Semua Bab Billionaire's Match: Bab 491 - Bab 500

Taking advantage of Ethan's momentary pause, Charlotte yanked her hand free and delivered a sharp, stinging slap across his face.Pain shot through him, and his reflex was to grab her, to retaliate. But then he caught sight of her reddened eyes, glistening with unshed tears, and that urge—the desire for revenge—was instantly suppressed."Disgusting? And you… after all this time approaching me, don't you think your actions are just as disgusting?" Ethan snarled, though his chest tightened painfully.He had a long, tangled history with women, and in every past conflict, it had always been the other person clinging, pleading, begging him.And yet now… he hadn't done anything to Charlotte, and already he felt as if he had been rejected, even toyed with. The illusion of having his heart manipulated gnawed at him.Of course, he shouldn't have any real feelings for anyone—never did, never should."Me? Compared to you, I'm only using your own method against you!" Charlotte's voice trembl

No one was allowed to hurt Khloe—not even Morrison Group.Nick was willing to defy George's principles for her.Khloe understood Nick's thoughts perfectly, but she didn't want to escalate things unnecessarily.If Solara Energy and Morrison Group were entering a legitimate partnership, she had no standing to oppose it. Otherwise, she wouldn't deserve to steer Morrison Group at all.But… if Angela was acting as Solara Energy's representative, that changed everything.Indirectly, Clarice had also given her an opening for retaliation."All right. I understand."After finishing the call with Charlotte, Khloe felt reassured.No wonder Angela could act as Solara Energy's representative. Trey had actually handed over the data she had painstakingly researched to Angela.To stoop that low and still try to deceive her?Thinking of the words Trey had uttered in confession earlier, Khloe felt a wave of disgust churn in her stomach. Usually, she could suppress the thought, but today it nea

So, how would Khloe react when she found out that Solara Energy's representative was Angela?Thinking of this, Trey's anticipation grew. He was eager to see how Khloe would handle Angela, and how she would deal with him.There was no love between them—but there had to be hate.Angela was led into the VIP reception room by Morrison Group staff.She had arrived an hour earlier than scheduled. Ethan had yet to appear.The assistant called Ethan, but he didn't pick up.At that moment, Ethan was just getting out of bed at the hotel. His phone vibrated nearby, but he ignored it and headed straight to the bathroom.After leaving Charlotte's place last night, he had drunk at a bar all night. Now, his whole body ached miserably.Only after a long, cold shower did he finally wake up enough to check his phone. He sent a message to have the company staff receive Angela and said he would arrive shortly.After hanging up, Ethan glanced at the message screen again.All night, Charlotte had

After hearing the description, Ethan abruptly stood up.There were only two women in the company who could have been sent to handle Angela: Charlotte and Winnie.The way the informant described her—"cold aura, almost like an executive"—could only mean Winnie.Without hesitation, Ethan stormed toward Winnie's workstation. When he found it empty, he immediately headed for the employee lounge.Winnie had taken Angela to change clothes, which meant the dressing room. And since the employee dressing rooms were separated by gender, Ethan headed straight for the women's area.Unsurprisingly, this drew attention. Many of the staff watched him closely, and Winnie's colleagues quickly followed.Khloe had warned them: Winnie was blunt and easily offended people, so they usually kept an eye on her. Now Ethan had come in full force to find her, and everyone was on edge."Winnie, what are you doing?"Ethan's anger was already boiling over. Seeing Winnie standing in front of the women's dress

Michael spoke in a calm tone.The mention of "Miss Roswell" of the Morrison Group made Angela's heart skip a beat.The heiress of the Morrison Group… was a Roswell?Angela's mind flashed to Khloe's face, and a chill ran down her spine. But almost immediately, she scolded herself inwardly.Impossible. How could Khloe possibly be the Morrison family's heiress? It was probably just a coincidence—she was being far too sensitive."As for Winnie offending a company client… you've misunderstood," Michael continued, his voice cool and indifferent. "Everything Winnie did was under my instruction. Ethan, if you have any issues, you can take them up with me directly."Winnie, standing behind him, felt her heartbeat quicken. Not from the tension in the air, but simply from hearing his voice. It made her feel safe, even joyful.Even after losing face moments ago, she found herself savoring it.The Michael she knew before seemed… different now. He had grown from a quiet, obedient child who r
