Chapter 881

Whether it was navigating interpersonal relationships or mastering professional skills, Winnie was adapting remarkably well.Khloe chose to let her fight her own battles—not just out of trust, but because… if Winnie remained stuck in the past, any help would be meaningless.But now, Winnie was growing. Her approach to her feelings for Michael showed it clearly. She was no longer the girl who retreated and surrendered at the first sign of hardship, wallowing in self-pity. She had become someone capable of confronting her emotions, pursuing what she wanted, and discerning when to hold on and when to let go."Good."Khloe clinked her glass with Winnie's, celebrating the confidence radiating from her friend at this very moment."Once you pass your assessment and secure your position, the choice will be entirely in your hands. Marriage, career… you'll face them all with much more assurance."Winnie nodded, a spark lighting her eyes. "Yes, that's exactly how I feel."Once she could re

Nick went over every detail with meticulous care—from the seating arrangements for the guests to the wedding timeline down to the very minute, from the coordination of their outfits to even the playlist for the ceremony… everything had been considered thoroughly.Listening to him, Khloe began to feel her head spin. She quickly pressed her hand against Nick's arm."I think everything's fine. You decide—it's your call."Nick smiled, immediately catching the hint of resistance in his wife's eyes."Alright," he said."Nick…" Khloe called softly again."Hmm?""I miss you.""I'm right here.""I still miss you. When you're in front of me, when we're together… even when we're kissing, I miss you."Her voice grew lower, each word drawing closer to him. By the time she finished, the corner of her mouth had brushed against his jaw, lingering near his ear.The teasing pull of her words was irresistible. Nick cupped the back of her head and returned the kiss with equal fervor. Papers and

"Charging your own wife a premium? That's not how it works," Nick murmured, his fingers brushing a stray lock of hair behind her ear with gentle precision. "This… this is just reasonable compensation."He pulled her closer, tucking the blanket around them."Sleep now. Tomorrow holds a lot to do."Two days later, Winnie's probation evaluation officially began.After written tests and performance presentations, the process quickly moved to the final stage. Khloe reviewed the department's scoring report on Winnie—every rating was excellent. Among all probationary employees, Winnie's professional test scores were at the very top.She had truly earned her place in the Morrison Group.Khloe signed her name with decisive strokes. She didn't delegate the notification to department heads; she messaged Winnie personally, inviting her to celebrate after work.At the moment, Winnie was having dinner with her colleagues. When she received Khloe's message, she replied instantly. She had wante

Maybe she was just being overly sensitive, but Winnie couldn't shake the feeling that Michael had been a little distant these past couple of days.Even when they weren't seeing each other, Michael would usually flood her with messages every day, sometimes leaving her wishing they could just stay on the phone forever. But these last two days had been different.He claimed it was so she could focus on preparing for her assessment; they'd barely exchanged a word. He even promised that once she passed, they'd celebrate together.Yet now, with the assessment over, his response was far cooler than she had expected.Winnie quickly pushed her disappointment aside. Michael was under a lot of pressure too—she couldn't expect his mood to mirror hers.As the workday wound down, Khloe sent her a message: meet her in the garage.Winnie assumed it was just a dinner outing, so when she got in the car, she announced, "Tonight's bill is on me. You're not allowed to fight me over it—or I won't come

"Keep your voice down…" Winnie frowned again, warning Michael.A faint smile tugged at the corner of his lips. Without another word, he cupped her face and kissed her, silencing the words still on her lips.Her lashes fluttered as her hands immediately clutched his arm. Shocked, she dared not make a sound.Michael, however, seemed almost insane. One light kiss wasn't enough—he pressed closer, claiming inch after inch as if unleashing a hunger he could no longer restrain.Eventually, Winnie had no choice but to jab him sharply in the waist.Michael frowned. The pressure of her hand made his whole body tremble."Michael… don't—"Seizing the brief pause, Winnie pushed him away."Winnie, you hurt me."His voice was low and steady, but before he could continue, she reached for his tie, pulling him down toward her lips."Stop it. If your dad hears, all our efforts will have been for nothing…""But I missed you. I finally get to see you. Don't push me away."Hearing the hoarse mur

"So… the herbal broths and tonics I've been having every day these past few days—was that you?" Oscar asked again.His voice carried no emotion, yet the weight behind it pressed down on her like a heavy hand.Winnie, however, felt no guilt. These past few nights, Michael had stayed here to care for his father, and she could offer little help. She remembered that when she was little, her mother had left behind recipes for medicinal soups and tonics.So she had tried making a few herself and arranged for them to be delivered daily to Oscar, a small way to share in their filial duty.What she hadn't expected was for Oscar to know."Yes… that was me," she admitted, nodding. Then she hurriedly added, "But, please don't be upset. I wasn't trying to interfere. Recently, Michael and I haven't been seeing each other…"Seeing her so cautious, Khloe and Michael exchanged a glance. Neither of them offered a word of support.Oscar's gaze stayed cold and assessing, showing no trace of the ind

Oscar began to wonder if he had been too harsh on Michael. He also started reconsidering Khloe's words—perhaps she had a point.But words once spoken are like water spilled; it's never easy to find a graceful way to take them back.Khloe had anticipated this and came prepared with a masterstroke.Oscar's once-proud foreign trade business had long since hit a ceiling, breaking even year after year. The brand was old, but its glory days were long gone. Meanwhile, the Hunt Group had risen as a new force, with business lines perfectly complementing Oscar's. Add Lucas's commercial resources in Naraida, and the proposition became irresistible.Nick proposed that if Michael and Winnie stayed married, the Hunt Group would link its business networks to Oscar's operations, creating mutual benefits. All of Nick's international resources would also be shared.For a business titan like Oscar, now in the twilight of his career, there was no way to resist such an offer.Previously, he had tried

Winnie quickly waved her hands, afraid the father and son would clash again because of her."No, no, I don't need any 'fee for changing the terms of address' or anything like that. As long as you're willing… Dad."She spoke, then lowered her head, feeling a little embarrassed.Though Oscar found Michael's love-struck antics irritating, he was now in a state of acceptance toward Winnie. Listening to her speak made him feel a rare sense of ease.He cleared his throat gently and looked at Khloe.Khloe understood immediately. She slipped into her assistant role, retrieved a black card from Oscar's drawer—already prepared for this moment—and handed it to Winnie.Winnie's eyes widened."This…""This is a gift from Uncle Oscar to you. Consider it a gift for officially meeting his daughter-in-law," Khloe said softly, her gaze shifting from Winnie to Michael.Michael looked surprised. This was a private arrangement between Khloe and Oscar; he had no idea it even existed.Winnie quickl

Khloe knew Winnie too well—too well to not anticipate that Winnie would feel guilty from being touched."Once you reclaim your mother's inheritance, the pharmaceutical patents must be tied to Morrison Group. And now that you've passed your assessment, you'll need to work even harder for me. I want you and your team to develop better medicines, cut costs, improve efficiency, and help me reach Morrison Group's next goal as soon as possible."Khloe's words were firm, yet when she lifted her hand to smooth Winnie's hair, her gaze was full of the indulgent affection of an older sister.Winnie froze for a moment, then nodded firmly. "Since you trust me, I will never let you down."With their gratitude expressed, they couldn't wait to go home.Oscar had already arranged for someone to tidy up and redecorate the couple's sweet little nest. Even Michael had no idea—when they stepped inside, surprises awaited at every turn.Rose petals were scattered across the entrance carpet, forming a p

"What is it?"Nick lowered his gaze, and in an instant, his expression softened back into that familiar mixture of tenderness and mischief. His long fingers traced lightly over Khloe's face."You're fine demanding interest from me, but now, you're really going to settle accounts with Michael too?""Of course. Even brothers need clear accounts." Nick said lightly, unbothered.Khloe chuckled, and she reached over to pinch his face—though his slender features barely had an ounce of flesh to squeeze."Nick, we've only been married for a short time, and you're already showing your true colors?"He let her fidget with him, smiling even more indulgently. "My true colors?""You care more about profits than feelings! You even tally up accounts with my family. Does that mean one day you'll do the same with me?" Khloe feigned irritation, letting out a soft hum of disapproval."Never."Nick tilted his body down, pressing her gently into his chest, leaving a trail of heavy kisses along her
