Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 567

Linda looked down for a moment, her silence hanging in the air before she suddenly raised her head with a smile.

"Lucas, truth is, I got duped too. When I bought it, they said it was for treating that specific issue. But when it didn't work for you over time, I looked into it and found out it did the opposite. You've been on it for a year now, and I was too afraid to tell you."

She stood up and moved closer to Lucas, her voice gentle and calming, like a soothing touch.

"Honestly, whether you're able or not doesn't matter to me. Aren't we doing just fine now? Once the baby arrives, you'll be the dad and I'll be the mom. We'll be a happy little family."

But something clicked for Lucas. No wonder, even at the height of their relationship, Linda avoided his touch. After she got pregnant, she insisted on separate bedrooms. And the baby in her belly was...

Previously, he couldn't wrap his head around Linda's actions. Now, everything was piecing together, forming a complete picture in his mind, like a lightning bolt striking him.

Lucas was suddenly hit with the truth. He couldn't believe it, his face flushed and eyes filled with a mix of anger and shock.

"Linda, you never loved me, did you? I was never your goal, right?"

It was as if a light bulb went off in Lucas's mind. He used to think, even if Linda was selfish or despicable, she loved him. She always claimed she couldn't live without him, that she'd be lost without him. But now, it was clear—it was all a lie. He was just a pawn in her twisted game.

This game was bizarre to the core. Lucas found the woman in front of him terrifying. He had once been sincere with her, betraying Chloe and his family for her. When she said she wanted to study abroad, he followed her without hesitation, despite the backlash.

No wonder Lucas often felt his heart racing, struggling to breathe, sometimes unable to sleep at all. And these symptoms weren't just during his time abroad on the medication. They persisted even now.

He had just checked the medicine bottle. Most of it was gone. It meant Linda had been secretly giving it to him. Even now, with no love left and separate living arrangements, why keep drugging him? The motive was clear—either to make him completely incapable or to plot something worse?

Linda was gasping for air.

"Let go of me, Lucas! Have you lost it?"

Lucas had indeed lost it. Years of his beliefs shattered. His world felt like it was collapsing. For Linda, he had turned his back on everyone, losing everything. Even when he discovered it was all Linda's doing, he chose to forgive her, over and over. Just because he believed Linda loved him, idolized him!
