Semua Bab Billionaire's Match: Bab 931 - Bab 940

The topic instantly sparked everyone's excitement.Nick and Khloe's wedding had been grand, but it had also been intense—nerve-wracking and tense, leaving little room for relaxation. Everyone agreed that Michael and Winnie's wedding in Goldmont City should be the opposite: warm, casual, and easygoing.Voices overlapped as ideas bounced around, and before long, the discussion stretched over an hour.But having just finished Nick and Khloe's whirlwind celebration, Michael and Winnie weren't in a hurry. They preferred to wait a little, at least until the newlyweds had some time to recover.When the small gathering ended, Charlotte followed Arista's car back to the hotel, and Michael and Winnie left together. Only Michelle stayed in Jayelle City to meet a friend, arranging her own car."Lenny, give Michelle a ride," Khloe called out to Lenny.She had noticed the subtle tension between Lenny and Michelle lately. Whenever they were all together, Lenny would keep his distance if Michell

"Enough! Just call a cab already!"Michelle cut her friend off sharply.But Lenny had heard every word of their bickering.Before the two could continue squabbling, he had already stepped out of the car and begun loading the shopping bags into the trunk.Her friend laughed brightly at the sight. "Thank you so much!"Michelle glanced back just in time to see Lenny reaching for another bag, and she quickly protested, "I told you, I don't need your help! Can't you understand?""Miss Keller, it's nothing," Lenny said calmly, his tone polite but unmistakably businesslike. "Since Mr. and Mrs. Hunt have assigned me to escort you, I naturally have to see it through. And since your friend asked, if I refuse, I could get penalized."His words left no room for refusal. Michelle had no choice but to let him continue.Her friend seized the moment and climbed into the car.Lenny moved efficiently, handling the bags with practiced precision. Michelle had meant to thank him, but the words cau

"Edward, don't just drink your own—make a cocktail for our beautiful Michelle too!"Estelle caught Edward's glance and immediately paved the way for him.Edward snapped back to attention, nodded, and began mixing drinks with practiced ease. His movements were smooth, elegant, and captivating, drawing appreciative murmurs from the group.Soon, the cocktail was ready—a dazzling swirl of colors. He gently pushed it toward Michelle, his posture and tone both soft and teasingly intimate."Try it. It's not strong—perfect for you.""Thanks."Michelle's voice was calm as she took the glass, sipped delicately, then gave a quick thumbs-up in approval.Lenny, standing a short distance away, watched the scene, a flicker of shadow passing over his eyes before he deliberately looked elsewhere.The party quickly grew lively. Edward was the center of attention, always surrounded by chatting guests. Yet, his focus clearly lingered on Michelle; no matter whom he spoke with, he made sure Michelle

Lenny's eyes dimmed slightly. "I… I'm sorry. I was overthinking."Before he could finish, Michelle pressed her lips to his.The kiss came out of nowhere—fast, sudden, and utterly unanticipated.Lenny didn't even have time to react before Michelle pulled away and ran.The balcony door swung open behind her, letting the noisy music from inside flood the night air. For a moment, the world seemed to spin, and Lenny wondered if he'd imagined it.Had Michelle just kissed him?Rushing back into the living room, Michelle darted straight for the bathroom.She turned on the faucet and splashed cold water on her face again and again, until she finally looked up at the mirror.The reflection staring back was almost unrecognizable.Her hand went to her lips. The lipstick was smeared, leaving a faint shadow at the corner of her mouth. Her heart raced, her mind a chaotic mess.The image of that kiss replayed in her head, making her slap at the mirror in disbelief.What on earth had she don

Lenny hadn't even reached the gate of the complex when his legs gave out, and he could barely stand.Leaning against a streetlamp, he fumbled with his phone and called Michelle again. This time, the line connected."Where are you?" Michelle's voice came through, sharp with worry."I… I'm at the complex gate…" Lenny hesitated for a moment before adding, "Miss Keller… did you go back already?""Don't move. I'll come find you.""Miss Keller…"Before he could finish, the call ended."Lenny!"Footsteps pounded the pavement, and Michelle appeared beside him in an instant.Lenny looked up, stunned. His thoughts were sluggish, still fuzzy from the alcohol, and before he could react, Michelle had grabbed his arm and half-lifted him up, supporting most of his weight."Miss Keller… what are you doing here? Didn't Mr. Baxter drive you back?""Don't talk about that now! How much did you drink? Are you trying to kill yourself?!"Michelle half-dragged, half-carried him toward the gate. As
