Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover

Chapter 837



Neil's face turned serious in an instant. "No way."

Ruby chuckled. "I'm just messing with you."

The four Shaw siblings were already used to this kind of playful teasing. Watching them, Chloe felt a warm glow inside her. The Shaw family's vibe was something special—so relaxed and full of warmth. Ruby's playful nature was in stark contrast to Neil's straight-laced persona, yet their love tied it all together seamlessly.

Tomorrow, Chloe would be leaving this cozy place to get married. Leah and Ann were crashing here for the night too. Witnessing the Shaw family's dynamic, they couldn't help but feel a mix of envy and a little heartache.

"Look, it's snowing!" Wayne suddenly pointed out the window.

Everyone turned to look through the large windows, where snowflakes drifted down, glowing under the yard lights like tiny fairies dancing through the air. The snow was coming down hard, and by the time dinner was over, it had stopped, leaving a fluffy blanket on the ground.

Wayne couldn't resist the call of the snow, and he dashed outside to build a snowman. Soon, all four brothers were in on it, with Chloe lending a hand too. Midway through, the brothers kicked off a snowball fight, and soon snowballs were flying everywhere in the yard.

Chloe watched from a swing under a big oak tree, not joining the fray but soaking up the joyful chaos. It was a scene she'd never experienced but felt oddly familiar, like something out of a dream. Watching them, an unexpected joy surged within her. The Shaw family was truly something special.

Ruby stood under the eaves,

watching her sons play in the snow. They looked genuinely happy. Even Kash, the usually composed one, was hurling snowballs like there was no tomorrow. With his military background, his throws were precise and relentless. The other three tried forming a team, but even they

couldn't withstand his snowball barrage.

Chloe laughed heartily as Wayne took a tumble three times in a row. Watching this, Ruby felt as if she was transported back in time to when the boys were little. She always loved seeing her sons-play, but the happier the moment,

The

more a certain emptiness gnawed at her heart.

She knew exactly why. Her daughter, whom she only knew as a name on a cold gravestone. She had carried her for ten months, with all the hope and dreams that came with it, only for it to end without ever seeing her face. It was a wound that never fully healed.

Even though she thought she had come to terms with her loss, the pain lingered, like a perpetual rainy, season in her heart. Even on sunny days, it could still rain inside her. But now, watching this scene, it felt like the clouds were finally parting. A sense of near-completion washed over her, yet it was tinged with guilt.

Why did she always picture Chloe as the daughter she never got to know? She shouldn't forget, shouldn't feel this sense of wholeness. She adored Chloe, but she shouldn't let her fill that void entirely.noveldrama

Ruby's thoughts were a jumble of emotions. Neil stepped out from the house, gently draping a thick coat over Ruby's shoulders. "It's chilly out here. Let's head inside."

Ruby's eyes lingered on Chloe. Suddenly, she spoke up, "Don't you think Chloe resembles the brothers a bit?"

The thought had just popped into Ruby's head. She'd never noticed it before, or maybe she'd just never thought to look. But now, with Chloe and the four brothers all together...
