When the Boss’ Lady Became His Sister-in-law
Chapter 165
Chapter 165
“Security is just for show now?” Rhett’s voice was a low grumble as he questioned York.
York looked utterly clueless. After all, security wasn’t his department.
Mr. FitzGerald had been acting off lately, glaring at him as if he was some kind of eyesore. “Mr. FitzGerald, I’ll speak to the head of security right away and ensure they tighten things up,” York murmured, almost to himself.
“Rhett…” Hertha trembled her voice, her eyes brimming with unshed tears. “Rhett, I’m here on behalf of my family about the whole mess with Adrienne. We need to talk.”
Rhett glanced at the calendar. Tomorrow was the deadline he’d set for the Haywood family.
He closed his office door with a click and, all business, led Hertha to the VIP meeting
room.
Cameras were everywhere.
Rhett was making it crystal clear that this was strictly business with Hertha.
Taking a deep breath, Hertha steeled herself and followed Rhett into the meeting room.
“This whole debacle is Adrienne’s fault. She’s the baby of the family, and our parents spoiled her rotten. As her sister, I’m partly to blame,” Hertha said, her voice choked with emotion and seemingly full of remorse.
Rhett had no interest in the sob story. “So, what’s the deal?”
“We will hold a press conference, admit to Adrienne’s mistakes and publicly apologize to Kristin. Then, we’ll send Adrienne abroad,” Hertha said, clenching her fingers tightly.
To the Haywood family, these actions implied cutting Adrienne loose. Yet, for Hertha, this could represent a gleam of hope. Despite the blow to the family’s reputation, she would emerge as the victim, garnering sympathy.
With Adrienne out of the picture, the family’s resources would be channeled into Hertha.
She was the eldest, after all. The Haywood family and the Bryce family had an engagement pact, and her parents had thought of Adrienne first, not her.
Even though Hertha didn’t want the engagement with James, it still stung to feel less favored.
