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

Chapter 96

Kristin nodded and ladled some soup for Rhett.

Rhett was stunned for a while. He’d already had dinner but still felt the urge to dig in.

Kristin was eating cautiously, and when Rhett put down his fork, she quickly followed suit and got up to clean up.

Rhett pitched in and loaded the dishes Into the dishwasher, something he wouldn’t bother with in a million years.

“We’re partners, not master and servant outside of work hours.” Rhett told Kristin, saying she didn’t need to bust her chops.

Crouched beside the dishwasher, Kristin fidgeted for quite some time.

Her fingertips grew cold, and she looked down at the floor, feeling deflated. Five years behind bars left her out of sync with society, clueless about these fancy newfangled gadgets.

Seeing Kristin frozen in place, Rhett squatted beside her and peeked at the dishwasher, whispering, “I don’t know how to work this thing, either. Let’s have the housekeeper deal with it

tomorrow.”

Kristin looked up at Rhett, her heart racing.

He said he didn’t know how to use it either.

She knew Rhett was clueless because he never bothered with such things, but she still felt like a comfort to her.

“I’ll learn from the maid tomorrow,” Kristin said with a smile to Rhett.

Rhett chuckled softly. “Okay, and then you can teach me.

Kristin’s face flushed, and she looked down, fiddling with her fingers.

“Don’t be too kind to me.” She thought inwardly, “I don’t deserve it, and I’m scared.”

“The master bedroom on the first floor is right here, sunny and spacious. The walk–in closet. should be to your liking.” Rhett said, knowing Kristin probably hadn’t picked a room and took

Kristin nodded, then ducked into the room and hid behind the door. “Goodnight, Mr. FitzGerald,” she said.

Rhett wanted to say more, but Kristin’s “goodnight” shut him up. She was seriously socially awkward.

With a nod, Rhett headed upstairs.
