Chapter 166

Author: Tangy Candy
It was the very same drink she'd made for Nick that evening.

Khloe took a cautious sip. The flavor was sharp, tingling, yet her mind involuntarily flashed to the image of him leaning close to her side.

Outside, Nick carried a cold, composed persona, but at home… he was surprisingly clingy. Wherever she went, he followed.

By eleven o'clock, Khloe had dozed off on the living room sofa, only to be jolted awake by her phone vibrating.

"Hello?" she murmured, still groggy.

On the other end, Nick'

Ok. My bad, I somehow skipped a page. When he told her to open the door, then he came in.

    The reagent bag lay quietly inside the box.Nick glanced at it, then handed the box back to her."Khloe.""Mm?""Don't go out alone these days."Khloe looked at him.His expression was calm, but his tone was serious."Lacuna members are in Swinterland," he said. "They wouldn't appear here without a reason."Her heart sank slightly."You mean…""I'm just telling you to be careful," Nick cut her off. "Nothing else."Khloe said nothing. She leaned back into his embrace, the small box still in her hand.Night deepened outside the window.…Two hours later, after spending an entire evening in the kitchen, Khloe finally brought out four dishes and a soup.Nick sat at the dining table, looking at the full spread, the corners of his lips faintly curved."Are you sure we can finish everything?""If we can't finish it, we'll heat it up tomorrow," she said, sitting across from him. "Try it."Nick picked up his fork and took a bite."How is it?""Good."Khloe smiled. "You say

    Everything looked normal.But that feeling of being watched still lingered.The bodyguard crouched beside the elderly woman and forced the pill into her mouth. The woman convulsed and struggled weakly before finally managing to swallow it.Nearby, her assistant was still on the phone, calling for an ambulance, speaking quickly in accented French.Khloe watched the scene unfold, and a thought suddenly flashed through her mind, 'Too coincidental.'The moment she stepped out, the old woman had an episode. The moment she tried to approach, she was stopped by the bodyguard. Everything seemed perfectly logical, seamlessly arranged.But something still felt off.Her gaze shifted again to the man in gray. He was still there, head lowered, staring at his phone, completely motionless. Two minutes had passed. He hadn't turned a single page.Khloe's heart sank slightly."Madam," another bodyguard approached her. "The ambulance will arrive soon. Should we wait in the car first?"She nodde

    Khloe quickly packed her belongings into her bag, then called over a waiter to order a dessert. Only after finishing it did she stand up and leave.She had asked Lucas to investigate the research project on T7 that Nick's attending physician had mentioned. It was indeed a new extract developed in Naraida that could reverse the spread of cancer cells. The clinical data looked impressive.However, the source of the extract had been deliberately erased. Using all available channels, Lucas had only managed to uncover two words: Biological extraction.Khloe stared at that reply for a long moment, a faint unease creeping up her spine.A biological extract—what kind of organism required its information to be hidden so thoroughly?But she didn't have the mind to think further about it now.As she stepped out of the café, that same feeling of being watched returned.She turned back.The bustling street behind her showed no one paying her any attention.The bodyguards and assistant wait

    Her phone rang. She glanced at the caller ID and froze for a few seconds.Michael, standing beside her, asked, "Who is it?""The foundation," Winnie said.Michael nodded. "Answer it."She took the call.The voice on the other end was extremely polite—so polite it felt like they were talking to a VIP guest."Winnie, regarding your mother's inheritance, we'd like to meet with you in person to discuss it."Winnie's grip on the phone tightened."Discuss what?"There was a brief pause on the line."Restitution," the person said. "Everything that belongs to you will be returned in full."Winnie hung up. She stood there, frozen, for a long time.Michael walked over and gently wrapped his arms around her from behind."You heard that?" he asked.Winnie nodded. She still didn't speak. But her shoulders trembled slightly.Michael turned her around to face him.Her eyes were red, but she hadn't cried."Winnie," he said softly.She looked at him."You got it back," he said. "Your

    Ariana looked up at Trey."What are you smiling at?"Trey took a slow sip of wine."You don't see it?" he asked.Ariana said nothing, still watching the screen.Trey set down his glass and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window."That girl, Winnie," he said lightly, "doesn't have the brains for this."Ariana frowned."You mean…""Khloe." Trey cut her off. "This is her work."Ariana paused—then smiled as well."Isn't she in Swinterland with Nick?""So what if she's in Swinterland?" Trey turned back. "That doesn't stop her from meddling."Ariana fell silent.Trey studied her, a faint light flickering in his eyes."Think about it," he said. "The rhythm of the public opinion shift, the timing of the evidence release, the foundation's reaction speed—every step hits perfectly. That's not something Winnie could pull off."Ariana nodded."So what now?"Trey's lips curved slightly."So," he said, "the more Khloe does this, the happier I am."Ariana looked at him."Why?"He

    "It's fine. You should head back first. I can handle the rest myself," Winnie said."Did you already forget what we just discussed?""But your dad…""Dad asked me to assist you."Michael didn't say much more. He simply showed her his chat with Oscar.Indeed, Oscar had told him there was no need to stay by his side. He had enough medical staff and assistants around him, and Michael and Winnie should focus on their own matters instead."So why did you…"Winnie still looked doubtful. If that were the case, Michael wouldn't have needed to step out to take his call earlier.Michael pinched her cheek lightly. "Dad already acknowledges you as his daughter-in-law. Stop overthinking. We were just discussing how to use tonight's situation to get you your inheritance as quickly as possible."Winnie was surprised. Ever since Clarice had fallen from power, cooperation between the Morrison and Olson families had been cut off.Now that Michael and Winnie were married, Oscar naturally knew w

    Nick's sudden question left Lenny momentarily stunned. "Morrison Group invested in Fox Group?"He hadn't even noticed that line in the report.Logically, with Khloe at the Morrison Group, Morrison Group wouldn't have any dealings with the Fox Group. And who in their right mind would invest in such

    Nick rose and handed Khloe a file.It contained information on Clarice and Ethan.Khloe operated in the open, they in the shadows—it wasn't easy to track them. Both had secretive backgrounds and private lives, making any investigation difficult. Even with Nick's extensive effort, only a small port

    "Lindsay, there's something I'm not sure whether I should say."After a brief pause, Veronica turned to look at Lindsay.When Lindsay returned to the private room, her demeanor had completely changed.She sat down beside Michael. He was distracted, scrolling on his phone. Only after noticing her

    "Stop working for Khloe. Work for me instead. Whether you want to focus on your career or you want money, I can give you whatever you want."The moment Ethan finished speaking, Charlotte's pupils widened slightly.Her patience had reached its limit. Taking advantage of the instant he relaxed, she
