Chapter 1129
But now, it turned out the rumors were just rumors after all.
Seeing that Barney seemed about to make a call and call in some guys, Khloe caught his arm and said calmly, Trey, you just don’t know when to quit, do you? I let you off the hook last night, and now you’re showing up looking for trouble?”
After obtaining T7 the night before, Khloe had no intention of continuing to entangle with Trey. She left immediately.

Trey had assumed that once she got the drug, she would release Stella and Alicia. But even by today, they were still missing without any contact.
Ariana had also not returned home all night.
He had sent people all over Goldmont City today, practically turning the entire city upside down, yet he still couldn’t find her.
Even worse-recently, Olympus had just secured several major contracts, and payment deadlines were approaching. But all company fund authorization was still in Ariana’s hands. Without Ariana’s signature and seal, Olympus’s cash flow would be cut off immediately.
“Trey, I’ve already given you T7. Shouldn’t you fulfill your promise and release my family and Ariana first?” 1
Knowing he was in no position to provoke Khloe, Trey rubbed his nose and quickly softened his tone.
“Heh.” Khloe raised an eyebrow, her lips curling faintly. “What are you talking about? Since when did I ever make any promise to you?”
“Khloe, are you planning to go back on your word…?”
“Let’s get one thing straight,” Khloe cut in coolly. “Our deal was: I divorce Nick, and you give me T7. Last night, you were the one who broke the agreement. I simply used some methods to retrieve what was mine.
“As for the people you’re talking about-did I ever make any agreement with you regarding them?”
Her words sent a chill from Trey’s head all the way down to his feet.
Khloe was playing him again.
Barney let out a faint, disdainful laugh and couldn’t help but speak as well.
“Trey, you really are good at twisting facts. If I were Khloe, you wouldn’t even be standing here in one piece right now. I suggest you know your place and stop showing up again. There’ve been so many accidents lately, and you don’t even have friends or family around you. If something really happens… you might not even know how you died.”
“You-”
Trey was nearly driven insane with rage. He glared at Barney, but in the end, the fist he had clenched slowly forced itself to relax.
Right now, his people were still in Khloe’s hands. A wise man does not fight when the odds are against him. Khloe hadn’t touched him yet-clearly, she still had lingering feelings for him.
“Khloe…” Trey’s voice turned hoarse. “You ruined my family, forced me to leave the country. I hate you… but even with that hatred, all I ever did was try to make you leave Nick. Don’t you understand my feelings at all?”

He frowned, tears even glimmering faintly in his eyes as he spoke each word slowly, as if moved by his own performance.
But to Khloe, the words were so disgusting that she almost felt like throwing up the meal she had eaten the night before.
“Trey, you are truly the most shameless person I have ever met. No-calling you a person is too generous.”
She tilted her head slightly, lips curving.
“But since I’m in a decent mood today, I can give you a chance to beg me. I’ll consider it if you get on your knees and sincerely beg me.”
Barney glanced at Khloe. He understood her well-no matter how much she hated Trey, she would not waste time like this without a purpose.
She had detained his people but not dealt with him directly. Clearly, she had another plan.
Trey’s face cycled between green and white. Humiliation flooded his entire body, and rage surged straight to his throat.
Once again… he had lost to Khloe.
Seeing that he still hadn’t moved, Khloe glanced at Barney. He immediately opened the car door.
The moment Khloe stepped forward to get in, Trey’s legs suddenly gave way. His knees slammed heavily onto the concrete ground. 1
