Chapter 240 Pax's school was indeed organizing a study trip to Italy, but Connor found it hard to believe. "What are the odds?" he muttered, closing his laptop and rubbing the bridge of his nose. "What brings you here?" he asked, noticing Teddy's unexpected visit during lunch break.

"Miss Diana was looking for you. She called, but you didn't pick up, so she reached out toinstead." Teddy explained.

Connor glanced at his phone and saw the two missed calls. "Got it. You can go now," he said, motioning for Teddy to leave. Once alone, he dialed Diana back.

"Hey, what's up?" he greeted, his voice calm and gentle as always.

"Uncle Connor, I need to tell you something. Please don't be mad," Diana's voice held a hint of worry.

"What is it? Just tell me. I promise I won't get mad," he reassured her, his tone still soothing.

"I don't want to go to Hollywood," she confessed.

"If you don't want to go, then don't," Connor replied casually.

Diana sighed in relief. "I thought you'd be upset since you went through all that trouble for me. I didn't want to disappoint you." Connor chuckled softly. "Silly girl, I thought it would be a great opportunity for you. But if you're not into it, that's fine. Your happiness matters most to me. I'll never force you to do something you don't want to." "Thank you, Uncle Connor. You're the best," Diana's voice brightened with gratitude. "Oh, and can I join another company's variety show? It's Ruben's new show, and I think it's going to be amazing." "Ruben? The king of variety shows? If he's behind it, it's bound to be a hit. Go for it," Connor encouraged her. "But how cI didn't know he was working on a new show? What's it about?" Connor usually kept a close eye on Diana's career, mainly to shield her from Claire, who controlled a significant portion of the entertainment industry's resol and could easily pull Diana into her sphere of influence.

"Uncle Connor, let's keep it a surprise for now," Diana teased.

Connor was still preoccupied with thoughts of Chloe and the recent encounter with the model, so he didn't press further. After hanging up, he returned to his desk, his eyes drifting to a photo frame. Inside was a picture of a little girl, around four years old.

He recalled the first tChloe saw the photo and asked if the girl was his daughter. He couldn't help but laugh and feel a bit annoyed. How could she not recognize herself at five? The memory took him back to when

he first met Chloe. She was five, and he was ten, at Eldridge Hospital, near Snow River. The river was fenced off, apd patients often took walks along its banks during the day But that night, the place was deserted except for a small, lonely figure.

Ten-year-old Connor had stood by the river for a long tbefore om climbing over the fexce. Just as he was about to jump, a tiny voice called out, "Hey, are you planning to jump into the river?" Ashburn He looked up to see a little girl with pigtails, sitting on a tree by the river, sucking on a lollipop.
