Chapter 395 +25 Bonus Chapter 395 These high-salaried department heads had all signed agreements long ago. If Nick wanted to punish them, it would be completely legitimate. "Forget it. Writing a reflection just wastes time. Since my wife has spoken, consider this a one-time exception." Nick's voice was calm, and once again, the weight that had been hanging over them lifted gently. So this was the other side of Nick-the side that could be so gentle and tender. Seeing this, Lenny quickly cleared his throat to remind them: if they didn't leave now, it would be truly impolite.
"Sir, please get a good rest. You and Madam take care and rest well-we'll leave now!" "Mrs. Hunt, may everything go smoothly for you, and may you be happy every day!" Before leaving, they made a point of greeting Khloe. Their smiles and well-wishes made it obvious how relieved and happy they felt. Khloe couldn't help but smile to herself. Once everyone had gone, Lenny collected everything from the coffee table, including Nick's work computer. So that was it. The whole "waiting obediently at home" act? A complete illusion.
Nick had been keeping work materials away from home to make her feel at ease, relying entirely on Lenny to run errands for him. Unable to hold back any longer, Nick drew Khloe close, circling her waist with his arm and pressing a kiss to her lips. Half resisting, half yielding, it was clear Khloe still treated Lenny as an outsider. Seeing this, Lenny didn't look back-he fled outside, letting the documents drop to the floor and closing the door as quietly as possible, though some noise inevitably escaped. Nick's longing for her was almost unbearable.

Today, ever since she had gotten out of bed, he'd felt restless, buzzing like ants crawling under his skin. The doctor said it was his scar healing, but he knew the truth: it wasn't that-it was desire. Desire for her. Desire to see her. Desire to be with her every single moment. Khloe's body melted under his touch. Her resistance slowly faded. They lingered on the sofa for what felt like hours, entwined. When Khloe finally allowed herself to pull away, the sky outside had darkened.
Nick's broad frame still held her from behind, the two of them curled together on a sofa that wasn't particularly large. Outside the window, the city lights began to flicker on, one by one, casting a warm glow that made their happiness feel almost surreal. Khloe turned to look at his dark eyes. "What am I going to do? I feel a little reluctant to leave this place." "Silly," Nick whispered, a soft smile in his voice. "This is your home. What's there to be reluctant about?" 1/2 Chapter 395 +25 Bonus "After we move, we probably won't come back here," Khloe said earnestly.
Once their new home was ready, they wouldn't return. She felt a pang of nostalgia-beautiful things always seemed to disappear the moment you feared losing them. Time, she wished, could pause. Nick's eyes darkened slightly. He nodded and brushed his warm hand against the corner of her eye. "Not returning here doesn't mean there won't be even more beautiful views.
Moving forward may not always be perfect, but this moment of happiness is already the best." Khloe had thought someone as seemingly detached as him couldn't understand her melancholy, yet in just a few words, he had eased all her fears and wistfulness. Her eyes brightened, and she smiled. "Nick... when did you get so good at speaking? Every word hits me right in the heart." "Probably... since the day I met you," Nick said, chest rising and falling steadily, tone serious. To love someone wholeheartedly is to understand every corner of their soul.
He had already made her his other half-how could his words fail to reach her heart?
