Read Billionaire’s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 452 – —- Chapter 452 Dr. Yale knew Khloe hadn’t quite understood what he meant. Smiling softly, he looked at her. “Not necessarily.” “Then…?” “But | remember you saying just now that when Nick lost consciousness, he didn’t hurt you.” Khloe froze. It was as if something clicked. Dr. Yale turned his gaze to Nick. “Nick, not everything that happened was your fault. You see-you protected your stepmother. You also protected the woman you love. People can do irrational things in order to protect someone, and for the same reason, they can also stop themselves from causing harm.
“And from now on, with someone beside you who wants to protect you just as much, you’ll only get better.” When Dr. Yale finished speaking, silence settled over the room. This time, though, the silence carried warmth. A quiet tenderness welled up in Khloe’s chest. She looked at Nick, her eyes filled with a smile, and gently cupped his face.” —- Did you hear that, Nick? In the future, when you protect me- even if you lose consciousness, you’ll stop for my sake. So don’t be afraid anymore.” “..Okay.” Nick gulped.
He stared at the woman reflected in his eyes, feeling that any words would fall short. Even saying yes to her a thousand or ten thousand times wouldn’t be enough. He leaned in again, brushing his lips lightly against the tip of her nose, her cheek-careful, trembling with restraint. It was about time. Loretta returned with her assistant. The five of them had a simple meal together. Dr. Yale’s schedule was tight, and he soon took his leave. Khloe and Nick personally walked him downstairs. Before getting into the car, Dr. Yale turned back to them once more. “Recovering from trauma takes time.
Love and understanding are the best medicine. | wish you both happiness.” They stood there watching Dr. Yale’s car drive away. Only then did the two of them clasp hands, leaning into each other as they slowly walked back. —- At the entrance of the residential compound, however, Lauren- who had been waiting for a long time and was just about to leave -finally saw Khloe. Last night, when Trey had collapsed at home, she’d sent someone to check on him. That was how he’d been brought back.
Only then did she learn that over the past few days, Trey had been living in a haze-drinking himself numb, letting himself fall apart. And the reason for all of it was Khloe. Someone had told her about how Trey had knelt down in public for Khloe. Lauren’s mental resilience had been hardened over this period, but even so, she couldn’t swallow this humiliation. She had treated Khloe well in the past-so well. And now Khloe’s retaliation was so ruthless it threatened to wipe out their entire family. When Trey finally regained consciousness, the first name he called was still Khloe’s.
Lauren’s heart ached for her grandson, even as anger burned toward Khloe. She asked Trey’s people for Khloe’s address, only to discover that this house had been bought by Trey for her. —- No matter how flawed Trey might be, his feelings for Khloe had been genuine. How could they be trampled on like this? Stella was keeping watch over Arthur at the hospital. Lauren told no one about this and came herself, bringing people with her, to look for Khloe. This was a detached residential complex, with only two single- level units in total. Security was tight.
No matter what Lauren said, they refused to let her in. Perhaps Khloe had given instructions beforehand. Left with no other choice, Lauren waited here, hoping to catch Khloe by chance. Khloe couldn’t possibly stay inside forever. Sure enough, patience paid off. When she’d only heard about it, Lauren hadn’t fully believed it Now that she was seeing it with her own eyes, rage surged through her, smoke practically coming out of her head Khloe really did have another man by her side now.
