Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 121

Lisa's heart burned with a deep sense of injustice. It felt like a snake was coiling, twisting, and writhing inside her, ready to burst out of her chest. Her fingers clenched so tightly that her nails dug into her flesh. Anger and embarrassment made her body shake uncontrollably.

She felt like a spent arrow and began screaming at the screen. "It's all lies, every bit of it! Chloe set this whole thing up to frame me!" Her hysterical cries echoed through the crowd, but their reactions were even stranger. They stared at her as if she had lost her mind. Some even stepped back in disgust.

Jacob could no longer stand it. He strode forward and slapped Lisa across the face. "Lisa, haven't you caused enough trouble? You are embarrasing us."

Lisa quieted down instantly, tears streaming down her face. She couldn't understand how things had spiraled out of control.

Flushed with anger, Jacob apologized to everyone, "I'm sorry, our two daughters have caused such a scene, turning this into a spectacle for you all." He continued, "Today's incident was a misunderstanding involving my eldest daughter, Chloe. I believe Lisa was also taken advantage of. As for the matter of the Meadows family adopting a daughter, let's pretend it never happened. We would never adopt someone with malicious intentions."

Jacob then turned to Linda, who was already in a state of shock. "Ms. Linda, please leave. You're not welcome here."

Finally, Lucas shifted his gaze from Chloe and Connor back to them. His eyes were icy cold. Without a word, he turned and strode towards the exit of the banquet hall. Linda followed him out. After they were gone, Jacob's expression softened slightly.

He approached Chloe, his voice gentle. "Chloe, I misunderstood you." Then, turning to Lisa with a cold voice, he said, "Lisa, come here and apologize to your sister." Covering her face, Lisa walked over with gritted teeth. She knew there was no turning back now. "I'm sorry, Chloe. Honestly, I was just messing around." Lisa begrudgingly apologized.
