Chapter 414:
Fiona, noticing the question in her eyes, didn’t hold back. “I overheard Mr. Watson take a call this morning. It
seems there's an issue with the election. The man he set up for it has run into sproblems.”
“Problems?” Khloe repeated, still puzzled. With Henrik’s power and influence, there weren't many who could
challenge him. “Who's behind it?”
Fiona sighed. “Conroy Dayton, the Mayor of Zhecrora. He's technically Mr. Watson's uncle, but he’s always seen
Mr. Watson as a threat, almost like an enemy.”
Thinking it over, Khloe wasn’t shocked. It made sense that Henrik’s trouble had cfrom a member of the
Dayton family.
Under Whitney's leadership, the Dayton family had built a powerful legacy, amassing considerable wealth and
influence, particularly in the biotechnology industry. Even the Watson family, once under the leadership of
Morris, had struggled to keep up with them. If it weren't for Henrik’s exceptional abilities, the Dayton family
would have been the most powerful family in the country.
Additionally, because Henrik’s mother cfrom the Dayton family, he couldn’t be as ruthless with them. Unlike

“Got it.” Khloe knew it wasn’t her place to interfere in the conflict between Henrik and the Dayton family. Since it
was the Dayton family and not smysterious enemy, she decided not to dwell on it. “Fiona, I'm going
shopping with Tess today. If Henrik asks where | am, please tell him.”
“Okay,” Fiona responded happily, appreciating that Khloe was taking the initiative to keep Henrik informed. It
would definitely reassure him.
Fiona smiled warmly, quietly grateful for the unexpected event that had brought Khloe and Henrik closer.
Without it, Khloe would still be keeping her distance from him. She had long been aware of the unspoken tension
between Khloe and Henrik. Though they appeared close, they maintained distinct boundaries in their
relationship, unlike most engaged couples. However, after yesterday's events, it seemed things were starting to
shift.
Khloe caught Fiona’s teasing look, her cheeks warming slightly. She cleared her throat and said, “Well, I'll be
going then.”

Khloe was chauffeured to meet Tess, but this time, their destination wasn’t a mall. They were heading to a
prestigious private club, a haven for luxury goods and limited-edition cars, exclusively for the wealthy. Only
those with assets exceeding one billion or connections to powerful circles could even get past the entrance.
Their meeting spot was a four-story car dealership located on the outskirts of the club.
The moment Khloe stepped inside, Tess waved eagerly at her. “Khloe, over here.”
Khloe glanced over and was surprised to spot Rhett standing next to Tess. He was the head of Evergreen Capital
and also a professor at Zhecrora University, so his schedule was usually packed. Khloe hadn't seen him much
lately, so she was curious why he was here today.
She walked over to them, giving the pair a curious glance. “What brings you two together?”
Rhett quickly clarified, “Don’t get the wrong idea; it's all thanks to your fiancé. As soon as Fiona mentioned you
were going shopping with Tess, he made sure I'd be your bodyguard.”
Tess grinned and nodded. “Exactly. Henrik toldto put it on his tab. Buy whatever catches your eye.”
Khloe let out a sigh. “I have Gloria with me. What's there to be concerned about?”
Rhett shook his head with a serious expression. “Things have been a little tense recently. While Gloria is tough, if
someone resorts to dirty tricks or tries to overpower her with their influence, it could bechard to manage.”
Remembering Fiona’s warning about possible trouble for Henrik, Khloe paused to think for a moment before
agreeing to let Rhett cwith them. After the usual greetings, the car dealership manager, who had been
waiting nearby, stepped forward and introduced himself. “I'm Shelton Fernandez, and it's a pleasure to serve
