Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 392

Chapter 392

The top figures in Goldmont City’s tech industry had already introduced Barney.

Before the summit officially began, Khloe had taken the time to scan the companies attending. Solara Energy’s background was strong, and its field aligned with her interests.

She smiled and extended her hand. “Barney, it’s an honor. I’ve long admired your reputation and hope we’ll have a chance to collaborate.”

“Looks like you stole my line, Khloe,” Barney replied with a clear laugh. Behind his sleek glasses, his deep eyes met hers without hesitation.

Khloe smiled subtly, taking a business card from her assistant and handing it to him. Barney reciprocated immediately, offering his own card.

After a few polite words, Barney suddenly asked, “Khloe… have we met somewhere before?”

“Not that I recall,” Khloe replied, pausing slightly. She couldn’t help noticing how direct his gaze was.

Prompted by someone nearby, Barney quickly nodded apologetically. “Sorry, it must be a mistake. I don’t know why, but seeing you gives me a strange sense of familiarity… and comfort.”

Khloe had heard enough flattering lines to stay unfazed. She responded politely, “Then I suppose we’re destined to meet. I must admit, I find you quite approachable as well.”

Seizing the moment, Barney suggested dinner after the summit. Khloe shot her assistant a quick glance.

“Mr. Lemont, I’m afraid our schedule is packed today…” the assistant replied hastily.

Khloe raised a hand to stop him. “Barney, how long will you be in Goldmont City? Why not wait until I’m free, and I’ll extend an invite?”

“I’m here just for the summit. I leave tomorrow,” Barney said, reading the polite brush-off. He smiled and stepped down gracefully. “No matter. I have more business in Goldmont City in the future. Next time, Khloe, I’ll hold you to your promise.”

“Of course,” she replied.

Having finished with him, Khloe slipped away through a private passage.
