Chapter 284:
Sloane shuddered, barely able to keep her composure. How had Khloe figured it out so quickly? And just how
powerful was Henrik’s network?
Sloane's mind raced with the memory of Henrik’s icy stare and the quiet strength he carried. The mere thought
of facing him, should Khloe give the word, made her blood run cold.
Her voice cracked slightly. “Khloe, please. | know | messed up. When your bodyguard broke my legs, | was so
angry. | wasn’t thinking clearly. Please, don’t tell Henrik. | promise, | won't do it again.”
“Oh, now you're scared? You should be. But I'll let you off easy this time—this mess isn’t big enough to drag
Henrik into it. Be thankful for that.” Her tone was as rigid as ever, with an edge of superiority. “But listen, Sloane,

deeper trouble than you can imagine.”
When Sloane heard Khloe’s condescending tone, a surge of resentment and anger welled up inside her. She

to thank for that.
If only such a powerful man were hers! The fleeting thought crossed Sloane's mind.

Sloane took a steadying breath and spoke in a calm voice. “Fine. | get it. I'll clear things up about Celeste and
shut down the rumors.”
But there was a dark gleam in her eyes.
Khloe wanted clarification? Sloane would make sure Khloe’s nwas forever linked to shame.

she looked fragile and pure, the perfect image of innocence. With carefully practiced sadness, she filmed a video

recent situation at Deep Blue. As many of you know, Deep Blue is owned by my family, and | manage it. It was

supported Celeste’s treatment. | take full responsibility for the error. The compensation Celeste received was not
extortion, as speople have said. Khloe should not be blamed for this. | hope everyone can approach this
with understanding and kindness.”
Once the video was ready, Sloane instructed her assistant to post it on her blog.
The reaction was swift and overwhelming.

“Sloane's in the hospital? What happened to her? No wonder she hasn't been around. And now she’s defending
Khloe? Something's off about this.”
