“Why would you pound on the door with your injured hand? Don’t you know what pain is?”
His clear, tense voice trembled with anxiety and frustration. He cupped her bandaged hand, scrutinizing it carefully. Seeing no blood had seeped through, he finally exhaled a little.
Khloe stared at him. Nick wore only a loose, oversized T-shirt; his tall frame looked lean and almost fragile, so different from the meticulously groomed man she knew at home. Today, even his face was unshaven.
“You knew I’d be worried, so why didn’t you open the door sooner?” she murmured.
After confirming she was unharmed, Nick finally released her hand. He deliberately avoided her gaze, his eyes not lifting to meet hers.
“I didn’t realize it was you.”
“Really? Then who did you think it was? Michelle?” Khloe’s words made his chest tighten.
“You… you saw Michelle?” he asked.
“Yeah. She seemed to have just left from here.”
“Khloe, don’t misunderstand. My being here has nothing to do with her. She came on her own. I don’t know who told you…” His voice grew rapid, almost panicked.
Any mention of Michelle seemed to trigger an instinctive anxiety in him. Whatever happened, he didn’t want Khloe to misinterpret it.
“Forget Michelle for a moment,” Khloe cut him off, brushing past his side as she strode into the room. “Let’s talk about us first.”
She scanned the space and then sat down at the bar stool by the window.
“The place is nice.”
Seeing the hard line in her expression, Nick quietly closed the door and followed. He didn’t know what to say, so he went to the kitchen, poured a glass of warm water, and placed it gently in front of her.
“It’s cold outside. You’re dressed too lightly today.”
He noticed the thin clothes beneath her coat. Without another word, he adjusted the air conditioning to warm
the room.
Khloe didn’t reply, but her hands moved instinctively to the cup, gripping it. The warmth seeped into her palms, chasing away some of the chill in her heart.
Nick’s expression remained cool and distant. Apart from the fleeting tension and worry when he first opened the door, he had resumed his usual detached composure, lowering his voice as if to mask any emotion.
“Don’t misunderstand about Michelle. Even if we… nothing could ever happen between me and Michelle.”
He worried she might take offense, but in times like this, he didn’t know how else to explain. Seeing her look at him without the usual spark of warmth, a sharp ache hit his chest.

“Even if we what?” Khloe’s gaze was unwavering, fixed on him.
She didn’t need an explanation about Michelle. Her anger was directed solely at Michelle’s opportunism, never at him. She understood now why he and Michelle were completely impossible.
For a man who placed his pride above all else—even revealing his flaws-he had said those harsh words before. A man this proud never looks back.
“If we…” Nick’s voice dropped. “I want you to give it some thought.”
“Give what some thought?”
His words were vague, but Khloe made it clear. “You mean… you want me to seriously consider divorcing you?”
He stayed silent and didn’t answer.
