Chapter 34

Bolted from the hospital, Kristin glanced at her watch and made a beeline for the FitzGerald

Mansion.

She couldn’t afford to be late. She desperately needed that ten grand to sort out Summer’s

A few strides in, and Kristin’s heart was stabbing her something fierce.

Before kicking the bucket, she had to find the creep who forced himself on her six years back at a hotel. He was Summer’s biological dad, and Kristin needed him to play ball for a paternity test.
