Khloe's kiss carried no hint of teasing or provocation—only endless comfort, tender care, and a love so deep it could not dissolve.
After enduring her insistence for a brief moment, Nick's arms suddenly tightened. He tilted his head, parted his lips, and finally took control, deepening the kiss with a quiet, possessive intensity.
Selfishness, clumsiness... it didn't matter. He could no longer let go.
Downstairs, Michelle stood by the car, waiting for Khloe to emerge.
Minutes ticked by, one after another. Suddenly, the lights upstairs turned off.
Michelle's nails dug into her palms, her brows knitting together in disbelief.
How could this be...
"Miss Keller, I think it's time you let go of Mr. Hunt."
A calm male voice suddenly spoke from behind her.
Michelle turned, and there was Lenny, carrying a collection of medical supplies, toiletries, snacks, and drinks. Clearly, he was on his way to deliver them upstairs to Nick and Khloe.
"So many things? And all these snacks and sweets? Don't you know your boss doesn't eat late at night and doesn't even like sweets?"
Michelle smirked coldly, glancing at the shopping bags in his hands. She knew perfectly well the items weren't for Nick—yet she teased anyway.
Lenny glanced down at the bags. "My boss doesn't eat them, but his wife does. Her hands were injured, and the boss worried there might not be clean supplies for her. He sent me a message earlier. As for the sweets—she likes them, so now, he likes them too."
He deliberately detailed every point with precision.
Michelle's expression stiffened beyond control. "That's nonsense! They were clearly arguing—how could he have ordered all this for her?"
"Arguing doesn't mean anything, Miss Keller," Lenny said calmly. "When Miss Roswell arrived, the boss had already messaged me. When someone cares about you, even if you don't see them, you think of them instinctively. There's nothing more impossible to block with reason than true feelings."
