Semua Bab Billionaire's Match: Bab 451 - Bab 460

Dr. Yale knew Khloe hadn't quite understood what he meant. Smiling softly, he looked at her. "Not necessarily.""Then…?""But I remember you saying just now that when Nick lost consciousness, he didn't hurt you."Khloe froze.It was as if something clicked.Dr. Yale turned his gaze to Nick. "Nick, not everything that happened was your fault. You see—you protected your stepmother. You also protected the woman you love. People can do irrational things in order to protect someone, and for the same reason, they can also stop themselves from causing harm."And from now on, with someone beside you who wants to protect you just as much, you'll only get better."When Dr. Yale finished speaking, silence settled over the room.This time, though, the silence carried warmth.A quiet tenderness welled up in Khloe's chest. She looked at Nick, her eyes filled with a smile, and gently cupped his face. "Did you hear that, Nick? In the future, when you protect me—even if you lose consciousness,

"You can say whatever you need to say right here," the head of security said coldly."Khloe, you really are something," Lauren snapped. "So this is the pretty boy you found? Is he why you've been so heartless toward Trey? Do you have any idea—Trey hasn't been able to eat or sleep because of you. He's sick now…"Her voice was sharp and piercing. Doctors had warned her not to get angry or emotionally agitated, but at this point, she didn't care. She jabbed a finger at Khloe's face, wishing she had another mouth just to curse her harder."A pretty boy?" Khloe cut in softly before the old woman could finish. "Mind your words. He's my legal husband—and someone your family can't afford to offend."She was being firmly held by Nick, her body instinctively leaning into his chest. That intimate posture only poured fuel on Lauren's fury.Enraged beyond restraint, Lauren sneered loudly. "Legal husband? You've only been separated from Trey for a few months, and you already have a husband? Khl

"No… impossible… how could that be…" Lauren muttered under her breath, but her breathing had already grown rapid and uneven.The people she'd brought hurried to calm her, afraid she might become too agitated. Lauren shoved them away and forced herself to stand upright, though her entire body trembled violently."You're lying… how could you possibly—"Seeing that she still refused to believe it, the head of security stepped forward. "Normally, we're required to keep homeowners' identities confidential. But since Mr. Hunt has spoken, we can't very well keep it hidden anymore. Madam, the man standing before you is indeed the current CEO of the Hunt Group. And these two are legally married—just relatively low-key about it."As for this residential complex and its property management—they're also under the Hunt Group. Your claim that Miss Roswell used your family's money to buy a house here is ridiculous. Saying so would only make you a laughingstock."The guard's words were delivere

In her panic, Lauren blurted out what was truly on her mind. Only halfway through did she realize that the man standing beside Khloe was not someone she could afford to offend."Love?" Khloe said coldly. "Trey never loved me. He's the 'perfect heir' your Fox family raised—just like the rest of you. He doesn't know how to love. He doesn't even have the most basic moral line. Besides…"She walked over to Nick, gripping his arm firmly. Her voice softened all at once."I already have… the most perfect lover in this world."She lifted her chin and looked at Nick, her face filled with unmistakable pride.Only after comparing the Fox family and Trey did she truly understand what kind of life she wanted.A partner who could make her life whole—another soul who completed her. Someone through whom she could see the world, someone to stand beside her and solve life's problems together. The direction of her heart. Countless moments of joy and fluttering excitement.He would always stand at

Trey had stayed in bed, pretending not to hear.But Lauren's scolding was loud and full of force. She was furious—and yet she hadn't collapsed."It was Khloe. She went to see Khloe today," Stella said coldly.By the time the call reached Stella, Lauren had already been rushed to the hospital closest to where she had collapsed. It was only later, after asking the people who'd been with her, that Stella learned the truth—Lauren had gone to confront Khloe."Your grandmother did it for you," Stella continued. "She couldn't stand seeing you bullied by Khloe like this. She wanted to stand up for you. She just didn't expect…""I'm going to find her!"Trey's eyes were bloodshot. Before Stella could finish, he forced himself to his feet. But he hadn't eaten properly for days. His body was weak, trembling the moment he stood—let alone capable of going to settle scores."Who do you think you're going to confront?" Stella snapped. "Do you even know that Khloe is the Morrison heiress?"Th
