Chapter 271 Chloe shook her head with a smirk. "Do you really think I'm the type to get taken advantage of?" Cassie, with a playful grin, tipped Chloe's chin up. "Right, my friend, you can take on the world. You're not afraid of thugs, so why would you be scared of spampered rich kid?" The sarcasm in Cassie's voice was unmistakable.

Connor didn't react with anger. Instead, his eyes stayed fixed on Cassie's hand resting on Chloe's shoulder. The way she lifted Chloe's chin was just like how Chloe used to tease him, scratching his chin like he was a puppy.

Connor's brows furrowed, his expression growing colder by the second.

"Chloe..." A clear, cheerful voice called out from not far away. Chloe turned to see someone jogging toward her. It was Pax.

i Pax had been caught off guard when the power went out, ruining his plans. After the power was restored, Chloe was nowhere to be found. Just as disappointment started to settle in and he was about to leave, he changed into fresh clothes and spotted Chloe coming back.

Bursting with joy, Pax dashed towards her. But when he saw Connor standing beside Chloe, his steps slowed. A flicker of confusion crossed his face. Soon, Pax was right in front of Chloe. "Chloe, where'd you go? I've been looking all over for you," he said, trying hard to ignore Connor's presence. An uneasy feeling gnawed at him. Did Chloe and Connor already know each other? Chloe stayed calm. "I ran into an old friend, and we went out for a chat," she explained. Then, she turned to Pax and made the introductions on purpose. "Pax, this is my friend, Mr. Connor, CEO of CNR." Pax felt his heart sink. He hadn't expected Chloe to actually be friends with his uncle. What was he supposed to do now? If he pretended not to know Connor and greeted him, would Connor play along? Before Pax could cup with a plan, Connor spoke up calmly. "Pax, aren't you going to introduceto Ms. Chloe?" Chloe was just as surprised to hear Connor address Pax directly. This meant Connor and Pax knew each other and were clearly more than just acquaintances.

Pax realized he couldn't keep his identity under wraps any longer. He had never intended to deceive Chloe, but his unique identity made him cautious. Over the years, he'd gotten used to concealing his identity to make genuine connections After learning that she disliked rich guys, he was even more hesitant to cclean.

For days, he had been torn, contemplating his next move. He had planned to confess his feelings and then reveal his true identity. But now, it seemed he had run out of options.

"Chloe, this is actually my uncle," Pax finally said.

Uncle?

Chloe felt like she had been struck by lightning. She had suspected that Pax might be related to Connor in. male sway maybe a friend or a distant relative-but she had never imagined them to have such a close connection.

Chloe wasn't familiar with the ins and outs of the Sartori family. She knew Connor had three older sisters and that his relationship with his eldest sister, Claire, was particularly bad. Beyond that, she knew very little and had never pried.

Since Pax called Connor "uncle," it meant Pax was the son of one of Connor's sisters. But which one? At that moment, Cassie, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up.

"You're Pax? My cousin Pax?" Ashburn X
