Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 130

Chapter 130

“When will this endless cycle finally end?” Angela sniffled softly, knowing that pushing back aggressively wouldn’t work.

She felt a pang of helplessness. Trey’s mind was completely consumed by Khloe, and she had no intention of pushing him further toward her rival.

“Thank you for everything,” Trey murmured, squeezing Angela’s hand. His tone was tender, but beneath the surface, his heart had gone completely still-his thoughts were all on Khloe.

Just moments ago, as he swiped his card at the hospital, he’d noticed an unexpected addition to his account: a luxury health checkup package. He hadn’t purchased it himself. When he asked the hospital staff, he learned that Khloe had bought it for him a month ago.

He remembered the time he’d gone several days without eating properly due to work, only to end up hospitalized with stomach cramps after drinking too much at a social event. Khloe had been beside herself with worry. Ever since then, she had insisted on attending all such events, drinking in his stead, eventually surpassing him in tolerance.

To monitor his health, she would schedule regular checkups and accompany him each time. Always, she made the appointments first and then pulled him along.

Thinking of this, warmth crept quietly through Trey’s chest. He suddenly missed Khloe more than ever.

The next evening, Trey arrived in a rush at the Grand Hall of the National Conference Center.

The potential business partner he wanted to secure was hosting a dinner here tonight, and he had been called by a middleman.

The instant he entered the VIP room, Khloe appeared almost simultaneously, stepping into a nearby VIP room herself. She wore a delicate lavender tulle dress and carried a rhinestone-studded clutch.

Earlier, Loretta had called. The Hunt family was hosting a small family gathering; Arista’s relatives had come to Goldmont City. Arista’s family ran one of the country’s top commercial groups, though their businesses were mostly in other states.

They were visiting not only to see Arista but also because they’d heard about Nick’s engagement and wanted to meet the couple.

The hotel’s proximity to the Morrison estate and the congeniality of Arista’s relatives made Loretta comfortable asking Khloe to join for the meal. She was concerned that the relatives could be tiresome and that Khloe might feel out of place.

On the phone, Loretta told Khloe to make herself comfortable and that attendance was optional, especially since Nick wouldn’t be there.

But the thought of Nick’s absence made Khloe feel she should come. Arista had always treated her kindly, and she didn’t want to disappoint her.

True to expectation, Arista was delighted to see Khloe. She seated her nearby and introduced her to several respected elders, praising Khloe’s intelligence, poise, and thoughtfulness at every opportunity.

Arista’s family elders were immediately taken with Khloe. Her beauty surpassed every socialite they had previously considered for Nick.

“Come, Khloe, I prepared a small gift for you. Take it. If you ever need anything, just come to me-don’t hesitate!”

Arista’s brother, Liam Collins, eagerly presented Khloe with a lavish gift: a beautifully carved wooden box. Inside were two sets of gold jewelry, crafted specifically for her wedding-complete with other hairpieces, earrings, and accessories.

“Liam might not be the most inventive, but he hired the finest artisans to make these for you. They’re one-of-a- kind in the world. See if you like them,” Arista said, smiling warmly.

Khloe’s heart fluttered, and her cheeks flushed. She hurriedly thanked them.
