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

Chapter 118

Holcomb ignored Kristin and said to the people In the PR department, “Call the cops.” Lisa appeared to exhale in relief. “Exactly, Mr. Holcomb, why give her an explanation? A woman with a criminal record doesn’t deserve a chance and should be reported to the police straight away.”

“Can we give Kris one more shot? Just let her walk away from the company,” Hertha pleaded with a genuinely concerned expression.

Holcomb snorted. “Hertha, don’t let your heart rule your head. Your sister’s still locked up because of her.”

Hertha sighed deeply, her face etched with regret. “It’s just that Kris doesn’t seem like a bad egg.”

“You can’t judge a book by its cover,” Lisa chimed in with a snide comment.

Kristin, however, remained calm throughout, sitting silently until Holcomb and the PR team had left. Then she turned to Lisa. “I couldn’t care less, but I’ve got a recording here that you might be interested in hearing.”

Lisa, who was about to leave, tensed up upon hearing about the recording.

“What are you on about?” Lisa asked, confused.

Kristin coolly took out her phone and played the recording.

She had sent the audio file to Rhett the day it was made.

After the recording finished, Lisa turned pale, staring at Kristin in disbelief and horror. “You… you set me up!”

Recording from day one, Kristin had been gunning for her!

“Do you know what it means to be killed by others‘ fake praises, Lisa?” Kristin said, turning off the recording and deftly sidestepping with her phone in hand. “I have plenty of copies of this recording. Snatching my phone won’t help you.”

Lisa trembled her fingers with anger as she pointed at Kristin. “What the hell do you want!”

“Over the years, as a longstanding employee holding the juicy position of HR, you’ve been coddled by Nicola to be arrogant,” Kristin said composedly, her voice steady.
