All Chapters of Billionaire's Match: Chapter 811 - Chapter 820

Ethan strode through the crowd, clad in a crisp new suit, his shirt collar open high, revealing a long, pale neck tilted slightly back. Surrounded by aides who greeted him respectfully at every opportunity, his face was alight with self-satisfaction.Charlotte froze, about to step forward—but a hand held her back."Ethan is now acting CEO of Morrison Group indefinitely. Don't start anything."Everyone on their team had been personally chosen by Khloe; they all knew that Ethan's return spelled trouble. But with Khloe absent, this was no time for Charlotte to act recklessly. They only wanted to keep her safe.Although the contracts Khloe had drafted for Clarice's assets were still frozen, Morrison Group's authority had effectively been handed over to Clarice. Even though Clarice was under investigation and couldn't return in person, she had authorized Ethan to act on her behalf. That made him, at least on paper, the legitimate CEO.Yet, everyone understood why Ethan had returned now

Lucas knew Nick's temper all too well. His phone kept ringing, but Nick had already switched it off, gripping the wheel and pressing on alone.Ahead, the road was about to enter a desolate stretch. Lucas had few men to spare, and even if the other party wasn't deliberately leading them into a trap, he wasn't willing to risk it without certainty.Nick understood. Lucas, though a friend, had to prioritize his subordinates. So halfway through, Nick made Lucas's team pull over and leave by the roadside. He had to go alone on this trip.Fire, blades, or traps—none of it mattered. As long as Khloe was in danger, he wouldn't gamble on "what if."Over an hour later, exhaustion began to set in. Nick bit down hard on his palm until the metallic taste of blood filled his mouth. The sharp pain quelled the uncontrollable tremors shaking his body.Suddenly, the vehicle ahead disappeared into a narrow dirt trail. Nick accelerated, following swiftly. But in the next moment, the path ended abruptl

Khloe's voice grew colder, harder, each word edged with ice. Tears streamed down her cheeks, her eyes red and glimmering.Nick's gaze mirrored hers—equally bloodshot, equally intense. His brow furrowed as he took slow, deliberate steps toward her.The distance between them closed rapidly. Khloe instinctively wanted to look away, unsure how to face him, still raw from the whirlwind of emotions.In the next instant, Nick grabbed her wrist, yanking her forcefully toward him. His other arm wrapped tightly around her waist, trapping her completely in his embrace.She struggled instinctively—but before she could push him away, his lips crashed onto hers.For a heartbeat, she froze. Then, instinctively, she slammed her fists against his chest.The harder she fought, the deeper he kissed her—fierce, relentless, as if madness had overtaken him. His tongue swept greedily and shamelessly over hers, tasting the coppery tang of blood from the cut inside his mouth. The metallic flavor made her

Nick fumbled, hastily wiping the tears from her cheeks. Frustration and guilt surged through him, and he grabbed Khloe's hand, pounding it against his chest."It's my fault… I deserve this!""You are not allowed to say that word again!" Khloe snapped, more anxious than before.He froze. She wrenched her hand free and shoved him, and he stumbled back against the wall. Silver moonlight spilled through the window, pooling over the two of them, their entwined forms caught in its glow."Fine… I won't say it," he murmured, his gaze dark and heavy, brows furrowed. Every piece of his heart felt fractured, shattered by a mixture of guilt and longing."Nick, you are my husband." Khloe leaned forward, her small frame pressing against his broad chest like a kitten climbing into its owner's embrace. Yet, even through her reddened eyes, every word rang with authority, every syllable brimming with conviction."I'll say it again: what I want is a husband with blood in his veins, a man who feels

Soon, Lucas arrived to pick them up.Nick and Khloe were still entwined inside the room, reluctant to part. The door was tightly shut. Lucas didn't barge in—he knocked politely to announce himself, then stepped outside with his men to wait. He knew this was a moment Nick would want to savor, and as a good friend, he didn't want to ruin it.Over the past few days, Lucas's impression of Nick had been completely overturned. He had thought Nick was like him—a cold, calculating man who placed profit above everything. He hadn't expected Nick to be so profoundly passionate.Lucas also couldn't help but envy him. Finding someone who truly understands your heart in a lifetime is rare. And here they were, going to such lengths to finally be together. Khloe's resolve for Nick was equally steadfast.He lit a cigarette and inhaled deeply, realizing something: Nick had come alone, fully aware of the risks, probably seeing through everything in advance.Heh. These two knew each other far too w
