Billionaire's Match (Khloe and Nick Hunt) novel Chapter 934

Chapter 934

The moment Edward appeared, Michelle’s friend, Estelle Rexton, immediately launched into introductions.

Lenny, following etiquette, greeted him politely, but Edward was strikingly forward. With a natural familiarity, he wrapped an arm around Lenny and steered him inside.

“Mr. Baxter…” Lenny started, slightly stiff.

“Don’t be shy,” Edward interrupted smoothly. “It’s all girls at the party today. Consider yourself my wingman.”

Lenny had no choice but to follow him into the room.

Estelle immediately locked the door. Michelle caught Edward glancing back; he and Estelle exchanged a knowing look. In an instant, Michelle caught onto the little scheme her friend had been hatching.

She quickly grabbed her friend’s arm. “Why did you force Lenny to stay? Don’t tell me… you’ve got a thing for him?”

Estelle’s romantic flings were never long-lasting-she loved to play. Shopping aside, she had a hobby for collecting handsome men, and Lenny happened to be a blind spot she wanted to explore.

A sharp-suited elite assistant, young and handsome, honest and sincere-three rare qualities all in one man. It was the perfect target for her type.

Over the years, Edward had worked with Estelle on business projects, and they were old classmates, so their relationship was fairly close. But they weren’t each other’s “type,” so they had almost become like siblings. Now, whenever Estelle pouted or schemed, Edward knew exactly what she was up to. That’s why he had immediately helped her keep Lenny there.

Michelle, slower to catch on, only realized it now.

Estelle, unbothered, gave a shy smile. “Don’t you think Lenny’s really handsome?”

“He’s Nick’s assistant! He’s very professional.” Michelle’s face darkened instantly.

“I know that! I’m just saying… if both parties are willing, why not have a little fun? Flirt a bit-if it doesn’t work out, no harm done. I’m not forcing him, so why are you so flustered?”

“He… he’s off-limits! Don’t even think about him!”

Michelle was adamant.

“Why?”

“Because he’s not suitable for you. If you toy with him, he might not be able to handle it.”

Estelle stared at her like she’d gone mad.

Michelle felt a pang of guilt under that gaze. “Why are you staring at me like that?”

“Something’s off,” Estelle said, touching her chin thoughtfully. “You’re acting weird.”

“How am I acting weird?”

“The Michelle I know always encourages me-if I like someone, go for it. And he’s just an assistant. You know him well enough to say he can’t handle it? I’m rich and beautiful. Maybe I can offer him more than Nick ever did. If he wants, he could even become my assistant,” Estelle said with a teasing shrug.

Michelle was left speechless, unable to explain herself.

At that moment, the other friends in the room gathered around, and the topic abruptly ended. Michelle was gently pulled toward the bar area.

Edward had just handed Lenny a vibrantly colored cocktail and held one himself. The two were talking quietly. Lenny accepted the drink but didn’t sip it immediately.

A few of the girls, curious about the newcomer, struck up conversations with him, occasionally teasing him. Lenny looked stiff, clearly unaccustomed to such social settings.
