Billionaire's match novel

---- Chapter 601 Seeing how resolute Nick was, Lenny said nothing more and rose to leave at once. Since Nick intended to protect Khloe, then he would do everything to protect Nick. When Khloe arrived at the hotel, Nick had already checked out. The empty suite no longer bore a single trace of Nick's presence, yet the intimate moments they had shared the previous afternoon were still vivid in her mind. In an instant, panic seized her completely. At that moment, Nick's message came through. [khloe, I've returned to Goldmont City. Don't worry about me.] The message was brief.

Khloe immediately called him back, but the call went straight to voicemail. Even if he were boarding a plane, Nick would never ignore her call. He knew she would come looking for him, yet he deliberately avoided her-his silence was his decision. Khloe could not choose between the Morrison family and him, ---- so Nick had chosen for her. No matter what happened, his resolve to protect Khloe would never waver. She was so angry she wanted to cry. He had really grown bold now. He didn't consider her feelings at all. At the very least...

at the very least he could have let her confirm that he was safe. He knew she would never be at ease otherwise Standing in the room with her phone in hand, tears slid silently down from the corners of Khloe's eyes. She didn't dare breathe too hard, didn't dare make a sound, yet it felt as though countless stones were pressing down on her heart, leaving her unable to catch her breath. On the quiet sofa in the living room, she seemed to see him again, urging his men to hurry. His expression must have been grim, and the look in his eyes as.

he stared out the window must have been even more troubled and lost than when she had seen him yesterday. The man who had been unwilling to let go of her hand just yesterday-how much resolve must he have summoned to leave so hurriedly and decisively? "Miss Khloe..." ---- Delilah stood at the doorway and called her softly. Their time outside was limited. If they delayed any longer, they would likely be discovered. Delilah had secretly escorted Khloe here.

She hadn't reported Khloe's whereabouts to Henry, and had arranged for her subordinates to stand guard outside Khloe's room, pretending she was still asleep. But now, the morning had already passed. If Khloe still hadn't appeared and Henry came to check on her, the ruse would be exposed. Delilah was anxious, yet seeing Khloe so distressed stirred her as well. At first, Delilah had thought that although Nick came specifically for Khloe, he was still being selfish and dragging her down. She had never imagined that Nick would leave first, all so Khloe would not offend Henry because of him.

For a moment, Delilah didn't know how to comfort her. "Let's go." Khloe quickly wiped away her tears and turned, walking past Delilah. ---- Delilah nodded. As she followed, she discreetly slipped a tip toa nearby staff member, signaling them to keep silent. On the way back, Delilah observed Khloe. Khloe stared out the window, her expression dim and withdrawn. After hesitating for a long while, Delilah finally spoke in consolation. "Miss Khloe, since your husband was able to leave immediately, his condition must not be too serious. The news tends to exaggerate things.

You shouldn't worry too much." "He left immediately... which means he really does have a problem," Khloe replied in a low voice. Her brows knitted tightly. She had personally checked Nick's condition before leaving-could it be that all these days, he had been deceiving her? She didn't dare think further. Yet the plan she had made before now changed completely. Two months was far too long. She had to leave this place as soon as possible "Ugh-" Halfway through the drive, a wave of nausea suddenly surged over Khloe. She clapped a hand over her mouth and dry-heaved uncontrollably.
