Chapter 630: "Khloe, save me... please..." Sloane's voice was a fragile whisper, but the desperation in her eyes was undeniable.
Khloe's eyelids fluttered briefly, her voice calm and distant. "The bullet has pierced your chest cavity. If you want to survive, it needs to be removed-open chest surgery. But you know, as well as I do, there's a high chance you won't survive another surgery. You're askingto operate because I'm the only one who can save you right now. But..." Khloe paused, a cold smile curving her lips. "Why do you think I would save you? The evidence you have on the Dayton family's crimes is no longer enough leverage. I won't save you unless you also have evidence on Eric." Sloane hadn't expected Khloe's bold demand. Her eyes grew wide with shock. Staring at Khloe, she struggled to find her voice. After a long pause, she asked, "What do you want to do?" Sloane now realized that Khloe must have already gathered information before making this demand, so questioning it further seemed futile.
Khloe raised an eyebrow, her expression cold. "It serves my purpose." Sloane fell silent, unable to respond.

If Eric were removed from the picture, Sloane's dream of marrying into the Watson family would vanish. She would lose her chance at the glittering life she had long imagined.
But throughout her imprisonment and the current life-or-death situation, Eric had never once cto her aid- not even with a message or a subordinate. He had dumped her.
Khloe remained unfazed, knowing Sloane was weighing her options. She turned to Henrik, her tone as measured as ever. "The person who shot Sloane is likely from the Dayton family. As for the one who targeted me..." Her eyes furrowed as she recalled the bullet aimed at her, and a flicker of doubt crossed her face. “It seems to be from the Dayton family too. However, the person who stopped the shooting was also from the Dayton family." gvlis packed with great reads Henrik frowned slightly, a flash of understanding crossing his face. "The person who shot Sloane is likely from a different faction of the Dayton family, possibly connected to Sheri. As for the shooter targeting you, it must be one of Sheri's people." This meant that the Dayton family had shown a split in their intentions towards Khloe. One faction wanted her dead, while the other sought to protect her. As for the person who shot Henrik, they were not tied to the Dayton family, though further investigation was needed.
"I'll tell!" Just as Khloe and Henrik continued to piece together the puzzle, Sloane's voice rang out, filled with newfound resolve.
Sloane met Khloe's gaze, her pale lips trembling. "Since Eric feels nothing for me, I have no reason to keep any feelings for him." A cold smirk flashed across Khloe's face.
It was all a facade.
The truth was, Sloane had never truly loved Eric; she simply didn't want to tarnish her reputation, so she shifted the blto him.

Khloe's voice was calm. "After the surgery, you'll hand over the om evidence, Sloane, dan save you, but I I I can also turn your life into a nightmare.” Her words were sharp—a warning. She wasn't interested in more arguments with Sloane after the surgery.
Her decision to save Sloane wasn't driven by any misplaced sense of i sainthood, nor out of idle curiosity! Besides gaining access to crucial evidence, she aimed to control the course of Sloane's treatment, ensuring that her illness wouldn't involve innocent medical staff.
More importantly, Khloe saw this as an opportunity—a chance to study Sloane's case, a living example of an AIDS patient, and perhaps find a way to combat the disease through this treatment. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
