Billionaire's Match (Khloe and Nick Hunt) novel Chapter 1076

"Tell me what's happening, please?"

Nick held her tightly—so tightly that Khloe didn't even dare struggle. At such close range, she could feel his heartbeat racing and his body burning hot.

He was anxious, unsettled… and yet, even so, he still hadn't lost his temper at her.

The mental barrier Khloe had been holding onto collapsed in an instant.

Looking at Nick's tense, trembling frame, she almost reached out to touch his back.

But at the very last moment, reason stopped her.

Khloe closed her eyes. "Nick, can you not be like this? I'm really… just a little tired."

Her voice was steady, word by word—calm, firm, and cold enough to cast someone into an abyss.

She felt his body shudder again.

Taking advantage of the moment his grip loosened, she pushed him away without hesitation.

As expected, Nick looked at her with confusion, completely caught off guard by her indifference.

Beneath his furrowed brows was a face even more unsightly than before.

These past two days, Khloe had deliberately come home early and left late, as if avoiding him at all costs. Nick had been increasingly suffocated by it, sleeping poorly. Dark redness lingered in his eyes, his lips pale and cracked—he looked utterly worn down.

Seeing him like this up close, Khloe's heart ached sharply.

But she knew very clearly: without T7, Nick's condition would only deteriorate day by day.

She quickly withdrew her gaze. "Alright. Go back and rest."

"You're deliberately avoiding me, aren't you?" Nick still refused to step aside. "Khloe, don't think you can fool me. I know you too well…"
