Billionaire's match novel

---- Chapter 790 Lenny wanted to stop Khloe, but seeing her resolve, he could only accompany her to the Keller residence. The Keller family's butler looked surprised when he heard of Khloe's visit. After checking with his master, he led them straight to the study of the Keller family patriarch. Khloe and Lenny waited nearly half an hour before anyone appeared. When they did, the only hospitality offered was two cups of hot water. The maid explained that the patriarch was busy and might not be able to see Khloe. "lcame to see Michelle," Khloe said calmly. "If Mr.

Keller is unavailable, that's fine. Have Michelle come to see me-I have urgent matters to discuss with her." The maid's smile was strained. "Miss Roswell, Miss Michelle isn't at home. And... you do have her contact information. Perhaps it would be better to make an appointment with her first?" "Very well," Khloe said, unfazed. "Since Michelle isn't home, I'll wait here for Mr. Keller." Lenny tensed. He glanced at Khloe, but her expression remained composed. Without hesitation, she even sat down and sipped ---- the hot water. The maid looked uneasy.

"Miss Roswell, we apologize for keeping you waiting... but you didn't inform us beforehand. I'm afraid..." The Keller family didn't want to offend the Morrison family. Khloe, meanwhile, was overseeing the Hunt Group's operations. There was still some cooperation between the Keller and Hunt families, so avoiding her entirely would have been impolite. The maid tried to soften the refusal. "I'm not in a rush, I'll wait here. From what | know, Mr. Keller no longer has work responsibilities. Since he's here, | can wait patiently." Khloe cut her off, her tone decisive. Her words left Lenny baffled.

He thought her priority should be managing PR crises, not lingering at the Keller residence with Michelle. Just as the maid hesitated, the study door opened. Francis Keller stepped in with measured steps. He had overheard the exchange and realized there was no point in hiding. "Khloe, it's an honor to have you here. | couldn't possibly let you wait." The maid immediately stepped aside, and under his gesture, left ---- the room and closed the door. Khloe rose to greet him. He was in his sixties, yet carried the vigor of a man in his early fifties.

His posture was straight and muscular, and his facial features bore a strong resemblance to Michelle's. He wore a tailored suit with silver-rimmed glasses, exuding refined elegance. It was their first meeting. Previously, Khloe had only met the Keller family during Michelle's engagement banquet with Nick or at Morrison family events, accompanied by Michelle's mother and other elders. Khloe had heard that Francis had held high positions for years and disliked socializing. Most of the Keller family's business affairs were managed by Michelle's mother and other family members. "Mr.

Keller, thank you for receiving me. You already know the purpose of my visit today, so let's not waste time. If you have any opinions about me-or about the Hunt family-please speak freely." Khloe's opening words caught Francis off guard. He knew why she had come but didn't expect her to speak up for Michelle. "Khloe, | don't quite understand your meaning. If you're ---- concerned about news matters, | have heard of it. But that is my daughter's personal action. She has always been impulsive, acting without thinking of consequences.

If she has caused trouble, | hope you will not hold it against her." No sooner had he finished his polite speech than Lenny's composure broke. "Acting without thinking of consequences? Do you even know what she has done?"
