Chapter 110

In the executive office, Kristin’s phone was buzzing incessantly.

Rhett’s displeasure was evident as Kristin fumbled to silence her phone.

He didn’t force Kristin to turn off her phone, knowing James would be left hanging if she didn’t

York had texted earlier, saying that James‘ car was parked downstairs, clearly there to pick up

Kristin.

“Copy this document a hundred times,” Rhett said, giving Kristin a task.

Kristin glanced at the document, which was a set of employee guidelines. A hundred copies? “Mr. FitzGerald, are these for distribution to the entire staff?” she asked.

Rhett looked up from his papers and fixed her with a gaze.

woman.

Rhett acted this way, he was trying to warn James that Kristin was
