Contract Marriage with My CEO Boss

Chapter 82

Chapter 82

It was for the best really. The palms of his hands still housed bandages, though they weren't wrapped anymore. The bandages served as a reminder of what Katrina witnessed Kylan go through, and it only surged her mind into a spiral of familiar questions while she attempted to work. Should she still resign from Ross Corporation Should she reinstate the contract, but with new rules? Did Kylan want to actually date her? She was going on a real date that evening, but what did that mean, exactly)

She didn't know. She also didn't know how receptive Kylan would be to her asking him his thoughts on the matter. She was certain she couldn't and shouldn't bring anything up until she was away from work, though.
