Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover by Rosa Winters

Chapter 470

"Mr. Neil probably thought of his own lost daughter while holding Chloe, feeling a mix of joy and sorrow," Jacob

mused, his eyes drifting off as he recalled the moment. "Holding Chloe, Neil remarked, 'If my daughter hadn't

passed away, she'd probably look just like this. This child is the spitting image of the daughter | imagined."

"In that moment, he likely saw Chloe as his own. Before leaving, he gifted her a priceless pink emerald pendant,

telling her to reach out if she ever faced any trouble."

Leah's eyes widened in surprise. She'd only known that Chloe received a precious gem at birth, assuming it was

a gift from one of Jacob's business partners. She never imagined such an extraordinary tale behind it.

Jacob snapped back to the present, saying, "The Shaw family moved away years ago, and I've lost touch. But

now, with our status changed, this is a perfect chance to reconnect. Though the Sartori family won't help us

directly, we've forged a connection with them, which boosts our standing."

"With Neil back to honor his ancestors, we should have Chloe visit him, bringing the longevity locket, and ideally

be accepted as his goddaughter. Neil's reputed to be generous, so if | casually mention the Meadows family's

struggles, he might step in to help." Leah cut in, skeptical, "Things might not go as smoothly as you think. For

one, Chloe might not agree."

Jacob frowned, "That's why we need a plan. If she's truly against it, we can visit him ourselves. But after all these

years, Neil might not recognize me. Bringing the emerald pendant could help."

Jacob sighed, "I recently talked to Gordon, who said they'd already given the pendant to Chloe. We need to find a

way to bring it up with her and ideally get it back."

Leah scoffed, "Don't count on it. Chloe's not one to go along with your schemes. You know she's always been

principled and straightforward, not one for flattery."

"Why are you saying this now? Do you think I don't know her character? I'm just trying to get you to help come

up with a solution."

"Anyway, this is on you now.

Whether you persuade Chloe to connect with the Shaw family or

retrieve the pendant, Leah, remember, Belle Epoque wasn't my creation; it's your family's legacy. I've put my

heart into preserving it for you, and at crucial times like this, you need to step up."

Leah pondered, realizing the weight of his words Belle Epoque was indeed her father's creation, a brand built to

win over her mother, a high-society lady. Yet, he still ended up with Ann's mother, leaving her own mother

heartbroken. Her feelings for the brand were complicated, mostly tied to her mother's suffering.

"Alright, | get it. I'll think of something," Leah replied, not fully committing.

Oooo

Jacob's face lit up, mistaking her response for agreement. "Leah, this is also a chance for you and Chloe to mend

ferices. You've always talked about the strong bond you. two had. I can tell she still cares for you deeply. If you

can resolve the past, our family can be whole again. Who in Riverbrook could stand against us then?"
