Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 686

Claire had shown no signs of stepping in to defend her, but Reyna wasn’t about to throw in the towel just yet. As she turned, she spotted Chloe standing behind Connor. Wasting no time, Reyna sidled up to Chloe.

"Ms. Chloe, you're the real lady of Sartori Corporation. Can you honestly let someone who's clearly after Mr. Connor hang around the company? Maybe you’re not aware of what’s really going on between Diana and Mr. Connor..."

Chloe met Reyna's gaze with an innocent look, speaking sincerely, "I’m aware, I know everything."

Realizing she had crossed Diana, Reyna figured she needed a new ally, and who better than Chloe? Maybe this lady would rise to the occasion. If Chloe took a stand against Diana, she'd likely back Reyna. But why wasn’t there even a hint of jealousy on Chloe’s face? Didn’t Mr. Connor’s knight-in-shining-armor act bother her at all?

"Aren’t you worried Diana might still have feelings for Mr. Connor?" Reyna pressed.

"Mr. Connor transferring 5% of his shares to Diana is pretty significant, don’t you think? Her role in the company now trumps yours, not to mention the massive yearly dividends. Are you really okay with being outshone by your husband's ex?"

Chloe gave a calm smile, "Actually, I've got 5% of Sartori Corporation's shares myself."

Reyna and the onlookers were taken aback.

Diana yanked her arm away, looking thoroughly disgusted, "You fair-weather folks should pack up and leave town by tomorrow, or I’ll make sure there's no place for you here."

Terrified, Reyna dropped to the floor.

Claire left with a smirk, like she’d just watched a good show. The crowd slowly dispersed. Security escorted Reyna out, leaving only Chloe, Connor, and Diana in the center of the now-empty banquet hall.

Diana sat in her wheelchair, resting her hands on her lap, and looked up at Connor, "Uncle Connor, it’s been a while."
