Billionaire's Match (Khloe and Nick Hunt) novel Chapter 1163

"I don't care whether you kill me or cut me up as you please. But listen to me—if you dare touch even a single hair on my head, you and Khloe, and your Morrison family…"

Ariana was already on the verge of tears. Her lashes fluttered rapidly, her eyes rimmed with red.

Yet, she still forced herself to hold on to her pride, gritting out each word one by one.

Ethan didn't bother responding at all. He rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward. Before he even reached her, Ariana collapsed onto the ground with a thud.

Her words broke off mid-sentence. She curled into herself, hands clamping over her head as she sobbed uncontrollably.

The arrogant heiress from earlier now looked utterly fragile, and for a brief moment, even Ethan felt a trace of reluctant sympathy.

He crouched down, one hand slipping into his pocket.

From the corner of her eye, Ariana caught the movement and screamed, scrambling to run.

Ethan reacted instantly, grabbing her arm.

"Relax. I'm not going to do anything to you. After you listen to this, you can leave."

Ariana kept her eyes shut tight. Only after hearing his words did she cautiously open them to look at him.

Sure enough, what Ethan held was only a recording pen.

Seeing her calm slightly, he released her and pressed play.

Trey's voice immediately filled the room. The contents were from his recent phone call with Khloe.

Barney had given Trey a choice between Ariana and his family. Without hesitation, Trey had chosen his family.

Even though every word he said framed it as helpless and forced… there was not a trace of concern for Ariana.
