I know.\u201d Khloe calmed down, quietly nodding. He had told her the same thing when they watched horror movies together.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nick continued, \u201cBut if it were your wish, I\u2019d be willing to trade my life for yours.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNick! I told you not to say things like that!\u201d Khloe\u2019s tone grew sharper. He had just returned from the brink of death-she was naturally sensitive, and utterly on edge!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut you said the exact same thing\u2026\u201d Nick\u2019s voice had grown thick and slurred.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI-I only said it because I had no choice\u2026\u201d Khloe realized too late that she\u2019d been tricked, quickly biting her lip before whispering, \u201cI said I didn\u2019t.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>After that, she noticed Nick had already gone quiet. His heartbeat had steadied, his breathing even and light, as if he had already fallen asleep.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Waiting a moment to confirm, Khloe gently tugged the blanket over him and stayed by his side, keeping a quiet vigil.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Her own sleepiness wasn\u2019t overwhelming, though, and so she found herself counting his eyelashes instead.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nick\u2019s eyelashes\u2026 were more numerous than a flock of sheep.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Clarice had just received news of Nick\u2019s awakening.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She couldn\u2019t understand it at all. The guys she hired never left loose ends-how could Nick have woken up just like that?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Immediately, she dialed an encrypted number.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s going on? Your people failed? I wanted permanent results! You said it was foolproof!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The voice on the other end sounded impatient. \u201cThe time was too short. There wasn\u2019t a chance to act.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat did you say?\u201d Clarice\u2019s shock was palpable. \u201cYou didn\u2019t make a move?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Had Nick\u2019s accident really been\u2026 an accident?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll handle it. But let me warn you-you have no authority to give orders here.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And with that, the call ended.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Clarice clenched her teeth, frustration boiling in her chest. The other party was part of the underworld; she couldn\u2019t control them completely-but they couldn\u2019t possibly be treating her like a fool, could they?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 334\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019d taken the money, obtained the information\u2026 and yet Nick was still alive?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For a moment, Clarice slammed her hands on the scattered desktop ornaments in frustration, fireless rage coursing through her. Then, almost immediately, an overseas message arrived.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Out of regard for the payment, the other party had explained the situation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nick had suffered an accident near the border. Their operatives couldn\u2019t get close, and backup from the Hunt family had arrived. Security was tight. They would have to wait for the next opportunity.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But the message reassured her: since they had accepted the contract, and the target was George\u2019s son, they would see it through to the end. They would wait until he returned to the country, then act.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Yet, reading this only worsened Clarice\u2019s mood. She hadn\u2019t wanted him to return to Goldmont City in the first place-her plan had been to strike while he was abroad.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMom.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, Ethan\u2019s voice rang out as he pushed the door open without warning, startling Clarice.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho told you to come in? Why didn\u2019t you knock?\u201d she snapped.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI knocked for a long time. I heard a lot of noise inside, and I thought something had happened to you\u2026\u201d Ethan\u2019s eyes swept over the mess on the floor before landing on the phone she had left on the desk.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSay what you need to say.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Clarice rolled her eyes, sitting down heavily in the chair and taking a deep breath to steady herself.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMichael has returned to the country.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ethan\u2019s voice was light and casual, with a trace of teasing that barely registered.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u65e5\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billionaire\u2019s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 334 Advertisement Read Billionaire&#039;s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 334 \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-26855","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\/26855","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=26855"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26855\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26855"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26855"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26855"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
