Chapter 24 Trey sent the money without a single word . Khloe let out a soft , derisive laugh . +25 Bonus She knew his game . This silent , grand gesture was just another calculated move to manipulate her emotions . He wanted her to read into it , to imagine some profound meaning in his " generosity . " She had asked for shares . He refused , but sending this money gave him an easy way out . Wasn't he just offering himself a graceful exit ?

The moment she softened , the moment a flicker of guilt appeared , Trey would once again become the magnanimous husband , and she would be expected to fall back in line , sacrificing without complaint . But those cheap tricks , once enough to fool her , no longer held any power . And her instincts were right . Trey waited all night , certain that once she saw the money , she would be the first to break the silence . She never did . On her end , Khloe was far from idle . After dismissing the transfer notifications , she noticed another alert .

It was a reply from Nick , sent twenty minutes earlier . Just one word: [ Yes . ] A ripple stirred in her heart . She typed a response , hesitated , then deleted it . His terse reply was a clear signal he wasn't in the mood for small talk . Would she be bothering him if she said more ? But since she had initiated the conversation , ignoring his reply seemed equally rude . After a brief internal debate , she finally sent another message : [ I saw your post and thought I'd check in . ] To her surprise , his reply came instantly : [ You're in Celosia ?

] She had assumed her message would end the conversation . She quickly typed again : [ I'm here for a charity gala . Will you be attending ? ] If he knew where she was , perhaps he'd also received an invitation . The thought of potentially meeting him in person sent a sudden , unexpected flutter of nervousness through her . [ I'm not . I have a summit tonight . It's about to go live . ] [ Oh ... Am I disturbing you ? My apologies . ] She sent the message in a rush , then quickly added another before he could respond : [ Don't let me keep you . I should get some rest as well .

] Better to end the conversation gracefully before she became a nuisance . This time , Nick didn't reply . Yet , his brief words had piqued her curiosity . Sleep was now the furthest thing from her mind . Instead , Khloe opened her laptop and searched for his name . 1/2 Cheater 24 +25 Bonus The initial results were sparse - until she remembered what Oscar had said : Nick was a towering figure on the international business stage .

The attendees were a who's who of industry titans and banking giants . And Nick , as the head of the multinational Hunt Group , was listed as one of the summit's keynote speakers . Intrigued , Khloe found the live stream . She waited for nearly half an hour before he finally appeared on screen .
