Loved You Once But He's My Forever

Billionaire Is 155 Chapter 155 You Lost This Round Chapter 155 You Lost This Round +5 Free Coins Hearing those words from the person she loved most must have been unbearable. I could empathize with that pain all too well.

Anna must have felt heartbroken now no matter what her intentions were in getting close to Luke.

After all, the tthey spent together over the years was real and their love had been genuine.

She was carrying Luke's child, yet the child's father was treating her with such cold indifference. How could Anna not feel devastated? Carter's voice was void of emotion as he declared, "Since that's the case, this matter is settled." Kate's face was filled with indignation. "Anna and Mr. Ashley have no emotional foundation! Besides... her health is not good. I won't agree with this marriage!" She held back the fact that Anna was pregnant, knowing it would only make the situation more humiliating.

Especially now that Luke and Alisa's marriage was already disastrous.

decided, revealing Anna's pregnancy be Melissa, having had sdealings with Kate before, spoke gently as one woman to another. "Kate, this is just a temporary solution. You know how important reputation is for families like ours. If they were already a couple, their behavior last night could be explained away. This marriage is just to quiet the rumors. Once the gossip dies down, they can divorce." "Marriage and divorce aren't trivial matters!" Kate snapped. "Do you even care about Anna's reputation? Once she's divorced, she'll be labeled as a divorcee. How will she ever find another husband?" Melissa muttered under her breath, "It's not like she'll find one now. After what happened last night, who would dare marry her? We had no choice but to step in- "What did you just say?" Kate's anger flared.

Although Anna's actions were under the influence of drugs, no one else would see it that way. Her reputation was already ruined.

Melissa wasn't wrong, but no one wanted to admit it.

"Enough," Anthony interjected. "Even if it's just for reputation, the Hudsons won't treat her unfairly. We'll send her the betrothal gift from our side. If you have any conditions, feel free to state them." This was music to Josh's ears. As a man driven by profit he immediately saw the value in this arrangement. Anna's reputation was beyond repair within their social circle. The wealthy families within it would never consider marrying her after witnessing her bold behavior tonight.

Marrying into the Hudsons might still allow her to gain sbenefits for the family.

"Then we'll follow local customs and host a proper wedding. Who knows, maybe the two kids will actually grow to love each other," Josh said.

1/3 Chapter 155 You Lost This Round His words drew side-eyes from those around him.

""Fine. Nyour terms The Sanders and Hudson families moved to negotiate Sadie, who had cwith Ashley, now found herself like an outsider.

She dragged Ashley outside to demand answers. Meanwhile, I glanced at Bill. Normally, he doted on Sadie more than anyone. Yet he wasn't following her out-h attention was fixated on my mom. Mom wasn't herself today either..

She was naturally a classic beauty, with elegant features that seemed untouched by time. Even as the ages, she looks no older than her early 30s, exuding a gentle and charming demeanor. Today, however, she seemed even younger, like a flower in full bloom, vibrant and refreshed.

A thought-crossed my mind.

Knowing Bill, he's usually kept busy by his mistresses to stay at their places. It had been a long tsince he and my mom had even shared the sroom. I wondered if they had been intimate last night My mom is a traditional woman, bound by the constraints of a marriage rooted in mutual benefit. I don't want her to be too deeply entangled with Bill.

Sometimes, letting go might be the better choice.

Yet, as their daughter, I dare not interfere lightly with their relationship.

Feeling parched, I went to grab sfruit.

As I moved away. I spotted Anna pestering Luke nearby.

Luke's expression was cold as he towered over Anna. His gaze was devoid of the affection he once held for her.

I couldn't help but sigh at the irony. Things had been so different just two months ago.

Before our wedding, Luke had barely paidany attention, spending all his twith Anna instead.

Even as our marriage loomed, he saw the ceremony as a form of compensation, believing I had trapped him with a sense of responsibility.

He wanted one last fling before settling down.

But in two short months, I had died, his love for Anna had crumbled, and now he was set to marry someone else.

It was funny how things had turned out.

His current disdain for Anna was the sexpression he once reserved for me.

"Luke, are you really going to marry that woman?" Anna asked, her voice trembling.

Luke cut her off sharply "Youre marrying into the Hudion family, and I'm marrying, Alisa. Don't bring this up again if you want to keep the 3. Don't baby, I won't stop you. If you want an abortion. I'll support it. Either way, we're done" "Luke, when did you beclike this? Anna's voice broke.

"Don't call my name. It's disgusting. Focus on building life with Ashley in the future.

With that, he walked away.

He didn't avoidwhen he saw me. Instead, his cold gaze locked onto mine. "Is this what you wanted to Everyone here knew who had orchestrated this situation. But at this point, there was no escaping it.

I smiled faintly and said, "Yes"? "Zoey, you're ruthless, You're nothing like her Then he turned and left. The warmth he once held forwas gone.

He thought he had severed all ties betweenand Chloe and got rid of his nasty thoughts.

But this time, he was wrong I am Chloe.

However, the Chloe who loved him died long ago. All that remained was my hatred for him.

When Luke was gone, Anna wiped away her tears and glared atwith undisguised malice. "You! I've never wronged you. Why are you so cruel?"

"Cruel?" I scoffed. "Ms. Sander, that's quite the joke. Did I force you to manipulate Ashley into seducing me? Did I hold a gun to your head and make you drug me? Weren't those all to ve your choices? How dare you accuse me?" "Zoey, don't think you've won. Just because you've sided with Alisa doesn't mean you're safe. She's not as innocent as she looks. Be careful she doesn't sell you out."" 1 crossed my arms and sneered.

"Oh? And who should I side with instead? You, the one who tried to ruinand get mexicked out of Boltons? Ms. Sander, here's a piece of advice for you, you reap what you sow. You lost this round."
