Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 272

Chapter 272

Any delay now would trigger an unstoppable cascade of losses for the Fox Group. If the consequences were severe enough, the company might not even survive.

Trey transferring shares to Khloe at this moment wasn’t just about saving the Fox family’s face-it was also a way to ensure Khloe would return to the company.

The project had exploded because the new team couldn’t fix the loopholes. But Khloe’s ability to salvage projects and recover data was unparalleled. In Fox Group’s darkest days, it had been her who turned crises into triumphs.

With time running out, Arthur had no choice but to bow and compromise. Clearly, the company couldn’t afford to be without Khloe.

“What are you doing?”

When Trey returned to his room, he found Angela rifling through his usual briefcase.

“Nothing,” Angela stammered, quickly picking up the bag. “I just wanted to tidy up a bit… and I saw some little bugs in here.”

“I told you not to touch my things.”

Trey didn’t have the patience for Angela now. He sank into the sofa, loosening his collar, and let out a long breath. His mind was consumed with one thought: how to win back Khloe’s trust tomorrow.

Angela set the items down and, seeing the grim expression on his face, guessed it was about Khloe. The past few days had left her tense and uneasy.

She feared Khloe exposing their private matters-but even more, she didn’t want Trey to be manipulated or the Fox Group controlled by Khloe. Yet, the situation was out of her hands.

In the wake of the company’s recent upheaval, Arthur had repeatedly urged her to consider the bigger picture, to think of Trey first, and to stabilize Khloe for the good of the company.

Earlier that day, before Trey returned, she had even heard from Lauren that Hunt Group had pulled its investment.

Though Angela hated to admit it, at a critical moment like this, Khloe was indeed indispensable. Even if she had acquired her shares, what could she realistically do? The company’s IPO was far off; Khloe’s return to Fox Group was simply to salvage the project, to fight the hardest, most exhausting battles again.

Angela, with Pete by her side, remained the true Mrs. Fox. The family would know where their loyalties lay. Even for purely pragmatic reasons, Khloe couldn’t swallow such a large piece of the pie-she would eventually reach

a dead end.

With the situation analyzed, Angela managed to suppress her anger for the time being.

“Has Khloe still refused to accept your apology?” she asked.

“She said she’d come to the office tomorrow morning.”

Angela was slightly taken aback. “She’s coming back already?”

“Yes, now that she’s received fifty percent of the company’s shares. Fox Group is her life’s work too. If it goes public, she’ll be the biggest beneficiary. Even if she weren’t doing it for personal feelings-”

Trey’s gaze darkened, and an uncomfortable sense of unease prickled at him. “She’d still be doing it for the sake of her own interests.”
