Billionaire's match novel

---- Chapter 774 Lenny parted his lips, silently chiding himself. Had he just said the wrong thing? He hoped it wouldn't lead to some messy misunderstandin: That afternoon, Khloe asked Lenny to deliver some documents to Michelle. Just as he stepped out of the garage, he caught sight of a familiar figure exiting the hotel lobby. His heart skipped a beat- it was Angela. What was she doing here? Could she be looking for Michelle? Lenny's gaze instinctively sharpened, searching for clues when he spotted Michelle. "Why are you staring at me like that?

Is there something on my face?" Michelle's eyes flicked up from the documents, catching his gaze. Though she had been annoyed with him before, after what he said in the car... she decided to let it slide, for Nick and Khloe's sake. "Nothing," Lenny quickly looked away, rubbing the bridge of his ---- nose. Michelle raised her head. "Alright, | got the documents. You can go now." "Michelle..." "What?" Lenny hesitated, then finally spoke. "Did you just see someone?" "Someone?" Michelle paused. "When | arrived, | saw Angela leaving the hotel. She..." Michelle's eyes glimmered faintly. "Oh, right.

She came looking for me." Lenny tensed. "You met with her?" "No," Michelle said decisively. "Then how did she know you were staying here?" "How should | know? My place isn't exactly a secret. I've even been live-streaming here these past couple of days." As she spoke, Michelle realized something was off. Lenny was acting like an interrogator. "And did you tell Madam?" ---- Michelle's expression darkened. She curled her lips slightly. ° Khloe isn't my boss. I don't have to report every little thing to her. Lenny fell silent, but the concern on his face was clear.

Honestly, he didn't fully trust Michelle. People rarely change overnight. In the past, she had done questionable things to get close to Nick, even at Khloe's expense. What if she betrayed Khloe now? Michelle noticed his hesitation and felt a pang of discomfort. She had wanted to explain, but instead she swallowed her words. Waving him off, she abruptly shut the door with a bang before he could fully leave. Lenny, though frustrated, immediately reported the encounter to Khloe upon returning. Khloe, however, remained calm, letting out a small, mocking snort. "Angela is going after Michelle?

She just wants to dig up news about Nick. Let her be." "But... what if something happens between Michelle and Angela? Lenny reminded her, noticing Khloe hadn't considered the potential risk. ---- Only then did Khloe notice the worry in his eyes, and a faint smile tugged at her lips. "You really don't trust Michelle that much?" "It's not complete distrust, but one must always be cautious. Michelle has acted recklessly before in trying to get between you and Mr. Hunt, and Angela is someone who stops at nothing." Lenny explained honestly.

Over the past months, he had witnessed much alongside Nick and Khloe. When interests are at stake, even the most loyal hearts are easily tested. Nick had been harmed already; Lenny would rather act cautiously than see Khloe put in danger. "Michelle is not Angela. But thank you for the warning. I'll stay careful." Khloe's tone was calm, but her words reflected confidence in her own judgment. Michelle had grown up spoiled, with her own pride. Even if she had acted out to win back Nick, she was not like Angela- without limits, unscrupulous, or malicious.
