Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 368

Connor was quiet.

Ruben got the message right away, “Whatever you say, boss.”

The helicopter arrived in no time. This time, Teddy was the one flying it.

Teddy had a brief exchange with Connor. Glancing at the battered Barrett, Teddy reported, “I’ve done the digging. Barrett, an orphan, got noticed for his good looks and amazing voice by opera maestro Vincent Marshall. Vincent took him in, treating him like a son. At seventeen, Barrett wowed everyone at a state dinner with his performance. But a month later, Vincent suddenly cut ties with him. Since then, Barrett’s been in the entertainment industry, making a name for himself and earning the title of 'Period Drama’s Leading Man.'”

“What’s his connection to my sister?”

Teddy looked a bit sheepish. From the start of the variety show, Connor had asked him to find out if Barrett had any ties to Claire. Teddy’s investigation turned up nothing. Barrett wasn’t signed with Eldridge Entertainment, and his work had minimal involvement from Sartori Corporation. Claire, being a high-profile figure in a trillion-dollar conglomerate, had little reason to interact with an actor. Plus, due to Suzanne’s influence, Claire despised entertainers and avoided them.

So, Teddy figured Barrett’s appearance on the show was unrelated to Claire. This misled Connor. But just yesterday, while reviewing Barrett’s performance at the state dinner, Teddy stumbled on a shocking secret. Claire had been at the dinner.

Following a hunch, Teddy tracked down the now-reclusive Vincent and uncovered a jaw-dropping secret.

“What? Are you saying Barrett was my sister’s lover?”

Connor glanced at Barrett, his eyes cold, “He’s badly hurt. Take him to ‘The Sanctuary,’ get him treated, and don’t take him to a hospital.”

Teddy quickly left with his team.

The next morning, Diana woke up feeling sore all over. Her head was foggy, and she couldn’t recall what happened the night before. She remembered confessing to Uncle Connor and getting rejected. Then she went to a bar and met Barrett. After that, it was all a blur.

She looked around; the room was unfamiliar, not the one the show’s crew arranged on the island. Where was she? Her mind was too muddled to figure it out. She got up, headed to the bathroom, hoping a shower would clear her head. But when she saw the marks all over her neck in the mirror, her heart raced!
