Chapter 321
Michael knew Winnie was impulsive by nature, yet at the same time, timid-thunder and rain could make her shiver uncontrollably. Her outward boldness often clashed sharply with her inner fragility.
But he liked seeing her that way. Even when she tried to act tough, it only made her more endearing.
Winnie gripped his hand tightly until the plane steadied. Only then did she realize she had overdone it and hurriedly let go.
Michael stared at the empty space where her hand had been. A sudden, inexplicable ache bloomed in his chest.
Meanwhile, at the southwest border of Felanche, dawn broke.
Khloe had spent a full day and night in the hospital room. Her body was finally giving out. She hadn’t brought proper clothing when she arrived, and the cold wind along the way had left her slightly chilled. By the time the doctor had finished checking Nick, dizziness hit her so hard she could barely stand.
Arista noticed immediately and quickly supported her. “Khloe, you should go back and rest. I’ll be here to take care of everything.”
“I’m fine, Mom… I’ll just rest here for a little while,” Khloe insisted, her voice calm but weak.
Outside, Loretta, having just arrived at the ward, overheard the conversation. Her brows knitted into a tight knot.
“Khloe, if you get sick, Nick will be even more worried when he wakes up! Listen to me. Take some medicine and get some proper rest.”
Loretta took charge immediately, summoning someone to ensure Khloe had no chance to continue her
stubbornness.
Khloe, knowing she couldn’t argue with her elders, relented. Before leaving, she went to Nick’s side and brushed a hand through his hair.
“I’ll come see you later,” she whispered softly into the nape of his neck, unaware that his eyelids had twitched slightly and his lashes flickered in response.
Back at the hotel suite, Khloe, seizing the last of her energy, took a hot shower, trying to wash away the fatigue and chill. But as the warm water poured over her and her eyes closed, a wave of sorrow welled up from deep within.
“Nick…” she murmured.
Images of him at home, day after day, living alongside her, flashed through her mind. She had been hoping for many more days together. How could he fall like this-right here, right now?
After she had dressed and begun blow-drying her hair, she noticed her phone buzzing incessantly with messages. Company updates, a few calls from Oscar and Charlotte, and some voicemails awaited her.
Some of Oscar’s messages had been retracted. The final one was brief: a simple note saying that project reviews might be delayed by a few days, but she shouldn’t worry.

How could she not worry? Morrison Group was on the brink of launching a new drug, and Khloe knew there were still many waiting to see her stumble. But with Nick injured, she had no way to rationally manage everything- she had to take a gamble.
Khloe glanced at the message from Charlotte, her brow furrowing lightly. She bit her finger before dialing back immediately. Charlotte’s message had warned her that Oscar and Clarice were growing close and urged Khloe to be cautious around him.
The call connected quickly. With the two-hour time difference, it was nearly noon back in Goldmont City.
Hearing Khloe’s voice, Charlotte’s relief broke into a quivering, almost tearful tone. She had been unable to reach Khloe and feared something had gone wrong.
Khloe had left in such a hurry that she had only informed the group she was stepping away, asking Charlotte to keep everyone focused on work until her return. Moreover, Oscar had immediately arrived at Morrison Group to temporarily assume her duties.
Charlotte and the others, having followed Khloe from Fox Group, were on high alert. Morrison Group had always been a more complex environment than the Fox Group, and recent developments only heightened their concern.
“I’m fine,” Khloe said, her voice steady but tinged with worry. “It’s just… Nick. He’s hurt.”
