Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 474

Lisa exploded with anger, "Chloe, you've got some nerve! That emerald pendant is a Meadows family heirloom. What gives you the right to keep it? Have you no shame? Just so you know, our parents came by today specifically to ask me to get the pendant back. If you don't return it, you might as well never come back to the Meadows family."

Chloe gave a soft smile, "Well, that works out perfectly. Send them my best wishes for good health."

Lisa was fuming, amazed at Chloe's lack of fear about being cut off from the family. But then again, it made sense. Times had changed, and she was now engaged to Connor. Why would she care about the Meadows family anymore?

Out of options, Lisa threatened, "Chloe, I'm going to sue you. This is outright theft."

Chloe chuckled, "Go ahead, I'll be waiting for your lawsuit."

Chloe's calm demeanor drove Lisa up the wall. If she didn't know Chloe could handle herself, she would have slapped her ages ago. But now, all she could do was shake with rage.

Ann stepped in. Though she wasn't sure what the fight was about, she knew it was over something valuable.

"Sweetheart, if it's someone else's, just let it go. If you really like it, I can get you one," Ann said, knowing Lisa's nature all too well. Ever since she was little, Lisa wanted what others had, and Ann always tried to accommodate her within reason. But it never seemed enough; Lisa's cravings only grew.

Ann's words only fueled Lisa's frustration. She snapped back, "Do you even know what you're talking about? Can you afford a jewel worth millions?"

Lisa watched from the balcony as Chloe's car drove away from the complex, then stealthily slipped into Chloe's room. Ann was still busy in the kitchen and hadn’t noticed anything. She hadn't locked Chloe's door yet, making it easy for Lisa to get in.

Inside, Lisa rummaged through everything. What was Chloe hiding?

Soon, Lisa stumbled upon a beautifully crafted sandalwood box at the bottom of Chloe's vanity. It was so exquisite, it had to hold something special. Eagerly, Lisa opened it.

Her eyes lit up with greed. The emerald pendant! It was the pink emerald pendant she had been after all along! It felt like she had stumbled upon a hidden treasure without any effort at all. Lisa couldn't help but laugh triumphantly.
