been running on fumes lately, so it’s really something that my old man wants to give me a break. Poor Vincent, he’s got his work cut out for him.”
With a casual smile, Rhett signed his name on the resignation letter that York had brought over.
“But as for someone who’s resigned, without my signature, getting back in is going to be a whole different bali game,” Rhett said, throwing down the gauntlet to Holcomb.
Nicola knew all too well that after Rhett’s signature, anyone wishing to be rehired would have to go through HR’s rigorous vetting process.
Rhett, so sure of himself, would never allow Neal to return to the fold.
Even if Neal did, it certainly wouldn’t be in his former position.
“Rhett, you should really take some time off and rest up. The company will run just fine without you,” Vincent said, brimming with confidence
Rhett raised an eyebrow and stood up, adjusting his wristwatch. “I’m out.”
Kristin and York exchanged anxious glances before hurrying after Rhett “Mr. FitzGerald…”
“Cancel all my appointments, except for the Influx Enterprise wedding banquet,” Rhett instructed Kristin after a glance. “Tell our partners I’ve come down with something”
Kristin took a deep breath. “Mr. FitzGerald. Are you giving Vincent a chance on purpose? What if he…”
“He’s got to have the chops for it.” Rhett said with a scornful laugh
“York, you stay and handle the fallout Kristin and I are taking a break” As they entered the elevator, Rhett looked completely at ease, even a bit smug
York was confused. “Why does Kristin get time off too?”
“My personal assistant is supposed to handle my personal life. You’ve got a broader remit, so step up.” Rhett blocked York from the elevator and shut the door
Kristin was flustered, looking anxiously at Rhett “Mr. FitzGerald, are you sure about this?”
“Everything’s arranged,” Rhett checked the time. “Starting now, you don’t have to worry about a thing. Just enjoy the vacation with me
“Huh?” Kristin was flustered. “The Influx heiress wedding is in
“We’ll head out early, have some fun.” Rhett had planned everything in advance
Still in a daze, Kristin followed Rhett out of the elevator.
It seemed like it wasn’t Nicola playing Rhett, but Rhett playing Nicola and Vincent
“Mr. FitzGerald… Did you foresee Mr. Holcomb giving you time off?” Kristin ventured cautiously.
Rhett was in high spirits, having dealt with the thorn in his side, Neal, and now looking forward to a holiday with Kristin Things couldn’t be better
“He’s warning me that if I don’t play ball, I’ll be on permanent vacation,” Rhett understood Holcomb’s message. But this was exactly what Rhett wanted
Kristin hesitated. “Can York handle everything on his own?”
Rhett frowned, pinning Kristin against the car door. “You’re my personal asaletant, why worry

First, he’d need the ability, Rhett said, opening the car door for Kristin and helping her buckle up. “Second, you don’t seem very confident in your man.”
Kristin clutched the seatbelt nervously, at a loss for words.
“What’s mine, no one can take…” Rhett leaned on the seat with one hand, smiling as he spoke again. “And what can be taken, I don’t care for.”
Kristin’s gaze was fixed on Rhett, and for a moment, she found it hard to look away.
“Pack up, we’re flying out today,” Rhett said, starting the car and heading home.
Kristin realized that Rhett was in a hurry to leave, knowing that any delay might give Holcomb a reason to call him back.
“Today?” Kristin was shocked. “Summer…”
“Don’t worry, I’ve taken care of everything with Summer,” Rhett said, his smile hinting at cunning.

Taking a deep breath, Kristin finally got it truly take it easy.
If Kristin wasn’t mistaken, within three days, the FitzGerald Group’s top brass and board of directors would be in an uproar.
Rhett had likely left Vincent with a host of problems that were difficult to solve and prone to error. Once Vincent stumbled, Holcomb would realize that, for now, the FitzGerald Group couldn’t do without Rhett.
Indeed, Rhett hadn’t reached his position by being easy to outmaneuver.
