Chapter 483:
Richard, secretly alarmed, felt fortunate that he had recognized Khloe's talent and helped her during the surgery.
Otherwise, Conroy's fate might have been far worse.
Determined to be more cautious in mending his relationship with Khloe, Richard pulled Selena over and insisted
she apologize. “Miss Evans, | heard Selena was disrespectful to you a few days ago and nearly caused a disaster.
| apologize on her behalf. We are willing to compensate you tenfold for any losses. Selena is young and ignorant
—she acts recklessly. | hope you can forgive her.” He spoke with sincerity, his eyes filled with caution.
Selena shed her previous arrogance and disdain. She bowed obediently and said, “Miss Evans, I'm sorry. | was
wrong. Please forgive me.” Her voice trembled slightly, clearly intimidated by the situation.
Khloe was terrifying. How could she have been so foolish as to oppose such a formidable woman? She had been
courting death.
Khloe saw the fear in Selena’s eyes and chose not to press the matter further. “Since you honored the wager and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtgavethe car, we are even now. So, | will keep my word.”
Richard breathed a sigh of relief. “Miss Evans, we are truly fortunate to witness your remarkable surgery today. |
hope | can have an opportunity to discuss medicine further with you. If your lab joins my project to develop an
anticancer drug, I'm confident it will be a tremendous success.”
Khloe gave Richard a subtle smile, appreciating why he was Ouiswell’s top doctor. His talent for reading
situations was indeed impressive.
Had Khloe not demonstrated such commanding authority—one that even Conroy had no choice but to
acknowledge—Richard might not have been so quick to propose sharing the benefits of his project with her
laboratory.
Khloe reflected quietly. Richard, ever the intelligent businessman, always placed profits and influential allies first.
While working with him was possible, a lasting partnership was off the table.
However, Oasis Laboratory was optimistic about developing stronger alliances in the future; for now, their goal
was to build credibility and break into the elite biopharmaceutical sector.

Though Richard’s approach might seem self-serving, it was understandable given the cutthroat nature of their
industry. Leveraging someone like Richard as a catalyst for establishing Oasis Laboratory's prominence seemed
quite advantageous.
Nevertheless, Richard would not be allowed to control the partnership.
Having considered the advantages and risks, Khloe agreed. “Mr. Smith, Oasis Laboratory warmly accepts your
invitation. We look forward to mutually beneficial results.”
After delivering this professional response, Khloe leaned in toward Richard and added, “I gather your anti-cancer
drug isn’t finalized yet. To access the subsequent formula, you'll need to demonstrate genuine commitment.”
With Richard looking on in surprise, Khloe smiled and exited the venue, Henrik following behind her like a
devoted bodyguard.
This left Gloria, Khloe’s actual bodyguard, staying where she was.
Henrik was constantly hovering around Khloe, taking it upon himself to protect her, which left Gloria with nothing
to do.
At that moment, Clinton observed Khloe's retreating figure, his gaze filled with yearning, unable to tear his eyes

Just then, his phone buzzed. An unknown number flashed on the screen. Answering it, Clinton recognized the
voice—it was Artist, who had recently escaped.
Over the phone, Artist teased, “Clinton, do you want a chance to get closer to Khloe, the woman you so admire?
This is a once-in-a-lifetopportunity.”
As Khloe exited the venue, her face remained composed. She glanced back at Henrik, who followed closely, and
asked, “Why have you chere all of a sudden? Weren't you supposed to be at home?”
