Semua Bab Billionaire's Match: Bab 671 - Bab 680

Delilah didn't dare dodge. The cane struck her lower leg, pain shooting through her as she gasped sharply.But she gritted her teeth, lowered her head, and quickly apologized."Even you would betray me? Haven't I treated you well?"Henry's steps were heavy as he slowly approached her. The aides hurriedly returned the cane.Delilah didn't lift her eyes. "I would never betray you. You've treated me like a daughter. I will serve you faithfully for the rest of my life."The old man snorted coldly. "Then why didn't you stop her?""In the current situation, for your dignity… we cannot forcibly detain Miss Khloe," Delilah quickly explained.Henry knew full well that controlling Khloe now was impossible. The more he couldn't, the more it stung his pride. Delilah had just happened to be in the line of fire for his frustration.He glared at her for a long moment before finally turning and leaving."Go. Summon Clarice to see me."Normally, Henry would pamper and favor Delilah, but today

Based on the timing of Noah's contact with Arista, it was clear that this disappearance case was likely connected to Ryan. Most probably, another group had already made their move, and Noah had rushed ahead to get there first.If that was the case, going in alone could put Noah in serious danger. Noah's whereabouts were unpredictable, and he had always refused interference from others—now, he was completely unreachable. Khloe couldn't just wait. She had to contact her own team again to gather intel on Clarice's movements. If anything had gone wrong with Noah, there would surely be some reaction from Clarice's side.Sure enough, Khloe's team sent back several photos. Clarice hadn't been in the estate at all these past few days; she had been hosting guests at a hotel several dozen kilometers away. Even for the most important contacts, she couldn't meet them in the dead of night every time. Previously, they had suspected Rick was inside that hotel. If Noah couldn't retrieve Ryan and

Clarice realized Khloe must have already uncovered a great deal and likely had people watching her, trying to resist. Yet, she never expected… Khloe would completely disregard the usual rules, daring to abduct someone right under her nose."Khloe, what do you think you're doing? You've taken my key witness—do you really think this will let you win?" Clarice's face darkened like iron.Khloe, calm and measured, replied, "What key witness? Could it be…"Could it be that you already know… that Nick's father had a sworn enemy? Out of a personal vendetta, he's been targeting the Hunt family. He even hired people on the dark web to cause us trouble before…"Oh, his name seems to be Rick Orion," Khloe spoke the name slowly, deliberately, and the shadows in Clarice's eyes deepened.Clarice said nothing, but the lethal tension in her gaze made it clear how furious she was.Nick's eyes cooled as he looked at Clarice. He gripped Khloe's hand, pulling her close just as she was about to contin

"Noah shouldn't be in danger… right? If we can't get Ryan's evidence, I'm not sure we can stop Clarice."Khloe's brow furrowed, her fists clenching tighter with every thought. Thinking of Clarice's ruthless, underhanded methods sent a chill down her spine—and sparked a burning anger.At that moment, Arista rushed over, phone held high for them to see. "It's news from Noah!"Noah had sent a voice message with an exact location. He explained that he and Ryan had been pursued, and to protect Ryan, he had drawn the attackers away, separating from him. The coordinates pinpointed Ryan's current location.Ryan was carrying the surveillance footage. Noah said he might not be able to retrieve him immediately, urging Arista to find someone to go quickly.Noah's coordinates were transferred directly to Nick's phone. But before Nick could give orders to Lenny, a sudden, muffled explosion shook the floor beneath them."Sir! Something's wrong!"Lenny's panicked voice came from the doorway. Ni

Khloe lifted her head and met Nick's eyes.The tension in his expression was palpable, but beneath it lay unwavering trust and encouragement.In that instant, courage ignited within her. She drew a deep breath, and each step forward was deliberate and unhesitating.When she had crossed just over halfway, Nick could no longer restrain himself. He leaned forward and grabbed the rope, even though it might pull him into danger as well.His arm muscles coiled like steel, veins standing out at his temple. His eyes never blinked as he focused entirely on her, inching her forward with painstaking care, refusing to allow a single misstep.As she neared the last few steps, Khloe closed her eyes and leapt toward him.Nick flinched but reacted instantly, catching her safely. Arista, behind them, also helped steady him.The short span of barely two meters felt like a journey across another world.Nick held her tightly, his heartbeat hammering in his chest. "It's okay… it's okay…" he murmure
