Billionaire's Match (Khloe and Nick Hunt) novel Chapter 770

Michelle immediately understood Khloe's intention.

Since she herself had a public welfare image, simply standing on the Hunt Group's side carried some potential backlash. But if the goal was to expose Solara Energy's flaws, then it was beyond reproach.

Michelle and Khloe talked for a long time. When the office door opened again, Lenny was still standing closely by the frame. Seeing the two of them emerge, he straightened immediately.

Michelle, as if she had expected this, lifted her chin and shot a sly look at Lenny. "Khloe, have you really thought about changing your assistant?"

"Michelle, I actually think Lenny is quite good. And… it seems to me that you quite like him?" Khloe smiled, as though she'd noticed a small clue, her gaze flicking between Lenny and Michelle.

Since when had a young lady like Michelle started worrying over an assistant?

"He? Me? How could I possibly like him?" Michelle blurted, her cheeks instantly warming with embarrassment.

Lenny, taken aback, immediately tried to clarify, "Madam, don't misunderstand. There is no way I have any personal relationship with Michelle. I absolutely… absolutely will not have any private dealings with her, nor any kind of feelings."

Compared to Michelle's flustered reaction, Lenny's earnestness only made him seem more genuine. But his words inadvertently put Michelle on the defensive, making it look as if she were the one harboring improper thoughts.

"What… what do you mean? You mean you don't like me?" Michelle retorted, unable to swallow her pride.

Seeing the tension between them ready to ignite, Khloe quickly intervened. "Enough, enough. It's lunch time. Lenny, book a restaurant—we'll have lunch with Michelle."
