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

Chapter 102

After a hectic afternoon at the office, Kristin hadn’t realised it was time to clock out

Glancing at her notepad, she tidied up her documents and answered a call from James.

“Harriet’s out of danger and has woken up. Don’t worry,” James cut straight to the chase about Hamel’s condition. The hospital stall say she’s a bit emotionally unstable. I’ll pick you up, and we can visit her together.”

James mentioning Harriet was his way of ensuring kristin would go with him.

Deep down, he knew Kristin well enough. Her job hunt in Silvergrove City was nothing but a statement, a declaration of wanting to distance her sell from him.

James thought Kristin was playing games, andry that he hadn’t called off the engagement,

“Unbelievable. This woman has aimed to marry Vincent to be Mr. Fitzgerald’s sister–in–law. The nerve!”

“At least Vincent is our company’s young master, Rhett’s brother. Her scheming is just too much.”

“Pity, now look at her. fresh out of jail.”
