Billionaire's match novel

---- Chapter 663 Ryan nodded, then shook his head again. Noah let out an exasperated sigh and reached over to tap him on the head. "Do you believe me if | hand you over right now?" "It's on me, but | can't give it to you now," Ryan admitted, a helpless note in his voice. He lifted his shirt, revealing a wound on his abdomen. Noah's eyes flickered in surprise-Ryan had hidden the item inside his own body. "Please... have mercy. Help me get out of the country. | know | have no choice, but without this, I'm afraid they won't let me live either..." Ryan's voice wavered as he lowered his head.

Noah opened his mouth, then closed it again. Back when he had run Lacuna, he could guarantee that innocents wouldn't be harmed. But now. When he had gone to find Ryan, the man's family had already vanished. That alone told him how ruthless Spence had been this time. Noah said nothing, but his face darkened to an extreme. ---- Meanwhile, in Naraida, evening. Arista received a message from Noah and immediately went to find Khloe and Nick. The door was answered by Nick, the room inside empty except for him. "Where's Khloe?" Arista asked, curious.

They had been inseparable these past few days, clinging to each other constantly. At this hour, where could she have gone? "She went to a project launch event," Nick said lightly. Arista raised an eyebrow, surprised. "lL asked her to go," he added. Khloe had a collaboration with Ralph. The Remington Group was hosting a launch event that evening, and they had invited Khloe to the dinner. Many investors would be present. Even if not strictly for business, it was a rare chance to expand her network. Yet when Ralph personally called, Khloe had initially refused without hesitation.

It was only after Nick persuaded her repeatedly that she finally agreed. Both of them knew the truth. At a time like this, Henry would ---- surely be aware of the event. It was probably another test- seeing whether Khloe would weigh the interests of the Morrison family against Nick If she refused to go, it would give others a chance to talk behind her back. Khloe didn't care about gossip, but Nick did. Arista nodded, understanding, but worry lingered. "You should have gone with her.

Alone, she won't get into trouble, will she?" "She won't." Nick's voice was cold, though his eyes were stormy beneath the calm exterior. Khloe was well-protected, and Ralph, attentive as he was, would ensure her safety. Arista caught a faint trace of jealousy in his tone and quickly shifted the conversation to urgent matters. Noah had already found Ryan. Barring any unexpected setbacks, he would arrive by tomorrow evening. Once the truth came out, Clarice and the Morrison family would have no reason to trouble them further. Arista was excited, but Nick's expression remained tense.

Even for such good news, he only raised the comer of his mouth and said flatly, "Good." She noticed him glancing at the clock from time to time. Khloe had only recently left. By the time she returned, it would be late. ---- At the dinner, Khloe would naturally interact with Ralph. No matter how gentlemanly he was, they would at least share the meal, talking and laughing. Nick appeared calm on the surface, but inside, a storm was raging. He had thought he could remain magnanimous, yet at moments like this, he was still on edge. Arista, seeing through him, couldn't help but smile. "Actually...

you could have accompanied Khloe to the Remington Group dinner too." Nick said nothing. She knew him well: the more he cared, the harder he tried to restrain himself. He wanted to give Khloe complete freedom, lest she worry that he might be jealous.
