Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 581

Chapter 581

“Grandpa, I don’t believe Nick’s father had anything to do with my father’s death. I’m certain there’s some misunderstanding.”

After a long pause, Khloe finally spoke again. She had quickly gathered her thoughts and, taking a seat beside Henry, her voice softened, her tone measured and calm.

Clarice let out a cold laugh. “Khloe, whether there’s a misunderstanding or not remains to be seen. But you speak with such certainty… clearly, your heart is already leaning toward the Hunt family.”

Henry remained silent, but the lines of his face continued to tighten.

His breath seemed to lighten, and the air around him thickened, suffocatingly heavy.

Khloe knew Clarice’s provocation was working. Every word she’d said hit Henry’s heart, and his disappointment in her was unmistakable.

“I am not favoring the Hunt family,” Khloe said evenly, “I am simply stating my thoughts honestly. There is no conclusion yet. I could say what you want to hear, Grandpa, but in front of you, I will speak only the truth.”

Seeing through Clarice’s trap, Khloe maintained her composure, calm and logical.

“Grandpa, I know you want her to take a stand. I wasn’t raised in this house, and I haven’t had much contact with you, so it’s natural that you might not fully trust me as your granddaughter.”

“But my principles are simple: I never act against my conscience or betray those who have treated me well. The Hunt family has been good to me, and I remember that. You are my family, and I will always treat you with the same heart, Please trust me if…”

Khloe spoke deliberately, and as she did, Henry’s expression softened. He finally lifted his eyes to meet hers.

Clarice sat straighter, chin raised, curiosity flickering-she wanted to see how Khloe would twist her words

next.

Khloe’s lips curved slightly as she cast a sidelong glance at Clarice, then turned solemnly back to Henry.

“If the Hunt family truly had a generational feud with me, I would never turn a blind eye. As a daughter of the Morrison family, I would sever ties with the Hunt family completely and thoroughly.”

At that moment, Henry’s gaze cleared. He studied Khloe carefully, nodded slightly, and let his lips twitch in what might have been a faint smile.

“Khloe, this… this is exactly what a Morrison heiress should say. Emotional attachments are fleeting, passing clouds. People age, hearts change, the world is unpredictable. Only the life you hold in your hands, your family, your legacy-that is your true foundation and your lasting strength.”

He had told Niel the same thing once. Niel, in his day, had nearly acted rashly over Clarice, cutting ties almost completely.

“Khloe, that’s all well and good,” Clarice said, feigning a sigh, “but you adore Nick so much… if you had to cut the Hunt family off completely, what would you do then?”

“If I couldn’t do it,” Khloe said, her voice firm, “I would forfeit all of Niel’s inheritance, including my rights as heir to the Morrison Group. I would leave with nothing.”

Her words landed like a hammer. Clarice froze. Her eyelids twitched slightly as she fixed her gaze on Khloe’s

anded face.

Khloe’s expression remained calm, and she spoke without hesitation. Even Henry had not expected her to make such a grave pledge.
