Even though the elderly lady disliked being disturbed, Khloe would still make sure someone regularly brought high-quality supplements to Lauren, under Trey\u2019s name.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSigh\u2026 I\u2019m getting old. One can\u2019t live forever, right? All these old ailments\u2026 they\u2019re really just emotional problems. The doctor said I got too worked up, my temper flared, so now I have to be observed in the hospital for a few days. I\u2019ve been thinking about you these past few days\u2026 could you come see me?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lauren\u2019s voice was weak, tinged with melancholy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe felt a pang of guilt. Lauren had gone out of her way to call-could her sudden illness have something to do with Khloe moving out? At over eighty, Lauren\u2019s mind was remarkably sharp. Trey\u2019s clumsy lies might not fool\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>her at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll right. I have something to take care of right now, but I\u2019ll come see you later. Send me the hospital room info,\u201d Khloe said without hesitation, recalling how much care Lauren had shown her in the past.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>After hanging up, she immediately called her assistant, asking them to prepare a gift for Lauren. Once she wrapped up matters at the Morrison Group, she grabbed the package and drove straight to the hospital.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Her mind kept racing, thinking of how to calm the old lady when she arrived, completely ignoring the messages from Nick on her phone.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At the hospital parking garage, Khloe parked and immediately grabbed the gift to head upstairs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou bad woman! You bad, bad woman! Always bullying me! Give me back Angela!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A familiar child\u2019s voice rang out, making her pause.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe looked over and saw Pete, brought downstairs by Trey\u2019s assistant. Clearly, it was late, and the assistant was trying to take him home.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sharp-eyed, Pete spotted Khloe and immediately wriggled free, racing over. Before she could react, he picked something up from the ground and hurled it at her arm.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe didn\u2019t indulge him. As soon as he tried to run off after his tantrum, she leapt forward and twisted his arm.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPete, do you really think no one\u2019s here to stop you? That I won\u2019t teach you a lesson? Did you forget what I told you last time-my punishments are heavy!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWaaahhh-\u201cPete cried out, knowing Khloe\u2019s temper all too well, trying to make a scene.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The assistant rushed over, flustered. \u201cMa\u2019am, he doesn\u2019t know better. Don\u2019t be upset. I was about to take him home anyway, and everyone else is waiting upstairs for you\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPerfect,\u201d Khloe said, unfazed. \u201cSince he\u2019s holding such a grudge against me, he should make it clear in front of his family. Pete, if you love Angela so much, I\u2019ll do a good deed for you-she can become your mom.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ignoring the assistant\u2019s protests, Khloe grabbed Pete and started walking. (1)\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Pete struggled wildly, dragging himself across the floor, wailing and cursing. He knew he shouldn\u2019t go up there; Khloe would ruin him!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Her move worked. The assistant lunged to stop her, and Khloe released Pete. The boy\u2019s momentum carried him forward, and he landed hard on the floor with a painful thud. Now truly hurt, he cried even louder.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The assistant, flustered, had no choice but to check on Pete and soothe him. Khloe, however, immediately called\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 130\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trey.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre you at the hospital? Pete\u2019s hurt. Come and see him.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She didn\u2019t even wait for a reply, hanging up immediately.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As expected, Trey soon came running down.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKhloe, you\u2019re here\u2026 what happened?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Seeing Khloe appear and having called him himself lifted Trey\u2019s mood, his voice brightening. But the moment he\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>saw Pete crying beside her, his brow furrowed tightly again.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u65e5\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billionaire\u2019s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 139 Advertisement Read Billionaire&#039;s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 139 \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-26656","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\/26656","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=26656"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26656\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26656"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26656"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26656"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
