Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 338

Chapter 338

But Trey knew this: Khloe had been willing to lower herself for him, to restrain her sharpness, to love him

without reservation.

Her love had been quiet and unassuming, yet it was the gentlest and most profound emotion he had ever known.

He didn’t realize it while he had it–but once it was gone, he felt just how precious it had been.

Perhaps the best things in life were always like that.

When Trey returned to the hospital room, Stella’s expression had softened considerably. Without Angela around, she seemed to breathe easier and freer.

Arthur’s eyes never left Trey. He seemed to want to say something, but his frail body made words difficult. Trey understood his father’s intent.

Right now, the company was what mattered most.

But Trey didn’t dare speak the truth.

They had no real power in the company. Khloe had introduced funds from god-knows-where, and that diluted the Fox family’s shares to nearly nothing. Years of accumulated wealth had almost vanished.

He had thought Khloe’s revenge would stop once she’d weakened him financially. But in just a few days, the Fox family’s core business had collapsed.

Employees and clients alike had abandoned the company. It was now little more than an empty shell, with only some debts remaining.

If this continued, the only possible outcome was bankruptcy—and the Fox family would be dragged into the

mess.

“Dad, focus on getting better. Khloe has returned to the company. At least there’s hope for a listing. Once things stabilize, we’ll find a way forward.”

Hearing this, Arthur’s expression didn’t improve much, but his breathing eased slightly.

Trey stayed in the room until his father fell asleep, then prepared to leave. Stella, keeping vigil, accompanied him only to the door.

“Is the company really… still okay?” she asked, worry in her eyes.

“Mom, take care of Dad. I’ll figure out the company…” Trey didn’t answer directly, but that alone was enough.

There wasn’t much they could do anymore. They were old; a second chance was far from easy. Trey, though still young, had a tarnished reputation in the business world of Goldmont City. If the company went under, it would be hard for him to just work for someone else.

Stella drew a deep breath and, after a moment of hesitation, suggested a begrudging idea. “Have you… considered getting back together with Khloe?”

Though she despised Khloe, when comparing her to Angela, Khloe had more use. At least she could support the company and benefit their family.

If Trey hadn’t deceived her so severely, perhaps she could have remained a dutiful, hardworking daughter-in- law for life.

Even if her family background wasn’t impressive, she was easy to control.

Back then, whenever Stella had a minor illness and went to the hospital, Khloe wouldn’t dare be insolent; she would obediently attend to her.

Now, the more Stella thought about it, the more she longed for those days. She cursed herself for not allowing Khloe and Trey to marry sooner-at least then she could have monitored them, ensured the marriage and the papers were done, instead of letting Trey create such a disastrous mess.

“She…” Trey couldn’t bring himself to admit that he had once pleaded with Khloe. A tight, oppressive weight settled in his chest.

Stella assumed he was too proud to admit it. She said, sulking, “I don’t want you to plead either. That girl is ungrateful this time, yes-but I thought about it. A woman deceived like that would naturally be angry. Besides, you did go too far… If Khloe didn’t care for you at all, how could she hate us this much?”

Trey still didn’t respond.
