Billionaire's match novel

+25 Bonus Chapter 348 Khloe's eyes darkened slightly, but she quickly returned the phone to Nick. She noticed the expression on his face-grim, tense. He must have just seen the news. Khloe, on the other hand, had already gone through these hot topics before his accident, so she remained calm. Michelle's livestreams were trending again, and after posting a short "work's done" update on her social media, the gossip that had been dying down flared back up. Marketing accounts capitalized on fans' curiosity about her relationship, pumping out endless posts.

Yet, Michelle herself seemed completely unfazed, as if the photos and reports of her with Nick didn't exist. Seeing Nick's frown, Khloe couldn't help but speak first. "Entertainment news loves to exaggerate these days. I don't care, so you don't need to either." He snapped out of his thoughts at her words, letting out a soft laugh. He pulled her gently onto his lap. "Are you sure you've got the lines right? I'm the one stirring up the gossip, yet here you are comforting me?" "So that means you want me to get jealous, huh?" Khloe teased, blinking as if she'd just read his mind.

Nick didn't answer directly. His eyes were deep, ocean-like, fixed on the faint curve of her lips. "I want to see you get jealous because it shows you care about me. But I also fear that your jealousy will make you misunderstand me." Khloe paused, her smile fading gradually. She reached up and cupped his cheek, her voice softening. "I am jealous. Who wouldn't be, seeing the person they love surrounded by another woman all the time? But I already went through that when these news stories came out while you were in trouble...

the jealousy's already spent." Since Nick was being serious, she didn't feel the need to hide her feelings. Though jealous, she trusted him completely. Once she learned about his accident, all she could focus on was his well-being; everything else had been set aside. She also knew Nick had strong boundaries. Seeing these rumors would have made him uncomfortable, and she didn't want to burden him further. "I'm sorry." Nick didn't know what to say. His thick brows were starting to furrow again, but before he could speak, Khloe's fingers pressed gently against his lips.

"Lenny already told me everything. You were just working. Michelle showing up wasn't something you could control. No one can be perfect all the time-not even you, Nick. So don't apologize to me constantly. Do you really think I'm not understanding enough?" Khloe lifted her chin deliberately, a trace of triumph in her eyes. Her voice was like honey, sweet without being cloying. "The most understanding woman in the world is my wife, Khloe Roswell." 1/2 Chapter 348 +25 Bonus Heat coursed through Nick at her words. His brows relaxed, a soft smile breaking through for the first time.

Hearing the warmth in his voice made Khloe's ears flush red. This time, she truly laughed. "Okay, I'm not that understanding. Cough, cough... you're exaggerating a little." Just as Khloe thought the matter could be set aside, Nick's tone darkened thoughtfully. "But I still feel guilty letting you see those news stories. Any ideas on how to fix it?" "Fix it?" She shrugged. "Suppress the news? Remove it from trending? Contact those gossip accounts?" "That's just a temporary patch," he said coolly, his gaze hardening. He thought back to when Michelle had attempted suicide.
