Billionaire's match novel

---- Chapter 570 "Did something happen? Is Henry giving you a hard time?" Nick asked. Though the words sounded soft and intimate, Nick's intuition caught every nuance. Khloe was usually reserved. Even when she longed for him deeply, she rarely spoke of it outside private moments, outside their own rooms. "No..." It was true that since arriving here, she'd felt uneasy. Clarice and Henry seemed to be hiding something from her. And then there was Ralph... it left her feeling unsettled. So she longed for Nick even more. He was her anchor, her strength.

She wanted nothing more than to be by his side, to. hold him close and fall asleep in his arms But Nick was cautious. If she told him all this, he'd worry before she even got a chance to feel any comfort. Besides, she planned to return to the country today. By the time Nick woke up, she'd already be home-a surprise waiting for him. ---- Thinking of that, Khloe felt a warm happiness. "I just... really miss you." "Ido too. | miss you as well." Nick's voice grew low and husky, as if he hated that the phone stood between them, as if he wanted to press a deep kiss to her cheek through the line.

A sound came from Khloe's end-someone had arrived, The call cut off abruptly. Nick stared at the black screen, then said to Lenny, "Go to the airport. | wanna fly to Naraida-now." "Sir... you mean... right now?" Lenny gripped the steering wheel tighter, his brow furrowed. " Maybe we should wait until tomorrow-" "Stop talking." Nick's voice was icy, absolute. There was no room for discussion. Lenny knew better than to try to change his mind, especially when it concerned Khloe. Still, he worried. Nick wanted everything done immediately.

Yet, Lenny ---- assembled a team, and it wasn't until after midnight that Nick finally boarded the plane. Among the team was his longtime private doctor, the director, and a newly recruited female physician. The young doctor had just returned from a top foreign university and was considered a key talent by the hospital. Normally, the director would have brought another male doctor, but the one scheduled for the night could not be reached. Only the female doctor was available-and she agreed immediately. She wanted the experience of being close to a top-tier tycoon.

She had never met Nick before and assumed, based on stereotypes, that he must be an older, sly, experienced man. When she finally saw him, her eyes widened. As Nick walked over to greet them, she froze, tense and rigid. Only after he left did she return to her seat, cheeks blazing red. Nick's youth and striking handsomeness far exceeded her expectations, His natural aura of cool detachment made it impossible not to be captivated at first glance. The director, used to this reaction from women, was unsurprised.

Every female nurse who had seen Nick reacted the same way, which was why he always brought a male staff member on rounds. ---- "Stop dreaming," the director said bluntly. "He has a wife-and he's totally obsessed with her. That's why he's flying to Naraida tonight, ignoring his own health, just to see her." The words shattered the young doctor's fantasy in an instant. But her disappointment lasted only a moment. She touched her flushed cheeks and murmured, "How can such a man exist? Wealthy, handsome, passionate... he's perfect." "Perfect, but he's not yours," the director said. "Besides...

perfection isn't good. People who are too perfect don't live long."
