Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 464

Not a single word about Khloe was mentioned.

Angela nodded. "Yes. His grandma passed away. The procedures aren't finished yet, so I need to go back and take a look."

"As you should." Barney nodded and took out his phone to approve her request. "I'll authorize your trip. Arrange things as you see fit."

"Thank you."

His easygoing attitude almost made Angela feel flattered.

She added, "I'll handle things as quickly as possible and return to the company."

"The company was planning to send you to Goldmont anyway. Doing the project inspection there ahead of time works just as well."

Barney spoke calmly. Angela wouldn't be staying in Jayelle City long—sooner or later, she would return to Goldmont.

That in itself was fine. But…

"Angela."

"Yes?"

Barney hesitated before speaking. "Some unhealthy relationships can hold a person back in life. Since you've decided to divorce, I hope you can stay clear-headed."

Angela fell silent.

What Kirsten had told Barney was that Trey had cheated and hurt her, and that the two of them were heading toward divorce.

He didn't know that she didn't actually want to divorce.

He was even a little worried that once she returned home, she would be entangled again.

"Don't worry," Angela said, unable to explain and only able to go along with him. "Men are all the same when it comes to love. They're not as steadfast as women. I'll keep a clear head about feelings."

There was a trace of sadness in her words. At that moment, the alcohol was beginning to take effect on Barney—his body felt warm, and so did his heart.

Turning to look at the lingering sorrow in Angela's delicate brows and eyes, he suddenly gathered his courage and reached out to hold her hand.

"In fact, not all men in this world are the same," he said softly. "There are men who are faithful, too."

The sudden gesture startled Angela. She slammed on the brakes.
