Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 367

Chapter 367

“Okay, but just for an hour at most,” Khloe said.

Before leaving for the bar, Khloe had sent Nick a message, telling him not to wait up for her and to get some rest. She was going to spend a little time with a friend before heading back.

Nick’s reply came almost instantly.

Nick: [Okay.]

A pang of guilt twisted in Khloe’s chest. Nick had been waiting for her, and she felt it keenly—but then she thought of Michelle, and it was like a small thorn pricked at her heart.

Better to let herself ease her emotions first, she decided, rather than risk Nick noticing anything later and worrying.

On the other side, Nick stared at his phone, his expression darkening slightly.

“I reserved the big room, for ten people.”

Late at night, a stylish, retro-themed music bar welcomed a group of guests.

At the front, a married couple approached the hostess and instructed her to open the reserved private room.

The hostess led everyone inside, and the couple split up: the woman accompanied the others to the room, while the man stayed at the entrance.

“Trey.”

Trey, standing at the door with a cigarette, stubbed out the last bit in his hand when he saw the guy approach.

The dinner had just ended, and this was the second round-they were here to drink, chat, and catch up.

This time, the couple had invited several close friends-some Trey knew well, some not so much. Trey’s situation was known to a few, but he had arrived alone. Khloe wasn’t around, and everyone tacitly avoided mentioning her.

“I… actually have a favor to ask,” Trey said, hesitating for a moment.

During dinner, he hadn’t found the right chance, but now he had a moment alone with the man. He quickly explained: he and Khloe were having a quarrel, and he hoped the man could get his wife to reach out to Khloe, help contact her, maybe even persuade her to meet him.

Khloe valued relationships, and a request from an old classmate might at least get her to come out for a meeting. If the man’s wife were willing to act as a mediator, that would be even better.

The man’s eyes flickered with surprise at Trey’s words, but he agreed without hesitation. Such a small favor, he reasoned, his wife couldn’t possibly refuse.

Khloe had always been close to the couple, acting as a kind of matchmaker for them in the past. Later, she changed her number, and only Trey had kept their contact. They hadn’t been in touch until now.

In fact, the man’s wife had been looking forward to reconnecting with Khloe. Now that the couple had returned to the country, having an old friend around would make things more pleasant.

Once the man agreed, Trey immediately handed over Khloe’s contact and prepared to leave–but the man wouldn’t let him go. He insisted that Trey stay for a few drinks. Unable to refuse, Trey reluctantly stepped into the bar.

Coincidentally, just before they entered, Khloe and Winnie had been shown to a table near the bar. They weren’t reserving a private room-just a casual spot to have a drink.

“Khloe, why are you helping me?”
