I don\u2019t want to make you wait too long.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe\u2019s unspoken thoughts were laid bare by his words, and her cheeks flushed.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The thought of the wedding filled her with anticipation she had never felt before.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Even back when she had been close to Trey, she had been indifferent when he suggested skipping the wedding ceremony, treating it as a mere formality.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But now she realized-even if it were just a formality-experiencing it with the person she loved gave life its true meaning.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She wanted to be a real bride, the most beautiful and happiest bride for Nick.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou just need to focus on healing, so I won\u2019t have to wait too long.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe took the opportunity to remind him again: maintain a positive mindset, get proper rest, take medicine on schedule, and follow the doctor\u2019s advice.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Whether it was her words or the effect of the medicine, Nick soon fell asleep in her arms.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe, however, couldn\u2019t sleep. Thoughts of the wedding made her nervous with excitement. She stayed still, quietly watching him, listening to his steady breathing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Gradually, sleep began to claim her-but just as her eyes were about to close completely, she heard Nick murmur in a low, dreamlike voice.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She immediately rested her hand on the tense line of his back, trying to soothe him-but then, she heard him murmur, \u201c\u2026Michelle\u2026 don\u2019t\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The next day, at the Morrison Group.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Charlotte pushed open the door to Khloe\u2019s office, finding her boss lost in thought.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She had knocked several times, receiving no reply. Seeing the office door ajar, she had entered to check.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKhloe.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe snapped back to reality. \u201cOh, give it to me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Charlotte had just sent her some emails requiring approval. Khloe quickly reviewed the documents again on the spot, signing each one.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But Charlotte noticed something-Khloe pressed her hand on the documents while reading, a telltale sign that her attention wasn\u2019t fully on the task. Charlotte, always perceptive, picked up on these small gestures.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Once she collected the files, Charlotte asked gently, \u201cKhloe, you\u2019re okay, right?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 357\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOh, I\u2019m fine. I was just thinking about something,\u201d Khloe replied calmly, glancing at the time. \u201cBy the way, help me meet someone at the door. She\u2019ll be here soon. Her name is Winnie Olson.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Khloe gave Charlotte a brief description of Winnie\u2019s appearance.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnie was coming to join the Morrison Group today. Khloe asked Charlotte to help her complete the onboarding procedures first, and then they would all have lunch together.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Charlotte nodded and left immediately to handle it.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Once alone, Khloe drew a slow breath and lightly tapped her cheeks as if giving herself courage.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Time to work-she needed to stop wandering in thought.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nick had only said something in his sleep; she might even have misheard it. Even if he had truly called \u201cMichelle \u201d in his dream\u2026 it didn\u2019t mean anything.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Still, no matter how she tried to reason with herself, Khloe couldn\u2019t help thinking of what Michelle had once said: that Nick had only seen her as a substitute.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Michelle had believed that Khloe resembled her in temperament and appearance. Khloe had previously dismissed it as Michelle\u2019s own imagination, but\u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnie had received the call from Morrison Group\u2019s HR in the morning. At first, she thought it was a mistake.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Then Khloe herself had called, inviting her to join the pharmaceutical R&amp;D department.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>2\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 35\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billionaire\u2019s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 357 Advertisement Read Billionaire&#039;s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 357 \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-26878","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\/26878","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=26878"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26878\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26878"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26878"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26878"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
