Billionaire's Match (Khloe and Nick Hunt) novel Chapter 916

Chapter 916

“How come you’re so late? You took forever.” Khloe’s voice carried a hint of playful reproach, her lips curving into an

irresistible smile.

The man before her froze, pupils dilating with shock. From the depths of Khloe’s gaze, he caught sight of another figure standing behind him.

The next instant, a cold gun barrel pressed against the back of his head.

“Sorry. First time being a groom-there’s a lot to handle today.”

The voice was teasing, calm… impossibly familiar. It was Nick. At the wedding, right when it had just begun… he shouldn’t even be here, yet here he was.

“No… no way…” the man stammered, disbelief rooting him to the spot.

“Not possible?” Nick’s voice was low, confident. “Nothing is impossible.”

At that moment, more reinforcements stormed into the warehouse.

“Get Barney onto the ambulance!”

It was Lucas’s voice.

Barney was rescued and loaded into the waiting ambulance. Angela, realizing the situation, tried to flee but was forcibly held

down.

Seeing Lucas’s men arrive, Nick lowered his gun and returned it to them. He quickly grasped Khloe’s hand, ensuring she was unharmed before finally exhaling.

“You really scared me. If you keep pulling stunts like this, I’ll have to keep nitroglycerin tablets on me like Grandma.”

His voice softened as he held her hand. Khloe smiled and embraced him.

“Good thing you’re here. I knew you could handle anything.”

The captured man, staring at his fallen companion, still couldn’t comprehend what had happened.

“Why… why did this happen? Didn’t you announce the wedding was canceled?”

Lucas approached, smirking. “Still don’t get it? With the intellect you guys have, and yet, you still try to pull this kind of stunt— aren’t you overestimating yourselves?”

Nick cradled Khloe and subtly shifted her to his side.

Her delicate arm emerged from beneath his embrace, and on her wrist gleamed a broad, diamond-studded watch.

At first glance, it seemed like a luxury accessory, But closer inspection revealed the dial held not numbers, but tiny red and blue lights. Blue indicated real-time location, red indicated a micro camera.

It was a gift from Noah before he left-a parting present for Khloe, though at the time he had been vague. She’d thought it was a defensive weapon, like a dagger.

Later, she discovered it was actually a sophisticated tracker. The instruction manual explained that the watch had been upgraded to transmit live location signals and capture video.

They’d provoked Lacuna, and in case of emergencies, precautions were necessary. Noah couldn’t attend their wedding, but this gift served both as a protective charm for Khloe and a symbolic wedding gift.

Two days ago, after learning of Angela’s disappearance, Nick and Khloe had already planned a preemptive security scheme for the wedding. They couldn’t have anticipated the events today, but having faced danger in Naraida, they had safeguards in place

for a wedding of such importance.

Nick had flagged potential threats from Lacuna and requested police assistance, then coordinated with Lucas to deploy personnel across the city. Any emergency could be met instantly.

That’s why the people who just stormed in weren’t Lucas’s men-they were police. Nick’s armed actions against the assailants were legally justified self-defense under police support.
