We can arrange another seat for you at the head table immediately\u2013we promise you won\u2019t be slighted. It\u2019s just that this particular seat\u2026 was reserved some time ago. The guest will be here any moment. Please, don\u2019t make this difficult for me\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The longer Khloe held her ground, the more strained the atmosphere grew. Whether she stayed or left now, it would be awkward.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Veronica\u2019s smirk widened, her triumph barely contained. Sie seized the moment to twist the knife.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome people love to put on a show, but they never know how to end it. It\u2019s just pathetic.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Her barb ignited a wave of murmurs. Voices around the room suggested it would be wiser for Khloe to yield gracefully. At least then she could save face by appearing considerate of the organizers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If she was forced out or clung on until a scene erupted, the humiliation would be far greater.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A faint smile touched Khloe\u2019s lips. She adjusted her posture with deliberate elegance, gathered her thoughts, and spoke with calm authority, \u201cI understand that mistakes happen.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Her voice was even, but her gaze sharpened as it landed on the pale manager, her tone turning icy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I am here as the official representative of Morrison Group. By occupying this seat, I uphold the dignity of the Morrison family. First, you failed to place my name card. Now, for the sake of a guest who hasn\u2019t even arrived, you ask me to move to a makeshift seat? Does that mean the Morrison family\u2019s honor isn\u2019t worthy of your respect?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A stunned silence fell over the room. Everyone understood the weight the Morrison name carried\u2013this blunder was, indeed, a profound sign of disrespect.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Cold sweat beaded on the manager\u2019s forehead. He opened his mouth to explain, but Khloe pressed on.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs for the distinguished guest who is on his way, his presence is a favor to this event. But if, due to your error, it appears that he \u2018took the seat\u2018 from the Morrison family, that is surely not the reputation he would wish to cultivate.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Her meaning was razor\u2013sharp. The fault lay entirely with the organizers. She would not be made a scapegoat, nor would she be pitted against the incoming guest.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>From the sidelines, Veronica sneered, waiting for Khloe to crumble. What could she possibly do? Force the organizers to give up the reserved seat? Impossible.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But then Khloe turned back to the organizers, her tone softening as if offering them a way out.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe solution is actually quite simple.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOh? And what solution would that be?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The reply did not come from the floor manager.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A deep, magnetic voice resonated from the edge of the crowd.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Every head turned.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There stood Nick, dressed in a simple yet impeccably tailored black suit, his strides long and commanding. Only his assistant, Lenny, accompanied him\u2013yet it was Nick alane whose presence seemed to suck the air from the\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>room.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>772\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With just a few words, his aura washed over the hall, pressing the crowd into a hushed stillness.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>His gaze locked directly on Khloe, his dark eyes gleaming with something unreadable\u2013scrutiny, and a trace of unmistakable amusement.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe\u2019s heart stuttered in her chest. \u2018Nick! Wasn\u2019t he thousands of miles away last night? How is he here?\u2018\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A wave of shocked whispers swept the banquet hall. Disbelief was etched on every face.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The man was a phantom in the business world\u2013rarely seen, shrouded in legend. But his ruthless demeanor was well\u2013known.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Even among this elite crowd, his circle was exclusive. Power, wealth, prestige\u2013none of it mattered. He had crossed titans before and dismantled them without a second thought. Those who had dared to offend him were said to have vanished without a trace.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billionaire\u2019s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 29 Advertisement Read Billionaire&#039;s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 29 \u2013 Love [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[78],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-26546","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-the-billionaires-checkmate-novel"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26546","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26546"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26546\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26546"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26546"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26546"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
