Billionaire's match novel

---- Chapter 841 Barney's face had gone pale as iron. Only when Khloe and Nick walked hand in hand toward the exit did he finally snap out of it. He strode forward, blocking their path. "Nick, is this really necessary? Listing drugs at cost for a bid? Do you even know how much this will cost? How much profit you'll lose?" Nick merely lifted the corner of his lips in a faint, almost dismissive smile. "Barney, mind your tone," he said evenly. "Yes, we'll lose profit- but as we've said, this isn't about the bid.

This is the Hunt and Morrison Groups giving back to the people." Khloe immediately stepped forward, shielding her husband, her eyebrows raised playfully, her lips curling into a teasing smile. Barney realized he'd lost his composure, but he also knew one thing: with Nick's words, Solara Energy's chances of winning had essentially vanished. He couldn't understand them at all. Why, when the situation was already unfavorable for Solara Energy, would they continue to raise the stakes? Nick tightened his arm around Khloe, his expression radiating a satisfaction that no outsider could read.

---- "Barney, since you ask whether it's necessary to go this far, my answer is simple." He looked down at Khloe with a faint, affectionate smile. "Absolutely necessary. What my wife sets her mind on is hers to take-there's no need to compete. All the detours we took with you before... consider that me being generous." Barney let out an incredulous laugh. "You're businessmen... and you're just throwing money at it?" "Exactly," Nick said without hesitation. "Can Solara Energy keep up?" Barney was struck dumb.

Even if Solara Energy could throw money around, they weren't Morrison Group-they couldn't let Khloe make decisions over billions of assets on a whim. Insane. Reckless. Absolutely audacious. Nick said nothing more, simply led Khloe away. George, Arista, and the Keller family all rushed forward to greet them. Nick's face darkened slightly at the sight of his father, but Arista didn't hesitate, throwing herself into an embrace of both Nick and Khloe. hank heaven!

Thank heaven for protecting our family!" The emotions in the room were intense, but since they were in ---- public, words had to be restrained. George immediately made a decision: a banquet would be arranged nearby to welcome Nick and Khloe, and the Keller family would join. Nick initially wanted to refuse, but Khloe pressed his arm lightly, and he didn't argue. Grandma Loretta and Grandpa Leon had seen the live broadcast and arrived shortly after. The moment they saw Nick, tears sprang to their eyes. Nick and Khloe could only soothe them, 'one in each hand.

The scene of the family reunited moved even the Keller family to tears. Michelle had expected to feel a twinge of jealousy seeing Nick and Khloe so complete, so whole-but in that moment, her heart was filled entirely with warmth. No lingering resentment remained. Only admiration and blessing. Everyone was careful not to intrude on the Hunt family reunion. The banquet concluded quickly. Once the Keller family left, Nick and Khloe returned to the Hunt estate.

Inside their villa, Khloe recounted all that had happened over the past days with Nick to the grandparents, including details about his health. Nick felt deeply ashamed and apologized for the worry he had ---- caused over the past few days. Without Khloe, he wouldn't have had the courage to face his own family. Khloe, protective of him and fearing his self-recrimination, took the blame gently. "Actually, these things... | hid them so you wouldn't worry everyone. "Nick still hasn't fully recovered... even today at the bidding, he was walking with some difficulty.

If it had been me in his place, | wouldn't have had the courage to do what he did..." Grandma Loretta shook her head, stopping Khloe before she could continue.
