Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 1023

Lucas squeezed Chloe’s hand, desperation in his eyes. “Rose, don’t you trust me?”

Chloe hesitated. She didn’t have an answer. Her thoughts were spinning, the pressure building inside her head until it almost hurt.

Before she could say anything, there was a knock at the door.

She gently pulled her hand out of Lucas’s and went to answer it.

Connor stood outside, a calm, gentle smile on his face. “I made breakfast. Want to eat together?”

Chloe just stared at him. Her expression shifted quickly—confusion, suspicion, shock, even a hint of fear and caution.

Connor seemed to sense something was off. “Chloe? What’s wrong?”

She swallowed hard. “Connor, is Tim really my son?”

The question hung in the air. Both Connor and Lucas froze.

Connor glanced over Chloe’s shoulder at Lucas. It was obvious someone had said something.

His face darkened. “Did Lucas tell you?”

“I just want the truth. Is Tim really my child?” Chloe asked, her voice tight.

Connor nodded. “Yes. He’s your son. You gave birth to him.”

Chloe’s world tilted. She felt dizzy, like she might collapse.

How could this be happening?

Connor looked tense, watching her closely.

Lucas had already told her everything. He must be so sure that, even if she knew, she’d still pick him.

Both men waited for her to react.

Connor shot back, “You’re unbelievable, Lucas. You took advantage of her when she lost her memory. And stop calling her Rose—her name is Chloe.”

Their argument heated up, both of them talking over each other, both desperate to win her over.

Chloe’s head pounded. She couldn’t take it anymore.

“If you two won’t leave, then I will,” she said, spinning around and walking out.

Connor chased after her. “Chloe, wait—where are you going?”

She didn’t slow down. “Mr. Connor, I need some space. I don’t know who to believe right now. Please just leave me alone.”

She kept walking. This time, Connor didn’t follow.

Later, he packed up and left with Tim, checking into a small hotel in town.

Back at the house, Lucas sat alone in the study. He’d already listed the place for sale online and reached out to his black market contacts, offering extra cash to have the identity exchange moved up—just three days left.
