Khloe froze for a moment, clearly not expecting Nick\u2019s question. She set down her fork and met his deep gaze on the screen, pausing before replying. \u201cWould you ever lie to me? Or betray me?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo,\u201d Nick answered without a trace of hesitation, his tone resolute and unwavering. \u201cThere will never be such a day.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
A smile broke across Khloe\u2019s face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen I won\u2019t either. My ruthlessness is reserved only for those who betray or hurt me. But you\u2026 you are the one I will walk next to, no matter what happens.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
These were not empty sweet words, but a heartfelt promise, tempered by life\u2019s trials and forged into genuine commitment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nick felt as if something inside him had been filled completely, a profound warmth and sense of peace spreading through his body.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He opened his mouth to speak, but his gaze fell on the bowl of noodles in front of her, and his brows knit ever so slightly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat is your dinner?\u201d His tone carried a hint of disapproval, though his voice remained gentle. \u201cIt\u2019s not nutritious at all. Should I have Lenny arrange for a proper cook to prepare something for you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Seeing him switch instantly from lover mode to \u201cparent mode,\u201d Khloe felt a faint twinge of being treated like a child.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo need! I\u2019m freer on my own, and I just wanted a little indulgence. Don\u2019t worry about me\u2026\u201d She trailed off, picking up her fork again and taking a satisfied bite.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Watching her act so playfully, Nick immediately let down his guard.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFine. Only once in a while, alright?\u201d he murmured.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yet his gaze remained on the red-oil-laden noodles, his brows still slightly furrowed. Speaking as if to himself, or perhaps negotiating with her, he added, \u201cWhen I come back, I\u2019ll make sure you get all the nutrition you\u2019re missing.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Khloe swallowed, looked up at him, and the light from the screen danced in her smiling eyes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen it\u2019s settled. You have to come back quickly\u2026 to replenish my nutrition.\u201d Her voice softened a touch, carrying a faint note of dependence, \u201cWhen you\u2019re not here, no matter what I eat, it just feels\u2026 lacking.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her words struck deeper than any straightforward declaration of love could.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nick felt a feather-light brush across his heart, tickling him in the most unbearable way. The woman who had once shared his bed yet remained untouchable now had every expression and movement seemingly luring him, and the mere sight of her stirred a heat through his body.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSoon.\u201d His voice was low, husky with a touch of tension, as if his throat had grown dry. \u201cOnce things here are settled, I\u2019ll fly back immediately.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cMm, work is important, but don\u2019t overexert yourself,\u201d Khloe reminded him, lightly stirring the noodles. \u201cI\u2019ll be waiting.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The final three words were soft, gentle, and unguarded, and they made his lower stomach tighten. Instantly, he recalled that night by the bed-her curled in his arms, long lashes casting soft shadows across her face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Soon, the noodles in Khloe\u2019s bowl were nearly gone. They chatted a little longer, and when Lenny arrived to brief Nick on the next day\u2019s tasks, Khloe took the opportunity to shower.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Though night had deepened, Nick was reluctant to end the call. When Khloe stepped out of the bathroom, towel- drying her damp hair, she noticed the phone on the table still lit.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nick was reviewing documents, his profile illuminated by the desk lamp, fingers occasionally tracing the papers with a soft scratching sound.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her heart softened, and she tiptoed over quietly, careful not to disturb him. She placed the phone on the vanity and, content in her own space, began her skincare routine.\u00a0<\/p>\n
