 a.m., sometimes to train her in boxing, other times to play video games with him. Occasionally, it was just to make her watch horror movies with him because he was too scared to watch them alone. During that time, Chloe was always tired, and her grades took a nosedive. On top of that, strange things kept happening in the mansion, and she lost quite a bit of her jewelry. The police couldn't find the thief, even after checking the surveillance footage. Leah even thought the house was haunted and started going to churches to pray.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

In short, her mentor loved causing trouble.

Connor had already sat down beside Chloe, and she hadn't even noticed.

"What are you thinking about, so deep in thought?" he asked.

Chloe snapped back to reality and looked at Connor. He looked pale and weak. "Why don't you get some more sleep?" she suggested.

Connor rested his head on Chloe's shoulder, his usual playful tone returning. "I can't sleep without you beside me."

Chloe snorted, "With me beside you, you'd sleep even less."

Connor sat up straight, a playful glint in his eye and a smirk on his lips. "True, but we could always discuss the meaning of life together."

Chloe glared at him. Despite his

recent illness his pallor and frailty gave him the look of a delicate vibe The top two buttons of his shirt were undone, revealing his attractive Adam's apple. A hint of stubble graced his chin, but he didn't look messy. Instead, he exuded a mix of refinement and wild charm.

His shirt was casually open, and feeling the brisk sea breeze, Chloe couldn't help but reach out to button it for him? Just as her fingers

approached, Connor caught her

hand and rubbed it against his stubbled chin, tickling her. His expression was like a docite,

innocent puppy seeking approval.

Chloe felt a tingling sensation in her heart. This was pure temptation! This guy had just recovered, and he was already causing trouble.

Chloe quickly pulled her hand back. "Starting tonight, you're sleeping on the bottom bunk, and I'm taking the top."

Connor looked dissatisfied. "Why?"

"No reason."

Thinking about how their every move might be under surveillance made Chloe grind her teeth in frustration.

In the following days, Chloe poured

all her energy into finding a certain someone. She was practically ready to turn the entire island upside down. And she did find a clue. In a coconut tree, she discovered a bird's nest with six eggs, one of which was fake In a bamboo grove, she found a hollow bamboo with a fake bamboo bug inside. She even brought down a seagull with a stone, only to find it was fake as well. All these realistic-looking animals were actually equipped with miniature cameras.
