Chapter 199\u00a0<\/p>\n
It wasn\u2019t until Winnie and the Hunt family had left that Veronica finally stomped her foot in frustration. \u201cWhy would Nick\u2026 side with Winnie?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
A bystander, someone who knew the situation, leaned over and whispered, \u201cYou don\u2019t know? Nick and Khloe are engaged. So when Khloe speaks up for Winnie, Nick is just protecting her.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The engagement between Khloe and Nick had been kept almost entirely secret. Even the engagement party was private-only close family and a handful of prominent business figures were invited. Most people, especially those at a distance, had no idea. The bystander had only caught wind of it through whispers before the dinner began.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After all, while the Morrison family might be the richest in the city, they weren\u2019t exactly connected to the Hunt conglomerate. Why would the two families suddenly have dinner together?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Naturally, the Olson family had no clue. Their dealings had mostly been through Clarice, and they\u2019d barely met Niel in person. After Khloe entered the Morrison family, Clarice\u2019s interactions with them had dwindled even further. It made sense that the Olson family hadn\u2019t heard anything.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When Veronica heard the truth, it felt as though someone had ripped her soul out. Her legs nearly gave way.\u201d Khloe\u2026 He\u2019s engaged to Khloe\u2026?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her chest ached, shattered into pieces.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She had secretly loved Nick for so long. Even if they weren\u2019t together, he should be with someone suitable\u2026 someone like Michelle Keller, from a prestigious, refined family. Not someone like Khloe-arrogant, shameless, a mere illegitimate daughter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her mother quickly steadied her, whispering softly, \u201cHoney, don\u2019t be too upset. Maybe it\u2019s just fate. You can\u2019t force what\u2019s not meant for you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She understood her daughter. Ever since Veronica had met Nick, no one else could measure up. And now that he was truly engaged, it was time for her to let go.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Khloe helped Winnie onto a van to change into a pale blue strapless mermaid gown.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Their figures were similar, though Winnie was slightly shorter, more delicate, and Khloe\u2019s slenderness made the gown fit her perfectly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThere. You look even more stunning.\u201d Khloe carefully wiped Winnie\u2019s hair with a wet wipe and handed her a compact for touch-ups.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you,\u201d Winnie said quietly, looking down at the dress. \u201cI\u2019ll wash it and return it to you later. And for what you did for me today\u2026 I\u2019ll repay it someday.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Khloe smiled. \u201cDon\u2019t be so formal. You\u2019re friends with Michael. And you helped me out at the charity dinner last\u00a0<\/p>\n
time. We\u2019re even.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not friends with Michael,\u201d Winnie said. \u201cI only intervened last time because I couldn\u2019t stand Veronica, not because I was helping you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She cleared her throat, careful not to let Khloe misunderstand.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd\u2026 from now on, don\u2019t speak up for me in front of others. Anyone who drags my name into their affairs won\u2019t\u00a0<\/p>\n

end well.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy?\u201d Khloe asked, curious.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Winnie looked distant, almost cold, but her words betrayed a sensitivity beneath the surface. \u201cThat\u2019s not something you need to know.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
With that, she opened the van door and stepped out. She saw Loretta still waiting nearby. She didn\u2019t walk with Khloe-she left on her own.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Loretta watched her go, slightly puzzled. Khloe had helped her, but Winnie didn\u2019t seem to acknowledge it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis girl\u2026 she doesn\u2019t seem very easy to get along with,\u201d she muttered.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMaybe it\u2019s just a protective shield,\u201d Khloe replied thoughtfully. \u201cI think she\u2019s actually quite interesting.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
