Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover



Lisa agreed without hesitation, "Alright, Chloe. I promise."

Chloe laid down the rule, "You can't search it, and you definitely can't touch my purse. Let someone else handle it."NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Lisa chuckled to herself. Chloe was being extra cautious. She probably thought Lisa might try to sneak the jewelry into her purse during the search. What Chloe didn't know was that the rose brooch was already in there. Lisa felt even more certain that Chloe was clueless about the brooch.

"Then let the host do the honors," Lisa suggested.

David stepped up, picking up Chloe's purse. He opened it and started rummaging through it. Despite his thorough search, he found nothing. At first, Lisa wore a smug smile, but as David continued to come up empty-handed, panic started creeping in.

David looked up and announced, "There's no rose brooch in Mrs. Sartori's purse."

Lisa was stunned. This couldn't be right. She had put it there herself and had been watching Chloe closely. Since Chloe came back, she hadn't even touched her purse. The brooch had to be inside.

Lisa quickly moved forward, grabbed Chloe's purse, and emptied its contents onto the floor. There was barely anything—just Chloe's phone and some makeup. No brooch. Lisa couldn't believe it. She frantically checked every compartment, almost wanting to dive inside the purse herself, but the brooch was nowhere to be found.

How could this happen? Why was it happening? Frustrated, Lisa pointed accusingly at Chloe, her anger evident. "Chloe, where have you hidden my rose brooch?"

She pressed on, "You must've stashed it somewhere else. Admit it, Chloe, you hid it!"

Instead of pinning the blame on

Chloe, Lisa found herself without the brooch entirely. It wasn't worth fifty million, but a good twenty million, which was still a hefty sum. Not only е did she fail to tarnish Chloe's. reputation, but now the brooch was missing too. Today was turning out to be a complete loss for her.

Lisa was convinced Chloe had discovered the brooch and hidden it elsewhere. Now, it seemed like Chloe had genuinely taken it.

Connor and Grant both stood up at nearly the same moment. They exchanged a glance, and Grant took a step back, letting Connor take the lead.

"Lisa, maybe it's time we called the

police. Let them sort this out. There are plenty of cameras around here, and I doubt anything could escape their notice," Connor suggested.

Grant added icily, "Call the police."

Lisa's anxiety spiked. Even though she had done everything in the restroom, where she believed there were no cameras, the mere mention of the police made her nervous past experience in detention and the O weight of knowing she was

Her

responsible for two lives didn't help.

Just then, a waiter hurried over, holding a tray, and on it lay the missing rose brooch.

"Mr. Grant, we found Ms. Chloe's rose brooch," he announced.

Every eye turned to the waiter. The rose brooch sat on the tray, still damp from its hiding place.

Grant's voice was cool, "Where was it found?"

The waiter, catching his breath, replied, "In the toilet! The cleaning staff discovered it."
