Read Billionaire’s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 529 – Chapter 529 Nick’s first instinct was to pull Khloe into his arms. He moved so fast that she didn’t even have time to react. “What’s wrong?” His voice dropped, thick with displeasure. The driver answered at once, “It seems there’s a problem with the tire… It looks like a blowout?” The bodyguards exchanged glances and immediately got out to inspect it Before every trip, Nick’s car was subjected to strict checks and meticulous cleaning. Something like this should have been impossible. And there were no rough or dangerous roads in this area, A cold glint flashed through Nick’s eyes.
Khloe realized something at the same time. “Could it be… those two men from just now?” After examining the tire, the bodyguard reported, “Mr. Hunt, it’s the rear right tire. The valve core is missing, and the cut is very clean-like it was removed with professional tools.” The air inside the car froze instantly. —- Nick did not move. He only tightened his arms around Khloe. “Can you determine when it happened?” His face showed no emotion, but every word was edged with ice. “It was probably tampered with while the car was parked,” the captain said, forcing himself to stay steady.
“From the time we picked you and Madam up until now, it’s been about four hours. The tire has been slowly leaking air. They likely calculated that we’d be on our way back… If we hadn’t been delayed just now, it might have completely failed once we got on the highway…” By the time he finished speaking, everyone broke out in a cold sweat. If the tire had blown on the highway, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Ironically, it had been those two men who delayed them earlier. So… was this a warning, or a reminder?
“Nick, it looks like they’ve been watching us for quite some time The enemy was in the shadows; they were in the open. Someone was targeting the Hunt family-no, targeting Nick. —- Achill crept up the back of Khloe’s head. Even though she herself had been in the car, her first thought was of Nick’s health. He couldn’t withstand another injury. If there really had been an accident tonight, his life would have been in danger… Still shaken, she looked at him. A cold light flickered in her eyes, her lips parting again and again without finding any words. Nick remained composed.
He pressed a hand gently to the back of her neck and soothed her softly. “Don’t be afraid. We’te fine, aren’t we?” Though his tone was calm and steady, the glance he cast out the window was dark and chilling. “Send people after those two and bring them back. Find out exactly what happened to this car-who tampered with it. | want a full report by tomorrow morning. And file a case with the police.” His orders came unhurriedly, but without the slightest warmth. He did not vent his anger on the two bodyguards who had failed in their duty. That only made them feel more uneasy and guilty.
“Yes, Sir.” They took their orders and left. —- The driver arranged for another car nearby to take them home. This time, the ride was exceptionally smooth. The night was deep, and everything seemed to return to calm. But Khloe’s heart could no longer settle. Nick never let go of her hand. He kept her close in a protective posture, quietly comforting her. “Still scared?” Her face was pale. Even in the dim light, Nick could feel her unease when he touched her icy cheek. “You’re so calm about it.
We almost got into a car accident tonight…” “Our car has a very high safety rating, and the protection for the back seat is even stronger. If there really had been an accident, | would have stood in front of you as your last line of defense. | wouldn’t have let you be hurt.” He interrupted her gently, his dark eyes filled with unrestrained tenderness. When other people said things like this, it was usually just to comfort someone, but Khloe knew that Nick meant every single word
