Flash Marriage to a Stunning CEO (Alistair and Richard)

Chapter 145 Body Swapped

Right then, Julian wasn't just Caroline's assistant. He was more

like the concerned uncle of Caroline's kid. “Look, might as well

tell you straight up. Grandma said you should skip visiting her this

week."

Caroline's face was a stone mask. "Like he's important enough for

me to change my plans?"

Julian sighed, "Boss lady, please. Grandma's not getting any younger. She can't handle all that fighting and drama..."

Alistair was completely lost, suddenly feeling like he'd walked into

a private conversation he wasn't supposed to hear.

Caroline, who always, always considered his feelings, wasn't

about to let him feel left out. She explained, "Leo and I, we've

been like cats and dogs since we were kids. We've literally thrown punches. We just rub each other the wrong way. He's in New York for his concerts, so he's definitely going to see Grandma.

She's just worried that if we run into each other, it'll be World War

Three."

Julian's next sentence sent Alistair's dislike of Leo spiraling into full-blown loathing.

"Alistair, you know, back in the day, I don't know if this jerk did

it just to mess with Carol or what, but he actually tried to set

her up with one of his showbiz buddies. The guy's some kind

of mega-idol now, got a whole army of psycho fans. Anyway,

he was relentlessly hounding Carol, even swore he'd quit the entertainment industry for her. Carol laid him out with one punch, and he finally got the message!"

Caroline shot him a look that could freeze fire. "Julian!"

She'd be the first to admit she could be pretty damn ruthless when dealing with people who got under her skin. She generally didn't give a crap what anyone else thought of her, anyone except Alistair.

There was a side of her, a fierce, violent side, that she didn't want Alistair to see. She was afraid it would scare him off...
