Billionaire's match novel

---- Chapter 758 Seeing the hatred written plainly across Khloe's face, Clarice only grew more pleased She said, "Khloe, my request is actually very simple. As long as you withdraw those groundless accusations against me and hand over control of the Morrison Group-as well as Niel's inheritance-I'm willing to live peacefully with you. From now on, we'll stay out of each other's way." Khloe burst out laughing the moment she heard it "Clarice, have you lost your mind?" Everyone present was worried that Khloe might lose control.

Even the police officers reminded her kindly not to let herself be provoked. In their view, although the evidence against Clarice was insufficient, the accusation that she had hired someone to commit murder was practically an established fact. As long as Naraida cooperated with the investigation, her conviction would only be a matter of time. "How is Nick doing?" Clarice suddenly asked in a low voice. The moment those words were spoken, the atmosphere in the room tightened. ---- But Khloe reacted differently.

As if she had caught a scent of something suspicious, she lunged toward Clarice again. Grabbing her by the collar, Khloe snarled, "You're not worthy of saying his name!" Lenny reacted instantly. When Clarice's people tried to pull Khloe away, he stepped forward and shielded her. The police officer could only warn sternly, "Miss Roswell, please do not use violence." Khloe's grip tightened around Clarice's collar, pressing against her neck. Yet, Khloe refused to let go, and no one nearby dared make a move against her. Clarice let out a cold laugh.

"Husband and wife are like birds in the same forest-they fly their separate ways when disaster strikes. If you're really so devoted, why didn't you die with him when the bus exploded?" "Believe it or not," Khloe sneered softly, leaning close to Clarice's ear, "if you say one more word, | can make sure you never speak again." Her voice was calm. But there wasn't the slightest hint of a joke ---- init. A chill ran down Clarice's spine. She knew Khloe wasn't joking. Besides, she hadn't come here simply to provoke her.

"If | can't speak," Clarice replied lightly, "then who's going to tell you where Nick is?" Khloe's gaze snapped to Clarice's half-smiling eyes. The instant their eyes met, Khloe's grip loosened. Clarice calmly brushed her hand aside. "Khloe, | came to see you sincerely this time. Why don't we make a deal?" "You're lying! He's already-" Only after a moment did Khloe realize what she had just heard. But when she tried to act again, Lenny held her back. Even he couldn't help speaking up.

"Clarice, stop talking nonsense." "Khloe, haven't you been asking Ralph to search for his whereabouts?" Clarice said coolly. "You never believed he was dead, did you? Let me tell you-you're right. Nick isn't dead." The moment she finished speaking, not only Khloe but everyone ---- in the room became tense. Her words meant that she knew Nick's whereabouts, And that she was deeply connected to the people behind the attack If her claim could be proven true, it would be equivalent to Clarice confessing to the crime herself. "How do you prove that what you're saying is true?" Khloe asked.

She tried to suppress the violent storm in her heart, but her voice still trembled slightly. "| don't know," Clarice said with a faint smile. "Didn't you say you don't believe me? Maybe I'm just lying to you." From Khloe's expression, Clarice clearly saw her weakness It was precisely that weakness that made her willing to gamble everything. Before Spence's people carried out their operation, he had already hidden Clarice away. He had prepared every possible escape route for her. If Nick and Khloe died, Clarice would face no more obstacles.

But if the plan failed, she could still leave everything behind and remain by his side forever. Spence had always harbored private feelings for Clarice. In the past, he lacked the power to protect her. He also knew that her ---- ambitions had never been directed toward him.
