Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 562

"And besides, after everything they did to you, I don't want to plan a wedding for a betrayer and a backstabber."

Chloe got it. "Godmother, you're worried this might upset me, right?"

Tara paused, then looked up. Chloe knew Tara inside out after all these years. Tara had always treated her like her own, maybe even better than her own son. Now, with Lucas and Linda having their marriage license, they were officially married. Tara hadn't stirred up trouble before, so her sudden opposition to the wedding planning had to mean something.

Everyone in Riverbrook's high society already knew about Lucas and her. It had been a sore spot for years; it didn’t make sense for her to be bothered now.

Tara felt Chloe had seen right through her thoughts. "I really don’t want to, and I feel indignant for you. But Linda keeps using her pregnancy as leverage, threatening to end it if there's no wedding. I don’t care much for it, but now, at eight months, it’s nearly a full life, part of the Moncada bloodline. I can’t just ignore that..."

"But I'm worried that holding a wedding for them might make you resent me and the Moncada family, like with the Meadows family."

Tara was on the verge of tears. "I truly see you as my own daughter. If this makes you resent me, I can't bear the thought."

Hearing this, Tara felt much better. "You don’t come by often, stay for dinner tonight."

"Don’t worry, it’ll just be us and your grandparents. Lucas took Linda to a business cocktail party, and they won’t be back before ten."

Chloe wasn't worried about bumping into Lucas and Linda. She nodded calmly, "Okay."
