Billionaire's match novel

+25 Bonus Chapter 410 Loretta still felt as though she were dreaming. Her grandson-the one who had been quiet to the point of dullness since childhood, cold, rigid, and inflexible- turned out to be, deep down, a man of astonishing tenderness. She had once worried that Nick's lack of romance and his aloof, monotonous nature might end up wronging a good girl. Now, seeing the young couple so openly affectionate, she finally felt at ease. After resting for a few minutes, Khloe hurried into the kitchen to start cooking with the help.

Nick had wanted to follow her in, but Leon was particularly clingy today and came out of the guest room, insisting on finishing the news commentary he hadn't yet explained to him. Even so, halfway through Khloe's cooking, Nick still wandered over to her side. He restrained the urge to wrap his arms around her the moment he saw her from behind, and instead quietly helped carry dishes. "Don't just stand there. Aren't you tired? Go sit down and rest for a bit," Khloe urged him while keeping an eye on the heat. As she spoke, Nick's hand gently brushed her temple.

The thin layer of sweat there made his brow crease immediately. Arista had been watching their every move. Seeing Nick hovering so closely around Khloe, she tied on an apron and came over to help. "Oh, you don't have to. I'm almost done," Khloe said quickly. She wasn't cooking alone anyway; there were the help beside her, and everything was nearly finished. "Alright, Khloe. You've already done all the main dishes. I'll handle the rest," Arista said with a laugh.

Honestly, I'm just feeling sorry for someone here-someone who's so worried about his wife he's practically about to cry." Her teasing finally made Nick a little embarrassed. "Mom," he murmured. Just that single word made Arista's heart soften. She waved her hand, and Nick promptly dragged Khloe away. The two of them slipped into the bedroom together, stealing a few minutes before dinner to whisper in private. After not seeing Khloe for most of the day, Nick had been restless with longing. Even with family still around, he couldn't endure it another second.

He held Khloe and kissed her over and over, left and right, like someone easing an addiction that had tormented him for far too long. Only after a long while did he rest beside her, breathing softly. 1/2 12 Chapter 410 +25 Bonus "I missed you so much. So much, Khloe." "But I'm right here," Khloe said, lying on the bed as she gently traced the corner of his eye. His gaze shimmered with starlight. Night hadn't even fallen yet, and it was already deep enough to pull her under.

"Even when you're right in front of me, I still miss you," Nick said in a low voice, tinged with a barely perceptible melancholy. "And when I think about how I won't see you for a few days again, I already start missing you now." "No tears at parting, no words spoken-only hidden longing," Khloe murmured suddenly, recalling a line of poetry. She didn't know why, but no matter how sweet and intense their love was, she could always sense a deep sorrow within him-one that made her uneasy as well. "We have a long road ahead of us. I'm always here," she said softly.

Reassured by her words, Nick immediately reined in his emotions. He nodded, gently rubbing the tip of his nose against hers. When dinner was served, everyone gathered around the table, laughing and chatting. Praise for Khloe's cooking poured in nonstop, and she was instantly flattered beyond measure. If she spent every day with the Hunt family, Khloe thought, she'd probably swell with pride in no time. Just as the atmosphere peaked, the doorbell suddenly rang. Before Khloe could get up, one of the servants had already gone to answer it. Who could it be at this hour?

Everyone's gaze shifted to Nick and Khloe. Seeing the confusion in Khloe's eyes, a flicker of light passed through Arista's gaze. She had just started to rise when a servant opened the door. 2/2 Cedella Cedella is a passionate storyteller known for her bold romantic and spicy novels that keep readers hooked from the very first chapter.
