The core data of the new version is still under the Olson family\u2019s control. Even if the patent fees go entirely to them, I could never betray my mother\u2019s wishes-or my country.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Michael gazed at her stubborn profile, a complex wave of emotions rising within him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>So Winnie was far clearer-headed and more rational than he had ever imagined.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven so,\u201d he sighed, \u201cusing that technology to get me back home\u2026 the price was far too high. You shouldn\u2019t have risked yourself for me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnie finally turned to face him, her eyes carrying that familiar stubbornness. \u201cMichael, you\u2019re still as indecisive as ever. I said I was willing. You don\u2019t need to worry about me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Normally, Michael might have taken this as another instance of her willfulness. But this time, he sensed something different beneath her words.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If this hadn\u2019t required her to personally step in, would she, like in the misunderstanding years ago, have left him without even an explanation?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>During the return flight, both were lost in their own thoughts, and for a long time, there was no conversation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnie slept for a while and woke to find there were still over five hours left in the flight. Bored, she was about to order some food when she noticed the seat beside her was empty.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhere\u2019s Michael?\u201d she asked the attendant, anxious.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m here,\u201d came his voice. Michael emerged from nearby, and Winnie couldn\u2019t help but feel a little awkward.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought you\u2026\u201d she began.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou were worried about me?\u201d Michael asked, a small smile tugging at his lips.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He had seen her sleeping peacefully earlier and had gone to the back to handle some work. He hadn\u2019t expected that the moment she woke, she would immediately look for him. Clearly, this trip to Naraida had been weighing heavily on her.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnie didn\u2019t answer, but her silence was taken as acknowledgment. Michael slid back into the seat beside her.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we get home, what are your plans?\u201d he asked.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnie looked down, lazily fiddling with the edge of her sleeve. \u201cPlans? Just keep muddling through life, I guess.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>11\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Michael frowned, sensing that she was teasing him. \u201cThat\u2019s not what I meant.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf the Olson family knew you did all this for me, they\u2019d probably make things difficult for you. And\u2026 is there anything I can do for you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI said we\u2019re even,\u201d Winnie replied, tugging at the corner of her mouth. \u201cI can\u2019t provoke the Olson family\u2026 and definitely not the Morrison family.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 320\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She was referring to Oscar. Michael had already promised his father he wouldn\u2019t get entangled with Winnie again. This matter with Lindsay could easily have Oscar pinning the blame on her again.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Michael wanted to say more, but words failed him. Perhaps his concern was, in itself, a burden for her.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo matter what, if you need my help, just say the word,\u201d he said softly.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAren\u2019t you busy with work? You\u2019ll still have time for me after we get home?\u201d Winnie teased lightly, masking her concern. She sensed the seriousness in his tone and didn\u2019t want him to examine her so gravely, as if she were facing some insurmountable hardship.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs long as you need me, I\u2019ll always be here,\u201d Michael said without hesitation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The words hung in the air. Both froze, staring at each other, momentarily lost.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, the plane hit turbulence, jolting violently. Winnie instinctively gripped the armrest, her knuckles whitening.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Michael noticed her reaction and gently covered her hand with his. \u201cDon\u2019t be afraid. It\u2019s just normal turbulence.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>11\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnie forced a smile. \u201cI\u2019m not afraid.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Despite her words, her hand closed firmly around his.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>P\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billionaire\u2019s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 320 Advertisement Read Billionaire&#039;s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 320 \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-26841","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\/26841","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=26841"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26841\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26841"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26841"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26841"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
