Chapter 111

Nick didn't take Khloe downstairs; instead, he pressed the elevator button for the rooftop.Khloe was a little surprised. At this hour, surely he wasn't planning to show her the stars? The thought flashed briefly before vanishing. Nick wasn't that kind of romantic, and he certainly wouldn't do something so childish.Sure enough, there were no stars visible from the rooftop. Instead, a helicopter was stationed at the edge of the building.The strong wind whipped at their clothes, and Khloe looked at him in astonishment."Nick… what is this?"From the helicopter, Lenny leaped down and strode toward her. "Get on the helicopter! You'll see once you're on board."There was a teasing smile in his eyes as he nodded at Nick, silently confirming that everything was arranged.Nick didn't answer. He removed his coat from his shoulders and draped it over Khloe. "Cold?"The coat carried his characteristic crisp, masculine scent, mingled with a faint hint of pine and sandalwood.Khloe's che

Nick's gaze never left Khloe. A faint smile tugged at his lips. "Khloe, I like this gift very much."Khloe had just started to rise when he lightly tugged her wrist. Off balance, she stumbled into his embrace, settling on his lap.His presence enveloped her; his breath brushed the shell of her ear. Instinctively, she drew back her neck, eyes lifting to meet his. In the brief blankness of that moment, her arms wrapped unconsciously around his neck.Nick's gaze lingered on her flushed earlobes. Leaning closer, he intended to speak near her ear, but she tilted her head, squirming. He hadn't pulled back in time, and his lips brushed lightly across her cheek.Khloe froze, her ears flaming all the way to her cheeks. Nick, equally startled, tightened his hands around her waist, stopping himself from going further. His voice was low, husky. "…Didn't duck in time?"Khloe hadn't even had a chance to react before the sudden contact interrupted her thoughts. Her pupils widened slightly, lashe

Just then, Lenny hurried over, a clear smile lighting up his face. He shot Nick a quick glance before turning to Khloe. "Miss Roswell, I wish you and Mr. Hunt a happy Valentine's Day."Khloe, still unaware of the full situation, looked at Nick. He lowered his gaze, subtly signaling for her to check her phone.She bent her head and unlocked the screen—and froze. The date had gone back to the previous day. The time, too, had shifted from just past midnight to around 11:30 p.m.!It was a time zone difference.Nick hadn't simply brought her onto a helicopter to celebrate Valentine's day in the air; he had used the regional time difference to fly her back to the previous day. At this moment, they hadn't missed Valentine's at all."Oh, Nick…" Khloe covered her mouth in surprise, her eyes instantly glistening with tears.For the first time… someone had gone to such lengths for a casual invitation she had made.She glanced out the window. Far below, the city lights sprawled like a glitt

Chapter 114

Their mingled breaths stirred a silent, smoldering desire between them. Yet Nick kept just enough restraint—he held Khloe gently for a moment, nothing more.When he finally released her, his hand brushed lightly over her flushed cheek. His eyes, deep as the ocean, burned with a quiet intensity restrained by willpower."Don't be afraid. I want more than tonight. The rest of our lives… we have all the time in the world."His voice was low and husky, clear yet feather-light, landing softly on Khloe's heart, igniting her blood as if it were aflame.There was no ambiguity in his words—he truly wanted to marry her, and he truly respected her.Khloe's heart was utterly undone.Before tonight, she had never entertained any other thoughts about Nick. But now… facing him, her pulse raced uncontrollably.…Monday arrived, and Khloe went to the Fox Group office as promised.Arthur and Trey were already waiting in the CEO's office.She wore a cobalt-blue plaid suit, radiant and elegant, h

Chapter 115

The shares Arthur held could never be transferred to Khloe. Part of them belonged to his father, over which he had no authority, and his mother could reclaim her portion at any time.Khloe glanced at the transfer agreement, then, after a moment, spoke again. "Trey told me it was half the shares. That's why I brought a new project back to the company."To everyone's surprise, she actually pulled a project proposal from her bag—one that the Fox Group had attempted to secure multiple times before but had failed.The project's value was nearly 100 million dollars. If the Fox Group succeeded, all previous losses would pale in comparison, and the IPO process would accelerate dramatically.Arthur and Trey's eyes simultaneously lit up. Arthur even reached out instinctively to take the proposal.But Khloe drew it back, arching her brows slightly, letting out a soft sigh."Though now, it seems a little wasted. Since the sincerity between us isn't equal, I don't see any point in wasting mor

Chapter 116

Trey's tone was tense, every word dripping with concern for Khloe, as if she were being unreasonable.Khloe simply lifted the corner of her mouth in a faint smile, ignoring him. "Arthur, my insistence on fifty percent of the shares isn't out of stubbornness. Several of the company's core projects are stalled and urgently need strong leadership. If decision-making is fragmented, with approvals stacked layer upon layer and departments checking each other, we'll miss opportunities again. I need absolute control to ensure the strategy is fully executed, and to safeguard the multi-million-dollar projects at their most basic level."If you cannot align with my approach, then my staying has no purpose. I ask that you make a decision quickly—do we grow this company together, or do you process my resignation now?"Khloe's resolute stance left Arthur momentarily cornered. Her words were sound, and that 100-million-dollar project in her hands was undeniably tempting.Trey, utterly embarrass

Chapter 117

Trey stepped into Khloe's room, and memories of the past came flooding back.Not long after their marriage, Fox Group had landed several critical projects. Khloe had thrown herself into work so completely that she even noticed Trey's unease and voluntarily gave up their honeymoon.Later, she would often stay up late alone to negotiate deals. To avoid disturbing him, she moved into the side bedroom, sleeping apart.Trey slowly sat on the edge of the bed, running his hand over the neatly made sheets.The bedding was simple and elegant. He didn't know the brand, but he recalled the servants saying that every item in the house—big or small—had been personally selected by Khloe whenever she could find the time. Every single decoration in his room bore her touch.When he looked up, it was as if she were standing there before him, her face radiant with a smile. Her eyes had always been pure and bright, revealing no weakness no matter how difficult the situation. Her presence alone had al

The servant hurried to catch up. "Dinner's ready, sir. I've prepared it according to your tastes, since I heard you'd be home today.""And Pete?" Trey noticed that Pete had been unusually quiet today. Normally, the moment he returned, Pete would come out and make a fuss."Oh, Miss Angela took him."Trey froze for a moment before recalling—Pete had called that morning, insisting on seeing Angela. Helpless, he had let her take him temporarily. Angela hadn't even greeted him properly when she picked Pete up, clearly still sulking over something.But now, Trey didn't have the energy to care about Angela.At the dining table, five dishes were laid out—Trey's favorites. The centerpiece was a creamy soybean and pork trotter soup.He took the ladle handed to him by the servant and tasted it. The flavor was fine, but the pork trotter wasn't tender enough, and the broth lacked the richness he remembered. He frowned. "Why does it taste different from usual?""Different?" The servant paused

Chapter 119

An hour later, Khloe drove up to the Hunt family estate, carrying carefully chosen supplements and fresh fruits for Leon and Loretta. Thinking she might see Nick, she had dressed up a little—slipping into a pale pink dress and applying a light touch of makeup.As soon as she stepped into the villa, Loretta came bustling out, her face lighting up. When she saw the gifts Khloe had brought, she frowned slightly."You don't need to bring anything, dear. Just having you here is enough. If your arms get sore carrying all this, my heart would ache!"Loretta's words made Khloe blush with embarrassment."Grandma Loretta, I'm not that delicate. Besides, I don't need anything, and you often send me gifts too, don't you?""That's not the same," Loretta said, her voice warm. "I'm your grandmother. You don't have to give me anything, but you can't stop me from thinking about you."Hearing this, Khloe felt a lump in her throat. She hooked her arm around the older woman's and teased softly, "Gra

"Did something happen?" Khloe asked.Loretta's words immediately made Khloe anxious."I heard there's an emergency at the newly acquired lithium mine, and there have even been casualties," Loretta replied, uncertain whether to continue.Leon sighed and took over the explanation."Nick has always been extremely responsible. All the weight of the Hunt Group rests on his shoulders now, and he never allows himself a moment of slack. Whenever there's a crisis, he insists on handling it alone. Until the problem is resolved, he probably won't get any proper sleep or rest…""No rest? How can his body endure that?" Khloe's voice trembled with worry.She thought back to his recent car accident—though the injuries were minor, he still needed proper care and rest!"That's exactly what we worry about most," Loretta said, shaking her head anxiously. "He hates seeing us worry. Even when something happens, he won't tell us the details. These past few days, he hasn't come home at all. We only le
