Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover

Chloe was caught off guard. Her birthday was just two days away. Connor suddenly pulled out a gift bag from beside him. "Here's your birthday present. See if you like it."

Chloe took the bag and pulled out an exquisite red velvet gift box. When she opened it, she found a diamond necklace inside. The design was unique —a black diamond encircled a yellow diamond. The deep, solemn black and the brilliant, dazzling yellow intertwined, along with the intricate design pattern, creating an exceptionally stunning visual. The biggest surprise was the five-carat natural yellow diamond in the center. Such a yellow diamond was extremely rare and incredibly precious.

Chloe was stunned, not because she realized the gift was particularly valuable, but because... this necklace was her own design.

Teddy, ever the facilitator, chimed in, "Despite our hectic schedule on this business trip, we made a point to visit the Kobe International Jewelry Exhibition to pick out this gift for you, Ms. Chloe."

"Zip it," Connor interrupted again.

Teddy fell silent.

Connor asked, "So, what do you think? Do you like it?"

Chloe's eyes were a whirl of emotions. This was one of her latest designs. She had just submitted the draft to her friend not long ago. She hadn't expected the finished product to be on display already, let alone that Connor would buy it. Just a few days ago, her friend had called to tell her that this piece was priced at fifty million.

Chloe closed the box and handed it back. "It's too valuable. I can't accept it."

Connor replied, "Is it more valuable than my feelings for you?" He took the necklace out of the box. "I don't know why, but when I saw this necklace, I thought of you. I just knew you'd like it."

Chloe couldn't help but laugh. Her

own creation was like her child; of course, she loved it. She had designed so many pieces for QUEEN, but she had never owned one herself. Seeing her work fully realized in front of her was a different feeling altogether. There was a wave of indescribable emotion.

Connor added, "I particularly like its name, 'From Darkness to Light.""

Chloe almost burst out laughing. She had chosen the name herself. The inspiration for the design came from the night she moved out of the Moncada family home when Connor had said, "We're celebrating your move from darkness to light."

If Connor knew this piece of jewelry was designed because of him, would he be shocked? At that moment, the necklace and their destiny seemed to be entwined. A coincidence that made one marvel at fate's arrangement.

"It's an interesting name, but I really can't accept something so valuable," Chloe insisted. Fifty million was no small sum.

Connor casually said, "If you don't like it, I'll just throw it away." He pretended to open the car window.

Chloe panicked and quickly reached out to stop him, snatching the jewelry box back. Even though she

knew Connor was bluffing, she couldn't help but marvel at his

whimsy. He might have actuel

thrown it out if she hadn't stopped him. She couldn't bear to see such a valuable piece of jewelry discarded, and it's her own hard work.

Chloe said, "I like it, thank you." She thought she could always give him a gift of equal value on his birthday. Even though Chloe was wealthy, the thought of giving away a fifty-million-dollar gift still stung.

When Chloe accepted the gift, a smile spread across Connor's handsome face. "Your birthday is the day after tomorrow. How do you want to celebrate?"Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Chloe hadn't expected Connor to be so attentive. In fact, she had never told him her birthday.
