Billionaire's Match (Khloe and Nick Hunt) novel Chapter 918

Chapter 918

Khloe held Nick’s hand as they walked slowly toward Angela.

“Do you think we’d let you get carried away without reason?” Nick’s voice was calm, cold, and cutting. “If it didn’t feel real, how could you have been so recklessly smug? Because the livestream was delayed by an hour, the people in the banquet hall… were all actors.”

Seeing that Angela still clung to illusions, Nick explained the details with deliberate coldness.

The wedding was scheduled to start in an hour. There had originally been a simple rehearsal in the hall, but when the crisis struck, Nick canceled it on the spot. He pulled a random group of people from Lucas’s team to fill the hall.

As for the families and friends, since there was no time to inform them, Nick used their genuine emotions to stage an impromptu performance.

By now, Lenny, who had received updates, had already briefed everyone else.

“Liars… you’re all liars…”

Angela’s facial muscles twitched violently. She couldn’t accept it-she had been fooled again! 1

“Ah”

She lunged toward Khloe, struggling wildly, but the people behind her held her down with iron grip.

“Khloe! Nick! You plotted against me! I curse you may you die in torment! Even as a ghost, I won’t let you go-”

Though her struggles were futile, Nick instinctively pulled Khloe into his arms, shielding her. Angela’s curses soon faded into the distance.

Once the scene was cleared, the police arrived to check on Nick and Khloe. After a brief record of the situation, they left. 1

“You two go on ahead. I’ll handle the aftermath.

Lucas helped them into the car and checked the time. The wedding would officially begin in half an hour. Though they wouldn’t make it on time, arriving late was better than not at all.

“By the way… Barney…” Khloe’s thoughts immediately went to the man being rushed to the ambulance. Her chest tightened. Though the antidote had been administered, there was no telling whether he was out of danger yet.

“Don’t worry. Barney has been taken to the nearest hospital. I’ll keep an eye on him. You two take care of your own matters first.

With that, Lucas closed the car door. Nick exchanged a glance of gratitude with him before wrapping Khloe in his arms once

more.

Only now did Khloe truly feel her soul settle back into her body. She had maintained a composed front earlier, but it would be a lie to say she hadn’t been afraid. She was carrying a little life inside her, and today was too important a day. Even a meticulously prepared plan could not erase the lingering fear after such a close call.

Nick felt the same, naturally. But both of them had long entrusted their backs to each other. No matter how sudden the danger, their coordination was instinctive.

He ran his fingertip along Khloe’s perfectly made-up features, his Adam’s apple bobbing as he leaned in to kiss the corner of her lips. More than any words could say, his pounding heart said it all.

Khloe’s hand rested over his on her chest. His heart was still racing, nowhere near calm.

“Sorry… for making you worry again…” she whispered.

“Do we even need to say that to each other?” Nick cut in gently. “You did perfect this time. Because you know-your decision is my decision.”

They didn’t need formalities anymore. Khloe knew it clearly: even if the wedding was ruined, they would face the fallout together. That trust was all the reward he needed.
