He only offered a perfunctory smile in\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>response.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There was a time he truly believed Angela was his true love. She had tolerated him and endured everything for\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>his sake.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But ever since she had threatened his family with their son and their private matters, Khloe had eclipsed her completely in his heart. At least Khloe\u2019s love and hate were intense-she dared to love and to hate-while Angela\u2019s affection was hollow. She could harbor so much resentment and still speak of love with such false\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>earnestness.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy the way,\u201d Angela hesitated before speaking, \u201cdidn\u2019t you keep some of Khloe\u2019s research papers before?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trey paused for a moment. \u201cWhy?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNothing\u2026 I just wanted to take a look.\u201d Angela settled next to him. \u201cI\u2019m still interested in the data, and I thought I could use this time to study a bit.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCan\u2019t you just read books? You really need her papers?\u201d Trey sighed.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe\u2019s papers hadn\u2019t been published-they were specialized research. When they\u2019d first married, she had trusted him enough to give them to him as a kind of dowry. He had kept them close, unwilling to let anyone else see them.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPlease\u2026 I\u2019m curious too. I want to see what makes her so exceptional. If I keep studying, I won\u2019t be any less capable than her.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Angela nestled into him and began to pester him coquettishly. Unable to resist, Trey finally got up and fetched a USB drive. It was valuable; he carried it with him everywhere.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThank you, Honey!\u201d Angela\u2019s eyes lit up, and she planted a quick kiss on his cheek.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t share it with anyone. Return it within a week.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOkay.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Late that night, rain began to pour.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Charlotte woke with a start at the thunder, immediately checking to make sure all the windows were securely shut.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, a sharp, heavy knock rattled her door, making her jump.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho\u2019s there?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It was past midnight, and she hadn\u2019t ordered any takeout.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Peering through the peephole, she saw only emptiness. Her heart raced, and just as she hesitated, the knocking came again. She took a step back.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 273\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho is it? Don\u2019t play games with me. I\u2019ll call the police!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s me. Ethan.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The man\u2019s voice was weak, hoarse, and heavy, echoing in the hallway with ragged, uncomfortable breaths.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEthan?\u201d Charlotte\u2019s panic spiked. \u201cWhat are you doing here? Are you here to get revenge?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ethan was slumped at the door with one leg bent, utterly drained from drinking. He had no strength to stand, but at her absurd question, he forced himself upright.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRevenge\u2026? Not worth my effort personally-cough-ugh-\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>His words cut off mid-sentence, replaced by a violently sudden retch.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Charlotte furrowed her brows. He wasn\u2019t\u2026 vomiting at her door, was he? That was certainly an unusual way to get revenge.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEthan\u2026 should I call the police, or get you a cab?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She considered calling Khloe, but it was already one a.m., and she couldn\u2019t bring herself to wake her. She decided to handle it herself. From the look of him, he posed little threat tonight.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ethan vomited again, then, irritated by her words, slammed his fist on the door twice.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not here for revenge. Open the door and let me rest a bit.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy come to my house to rest? Can\u2019t you go home?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t want to go home tonight.\u201d Ethan coughed and drew in a slow breath. \u201cBesides\u2026 this is all your fault today, Charlotte. The scar on my palm hasn\u2019t healed, and you repay me with enmity\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In his eyes, Charlotte was a poisonous snake disguised as an innocent little rabbit. He had helped her once with good intentions, and yet, she had fed him fake data, played him, and even colluded with Khloe to humiliate him. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>2\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billionaire\u2019s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 273 Advertisement Read Billionaire&#039;s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 273 \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-26794","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\/26794","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=26794"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26794\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26794"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26794"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26794"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
