Chapter 227:

Jada wasted no time in teasing, “Khloe, your boyfriend doesn’t seem all that great, does he? Didn’t he say he’d pick you up? So where is he? Looks like you’re not as important to him as you thought.”

Khloe shot Jada a frosty glance, too uninterested to reply. She remained silent, standing still as she waited for Henrik to arrive. The others, noticing no one had come for Khloe, started to reconsider. They had been intimidated when Khloe had mentioned firing Lisbeth, but now they wondered if her sugar daddy was really as powerful as they had feared.

Maybe he was just an influential figure in the legal world, and they didn’t need to fear Khloe.

When Jada’s taunt went unanswered, they assumed Khloe was scared.

One man, bald and with a smirk on his face—who had once tried to pursue Khloe but was firmly turned down—joined in the laughter. “Khloe, doesn’t it bother you to be with an older guy? I bet you’re not really satisfied, are you? Why don’t you accept me? I’d treat you way better. After all, we were classmates, and I make a million a year now. I can easily afford your salary.” As he spoke, he moved closer to Khloe, the stench of smoke and alcohol making her stomach turn.
