Billionaire's match novel

---- Chapter 592 This time, they stayed entwined for a long while. Nick sweated more than usual. Normally, he was wild, unstoppable-but this time felt different. Khloe noticed he was unusually gentle, as if handling a treasure, as if he wanted to imprint every inch of her onto himself. "Nick," she murmured, nestled in the crook of his arm, sunlight falling on his shoulder, "do you know what I'm thinking about right now?" "Hm?" "The ancient tree at the Royal Palace in Jayelle City," she said.

Seeing the sunlight on him reminded her of the photo she had taken of him that day; her phone wallpaper was still that image. Sunlight on him made him feel divine-untouchable, radiant, almost like a dream she had to hold close to experience such brilliance. "If you want, once you return to the country, we'll go again," Nick said softly. "Okay," she replied. "Anyway, we'll be going there for the wedding. After that, | want to eat all the street food in Jayelle City, take tons of photos...

not just in Jayelle City, but everywhere ---- we haven't been yet." Khloe spoke of the things she longed for, trying to drive away the lingering sadness. This had always been her way of comforting herself. When she was at the orphanage, she told herself that one day she could live well on her own, so she couldn't give up. When she felt she couldn't go on, she reminded herself that someday, she would shine, and good things would come. Even after Trey had deceived her for six years and drained all her effort and heart, she still believed she could start over.

So now-being apart from Nick for just two months-she shouldn't be this sad. She already had the person she loved and the status of the Morrison family's heir. No matter how difficult the road, she could walk it. She would not fear, she would not retreat. "Good," Nick said with a small smile. "Once this is all over, we'll go to the ends of the earth together." Hearing his words, Khloe's smile became even sweeter. She turned and planted a loud, determined kiss on him Soon, her time was almost up. She had slipped out temporarily, and Ralph had only granted her until the afternoon.

Afterward, they would need to stop by the mall to leave a few consumption records, so that Henry wouldn't become suspicious. ---- "Does Ralph like you?" Nick asked suddenly as Khloe dressed. She had always downplayed him when mentioning him before. Of course, Ralph's willingness to help carried that undertone- she knew it, and she had used it to her advantage. But she hadn't revealed anything about Nick, and Ralph hadn't asked. He didn't know why Henry was watching her so closely; he just wanted to do his best to earn her favor. "..He-" Khloe hesitated, unsure how to answer.

"He must like you. Otherwise, he wouldn't go through so much trouble to help you, and he wouldn't keep your secret. Most people wouldn't bother that much," Nick said, his eyes flicking aside. "| used to have some connection with him, so... he probably has alittle affection for me. But | made it clear-| had no choice this time, and | won't be in a situation like this with him again." "I'm not concerned. It's normal for a man to like you," Nick said calmly, cutting her off. Turning back to her, he pressed a small package into her hand: a brand-new luxury watch
