He was meticulous in everything he did, and his emotions were always under control.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Getting drunk in a restaurant like this was completely out of character. He would never have allowed himself to behave so disgracefully.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Tears were faintly visible on his face, evidence that he was nearing his breaking point over everything between them\u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The more Angela thought about it, the more her heart ached. With the help of the staff, she quickly got him into the car.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Seeing him lying lifeless in the passenger seat, she furrowed her brows and traced the line of his cheek.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Just as she leaned forward to press a gentle kiss to his lips, she suddenly heard Trey whisper, \u201cKhloe\u2026 Don\u2019t do this to me\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He gripped her hand tightly and pulled her into his arms-but the name he kept calling was Khloe!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Angela\u2019s eyes widened, and it felt as though a sword had pierced her heart. The pain was unbearable.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Her mind went blank for a long moment before she shoved him away. \u201cTrey! Do you\u2026 like her?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But he was too drunk to notice her actions. He barely raised his hand and continued calling Khloe\u2019s name.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKhloe\u2026 forgive me\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2026\u201d Angela\u2019s anger boiled over. She slapped him hard and stormed out of the car.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Khloe waited late into the night-Nick never arrived.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She stared at the last call on her phone. Two and a half hours earlier, Nick had called to say an emergency had come up and he would be late.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The waiter approached apologetically. \u201cMiss, I\u2019m very sorry\u2026 it\u2019s past closing time.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe glanced up. It was already 11:30 p.m. Many of the city lights outside had gone out.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFine. I\u2019ll leave now,\u201d she said, nodding. After a moment, she decided to call Nick-but the call went unanswered.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Was she being stood up?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Looking at the gifts she had set aside, she felt a pang of disappointment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>They were only tied by a contractual relationship. If Nick truly had something more important, it was reasonable that he\u2019d cancel at the last minute.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps, because it was Valentine\u2019s day, she had allowed herself a small, inexplicable hope.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe returned home at exactly midnight. Her stomach grumbled. She was about to make herself a quick meal when her phone rang.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She answered. Nick\u2019s voice came through, urgent. \u201cAre you home? I saw the restaurant had closed.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDidn\u2019t I message you that I went home first?\u201d Khloe said, surprised. She hadn\u2019t expected him to head there at\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 109\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>this hour.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2026I didn\u2019t see the message. I\u2019m at your door now.\u201d His voice was ragged, as if he had just endured strenuous exertion-far from his usual calm and composed tone.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe\u2019s eyes widened. She hurriedly opened the door.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Before her stood the man, a bandage wrapped around his forehead, faint bruises along his cheek and mouth. His coat was draped over him, dust and grime streaked across his clothes, his crisp shirt undone at the collar. On his pale neck were tiny scratches, small traces of blood.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNick\u2026 what happened?\u201d Khloe gasped, reaching toward him but hesitating.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had a car accident on the way and had to deal with it. Sorry to keep you waiting.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>His Adam\u2019s apple bobbed as he spoke. The tone was calm, almost casual, despite the seriousness of what had just happened.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe parted her lips, at a loss for words. \u201c\u2026So\u2026 the emergency you mentioned\u2026 was a car accident?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>2\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billionaire\u2019s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 109 Advertisement Read Billionaire&#039;s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 109 \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-26626","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\/26626","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=26626"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26626\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26626"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26626"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26626"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
