Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 557

Chapter 557

Ralph had never expected that when he timed his move perfectly and sent Khloe a generous job offer with a high salary, she would reject him outright.

Back then, Ralph felt a heavy blow-his family had lost an outstanding talent, and he himself had lost someone who might have become a like-minded friend.

But a few years later, he saw Khloe again in a video from an international charity conference.

At the time, he did not recognize her. He only thought that the Morrison family’s heiress was impressive-not only beautiful and charismatic, but also eloquent in her speech. Her technical display in the relevant field was particularly striking; the more knowledgeable he was, the more he understood the true value of what she had

shown.

It was only later, when he met with his mentor again, that he learned the truth-this Khloe was the very talent he had once regretted losing.

The revelation left Ralph stunned for days.

The Remington and Morrison families were long-standing acquaintances. After so many twists and turns, the woman he admired turned out to be so close to him.

From that moment on, Ralph planned to make a trip back home to visit Morrison Group and arrange a meeting with Khloe. But without a proper bridge, such an abrupt move felt inappropriate to him.

Then this project came along, and Khloe was the first person he thought of. He went to Henry several times in advance.

Henry had deep cooperation with Dust Capital, and if Ralph wanted the firm to expand domestically and bind closely with Morrison Group and Khloe, he would inevitably need Henry’s approval.

Yet, Henry kept the matter in reserve and gave no clear response-until just recently, when he finally informed the Remington family that they could first make contact with Khloe.

Ralph had assumed Henry was simply being cautious. Even when dealing with his own group, he was known for being careful about partnerships.

Khloe was not Niel, and her control of Morrison Group was not yet fully established. In that sense, Henry was also acting responsibly toward the Remington family.

“So that’s how it is. I never imagined we shared such a distant connection.”

“Thank you for thinking so highly of me, Ralph. I really don’t deserve such praise-I’m not as exceptional as you make me sound.”

Moved by the sincerity in his words, Khloe felt a little embarrassed. She quickly clinked glasses with him and took a sip of champagne in return.

Ralph drank as well, without hesitation.

“No, Khloe, you’re far too modest. Meeting you today, I finally understand what ‘seeing once is better than hearing a hundred times’ truly means. You’re truly radiant.”

Perhaps he had drunk too quickly. Under the lights, a flush rose clearly on his cheeks, and the last of his words carried an undertone that felt different.

Khloe fluttered her lashes and deliberately lifted the hand wearing her large wedding ring, touching her face. casually until Ralph noticed, and his gaze settled on her fingertips. Only then did she smoothly brush her hair back and lower her hand,

“Khloe, your hands are beautiful. Any jewelry looks even better on you.”

She had not expected his attention to drift in that direction, but Khloe smiled and answered calmly, “Thank you for the compliment. But I think it’s my husband who has good taste in choosing jewelry.”

She displayed her hand again, almost wishing she were wearing more pieces.

All the sapphires and colored gemstones Nick had given her were still at home. This time, she had brought only her wedding ring and the matching couple’s bracelets they had chosen together.

“Y-your husband?” Ralph laughed in surprise. He had not expected Khloe to be married so young.

Hadn’t she only just returned to the Morrison family? He had heard that once she came back, she went straight into Morrison Group and devoted herself to work…
