When the Boss’ Lady Became His Sister-in-law

Chapter 28

Vincent’s expression soured once more. Clearly, it was a blot on his past he still found hard to swallow.

The thought of his fiancée, his high school sweetheart, hooking up with another guy and getting busted in a hotel by him was too much to bear.

She shielded the other guy at every turn, refusing to spill the beans on who he was, and even had the nerve to have the guy’s kid.

“Kristin, aren’t you looking for a school for your child? I heard the butler’s son has a place in a top–notch school district, complete with a kindergarten, elementary, and middle school in the neighborhood. Marry him, and you’ll get your child’s education in the bag,” Ruby mentioned casually.

Kristin had no clue how vile they could get. The burn on her hand throbbed painfully behind her back. She didn’t dare fight back, nor did she offer any objections.

“So, you want to fix the little bastard’s schooling? Ah, are you going to tie the knot or not?” Vincent was itching to see how far Kristin would go for that man’s child and how shameless she could be.

Seeing Kristin stay mum, Vincent got antsy. “Get lost.”

Kristin picked up the shattered plate off the floor and walked out.

“Vinny, since you’ve agreed, I’ll get right on it. The butler has been slaving away for the FitzGerald family for years. It’s only right we lend a hand,” Ruby said, her face a picture of kindness and generosity.

Vincent cuddled Ruby to console her. “Sure, whatever you want to do is fine by me.”

As for Kristin, she had it coming. She was just one of those who couldn’t survive without a man, and this was her just deserts.

Kristin checked the time after rinsing her scalded hand with cold water downstairs.

It was already seven in the evening. Kristin wanted to know if Summer had dinner.

Just two more hours, and she could head home.

“Where’s Kristin? That tramp spilled the soup meant for Miss Ruby and even scalded her. I’ll skin her alive.”
