Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover
Chapter 681

Chloe was stepping into the dazzling world of Sartori Corporation's annual gala for the first time. The event unfolded in the grand ballroom perched atop the Sartori Tower. If she hadn't been clued in beforehand, she might have mistaken it for a star-studded awards show. A striking red carpet, a hundred meters long, welcomed guests at the tower's entrance. Cars would glide to a halt at the carpet's edge, where attendees were expected to strut down its length, pausing for quick interviews and autographs at the entrance. The setup mirrored the glitzy routine of a Hollywood night.

Lined along the red carpet were countless cameras, manned by media folks who'd been camped out all day, eager to capture every moment. This wasn't just any event; it was the Sartori Corporation gala, the hottest ticket in town where the entertainment industry's crème de la crème made their appearances.

Eldridge Entertainment, a powerhouse in the talent world, had its biggest stars under its wing, and half of the A-list celebs were part of its roster. Even those who had reached the summit of fame still saw an invite to this gala as the ultimate accolade.

Chloe and Connor made their grand entrance in a sleek black Bentley. The car paused at the red carpet, and a doorman, white gloves and all, swung open the door. Chloe stepped out, radiant in a gown that seemed to capture the midnight sky in its fabric. Her hair tumbled over her shoulders in soft curls, adorned only by a sapphire hairpin, yet she managed to outshine the bejeweled stars around her, exuding a kind of natural glamour that needed no embellishment.

With her arm elegantly looped through Connor's, Chloe moved with a grace that was both relaxed and polished, her presence turning heads. As she hit the red carpet, it felt like the surrounding camera flashes dimmed, all lenses drawn irresistibly to her. Several media outlets were streaming live, capturing the buzz.

"Chloe is stunning, she's stealing the show!"

"Whose fairy tale book left the page open? The princess has escaped!"

"Chloe, you're too gorgeous! Every shot of you is flawless."

"Poor Connor, even though he's devilishly handsome, he's in Chloe's shadow tonight."

Before long, the couple reached the check-in desk for a brief interview. The hosts, Nora and Jason, were the most renowned duo in the biz.

Jason quipped, "If I'm not mistaken, this is the first time Mr. Connor has brought a plus-one to the Sartori gala."

Connor's lips curved into a knowing grin as he took the mic, casually dropping a bombshell. "She's not my date; she's my wife."

Nora and Jason exchanged looks of surprise, with Nora unable to contain her curiosity, "Wait, are you two married already?" Connor then smoothly pulled out two marriage certificates from his jacket, his tone carrying a touch of pride, "Legal and official."

Nora chimed in, "But a heartbreak for all the hopefuls in Eldridge City. Tonight, many dreams and crushes are meeting their end."

The public only knew Connor had announced Chloe as his girlfriend. Many were skeptical about their relationship. Despite Mr. Connor's eye-popping proposal on TV, things had gone quiet since then, fueting rumors of family opposition
