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,

But he couldn’t call off the engagement with the Haywood family on a whim, Carter’s health had been tragile, and any upset could be disastrous.

“Alright… where are you? I’ll come to you,” Kristin sald softly.

“Where are you working? I can pick you up, and we can head straight there,” James pushed, eager to know her workplace, a detail even Bill couldn’t uncover.

“The Fitzgerald Group…” Kristin didn’t hide it. She knew sooner or later, he would find out.

She intended to stand by Rhett’s side in the future.

“I’ll be there soon,” he finally said, his voice heavy.

Kristin took a deep breath and hung up. She neatly arranged the items on her desk and left the

office space.

Most of the company’s employees had left for the day. Employees on, the ground floor mostly held entry–level positions, not requiring overtime.

“See her? That’s Kristin, the so–called heiress. The shameless one who tried to con her way into marrying into the Fitzgerald family, nearly becoming our company’s lady boss.”

“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.”

Near the entrance, a group of middle managers gathered as If waiting to see what sort of person Kristin was.
