Chapter 8 - Khloe’s Choice

Khloe was discharged two days later.

Doctors ordered rest.

Marcus wanted to take her somewhere private.

Away from cameras.

Away from the city.

Khloe refused.

“I’m not hiding.”

Marcus looked at her.

“You need peace.”

“I need to live.”

He understood.

A week later, Khloe returned to the Thorne Foundation offices.

Not for a public event.

Not for cameras.

Just to work.

Elaine met her at the entrance.

“You’re sure?”

Khloe smiled.

“No.”

Elaine laughed.

“But I’m here anyway.”

Marcus watched from his office.

For the first time, he understood what had attracted him to Khloe.

Not her beauty.

Not her grace.

Her strength.

She had been attacked.

Humiliated.

Threatened.

And still, she walked back into the world.
