Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover

Chapter 419

Diana always thought that as long as Uncle Connor was alive, she could handle anything. Just knowing he existed somewhere in the world was enough, even if she never saw him again or they had no relationship at all. When she saw him passionately kissing someone else, she realized she couldn't handle it.

She believed no one could love Uncle Connor more than she did, so why didn’t he choose her? Anger, sadness, grief, pain, and resentment twisted inside her like a venomous snake, hissing and coiling around her heart.

When Claire found out that Connor was still alive, her emotions were all over the place. She had wished for his death every single day, desperate for him to disappear from the world as if he had never existed, leaving no trace behind. Still, when she was told his helicopter had been swallowed by the sea, with no chance of survival, she was stunned. It was like a piece of her heart had suddenly been ripped out. For years, she had poured all her pain and hatred onto Connor, believing he was the root of her suffering. She had grown used to living with that pain, but with his sudden disappearance, it felt like a part of her had been cruelly cut away.

Claire spent the next few days at the grand theater, watching plays after plays. The actors' singing was melodious yet full of sorrow, resonating with an underlying sadness.

Just then, the butler approached Claire with a calm demeanor and whispered in her ear, "Madam, he has been found. Mr. Connor is not dead."

Claire’s face remained expressionless as she waved him away, and the butler tactfully withdrew. Watching the young actor portraying the orphan, singing with a voice full of sorrow, Claire was suddenly reminded of Connor's childhood. This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

He was particularly fond of her when he was around four or five years old, always trailing behind her whenever she visited the family estate. She found him incredibly annoying, often scolding and

shooing him away, yet he would just smile at her. "You haven’t visited in a long time. I’ve missed you," or "This mooncake is delicious. I saved it for you," or "Are you free tomorrow? Can you take me to the amusement park?" These memories came flooding back.

The only time Claire took Connor to the amusement park, she ended up abandoning him there from morning until night. When the Sartori family found out, they were frantic with worry but couldn’t find him. She was punished severely by Jeffery, forced to kneel in the room for days. Two days later, Connor returned on his own, looking like a little beggar with his clothes torn, body bruised, shoes lost, and feet bloodied.
