Billionaire's Match (Khloe and Nick Hunt) novel Chapter 907

Chapter 907

At this moment, aside from apologizing, Barney didn’t dare say anything else.

“I never had any expectations to begin with. So how could there be disappointment?” Khloe spoke lightly.

Barney’s lashes trembled. A flicker of complicated emotion passed through his eyes before sinking into a deep, endless desolation.

“You’re right,” he muttered.

“Focus on your recovery,” she said.

Khloe felt a heaviness in her chest as well. Seeing him lying there, weak and barely alive, pained her. But asking her to accept him as a brother… to interact with him as family—it was simply too awkward. ·

Barney parted his lips, but no words of protest or plea came out. All he could do was watch her figure fade into the distance.

Nick had been standing outside the ward the entire time, never moving.

The moment Khloe stepped out, he walked up and took her hand.

Her fingertips were cold. Her expression was calm, but she looked utterly exhausted.

“Are you alright?” he asked softly, enclosing her chilled hand in his palm to warm it.

Khloe nodded and forced a small smile. “Let’s go

Only after getting into the car did she finally relax, leaning her head against Nick’s shoulder and closing her eyes.

Nick stroked her long hair. “If you’re tired, get some sleep. I’m here.”

Khloe played absently with his broad hand, not opening her eyes.

“Nick… it’s really nice having you with me.”

“Same here.”

He lowered his head and pressed a gentle kiss to the top of her head.

The voice on the other end trembled. Nick’s gaze nstantly turned cold.

With the wedding approaching, Angela might not be able to stir up a storm in Jayelle City, but she was still a potential threat. So Nick had taken the opportunity to have her detained. Whatever charge they used didn’t matter-he had intended to send her to a detention center

first.

But he hadn’t expected her to escape midway. After all, she was just a woman. His men hadn’t been particularly guarded.

When their vehicle passed through a construction zone, one of the tires had an issue. While someone got out to check, Angela suddenly yanked open the door and bolted.

There were barricades and drainage ditches nearby. By the time they chased after her, she had already disappeared without a trace.

“Find her before the wedding. If you don’t, don’t bother coming back to work.” 1

Nick’s tone remained calm, but the fingers gripping his phone had turned pale at the joints. He didn’t give the other side a chance to respond before hanging up.

Angela alone wasn’t much of a threat, but her escape at a time like this left Nick uneasy.

His people weren’t incompetent. Even if they had been careless for a moment, there was no way they still hadn’t found her by now.
