She had lived for years in a quiet villa tucked against the hills on the outskirts of the city. Except for major holidays, she often refused even family visits.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Receiving a call from her was unusual.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, within the Fox family, she was the only one who had ever shown any real approval of Khloe.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When Trey first brought Khloe home, it was Lauren who stood firm against the objections of the entire family and insisted on their marriage.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Before leaving the Fox household after Nick\u2019s grandfather\u2019s passing, she had held both of their hands, speaking with solemn authority, \u201cAlthough Khloe isn\u2019t from a prominent family and doesn\u2019t have relatives backing her, you must never bully her. I\u2019ve been through life, and girls like Khloe-loyal, capable, and full of heart\u2014are rare. You must cherish her, and I know you two will grow old together.\u201d 3\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Now, recalling Lauren\u2019s words, Trey felt more than just guilt-there was a vague, inexplicable sense of loss gnawing at him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve heard some rumors\u2026 have you and Khloe had a falling out?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lauren\u2019s voice was frail with age, yet carried undeniable authority.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trey hesitated. \u201cGrandma\u2026 where did you hear that? We\u2019re fine.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019re fine, why did she move out?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He had intended to evade the question, but Lauren clearly knew more than he expected. He could only admit the truth.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was just a small argument. All couples quarrel. It\u2019s already much better now. In a few days, it should be completely resolved.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t think Khloe is the type to throw such a temper lightly. Don\u2019t bother explaining over the phone. I\u2019ll be home tomorrow. Then you can tell me everything in detail-invite Khloe too. I\u2019ll help mediate. Couples shouldn\u2019t carry grudges overnight. You young people really don\u2019t know how to manage a relationship!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrandma, it\u2019s fine. Khloe and I can handle this ourselves\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trey tried to protest, but Lauren was unwavering. She had made up her mind before calling, and before he could argue further, the call ended.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Though advanced in years, Lauren could no longer ignore family matters. The final wishes of her husband still weighed heavily on her heart. As long as she lived, she would ensure Trey and Khloe lived well together.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She knew Trey\u2019s character well. On the surface, he seemed to balance it all properly-but beneath it all, he was obsessively stubborn. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>No one else, she knew, could make him bend so completely, especially considering the troubles from his past relationship, which still posed hidden risks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trey stared at his phone, his head aching as if it might split open.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>After a moment, an idea struck him. He immediately called Khloe. When she didn\u2019t answer, he sent a message.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 125\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trey: [Khloe, Grandma is coming home tomorrow. She wants to see you. Why don\u2019t you come back for lunch?] 1\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The message quickly appeared on Khloe\u2019s screen.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At that moment, she was still talking to Nick. Nick had just wrapped up a period of work and told her he would return to Goldmont City soon. Khloe was reminding him again to take care of himself. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Seeing Trey\u2019s message, her good mood evaporated instantly.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Her conversation with Nick came to an abrupt halt.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lauren had always been the only one in the Fox family to genuinely protect her. When the old lady still lived in the household, no one dared to bully her, and Khloe had always been deeply grateful for that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billionaire\u2019s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 125 Advertisement Read Billionaire&#039;s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 125 \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-26642","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\/26642","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=26642"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26642\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26642"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26642"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26642"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
