Billionaire's Match (Khloe and Nick Hunt) novel Chapter 789

Noah set down his fork and looked up, eyes narrowing as he studied Charlotte.

Charlotte blinked. "What? Just because I've never had a boyfriend doesn't mean I can't reflect on love, right?"

"Fair enough." Noah smiled, leaning back in his chair with an easy confidence. "I've never been in a relationship either. But sometimes, when you see real love... it gets you thinking."

"Wait—you've never had a girlfriend?" Charlotte's eyes went wide, a flicker of something hopeful in them.

Noah reached for a piece of dental floss, glancing at her. "Yeah. Do I not look the type?"

"Not at all." Charlotte shook her head firmly. "You look like a total player."

Noah paused mid-motion, then let out a short laugh. "A player? I didn't grow up on Hollywood rom-coms—you're gonna have to spell that one out."

"It means a guy who's smooth, gets around, and doesn't take love seriously," Charlotte explained.

Noah's smile tightened. He straightened in his seat, suddenly all business. "A player? Seriously? What part of me says that?"

He shrugged off his jacket as he spoke. Charlotte quickly turned her gaze away.

"What are you doing?"

"Look at this," Noah said, flexing his arms with unmistakable pride. "Check out these guns."

Charlotte's gaze drifted back despite herself. His build was impressive—lean and muscular. She remembered noticing it at the phone store, but now, with him this close, the definition in his arms and chest made her cheeks warm.

Noah's pecs shifted slightly as he talked, a smug edge creeping into his voice. "I'm the strong, silent type. Not like those pretty boys who just coast on charm."
