Snatched A Billionaire To Be My Husband by Shabi's pen

Chapter 245 Moonlit Gully

Byron’s voice was neither loud nor low, yet it carried an undeniable aura of authority, capturing

everyone’s attention in the room.

Byron’s gaze shifted from Cora to Chloe.

It seemed Byron had already guessed that Cora was here to catch someone in the act.

Byron thought of how Cora had fiercely defended the two-timing scoundrel in the past, belittling him

and making him feel worthless. Byron had indeed inclined to turn a blind

eye.

However, Chloe’s relentless provocations and Lucas’ passivity made Byron reconsider his stance.

He couldn’t bear to see Cora isolated and mistreated

anymore.

Byron decided to intervene. He couldn’t help but feel that Cora deserved better treatment. As he spoke

up in her defense, Jane couldn’t help but notice that his emotions towards Cora seemed far from

resolved.

Jane even began to suspect that if Cora and Lucas broke up today, Byron would attempt to rekindle his

relationship with her the next day.

The thought shattered Jane’s good feelings and left her feeling restless…

Chloe was surprised when she realized that apart from Lucas, someone was willing to stand up for

Cora.

What caught Chloe off guard was the extraordinary aura and demeanor of the man. It was rare for

someone with such remarkable qualities within the prestigious Kinton community.

Despite acknowledging this person’s excellence, Chloe was determined not to let Byron disrupt her

plans.

“We have many talented individuals in our Calligraphy Association, but it’s only because Dr. Lane and

Mrs. Emily Quinn’s son are close that I wanted to test her,” Chloe continued to pursue her objective.

“Is it to test her for someone else’s sake, or is it just a means to achieve your personal goals? I believe

anyone with a clear vision can see through it.”

Byron went straight to the point, risking offending the

powerful Hurst family in Kinton without showing any regard for Chloe’s feelings.

quickly found a counterattack. “Mr. Hansen, are you so

protective of Dr. Lane because you have some hidden feelings

for her?”

Byron’s eyes simmered with anger, and there was a hint of an impending outburst.

Jane sensed that Byron was on the verge of losing his temper, and his seemingly calm demeanor now

had a touch of

ferocity.

At this moment, Jane was genuinely concerned that Byron might go to extreme lengths and publicly

reveal their relationship to retaliate against Cora.

Lucas was also feeling a bit panicked. He was grateful that his arch-nemesis, Byron, had stepped in to

help Cora at this

critical moment.

However, Lucas knew that if Byron exposed his relationship with Cora, it would only make their delicate

situation even more precarious.

To everyone’s surprise, Cora seemed even less willing to let Byron reveal their past.

So after a long silence, Cora suddenly spoke up, saying, “If Ms.

Chapter 245 Moonlit Gully

Hurst wishes to see me make a fool of myself, then so be it!”

“Cora, don’t fall into her trap.” Lucas quickly realized and tried

to stop Cora.

Byron had finally managed to turn the situation around, and he didn’t want Cora to embarrass herself

on stage.

However, Cora faced Lucas with determination and said, “You

still don’t understand me. I never shy away from challenges. I

won’t just avoid them.”

Her eyes were bright and full of determination, no longer the shy gaze she had shared with Lucas

before.

Lucas felt uneasy witnessing the calmness in Cora’s eyes as

they drifted away from him and settled on Byron.

In a previous encounter, Byron had well-meaningly informed Cora about L cas ‘s infidelity, but her

response was far from appreciative as she confronted Byron about it. Nevertheless, despite the tense

circumstances, Byron found it within himself to lend a helping hand to Cora.

Cora was full of gratitude, yet she remained composed and

restrained.

But Cora also knew that the more Byron supported her, the more she had to protect him from the

exposure of their

unsavory past. Revealing their previous connection could jeopardize Byron’s relationship with Jane and

his position in

the Hansen family.

Cora smiled at Byron. She broke free from Lu as’ s grip and

confidently went up on stage.

A frown creased Byron’s forehead into a tight knot as he watched Cora walking to the stage.

Observing the subtle exchange of glances between the two, Jane narrowed her eyes slightly.

“Please prepare pen and paper for Dr. Lane,” Chloe requested as she saw Cora take the stage, feeling

her plan was already halfway successful.

However, Cora surprised everyone when she spoke up. She demanded, “Prepare two sets, please.”

Chloe couldn’t help but frown. “Is Dr. Lane planning to showcase ambidextrous calligraphy?”

“What’s wrong with that?” Cora met Chloe’s gaze with determination.

“Ambidextrous calligraphy, a skill that many calligraphers aspire to master, writing with both hands

simultaneously. Even our Calligraphy Association’s president, Mrs. Emily Quinn, has

practiced for over ten years but has yet to demonstrate it to the public.”

Chloe was on the verge of directly asking Cora how she

gained the audacity as an outsider to showcase such a skill among experienced calligraphers in the

Calligraphy

Association.

In the audience, some members of the Calligraphy

Association were already discussing it.

“Can this woman perform ambidextrous calligraphy? It’s impossible! I’ve never seen anyone do it

exceptionally well.”

“I think she’s just showing off!”

Despite Chloe’s attempt to dissuade Cora with advice, Cora

remained firm. “Her choices are her business, not mine.”

“Very well then, please have our staff prepare two sets of pen and paper,” Chloe said, feeling that Cora

was bluffing. Since

Cora insisted, Chloe wouldn’t stop her.

Soon enough, the staff brought the requested items to Cora.

As everyone’s gaze focused on her hands, Cora held a pen in each hand and began to write

simultaneously.

She wrote in cursive with her left hand.”I cast my gaze toward

And wrote in cursive with her right hand. “Yet the moon shines

on the gutter.”

To everyone’s surprise, Cora’s pen strokes were solid and bold, completely unrestrained…

Almost everyone who witnessed this scene was amazed,

including Chloe, who was astonished.
