Billionaire's Match (Khloe and Nick Hunt) novel Chapter 839

Chapter 839

Sensing the tension, the officials stepped forward to signal Nick and Khloe to take their seats.

Michelle panicked and immediately fired back at Barney. “Why can’t the speaker be changed? There’s no rule forbidding it. In the event of unforeseen circumstances, a representative can be replaced. I only stepped in temporarily to speak on behalf of the Hunt Group today. Now that Nick and Khloe are both present, they naturally have the right to continue.”

“Unforeseen circumstances? Has the Hunt Group reported the specifics to the officials?” Barney’s sharp voice cut through the room again

This time, Nick responded calmly, his voice clear and commanding. “The speaker need not be changed. As you can see, our project plan and our sincerity are already fully evident. Changing the speaker will add nothing further.”

Khloe listened to Nick’s steady voice, her lips curving into a faint, approving line. Nick’s presence–his aura–was just as commanding as ever.

The audience, still unaware of what Nick and Khloe intended, fell into a hushed silence. Even Barney showed a flicker of hesitation. 1

At that moment, the hall doors swung open again. Lenny appeared, escorting a man flanked by two uniformed officers, and approached Khloe and Nick.

“Sir, the person has been brought.”

“Ladies and gentlemen,” Khloe said, “if I may take just two minutes, we wish to make a formal clarification to everyone here.”

Barney sensed something was amiss and instinctively rose to intervene, but Khloe’s words cut him off.

She addressed the officials directly. “Recently, numerous false reports about the Hunt Group have circulated online. Out of responsibility to this project, to all investors in Goldmont, and to the public following us, we have an obligation to publicly set the record straight.”

“Moreover,” she continued, “these events involve not only Hunt Group, but also Solara Energy, For the sake of a fair and transparent bidding process, I believe everyone here has a right to know the truth.”

The crowd remained silent; no one objected. With the event being livestreamed, there was no legitimate reason to prevent it,

Once permitted, Lenny cooperated with the authorities and made the explanation public.

The person Lenny brought forward was the former editor–in–chief of Goldmont City Financial Express, the very person who had published the news of Nick’s supposed death. He had been paid handsomely for it and resigned from his position immediately after posting.

“Police investigation confirmed that the party behind the post was Angela Thompson, a former employee of Solara Energy.”

Previously, Barney had been able to cast the online attack as Khloe stirring the public against Angela, framing it as a personal feud with no ties to Solara Energy. But now, with police publicly clarifying the matter, Solara Energy’s reputation was instantly teetering on the edge.
