Billionaire's match novel

Chapter 150 A faint flush colored Nick's cheeks. He quickly looked away, careful not to let Khloe see. "Have you eaten?" Khloe suddenly asked. "I have," he replied. Only then did she relax, though a twinge of guilt lingered for keeping him waiting so long. She hurried into the kitchen. "What would you like to drink? I have tea, coffee, or some special cocktails," she offered. Hearing her, Nick followed her into the kitchen. From behind, he watched her slender waist twist as she opened the fridge and cabinets, fetching one item after another. She moved with a light grace.

Seeing her tiptoe to reach something, Nick couldn't resist. He slipped his arms around her waist from behind, holding her gently. "Is this it?" He saw a few cans of sparkling water with elegant, unfamiliar labels. "Yes!" Khloe nodded. Tall as he was, Nick effortlessly lifted them and placed them within her reach. "Thank you." Khloe turned, smiling, only to realize that they were once again pressed close together. Their bodies aligned, breaths mingling in a near-kiss. "Your cabinets are quite high up," Nick murmured, his gaze dark, lingering on her lips.

Khloe's fingers rested on the sparkling water as she cleared her throat. "Yes... So, what would you like to drink?" Nick had intended to say "anything," but his eyes landed on a cluster of colorful little bottles on the counter- probably alcoholic. The "special cocktails" Khloe mentioned must contain alcohol. "You know how to mix drinks?" he asked. "A little," Khloe replied, her fingers tracing a small circle in the air. "Think of it as a light beverage." "I'll have one." "Okay." Khloe had all the tools ready and approached the task with care, following each step meticulously.

After some shaking and stirring, she poured two drinks of different colors-one pale blue, the other soft pink. She slid the pale blue one toward Nick. "Try this." She remembered he didn't like sweet drinks, so these contained no added sugar. Nick's long, knuckled fingers lifted the glass, taking a careful sip. His brow furrowed slightly as the chilled liquid. touched his lips, but it was refreshingly smooth. He cleared his throat. "Good." 1/2 Chapter 150 +25 Bonus "Too cold?" Khloe asked. "I can make you something warm instead." She reached for his glass, but he avoided her hand.

"No," he said, holding the cup, his gaze never leaving her face. "Any drink you make deserves to be savored." His intent stare left Khloe flustered. She quickly lifted her own glass and gently clinked it against his. "Cheers." Nick acknowledged her with a soft hum. Watching her playful gesture made a small warmth spark in his chest. "Why is yours pink and mine blue?" he suddenly asked, glancing at her glass. The question struck Khloe's heart in an unexpected way. She smiled, delighted to explain, as if expecting praise. "My pink one has rose honey powder. It's sweeter.

Yours has mint, lemon, and gin-fresh and crisp. Don't the colors match well?" "They do," he murmured. "And... when I first met you, I thought your eyes are as deep as the ocean. Blue just suits them," she admitted, a blush rising to her cheeks. Nick's heart skipped. No one had ever complimented him like that. He paused, caught off guard, then took another long sip, coughing lightly again. "Slow down," Khloe said immediately, offering a napkin. He nodded, meeting her concerned gaze. Somehow, in this unsweetened drink, there was a sweetness he could feel.
