Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover

"Absolutely, Ms. Chloe and Ms. Ruby have that certain elegance in common. It's like fate brought them together, don't you think?"

"The Shaw family is just a stunner, aren't they? Kash and Ms. Chloe look like they were made for each other."

"If you didn't know any better, you'd swear they were related."

The crowd was alive with chatter.

Ruby watched Kash and Ms. Chloe standing side by side, and she couldn't help but notice how perfectly they fit together. Kash, with his laid-back charm, stepping up earlier was a clear sign he had a thing for Ms. Chloe. Ruby exchanged a knowing look with Neil, both already plotting.

Picking up on the vibe, Neil jokingly asked, "Mr. Jacob, your daughter is quite the catch. Is she seeing anyone? Because my son Kash, well, he's available."

Neil's direct approach left no room for guessing what he meant. The wealthy have a knack for cutting to the chase, don't they?

It was obvious that Mr. Neil and Ms. Ruby were eyeing Chloe as a potential daughter-in-law.

Jacob caught on, though he couldn't hide his awkwardness.

Lisa couldn't resist chiming in, "Chloe's already hitched, twice actually. She's a married woman now."

And almost under her breath, she added, "I'm still single though..."

The crowd ignored her, treating her like she was just making noise.

Ruby and Neil acted as if they hadn't heard a word she said.

Jacob shot Lisa a look before clarifying, "My daughter is indeed married, and her husband, you might know him, is Connor from the Sartori family in Eldridge City." "Connor?" Ruby's eyebrows shot up. "Claire's brother?"

Jacob nodded, confirming it.

Ruby's face showed a hint of concern, "The Sartori family, huh..."

The Sartori family was known for its complications, a real tangled web.

Ruby looked at Chloe with a mix of sympathy and regret.

Neil chuckled, "Seems like the Shaw family is always a beat behind the Sartori family."

Ruby gave a knowing smile.

Turning to Chloe, she said, "Let's just call you Chloe, alright? Honestly, Neil and I were smitten with you from the get-go. We've got four sons, e with their quirks-surely one would've been your type. But since you're already spoken for, they really missed the boat."

Chloe was surprised by Ruby's candidness.

Without missing a beat, she suggested, "How about you become my goddaughter then?"

Chloe was taken aback, her idol always had a way of throwing her for a loop.

Ruby held Chloe's hand tight, not wanting to let go. Sensing Chloe's hesitation, she gently coaxed her, "You see, we're meant to be connected, right? You know Kash, and I saved you once when you were little. My husband even held you

In that moment, Chloe felt a wave of mixed emotions.

Ruby was her idol, the guiding star she had admired for so many years.
