Billionaire's match novel

Chapter 392 The top figures in Goldmont City's tech industry had already introduced Barney. Before the summit officially began, Khloe had taken the time to scan the companies attending. Solara Energy's background was strong, and its field aligned with her interests. She smiled and extended her hand. "Barney, it's an honor. I've long admired your reputation and hope we'll have a chance to collaborate." "Looks like you stole my line, Khloe," Barney replied with a clear laugh. Behind his sleek glasses, his deep eyes met hers without hesitation.

Khloe smiled subtly, taking a business card from her assistant and handing it to him. Barney reciprocated immediately, offering his own card. After a few polite words, Barney suddenly asked, "Khloe... have we met somewhere before?" "Not that I recall," Khloe replied, pausing slightly. She couldn't help noticing how direct his gaze was. Prompted by someone nearby, Barney quickly nodded apologetically. "Sorry, it must be a mistake. I don't know why, but seeing you gives me a strange sense of familiarity... and comfort." Khloe had heard enough flattering lines to stay unfazed.

She responded politely, "Then I suppose we're destined to meet. I must admit, I find you quite approachable as well." Seizing the moment, Barney suggested dinner after the summit. Khloe shot her assistant a quick glance. "Mr. Lemont, I'm afraid our schedule is packed today..." the assistant replied hastily. Khloe raised a hand to stop him. "Barney, how long will you be in Goldmont City? Why not wait until I'm free, and I'll extend an invite?" "I'm here just for the summit. I leave tomorrow," Barney said, reading the polite brush-off. He smiled and stepped down gracefully. "No matter.

I have more business in Goldmont City in the future. Next time, Khloe, I'll hold you to your promise." "Of course," she replied. Having finished with him, Khloe slipped away through a private passage. Watching her retreating figure, Barney's expression softened, almost dazed. A friend beside him noticed and nudged him. "Barney, I know Khloe is beautiful, but a word of warning-she's taken!" "Oh?" Barney curved his lips faintly, "By Nick Hunt! I hear he dotes on her relentlessly." Nick's name had not crossed Barney's mind in years.

A prestigious conglomerate backed by state capital, it was discreet domestically but commanded respect internationally. Really? That was her connection? 1/2 Chapter 392 +25 Bonus Snapping back to reality, Barney pulled out his phone, intending to save her contact. Just then, he saw that Angela had called him multiple times. By the time he stepped outside to get her, Angela was nowhere to be found. He quickly dialed Angela's number. "I'm at a coffee shop across the street," Angela said. "Sorry, my phone was on silent.

Did something happen?" "They closed the entrance outside; I couldn't get in," she admitted, sounding slightly deflated. She didn't dare elaborate, worried Barney might probe. The project materials were already with him; her presence was secondary. A shame, though-this had been a prime networking opportunity. After hanging up, Barney didn't linger at the summit. He headed straight to find Angela. Meanwhile, Khloe's phone buzzed. She assumed it was Nick, since she had habitually sent him a message after leaving the summit.

She had even mentioned Barney and Solara Energy, noting that some projects overlapped with Nick's company. But when she answered, a female voice came through instead. "Khloe."
