His hand slid up, gently pressing against the back of her head, as though shielding her from every filthy word ringing in her ears. Normally, he might have let it go.<\/p>\n<p>But today, with him here, how could he possibly allow Khloe to face such ugliness alone? Thinking of the life she\u2019d endured all these years, his heart ached -and beneath that ache burned anger. The faint smile at the corner of his mouth vanished. He lifted his gaze and looked coldly at the old woman. Lauren felt a sudden chill run down her spine But seeing him glare at her while holding Khloe so protectively only made her breathing grow heavier. \u201cI\u2019m talking to Khloe. You don\u2019t get to interrupt!\u201d \u201cYou said this place was bought with Trey\u2019s money?\u201d \u201cYes!\u201d Lauren barked.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKhloe used our family\u2019s money to support \u2014- you!\u201d She wanted to curse them until they had nowhere left to hide. Nick let out a short, derisive laugh. A dark, dangerous smile curved his lips, and the look he cast at Lauren was like a blade meant for slow execution-icy and merciless. Her hunched body shuddered, a chill rippling through her twice in quick succession. All an act, she thought. What kind of decent man could end up with someone like Khloe? He was probably just a pretty face-who knew what kind of filth he was mixed up in?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy wife supporting me,\u201d Nick said evenly, \u201cwould be perfectly natural. But using your Fox family\u2019s money to support me?\u201d His tone sharpened. \u201cYou\u2019re seriously underestimating my wife-and grossly insulting the Hunt family.\u201d He spoke slowly, each word measured. His voice wasn\u2019t loud, yet it struck with bone-deep force, carrying a ruthless edge Even the security guards nearby felt the air grow tense Lauren froze. The Hunt family? \u2014- The name sounded familiar.<\/p>\n<p>In all of Goldmont, there was only one Hunt family-the one whose influence was legendary overseas, unrivaled domestically, and yet famously low-key. But\u2026 how could that be? If the man before her truly belonged to the Hunt family, then let alone their small Fox family-even the Morrison family, the richest in Goldmont, would have to show deference. It was a name no one in the country could afford to offend. Just the thought of it sent cold sweat breaking out across Lauren\u2019s body. The flush drained from her face, leaving it bloodless. \u201cThe Hunt family\u2026 which Hunt family?\u201d she stammered.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t think you can fool an old woman. Since when has there been any Hunt family in Goldmont?\u201d + \u201cThere\u2019s only one Hunt family in Goldmont.\u201d Nestled in Nick\u2019s embrace, Khloe didn\u2019t even bother to struggle anymore. Her voice was calm, almost indifferent. \u201cSince you\u2019re so eager to know my husband\u2019s identity, let me introduce him properly. My husband is the CEO of the Hunt Group-Nick Hunt.\u201d At those words, Lauren nearly collapsed. Her body swayed backward.<\/p>\n<p>The people around her rushed to support her, and even the security team quickly closed in, afraid \u2014- she might cause some kind of incident. If anything happened to her, the responsibility would never fall on Nick or Khloe-people of their stature-but it could easily land on these ordinary guards. Still, looking at the old woman, they couldn\u2019t help feeling a trace of pity. How could one person bring about such a catastrophic disaster? Those words she\u2019d just spoken were enough to bring ruin down upon the entire Fox family.<\/p>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billionaire\u2019s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 455 Advertisement Read Billionaire\u2019s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 455 \u2013 \u2014- [&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-28354","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\/28354","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=28354"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28354\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28354"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28354"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28354"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
