Beneath Her Bastard Boss
Chapter 36
Roman stepped out of his office, his mind still spinning from the encounter with Jessica. He clenched his jaw as he spotted Blair and Kara talking over Blair’s desk. Blair’s arms were crossed, her expression unreadable, but there was an edge to the way she stood. He could see she was tense.

“I’m really sorry-”
“It’s not your fault,” he cut her off. “Jessica is manipulative and has no boundaries. You don’t have to apologize for her.”
Kara looked relieved, nodding quickly. Blair, however, kept her gaze steady on him, like she was trying to figure out what was going on in his head. Roman didn’t give her the chance.
“Blair. My office. Now.”
He didn’t wait for a response, just turned and walked back inside, knowing she would follow. And she did. A moment later, she was shutting the door behind her, arms still crossed as she watched him.

Roman ran a hand through his hair. Glad she was feeling as mixed up as he was. But he had a feeling he was about to increase her feeling of not being in control. “We have bigger issues right now.”
“What?” she prompted.
