The Billionaire’s Checkmate Novel Chapter 464

Read Billionaire’s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 464 – —- Chapter 464 Not a single word about Khloe was mentioned. Angela nodded. “Yes. His grandma passed away. The procedures aren’t finished yet, so | need to go back and take a look.” “As you should.” Barney nodded and took out his phone to approve her request. “I’ll authorize your trip. Arrange things as you see fit.” “Thank you.” His easygoing attitude almost made Angela feel flattered. She added, “I’l handle things as quickly as possible and return to the company.” “The company was planning to send you to Goldmont anyway. Doing the project inspection there ahead of time works just as.

well.” Barney spoke calmly. Angela wouldn’t be staying in Jayelle City long-sooner or later, she would return to Goldmont That in itself was fine. But… “Angela.” —- “Yes?” Barney hesitated before speaking. “Some unhealthy relationships can hold a person back in life. Since you’ve decided to divorce, | hope you can stay clear-headed.” Angela fell silent. What Kirsten had told Barney was that Trey had cheated and hurt her, and that the two of them were heading toward divorce. He didn’t know that she didn’t actually want to divorce.

 

He was even a little worried that once she returned home, she would be entangled again “Don’t worry,” Angela said, unable to explain and only able to go along with him. “Men are all the same when it comes to love. They’re not as steadfast as women. I’l keep a clear head about feelings.” There was a trace of sadness in her words. At that moment, the alcohol was beginning to take effect on Barney-his body felt warm, and so did his heart. Turning to look at the lingering sorrow in Angela’s delicate brows and eyes, he suddenly gathered his courage and reached out to hold her hand.

—- “In fact, not all men in this world are the same,” he said softly.” There are men who are faithful, too.” The sudden gesture startled Angela. She slammed on the brakes “Barney…” Barney immediately realized his impropriety and withdrew his hand at once. A little awkward, he picked up the tea Angela had prepared, took a sip, turning his gaze away. Angela’s heart began to race. Before, she had thought his concem for her was simply the courtesy of a superior and his appreciation of her work. She hadn’t expected… that he might harbor such feelings for her.

For a moment, she couldn’t process it. Her mind buzzed, and her thoughts fell into disarray. She had never imagined that someone like Barney-a man of his stature-would take an interest in her. In truth, she admired him as well and felt a great deal of goodwill toward him. —- If it weren’t for her deep obsession with Trey, Barney would not have been a bad choice at all. The rest of the drive passed in silence. By the time she dropped Barney off at his residence, neither of them mentioned the boundary that had been crossed moments earlier.

It was as if nothing had happened When Barney returned home, his mood was still unsettled. Yet, even at such a late hour, someone was waiting for him in the sitting room. It was a private detective agency he had hired. The matter of finding his younger sister seemed to have made some progress. Late at night, Khloe’s phone also received a message from an unfamiliar number. But she was already asleep in Nick’s arms and didn’t see it. Not until the next morning, shortly after she woke, did she casually tap open the message.

At that moment, Nick was still sleeping soundly with his head resting on her shoulder, his breathing even and light. —- He had always been a light sleeper. Even with medication, he usually woke earlier than she did. It was rare for him to sleep this well. Khloe didn’t dare move an inch, afraid of disturbing him, and could only hold up her phone to pass the time. And then, at last, the message came into view.
