Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 267

Chapter 267

Charlotte felt her eyes grow warm; she had been shaken by his words, and immediately looked to Khloe for

support.

Seeing her reaction, Ethan’s anger flared even more. Charlotte had always seemed so bold-daring to cross him –but now, after offending him, she was whining like a helpless little puppy?

“Charlotte, if you’ve got guts, take me to court. And while you’re at it, do your job properly. Khloe might protect you now, but she won’t protect you forever.”

Ethan’s threat was raw and cutting, the coldness in his teeth-toned voice sharp enough to feel like it could crush her bones. Charlotte’s heart sank-but Khloe, enraged by Ethan, stepped forward.

“Ethan, have you forgotten what I said in the meeting?”

“Khloe, will you ever stop?” he snapped. He knew better than to push her too far-she held evidence of some of his dealings for Clarice. If she decided to use it, he would be in serious trouble.

Yet, no one had ever humiliated him like this before. Especially with Charlotte now biting back at him.

“Apologize.” Khloe’s voice was cold, clipped, and carried a commanding weight that made the air around her feel heavy.

HR had intended to mediate but fell silent, seeing Khloe and Ethan locked in a standoff.

Seeing them stalemated, Charlotte couldn’t bear it any longer and subtly tugged on Khloe’s sleeve. If this went on… better to let it be.

“Fine. I’m sorry.”

Finally, Ethan’s anger twisted into a humorless smile. He arched an eyebrow and muttered an apology to Charlotte-but the apology didn’t comfort her at all.

“An apology needs sincerity. At the very least, you must know whom you’re apologizing to, and it must be acceptable to them.” Khloe said firmly, tugging Charlotte along. “Come on, let’s leave. Looks like Ethan won’t apologize properly.”

“Charlotte…” Ethan closed his eyes briefly, stubborn pride still burning in him. He bit his lip, his tone softening.

“I was wrong before. I shouldn’t have… I shouldn’t have harassed you or forced you to do anything. I sincerely apologize and hope you can forgive me. It won’t happen again.”

Charlotte followed Khloe silently, saying nothing. Though his attitude had softened, the intensity in his gaze toward her was frightening.

Khloe held her hand tightly and paused for only a moment, never once looking at Ethan. Instead, she addressed

“Did you hear that? Ethan has apologized. Follow the proper procedures and enforce company regulations strictly.”

HR quickly stood, nodding. “Yes, Miss Roswell.”

Once Khloe and Charlotte left, she hesitated for a moment before approaching Ethan.

“Mr. Morrison… you really don’t need to worry too much. Harassing a colleague or mishandling confidential information usually means suspension or a red-level punishment. But with Clarice and the board supporting you … it should just be a formality.”

She hadn’t dared speak about the punishment directly-but under Khloe’s pressure, she had no choice. And today’s meeting had followed company protocol-so if Ethan refused to admit fault, that would have been one thing. But he apologized willingly… leaving the matter indisputable.

“Trying to fire me?” Ethan muttered, watching Khloe leave. His half-smile was sharp and mocking.

HR shook her head frantically. “N-no…”

“Following company protocol might take some time to process, but you probably… won’t need that long.”
