Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover
Chapter 712

Claire let out a dry, sarcastic chuckle. "After all these years, this is the first time she's come looking for me. Looks like this little rabbit's finally grown some fangs. Let her in."

A few minutes later, Diana rolled in on a wheelchair. Claire was still lounging, mid-facial, not even bothering to open her eyes, but her words carried a certain weight. "Diana, you've gotten pretty gutsy, haven't you?"

Deep down, Diana was terrified. This youthful-looking woman had haunted her nightmares for years. But this was the first time Diana had stepped up to face her. Despite her inner tremors, she kept a calm facade. "I'm a cripple now; what more do I have to fear? I don't even care about my own life anymore, so why worry about anything else?"

Claire finally opened her eyes, giving Diana a sidelong glance. "So, what brings you here today?"

Diana took a deep breath. "I know I'm just a toy compared to Connor, so I don't mean much to you. Ms. Claire, your real target is Connor, and I'm here to help. I'm ready to be the sword that takes him down, a tool, a pawn-whatever you need. Just say the word, and I'm all in."

Claire let out a genuine laugh, her mind drifting to Chloe. Chloe had boldly declared she'd never be anyone's pawn. The last time they met, she insisted on being a player, not just a piece in the game. Claire knew both women loved Connor deeply, yet their paths were so different. She couldn't help but admire Chloe's resolve more.

"To completely destroy Connor, can you really go through with it?" Claire asked.

Diana's eyes wavered with doubt but quickly hardened with anger. "He used me from start to finish. He wrecked my life. How can they be happy while I'm in misery? If there's going to be pain, let's all share it."

Claire smirked, almost dismissively. "And what exactly do you want out of this?"

Diana's voice was steely. "I want them to split up. And I want Chloe to lose a leg."

Just then, Claire's assistant bustled in, looking flustered, a phone in hand. "Vice President, we have a situation."

"What's got you all riled up?" Claire had been holding in her frustration all day. Connor's new position as the head of Sartori Corporation had been a thorn in her side. Though she remained Vice President, wielding significant influence, the tension was palpable. She was curious to see how long Connor could maintain his grip.

"What's the fuss about now?"

"Something big's happened!" The assistant was visibly shaken.

"What is it?" Claire's patience was thinning.

The assistant handed over a tablet, her hands trembling. "The new

Vice President."

Claire bolted upright, grabbing the tablet. The news was splashed across the financial channels. "Following her appointment as the new Ms. Claire of Sartori Corporation, an emergency shareholders' meeting was called, resulting in three major decisions: first, Claire's dismissal as Vice President; second, the séparation of Sartori Corporation from Eldridge Entertainment; third, the full endorsement of the Dream Al Project, spearheaded by CNR..."
