Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 553

Chapter 553

On the way back, Delilah told Khloe a little about Henry.

Although he was currently recuperating, he still served as chairman of several chain brands under the Morrison Group. In recent years, he had also founded a highly successful supermarket brand and a chain of hotels in Naraida.

Delilah said that if Khloe was interested, she could take her to visit and learn more about them in a couple of days.

An hour later, Khloe arrived at Evergreen Manor, where Henry lived.

When he was young, Henry had loved wine. A private vineyard lay near the estate, stretching seamlessly from the winery to the residential area. The entire complex was built in a retro European palace style-grand and imposing, so lavish it resembled a historical ruin turned tourist attraction.

Naraida had low population density and high urban greenery coverage, so even casual snapshots looked like paintings.

Khloe took a few photos and sent them to Nick. When Delilah saw this, a faint glimmer passed through her eyes. Just before Khloe got out of the car, Delilah finally spoke.

“Miss Khloe, you’ll be meeting Master Henry in the library. There are rules there-you’re not allowed to bring your phone inside.”

“Not allowed to bring my phone? Why?” Khloe asked in surprise.

Delilah explained, “There are many collections in the library that are not meant to be made public. In addition, Master Henry keeps a number of important documents there, many of them confidential.”

Her expression showed no trace of unease, and a faint smile rested on her lips.

“I hope you can understand. Once you’ve finished meeting Master Henry, your phone will be returned to you immediately.”

“I won’t do anything you forbid. I’m a member of the Morrison family-his own granddaughter. Are you really guarding against even me?”

Khloe’s words did not make Delilah retreat. She continued apologetically, “I’m very sorry, but this is Master Henry’s rule. Even when your father, Niel, and your mother, Clarice, come to see him, as long as they enter the villa, they must temporarily hand in their phones.”

Khloe had heard this from Oscar and Michael before.

Henry was meticulous and especially fond of setting rules for his own family. He was extremely strict with his children and demanded absolute respect and obedience from everyone.

If he was not present, no one was allowed to pick up their utensils at a family banquet. If he was present, no one could touch their phones-nor were they allowed to chat among themselves.

So, to please the old man, whenever the Morrison family visited him, they would voluntarily hand over their

phones.

Khloe sighed and helplessly extended her phone.

Delilah was about to take it when Khloe pulled it back.

“Wait. Let me tell my husband first, so he won’t worry if it takes too long.”

“Of course,” Delilah said with a gentle smile.

Khloe left Nick a message, but he did not reply right away. Calculating the time difference, it was already past eleven at night in Goldmont. He was probably asleep.

She waited a moment, and when she saw that everyone else was also standing by, she finally handed over her phone.

There were six villas in the manor. The library was located in the one at the very back.

Khloe’s accompanying staff were led to wait in the main building’s hall, while Delilah personally guided Khloe forward and delivered her to Henry. 1

The heavy carved rosewood doors were pushed open. The male attendants standing on either side immediately bent at ninety degrees and welcomed her in deep voices.

Khloe took a quiet breath, inwardly complaining that Henry’s display was even grander than the combined presence of the entire Morrison family. Even the Hunt family’s estate, though equally luxurious, still fell short in sheer authority.
