Billionaire's Match (Khloe and Nick Hunt) novel Chapter 827

Chapter 827

Bonus

Could it be that Ethan had anticipated Oscar’s move and set things in motion ahead of time?

With Oscar forced back and his pride wounded, it would be even harder for him to come up with a way to retaliate against Ethan.

Winnie, knowing Charlotte was anxious, could only urge her to stay calm. After all, Clarice hadn’t acted yet, and Ethan hadn’t stirred up trouble at the Morrison Group. Perhaps there was still a chance to turn things around.

As soon as Ethan returned to his office, he received a call from Clarice. She had already heard what had happened on his end.

Everything was unfolding exactly as she had planned. Ethan’s bold actions at the Morrison Group would naturally draw the attention of the Morrison family. Even if it weren’t Oscar, he would still face an investigation.

Clarice had coordinated with Ethan in advance. She wanted everyone to believe she was desperate to extract the Morrison Group’s assets. In reality, what she sought were the company’s core patents-far more valuable than any project or asset.

And with Khloe’s assets already transferred under her control, it was only a matter of time before her plans took full effect once Khloe vanished completely.

“Everything is under control. Mom, rest assured.”

Ethan hung up and turned to watch the data transferring on his computer, the smile disappearing from his lips.

Meanwhile, Clarice set down her phone and took another call from the butler. On the other end was Spence.

They were communicating through an encrypted overseas line. Spence had returned to the country and was waiting for her to wrap up her affairs before escorting her out.

Clarice glanced at the time. With Ethan’s data transfer not finishing until at least noon tomorrow, she didn’t intend to wait that long-she didn’t fully trust him.

“I’ll leave for the airport first thing tomorrow morning.”

She paused, then asked about Khloe and Nick.

“Don’t worry,” Spence replied. “As long as you leave safely, everything will be over.”

Having confirmed that Nick was no longer in Naraida, his attention had returned to domestic matters. Current information confirmed Nick was in Goldmont City, and Khloe’s disappearance was likely connected to him. No matter what the two of them were planning, he would return personally to handle the aftermath.

Clarice pressed her lips together, her voice softening. “Spence, thank you.”

“I promised,” he said, his voice on the line gentle and full of emotion, “for the rest of my life, I’ll do everything I can to protect

you.”

For a moment, Clarice felt a flicker of warmth at his words. But once the call ended, her expression returned to icy detachment. She had believed in men before, only to be awakened to reality by Niel’s actions. In this world, the only person she could truly

trust was herself.

Late at night, Charlotte took the access card Khloe had left and decided to check the CEO’s office. To her surprise, Ethan had also

entered.

Charlotte had spent the entire day thinking. Perhaps Ethan’s actions at the Morrison Group weren’t impulsive-they were deliberate. His intentions were not in the obvious, surface-level inatters.

She had planned to look for any suspicious clues, not expecting to actually run into him.

She gently pushed the door open, trying to use her phone to discreetly capture Ethan’s movements.

At that moment, footsteps echoed in the hallway behind her.

It was late, though not yet the time for security patrols. Who could possibly be coming to the CEO’s office now?
