1. Can I Sleep With You?

Sighing with laughter, Kara studied her boss’ expression. “What for? They will think I’m a prostitute or a material woman who is after your wealth. Isabela or your grandfather will really kill me.”

“If you agree, I will launch my plan tomorrow. So, on that bastard’s wedding day, I can announce that you are the girl of my choice.”

However, Kara still shook her head. Her guts were no longer as big as they used to be. “Thank you for your good intentions, but no. I have absolutely no interest in putting on any kind of show.”
