She cried and screamed, slapping Trey hard across the face.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He didn\u2019t dodge. He let her hit him, curse him, and vent her fury without resistance.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Only when she was completely exhausted did he finally release her wrist.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDo you really think that if we tell them the truth, we\u2019ll be able to be together?\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrandma holds Grandpa\u2019s will. From that moment on, everything in the Fox family would have nothing to do with us. I\u2019d have nothing. How would I take care of you and Pete then?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd if Khloe were to find out about all of this, our relationship would become a public scandal. Do you think we\u2019d still have any place to stand in Goldmont in the future?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trey\u2019s words were brutally realistic. Each sentence pierced Angela\u2019s heart like an ice spike.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She had already cut ties with her own family. If Trey were cast out by the Fox family as well, how would the two of them possibly raise Pete?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Seeing Angela finally fall silent, Trey rubbed his forehead and took a deep breath.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t want this to blow up any further, Angela.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho sent that DNA report?\u201d Angela suddenly asked, her eyes darkening as if she\u2019d thought of something.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trey shook his head. \u201cI don\u2019t know. But whoever knows about us is probably someone we know. For now, don\u2019t contact any of your old friends. That includes Kirsten.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re suspecting my friends?\u201d Angela stared at him in disbelief. \u201cThe person you should be suspecting most is Khloe!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At the mention of Khloe\u2019s name, Trey felt as if he\u2019d been struck by electricity. He spoke at once. \u201cIt absolutely can\u2019t be Khloe!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy not?\u201d Angela shot back. \u201cThink about it carefully. Hasn\u2019t her attitude toward you been strange lately? Ever since I moved into your place, she stopped caring about the company, our relationship was discovered by your mother, and now even Pete\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The more Angela spoke, the more something felt wrong.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A woman\u2019s intuition told her that all of this had to be connected to Khloe.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re just too tense,\u201d Trey said flatly.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Angela\u2019s argument was forceful, but he dismissed it entirely.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If Khloe really knew about them, how could she stay so calm-no confrontation, no demands for an explanation?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>His marriage to Khloe was a sham. If she left, she\u2019d walk away with nothing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTrey, it\u2019s Khloe! She\u2019s getting revenge on us!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Angela\u2019s baseless accusation only irritated him. He cut her off coldly. \u201cDidn\u2019t you want to study abroad? Over the next couple of days, look into schools. I\u2019ll cover all the expenses.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTrey\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Angela tried to keep talking, but after dropping those words, Trey stood up and left, giving her no room for discussion at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She grabbed a glass and hurled it at the front door, screaming hysterically as if she\u2019d gone mad.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Why wouldn\u2019t he believe her? Why did she always have to bear everything alone?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Everyone in the Fox family deserved to die-and Khloe most of all!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Just as Angela was on the verge of exploding, the vibration of her phone pulled her back to her senses.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It was a message from a group chat of Trey\u2019s alumni, celebrating something.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She picked up her phone and saw that it was about a former student of hers, Brandon Parkson.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He had originally been a finance major, but later developed an interest in journalism and transferred departments.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Angela had personally helped him with the application and arrangements.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Now, Brandon had finally become a reporter at Goldmont\u2019s official television station. He\u2019d be appearing on TV often in the future, and everyone was congratulating him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A glint flickered in Angela\u2019s eyes as certain memories suddenly resurfaced.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Back then, the reason she had been so willing to help Brandon was because, at the same time Trey was pursuing Khloe, Brandon had also been relentlessly chasing after Khloe.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>2\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billionaire\u2019s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 158 Advertisement Read Billionaire&#039;s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 158 \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-26675","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\/26675","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=26675"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26675\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26675"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26675"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26675"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
