Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover

Their lives went on this way until Linda came between them.

Ironically, Chloe herself had nudged Lucas towards Linda. Linda was their high school classmate. She came from a modest background and was naturally timid, but her grades were excellent. As the only scholarship student at their prestigious school, Linda was like a gentle rabbit thrown among wolves and was often bullied by privileged kids.

Chloe had always stood up for her, even getting into fights to protect her. They became best friends and later ended up at the same university. Being Chloe's high school "bestie," Linda also got to know Lucas well. But back then, there were no sparks between them.

During their sophomore year summer, Chloe and Lucas signed up for a university-organized camp. Just before the trip, Chloe sprained her ankle and gave her spot to Linda. Lucas didn't want to go without Chloe, but she insisted he go, worried that Linda would be bullied without her presence. So, Lucas went to look after Linda. And that led to something more.

That summer, Chloe faced the toughest time of her life. Her half-sister Lisa had returned to the family. At Chloe's lowest point, Lucas broke up with her, saying he wanted to be with Linda. Chloe couldn't handle the back-to-back blows. She tried to end her life but survived, leading to unexpected turns.

Lucas’ parents, Antonio and Tara, who had always seen her as their future daughter-in-law, were heartbroken. His grandfather Joshua, leveraging family shares, forced Lucas to marry Chloe. But less than two months later, Lucas applied for an exchange program at Yale and left for the States, taking Linda with him.

Three years flew by...

Soon, Chloe's car pulled up outside the airport. Her thoughts snapped back to the present. Joshua had asked her to pick up Lucas today. Chloe checked her watch—perfect timing.

Looking up, she saw Lucas pushing his luggage trolley, walking out from the terminal. He’s dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, his handsome features and graceful demeanor exuding the elegance of someone from a distinguished family. His usually gentle face hardened when he saw Chloe.

Chloe smiled, opened the car door, and walked towards him. "Hey hubby, long time no see. How’s it going?"

Her voice was melodious and inviting, with a touch of playful seductiveness that was hard to resist. Even passersby couldn't help but steal glances, envying the man she greeted.

Lucas' frown deepened. Chloe looked stunning today as if she had dressed up just for him. She looked different from three years ago. Back then, without makeup, she was like the cute girl next door. Now, with flawless makeup and soft waves in her hair, dressed in designer clothes, she exuded a lazy luxury. NôvelDrama.Org content.

"Don't call me that," Lucas' voice was icy.

He glanced at the woman in white beside him. Chloe had noticed her before getting out of the car. Linda had returned with him. Dressed in a loose, white cotton dress, Linda wore no makeup, but her petite face and naturally shy, innocent eyes were still incredibly touching.

Her one hand clung to Lucas' arm, and the other rested on her slightly rounded belly. The gesture was clear.

Chloe smiled and asked, "Linda, are you pregnant?"
