She shot Trey a fierce look, gathered Pete in her arms, and turned away without a word.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAngela-\u201d he called after her desperately.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But after taking only a few steps, he stopped. He couldn\u2019t bring himself to follow.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The frustration in him coiled into something darker. He turned instead toward the house staff, his voice suddenly cold.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen did Khloe move out? Why was I not informed?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The servants stood trembling, heads bowed. One finally stammered out the truth.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe had packed up her things several days ago. She\u2019d instructed them not to bother Trey, saying he was busy and shouldn\u2019t be disturbed over trivial matters.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Several days ago?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trey\u2019s stomach sank. That was right after Angela had moved in.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>So Khloe had left because of that. She was angry after all.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Upstairs, Angela held her crying son close, tears still streaking her own face. She had sobbed for nearly an hour, waiting for Trey to come-he never did.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMom,\u201d Pete sniffled, his small hands clutching at her sleeve. \u201cDoes Dad not want us anymore? He hit me because of that bad woman\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShh, Pete, be good. Your Daddy won\u2019t abandon us,\u201d she murmured, stroking his hair, though even she didn\u2019t believe her own words.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She didn\u2019t understand Trey anymore. He had said Khloe was nothing but a tool, a woman he used for business. And yet, again and again, he lost control because of her.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Maybe\u2026 maybe he really had feelings for Khloe.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut Daddy was so scary,\u201d Pete whispered, his lips trembling. The memory of that slap still burned on his cheek.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Angela kissed his face gently. \u201cDon\u2019t be afraid. Mommy\u2019s here. I won\u2019t let him hurt you again.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Her voice was soft but cold at the edges. As long as she was here, Khloe would never replace her-or her son.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When Pete finally fell asleep, Angela wiped her tears, smoothed her hair, and went to Trey\u2019s study.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He sat alone at his desk. His study was heavy with silence. When he saw her, his lips twitched faintly, but his expression stayed distant.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sorry,\u201d he said after a long pause. \u201cI shouldn\u2019t have hit Pete. I lost control. I\u2019m not blaming you two, but Khloe left\u2026 it\u2019s bad for us. For the company.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He pressed his fingers to the bridge of his nose. His voice was unsteady. He had expected her to be angry, maybe even to lash out-but she didn\u2019t.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 32\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know,\u201d Angela said. \u201cYou\u2019ve been under too much pressure-business, family, everything. You\u2019re exhausted.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She came closer and gently took his hand in both of hers. Her voice was calm, warm, flowing like water that softened every sharp edge.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trey looked up, startled. Her face held no reproach-only sympathy and tenderness.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAngela, you\u2019re not angry with me?\u201d His voice was hoarse, uncertain.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He really had lost himself lately. Khloe\u2019s departure had left him disoriented, scattered. He\u2019d barely noticed Angela at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow could I blame you?\u201d Angela shook her head, pressing his hand to her chest. \u201cEverything you\u2019ve done\u2026 you did it for us.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAngela\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>His head lowered, his voice heavy with remorse. \u201cI just didn\u2019t handle things well.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not your fault,\u201d she said gently. \u201cYou shouldn\u2019t have to face everything alone. We\u2019re husband and wife- we\u2019ll get through this together.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Her words, so patient and soothing, finally broke through his turmoil. Some of the weight eased from his chest.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He pulled her into his arms.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But the moment his eyes closed, another image rose unbidden in his mind-Khloe\u2019s face.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>2\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billionaire\u2019s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 37 Advertisement Read Billionaire&#039;s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 37 \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-26554","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\/26554","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=26554"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26554\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26554"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26554"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26554"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
