Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 476

At that moment, Nick opened his eyes, catching Khloe staring at him unwaveringly, a small, gentle smile curving her lips.

"I've made my wish," he said.

Khloe returned his smile, carefully tucking the instant photo into her bag. She then turned to the two red ribbons swaying in the wind and pressed her hands together in a solemn bow.

On the drive back, Khloe finally revealed the photo she had secretly taken to Nick, as if showing a treasured gem. The composition was exquisite, and Nick, in the frame, outshone even the majestic tree.

She couldn't help but admire it again and again, thinking she could probably win a photography award with this single shot. Even all the photos they had taken at the palace that day couldn't compare in her mind.

As dusk softened the cityscape, golden light filtered through the car window, illuminating the planes of his face.

"You took this? Then of course it's the best," Nick said in a low voice.

He reached to take it, but Khloe refused. "I'm keeping it. Next time you have an even better photo, I'll give you this one."

"Fine."

"Nick…"

"Hm?"

She leaned back against him, holding the photo up, studying it over and over.

"You're… not supposed to believe in spirits or gods, right?"

"If my wish comes true, then starting today, I'll believe," he replied.

…

The next morning.

Goldmont City, outskirts, the family cemetery.

Stanley and Alicia had discussed the situation. The Fox family had no chance of turning the tide now. Trey, middle-aged and defeated, would be hard-pressed to recover.

As for Lauren's foundation, they had quietly investigated. Even if Angela and Trey divorced, as long as their connection was discovered, the firm had the authority to seal the fund.

If Lauren were alive, managing it would be easier—but now, with her sudden death, the foundation would be difficult to deal with.

If Trey wanted the money, it would be better for him to stay with Angela and help run the new company branch Angela was set to open in Goldmont.

Looking at it from every angle, the family's only hope truly lay with Angela.

Angela cared deeply for Trey and seemed unlikely to leave the Fox family over this.

But… if she ever learned Khloe's true identity, all bets were off.

For this reason, when Angela returned, Alicia and Stella agreed: for now, Khloe's status as the heiress of the Morrison Group must remain a secret.
