Chapter 118
Lisa was floored.
How was Chloe Mr. Connor's girlfriend? That was just too much to swallow.
Lisa shot a glare at Chloe, jealousy nearly boiling over. She couldn't hold back and blurted out, "Mr. Connor, you must be mistaken. My sister is already married!"
In a heartbeat, Lisa had made up her mind. Chloe's good looks could easily lure Mr. Connor in, but he had no idea she was already hitched. So, Lisa decided to blow Chloe's cover without a second thought. She had to make Mr. Connor see Chloe for who she really was.
Connor didn't show the slightest bit of anger or even surprise. He casually asked, "Oh? You're saying my girlfriend has a husband? Then, care to tell me who this husband is?"
That question caught Lisa off guard. She and Linda had cooked up this entire drama, painting Chloe as the home-wrecker in Lucas and Linda's relationship. If the truth came out that Chloe and Lucas were actually married, the tables would turn instantly. Linda would be the other woman, and Lisa would be her accomplice. The Moncada family would be utterly humiliated and wouldn't let Lisa off the hook.
Lisa couldn't possibly spill the truth. Meanwhile, Linda was also on edge, watching Lisa closely, terrified she might spill the beans. Luckily, Lisa had enough sense left to keep quiet. Lucas, however, was frowning deeply, his eyes cold as they fixed on Connor's hand around Chloe's waist.
Lisa tried again, "Anyway, my sister's married. She's not as innocent as you thought to be. She has duped you. She's just a scheming, malicious bitch."
Connor's eyes turned icy, his voice dripping with a frosty chill. "You keep calling her your sister, yet every word out of your mouth slanders her see you as the one who's uneducated and malicious
Lisa trembled with rage as Connor publicly branded her. The crowd around them started whispering, and Lisa felt the weight of her embarrassment, her anger boiling over.
With a shaking voice, she retorted,

"Mr. Connor, You're powerful, but you can't slander me. Even if my sister is your girlfriend, you shouldn't ignore the facts. She pushed Linda we all saw it. Pushing a pregnant woman proves she's cold-blooded and cruel."
Connor's lips curled into a cold smile, his voice heavy with threat. "Are you sure about what you saw If not, you're slandering and framing her. Lisa, can you handle the consequences of framing my girlfriend?"
"Lisa, do you dare to swear?"

The weight of his threat pressed down on her, his cold, dagger-like eyes piercing through her. But Lisa was beyond caring. At that moment, all she wanted was to crush Chloe.
"I swear, I saw my sister pushing Linda with my own eyes. If I'm lying, our family will go bankrupt, and I will live a life of poverty and misery, never to meet a good end."
