Chapter 100

Author: Tangy Candy
Time passed in tense silence, and Ethan's patience for the spectacle had finally run thin. He sighed, the corner of his eyes flickering with mockery.

"Don't worry. They'll be here soon." Khloe glanced at the clock, expression unreadable, and replied coolly. No sooner had her words left her lips than the conference room doors swung open.

Ethan stiffened instantly.

Among the seven core shareholders, there was no question about him, Clarice, or Khloe. The other four were staunch supporters of Clarice, utterly unlikely to appear voluntarily. Yet now, two of those four strode in, suits crisp, steps brisk, faces ashen, and without daring to glance at Ethan, seated themselves beside Khloe.

Ethan pressed his hands against the table, heart pounding, utterly bewildered. What was happening?

    Just then, Kirsten's call came through.Seeing her name, Trey's eyes darkened slightly. Without hesitation, he rejected the call.If Kirsten was calling now, it was almost certainly about Angela.Angela and Kirsten were close—over the years, whenever there was the slightest conflict, Angela would go straight to her. Kirsten always tried to mediate, never pushing for a split, but whenever Trey was around, he inevitably faced moral lectures and pointed reproaches. Over time, he had grown weary of seeing her.Now that she was calling, it had to be about the divorce.Kirsten wasn't persistent; when Trey didn't answer, she didn't call again.But almost immediately, Trey's phone pinged with a group mention.It was a former classmate from the dorm opposite his during university, inviting him to a birthday dinner tonight.Ever since Khloe had exposed the scandal with Angela, Trey had withdrawn from almost all alumni groups.

    "No, thanks." Winnie didn't want to talk to Ethan any longer and immediately tried to leave.But Ethan moved effortlessly, grabbing her hand. His strength was considerable; he only tugged slightly, but Winnie's momentum carried her forward—and before she could react, her high heels slipped, and she tumbled straight into his arms.Ethan's instincts kicked in. Open in his demeanor, he was ready to hold her close.Winnie's figure was striking, and he was more than willing to indulge in the moment.But before he could even touch her arm, Winnie shoved hard under his thigh. Pain contorted Ethan's face, and he nearly shouted out in frustration.Winnie tumbled awkwardly to the floor beside him but scrambled up instantly."Winnie…" Ethan ground his teeth in irritation. "I was trying to help you! What was that about?"Why was she so violent? He wondered.Rumor had it she had many men chasing her. Michael had been completely infatuated. Ethan had always guessed that beneath her aloof ext

    Winnie had studied this field in college. She had effectively inherited her mother's profession—her mother had been a highly capable pharmaceutical researcher, overseeing countless drug developments and, even on her deathbed, conquering a patented technique that earned worldwide recognition.But Winnie lacked her mother's talent. No matter how hard she worked in school, she never excelled.After graduation, she applied to countless companies in the field, but her abilities weren't exceptional, and her status as an Olson family heiress often worked against her—most employers refused to hire her.Winnie knew the Olsons were deliberately blocking her behind the scenes. They didn't want her to escape their control; they cut off her paths to success, afraid she might achieve something like her mother.Still, Winnie knew they worried unnecessarily.After the incident at the store with Michael and Lindsay, although she hadn't been formally reprimanded, her career evaluations at the Olson

    "Seeing it in person is better anyway."Nick agreed, but a trace of disappointment lingered. "Once we have our home ready, we'll have the wedding. I don't want to make you wait too long."Khloe's unspoken thoughts were laid bare by his words, and her cheeks flushed.The thought of the wedding filled her with anticipation she had never felt before.Even back when she had been close to Trey, she had been indifferent when he suggested skipping the wedding ceremony, treating it as a mere formality.But now she realized—even if it were just a formality—experiencing it with the person she loved gave life its true meaning.She wanted to be a real bride, the most beautiful and happiest bride for Nick."You just need to focus on healing, so I won't have to wait too long."Khloe took the opportunity to remind him again: maintain a positive mindset, get proper rest, take medicine on schedule, and follow the doctor's advice.Whether it was her words or the effect of the medicine, Nick soo

    Khloe laughed and cut him off.She could understand that Nick hadn't been coddled as a child—George had been strict, even harsh, and perhaps that had left young Nick with a trace of insecurity.But Nick had grown into a fine young man—the sole heir of the Hunt family, the lofty CEO of the Hunt Group. In business, he could turn a fortune with a flick of his hand.Even without the halo of status, standing there alone, he was a scene to behold.The first time she met him, Khloe hadn't even imagined discussing love with him…If anyone had reason to feel insecure, it should have been her."Tell me," he said.Nick ignored her teasing. He looked at her with complete sincerity, as if he needed an honest answer right here, right now."You have many qualities that make you easy to like, yes. But my feelings… they aren't only because of your qualities. Being with you makes me feel happy and hopeful about life. I want to spend my whole life like this—with you."Besides, I think liking som

    But Khloe returned without any sign of surprise.Perhaps Michelle still hadn't come to say anything."The doctor said you have inflammation. You need to take your medicine on time."Finally, Khloe hung up and returned, speaking as she busied herself with preparing his pills and a cup of warm water.Nick let out a soft cough, and she immediately rushed back. "No, maybe I should call the doctor again—have them check on you!""The doctor just left, less than two hours ago," Nick said, catching her wrist gently. "I just need to rest. The medicine is enough.""But—""Khloe, can you respect the patient's wishes once in a while?"He spoke calmly, softly, yet every word carried unmistakable seriousness."Alright."Khloe could only sigh, handing him the warm water and feeding him the pills. Watching his throat move as he swallowed each one, she tucked the blanket around his legs and reached to help him back to bed."I don't want to sleep yet," Nick murmured, holding her hand, drawing
