Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover



Cassie exuded confidence, her lips curling into a playful, almost mischievous smile. She drew a slim cigarette from her blazer pocket, spinning her lighter with a flair that was both rebellious and irresistibly charming. This little act captured the attention of a group of young women at the next table, one of whom let out a squeal. Cassie arched an eyebrow at them, teasingly, making them blush and duck their heads like shy little quails.

Turning back, Cassie lit her cigarette with a cheeky grin. Chloe, however, quickly snatched it away. "You really should cut back, it's not good for you," she advised. Cassie, craving a smoke, clung to Chloe's arm, pleading, "Just one, please, just one?"

Chloe waved her off, handing her a piece of lettuce instead. "More veggies, less smokes-better for you," she quipped. Cassie ran a hand through her hair in frustration. Chloe, calm as ever, added, "If you quit smoking, I'll get you a Lamborghini Veneno."

The Gilbert family was well-known for their luxury car empire, and Cassie was a bona fide car enthusiast. Any cash she had, she sunk into her car collection. But the Veneno wasn't just any car-it was a global limited edition, a true collector's gem. Cassie's eyes widened in surprise, "You can get that car?"

"I don't have it, but I can get one," Chloe replied. Three years back, a friend had reserved one as a birthday gift for her, but Chloe had turned it down. The car was still sitting in her friend's garage, and they'd recently asked Chloe to take it, complaining about space. Chloe had agreed, thinking it'd be the perfect gift for Cassie. Flashy sports cars weren't her thing anyway.

Cassie lit up with joy, wrapping Chloe in a hug and planting a kiss on her cheek. "I'll quit, I promise! Just get me that car, I adore you!" she exclaimed.

This display made two men at a nearby table raise their eyebrows in unison. Connor finally spoke up, "Cassie, I know you two go way back, but maybe show a bit of restraint?"

Connor knew all about Chloe and

Cassie's history. Even though Chloe had assured him Cassie was straight, preferring rugged guys, Cassie's tomboyish look and charming demeanor made others think otherwise. People were already talking, assuming Chloe was her girlfriend. It made Connora tad uneasy, especially after the whole Linda incident. Who's to say women can't fall for women?

Cassie leaned back in her chair, crossing her legs and casually draping an arm over Chloe's seat. With a carefree attitude, she said, "Boundaries? Chloe and I have been inseparable since we were kids Connor. If Chloe hadn't chosen you, she'd be with me for life. So don't talk to me about boundaries after you've claimed my girl. If you ever hurt Chloe, I won't let it slide." This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Connor chuckled, conceding, "Alright, alright, you two are like sisters, my bad." He wasn't really

upset with Cassie. He trusted heret

knowing her loud exterior hid a heart full of genuine care for Chloe. Their bond was pure sisterhood, unlike what had happened with Linda. He'd just been kidding around.

But Winston, who'd been listening in, seemed visibly more concerned.
