LittleNovelChapter 633: He would support her, even if her opponent was Whitney.
Khloe's eyes flickered with surprise and gratitude at Henrik's response. She hadn't expected him to cto terms with the situation so quickly, let alone offer his unwavering support without hesitation.
She noticed his eyes were intense and focused. They were burning. And when he looked at her, they seemed to sparkle with a galaxy of emotions.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough Henrik didn't say anything, Khloe inexplicably felt he wanted to tell her she was the most important person in his eyes.
The look in his eyes made her heart race. She instinctively wanted to avoid Henrik's gaze. But then, he suddenly reached out and cupped her face.
"Khloe..." Henrik sounded a little nervous. It was as if he was about to say something particularly unusual.
Khloe was flustered. As she racked her brain for ways to avoid what was about to happen, Fiona walked in and said, "Miss Evans, someone is outside." But as soon as Fiona spoke, she noticed the strange atmosphere in the living room. She quickly lowered her head, blushing in embarrassment.
Khloe took this opportunity to avoid Henrik and act as if nothing had happened. She looked at Fiona and asked, "Fiona, what's going on outside?" Fiona was obviously upset, but when she thought of the person waiting outside, she cleared her throat and said, "Eric is outside. He says he has something important to talk to you about. Do you want to see him?" Khloe's eyes narrowed at the mention of Eric. A mix of disdain, curiosity, and suspicion flashed across her face. She turned to Henrik, whose expression darkened immediately. Then, with a cold smile, she said, "Let him in." She wanted to see what tricks Eric had up his sleeve.
Turning her attention to Henrik, Khloe said, "You should head back to your room." The light in Henrik's eyes dimmed as his lips pressed into a hard line. After a pause that stretched uncomfortably, he finally muttered, "Fine." Just as Fiona reached the doorway, Khloe's exchange with Henrik caught her attention. Frustration bubbled up within her-she regretted walking in at that moment.
Step into a new world at galThe thought of Khloe and Henrik clashing after Eric's departure only amplified her unease.
Meanwhile, Eric strolled into the living room, his nerves subsiding when he saw Khloe alone. A tinge of emotion colored his voice as he said, "Khloe, I can tell you still care about me." Lifting her gaze slowly, Khloe fixed Eric with an icy stare, her voice cutting through his act. "Are you prepared for another trip to the hospital after barely recovering?" Eric froze, his confident facade cracking.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKhloe pressed on mercilessly. "If you have something to say, say it. Don't hide behind your false bravado—it's as pathetic as it is irritating." Her words struck hard, and Eric faltered. Any hope he had clung to when she allowed him in evaporated under her cold disdain.
Struggling to salvage the conversation, he said cautiously, "Khloe, can't we sit down and talk ΟΜ things through after al that's happened? Sloane has paid for her actions. She deceived me, manipulated me-I was blinded by her lies, which led to so many doubts about you. Now that everything's out in the open, I realize I was wrong." Eric's tone softened, his affectionate mask slipping back into place. "Khloe, please givea chance to make things right. I swear, if you'll cback to me, I'll marry you on the spot. Whatever you want, I'll do it. Khloe, we've been through so much together.”
A sharp, mocking smile curved on Khloe's lips. Without hesitation, she laid bare the ugliest depths of Eric's intentions. "You? Talki Talking about love with me? You truly believe that as long as you're willing to cback, I'd simply forget everything you've done and fall into your arms again? Take a good look in the mirror. You're not even worth a fraction of what you think you are, let alone a single strand of my hair."
The color drained from Eric's face, leaving behind a mixture of humiliation and anger. Khloe didn't stop there. "You really think I can't see through your schemes? The m Watson family's heir selection is underway, and you're desperate. Without me, your chances are slim to none. Eric, it's laughable. Years have gone by, and you haven't changed one bit. You always wanted it all-the prestige, the freedom, the power-and yet, you never wanted to work for it yourself. You clung to women who could help you climb, but the weight of your insecurities drove you to betray the very people who lifted you up. You're not just unworthy-you're awful." mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
