Just tell me-whatever it is, I\u2019ll face it with you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trey pressed down the frustration gnawing at his chest. Seeing Angela\u2019s panic-stricken face, he finally helped her to sit down beside him. He handed her tissues to wipe her tear-streaked cheeks and placed a warm cup of water into her hands.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The gentleness in his demeanor finally eased Angela a little. She sniffled and hesitated, then slowly told him everything that had happened with Brandon.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The moment Trey heard it, all warmth vanished from his eyes. His face went cold, and he abruptly stood. \u201cWhat did you say? You\u2026 you instructed someone to smear Khloe?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBrandon was caught\u2026 I\u2019m afraid the police will trace it back to me\u2026 then I\u2019d be finished\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Angela broke down again, panic overtaking her. She dropped to her knees, clutching Trey\u2019s leg as if it were the only lifeline left.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTrey, please\u2026 help me think of a way. I had no choice! I thought\u2026 if she was disgraced, we could be together without her in the way\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trey\u2019s temper flared-he wanted to scold her fiercely-but seeing her in such tears, he forced himself to hold back. Deep down, he knew she had acted for them.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf anyone in the family finds out\u2026 you\u2019ll really be finished.\u201d He closed his eyes and muttered, feeling a familiar headache press down.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Angela\u2019s back went cold. She knew he was right-if the Fox family discovered this, they\u2019d stop at nothing to have her thrown in jail.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTrey\u2026 Pete is still so young. If his mother goes to prison, how will he even grow up? Ten years we\u2019ve walked together. I\u2019ve always followed your lead. My love for you is no less than Khloe\u2019s\u2026 I only did this because I love you so much, I lost my judgment for a moment!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Angela was desperate, clinging to him, her words dripping with raw emotion. Even Trey\u2019s heart ached at her confessions.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He thought for a moment, then held her close, letting her calm for a while before immediately calling his lawyer. He instructed that Brandon be bailed out immediately. No matter the cost, as long as Brandon didn\u2019t implicate Angela, Trey would smooth things over legally, mitigating any consequences.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t worry. My lawyer knows exactly what to do. Brandon isn\u2019t from a wealthy family. Since you could bribe him to write fake news, this will be manageable.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Seeing Trey take action, Angela\u2019s tension eased. She nodded, still tearful, burying herself in his arms.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But Trey\u2019s headache had only just begun. He pressed on his temples, trying to relieve the pounding. One misfortune followed another, leaving him without a single night of rest.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When he was unwell before, Khloe would always notice first. She\u2019d prepare his medicine, insist he let go of everything, and rest early. She\u2019d quietly manage meetings and work, keeping a watchful eye on him. If she were here now\u2026 how different things would be.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe returned home early today, finishing her shower around eight o\u2019clock. She had stopped by the supermarket\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 165\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>and picked up ingredients, planning to invite Nick over for dinner. But he called to say he had a meeting in another state this afternoon and wouldn\u2019t return in time for dinner.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Since he couldn\u2019t come, she decided to treat herself. She prepared several delicate dishes, perfect for pairing with drinks, and whipped up a special cocktail. By chance, the drink turned out a brilliant shade of blue.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billionaire\u2019s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 165 Advertisement Read Billionaire&#039;s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 165 \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-26682","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\/26682","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=26682"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26682\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26682"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26682"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26682"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
