Even if Oscar still wanted to treat Khloe genuinely as a niece, Khloe would never grow close to him again.
He understood perfectly well what Clarice was trying to do, yet he still chose to agree.
He was getting old and truly didn’t want to be dragged into the struggle between Clarice and Khloe. Besides… Clarice was not someone easy to deal with.
Now, Michael was everything to him. As long as he could protect him and stay out of trouble, that was enough.
As for Khloe… even if she had formed a marriage alliance with Nick, if she still couldn’t contend with Clarice in the end… then that was simply her fate.
Although Oscar had talked himself into this, seeing Khloe in such a state still made his heart ache.
He handed her a packet of tissues. “Khloe, don’t be too nervous. I believe good people are blessed by the heavens. Nick will definitely be safe. But you, too-you must steady yourself. Your health is what matters.”
Hearing this, it was as if something suddenly occurred to Khloe. The haze in her eyes cleared for a brief moment.
“Uncle Oscar, the Morrison Group is at a critical stage right now. I’ll arrange for my staff to keep an eye on things, but I remember you’re also involved in this project. I’ll have to ask you to help out. There absolutely can’t be any mistakes.”
Khloe knew very well how irresponsible her departure was.
For such a key drug launch, although preparations were extremely thorough and major issues were unlikely, the final inspection and approval still required her personal oversight and signature. Now, she was leaving at the most crucial moment.
The only person she could trust was Oscar.
He was part of the Morrison family, and his interests were aligned with the Morrison Group’s.
“Don’t worry. I’ll handle it,” Oscar said, his throat bobbing as he spoke, a hint of guilt in his voice.
But Khloe didn’t notice the subtle change in his expression at all.
She nodded gratefully. “Thank you. I’ll transfer the signing authority to you. If anything comes up…”
“Contact me immediately.” Oscar nodded. The car had already arrived at the airport terminal.
Khloe looked much calmer after saying all that, but when she reached to unbuckle her seatbelt, Oscar still saw her hands trembling.
After a long moment, she clenched her fists and forced a bitter smile at him. “I’ll be going now, Uncle Oscar.”
As she spoke, Oscar vaguely caught sight of tears slipping from the corners of her eyes.
She was clearly panicking inside, yet still forcing herself to stand tall.
Was a man she had only known for a short time really enough to make her worry this much?

Oscar couldn’t help but think of Michael. Why were all the children of the Morrison family so hopelessly devoted?
“Khloe-”
Oscar wanted to say something more, but Khloe didn’t give him the chance. She had already gotten out of the car and walked away.
Her assistant was waiting at the entrance. The two of them moved quickly and disappeared from sight in
moments.
On the drive back, Oscar’s brow remained furrowed.
He had so many reasons to justify himself. He didn’t truly know what Clarice intended to do, and he wasn’t exactly an accomplice.
Yet, when he thought of the trust in Khloe’s eyes as she left, his chest felt unbearably tight.
Just as Oscar stepped through the front door, intending to speak with Clarice, her call came through at the same time.
He raised a hand to signal the servants to leave and answered the phone in the foyer.
“Khloe has already left. She was in a great hurry-she didn’t delay even a moment after hearing the news.”
His voice was heavy. “What about Michael…”
Clarice’s smiling voice came through the receiver. “Oscar, don’t worry. The Starr family dared to set their sights on one of us, so of course, I won’t let them off. A large batch of their cooperative materials failed the audit. The losses this time are quite severe-there should be news about it by tomorrow.”
