Billionaire's match novel

---- Chapter 480 In truth, Angela didn't need to worry about any of this herself. Barney had already finalized everything with the team; her presence was merely a formality, a pretext for communication. After the meeting ended, Barney asked about Angela's family situation. Since that night when Barney had confessed his feelings, Angela's gaze toward him had grown evasive. Answering personal questions was no longer as straightforward as before. She thought for a moment before replying, "The funeral matters are settled, but there are still some things at home to handle.

| might need to stay in Goldmont a few more days." Today, Angela was in surprisingly good spirits. She had expected to return empty-handed, yet so quickly, she had managed to reconcile with Trey. Although he hadn't mentioned divorce, she believed that with enough patience, there was no reason he wouldn't come back to her. Angela wasn't about to let this slow her career either. She had considered all options-splitting her time between Goldmont and Jayelle City, or waiting until Trey felt steadier and bringing ---- him along Yet Barney showed no rush. "It's fine.

| wanted to tell you-the branch project has been finalized. You can stay in Goldmont and take the lead." Angela's eyes lit up. "Great! What project is it?" "The details are already sent to you. It's still in the new energy sector. But this time we have a partner-the top pharmaceutical company in Goldmont." Barney spoke plainly, as if discussing casual matters. The words struck Angela. "Morrison Group?" She remembered missing the summit because of the Fox family's issues. She had been unable to meet the Morrison Group representatives, and had felt some regret.

Now, hearing that they were the partner, her heart couldn't help but leap with excitement. With Morrison Group backing the project in Goldmont, the branch's success was almost guaranteed. She could easily handle the operations. Solara Energy had always been steady in energy technology, and Morrison Group's latest investments. aligned perfectly with their strategy. Ever since planning to expand into Goldmont, Barney had intended to bring Morrison Group into the loop.

Solara Energy's ---- processes were methodical and slow, which was why the partnership was only now finalized, along with the branch location and new development direction. "Yes. Tonight, I've arranged a dinner with the head of Morrison Group. Tomorrow morning, my representative will accompany you to sign the contract." Barney's tone was so calm, Angela almost wondered if he were chatting idly rather than announcing a major deal. A contract with Morrison Group-something this significant-had been settled with a single call, and she had been completely unaware until now.

Was it Barney's composure, or his cunning? Only when a deal was complete did he reveal the truth to those around him. Still, Angela felt elated. She rushed home, changed her clothes, and shared the good news with Trey immediately. "You mean Solara Energy is partnering with Morrison Group?" Since reconciling with Angela, Trey's condition had visibly improved. When she arrived, he had just finished showering, his tall frame bare except for a towel around his waist. He had lost some weight over the past days, his collarbones and jawline sharply defined.

Yet in this state, he looked even more strikingly masculine. The once soft, seductive lines of his face ---- had deepened; his features seemed newly sculpted, every contour sharper, every angle more precise. However, the boyish innocence of a young heir was gone. Beneath the tired eyes, a barely concealed aggression and mischief lurked, like a reckless scion reborn into a sharper, darker edge. And yet... Angela adored precisely that.
