Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 45

Chapter 45

Khloe’s voice was calm, almost slow as she spoke and by the time she finished, someone had already checked the facts online.

“It’s true! That Morrison heiress is a total fraud!”

No photos, no extra info-she hadn’t appeared publicly yet. But the charity gala report clearly mentioned that Niel Morrison’s daughter, the heiress, was attending for the first time.

Denise lost her balance completely and fell to the floor with a thud. It wasn’t losing a thousand dollars that hurt- it was the shock of being humiliated so fast and so publicly.

Tina, ever warm-hearted, didn’t join the others in mocking Denise. Instead, she quickly grabbed the phone and tried calling the “heiress” again-but this time, it wouldn’t go through. Denise had already been blocked.

“Denise, you’d better call the police,” Tina said, handing the phone back. Denise’s eyes were blank, unfocused, as if she had already lost her grip on reality.

Then Khloe stepped forward, approaching her with quiet confidence.

Denise stiffened, forcing herself to speak.

“Khloe, even if I was duped, you’re not exactly innocent! You’re married and living off your husband, yet you have the nerve to brag about knowing the Morrison family? Prove it then, if you’re so capable!”

Denise wasn’t wrong-she had been deceived. But Khloe? Her whole act was pure projection, an image she had carefully constructed.

“Forget it. Khloe, don’t push it. You and Denise are both at fault here. Just apologize and let it go.”

One of the classmates who had been trying to mediate spoke up again. Those who had been fawning over Denise were now a little embarrassed, but they weren’t about to change sides after all, she was the one buying the drinks tonight. Some things are just too practical to ignore.

“Yeah, Khloe, just give in. Denise was tricked. You, on the other hand, lied. Drink up!”

“Come on, apologize properly. We’re all classmates here; Denise won’t make it difficult for you.”

“Exactly. No need to put on airs. Acting like you can cozy up to the Morrison family? Just give it a rest.”

While everyone talked over each other, Khloe remained calm. She took out her phone and, in full view of everyone, dialed a number.

“Hello, this is Khloe. Could you connect me to the Business Department at Morrison Group?”

Her voice was soft, but carried undeniable authority.

Immediately, the room went quiet, eyes darting between each other. Was Khloe really going to follow through, or was this another act?

A moment later, she glanced at Tina. “What’s your company called again?”

“Winsky Technologies,” Tina replied instinctively.

“Check if there’s a company called Winsky Technologies,” Khloe continued talking into the phone. “See if they’ve been bidding for any Morrison sub-projects recently. If so, set up a meeting tomorrow morning. The sooner, the better.”
