Billionaire's Match (Khloe and Nick Hunt) novel Chapter 936

Chapter 936

“You… come with me.”

Their conversation was cut off. Michelle didn’t give him a chance to respond-she grabbed Lenny’s arm and pulled him along.

Lenny froze for a moment, surprised, but quickly complied, following her without question.

Estelle hurriedly stood up to call after Michelle, but Michelle didn’t even glance back, leading Lenny

straight to the balcony.

She moved decisively, shutting the balcony door behind them and locking it. Instantly, the raucous party

noises inside were cut off.

The night wind swept over them, sharp and bracing, clearing the haze that lingered in Lenny’s mind- especially after the strong drink he had just downed.

He was flushed, restless, and utterly confused. Michelle had been chatting happily with Edward and the others just moments ago-why was she doing this now?

“Miss Keller?” he finally managed.

“Can you hold your liquor?”

The question froze him. He hesitated, then answered honestly, “Not really… I’m average, I can’t drink that

much…”

“Then why did you drink with Estelle just now? You like her, don’t you?”

Lenny’s face, already tinged with red from the alcohol, darkened further. He immediately raised a hand defensively. “No! That’s impossible! I barely even know her…”

“It’s so late,” Michelle continued, stepping closer. “If you get drunk at someone else’s house, alone with a woman… haven’t you thought about what could happen?”

Her sudden step forward made Lenny instinctively step back.

Though Michelle was petite compared to his tall frame, the energy between them had completely flipped.

Lenny felt like a cornered rabbit, nervous and helpless. He had nowhere left to retreat; his back hit the stone railing.

“Miss Keller, I-I wasn’t thinking… I’ll leave now!” he blurted, eyebrows furrowed, ready to flee.

Michelle yanked on his tie, stopping him. “Leave? Did I say you could leave?”

Seeing Lenny so timid before her, Michelle felt a surge of anger she couldn’t explain.

Earlier, when Estelle had leaned close to him, he had barely resisted. Why should he be trying to escape

now?

“Well… Miss Keller-”

“Estelle is frivolous. She’ll only toy with you. Don’t delude yourself that you can climb higher.”

Michelle interrupted him sharply, her words growing harsher.

Lenny’s expression flickered. After a pause, he said, “I wasn’t thinking like that.”,

A faint pang of disappointment touched him. So, in Michelle’s eyes… that’s how she saw him?

But perhaps it was natural. He was just an assistant, worlds apart from women like them. Misunderstandings were inevitable.

“You weren’t thinking like that, but she was,” Michelle said coldly. She pulled on his neck again, tilting his body closer to hers.

“She likes the kind of guy she hasn’t tried before. She’s generous, she knows how to charm… Just because you didn’t feel anything today doesn’t mean you won’t later.”

Lenny froze.

Their eyes met. In an instant, the distance between them shrank until their brows nearly touched.

Anger burned in Michelle’s gaze; Lenny’s thick eyebrows knit tightly. Yet in their clear, deep eyes, all else vanished-they were utterly focused on each other.

Lenny’s Adam’s apple bobbed.
