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

Chapter 195

Kristin’s eyes rimmed red as she realized that Rhett’s actions weren’t for her, the so–called contract wife, yet she couldn’t help but feel moved.

So, um… shall we go on?” Kristin asked Rhett with a timid voice.

“And why not? You’re not planning to leave the fire you started, are you?” Rhett looked at Kristin with a dangerous glint in his eye.

Kristin’s heart raced as she wrapped her arms around Rhett’s neck.

“Mr. FitzGerald, how long is this vacation supposed to be?” Kristin whispered.

She wanted to know how much longer she could have Rhett all to herself.

People really do become greedier with time.

Now she was finding herself craving a moment alone with Rhett, even if it was just a short one. “No rush. After the wedding reception, I have a special place to take you,” Rhett said, not immediately giving in to Kristin’s advances, but rather carefully drying her hair with a towel.

Her hair, which she hadn’t cut since her release from prison, had grown quickly and was now grazing her shoulders.

“Kristin…” Rhett said with a husky voice, massaging her head as he spoke. “You gotta let your hair grow out.”

Kristin looked up at Rhett and asked quietly, “Do you prefer long hair, Mr. FitzGerald?”

“The first time I saw you, you had long hair,” Rhett said, cupping Kristin’s small face.

“Do you remember the first time we met?” Rhett smiled.

Kristin thought hard and nodded. “At the Fitzgerald estate.”

Rhett hummed disapprovingly. “No, that wasn’t it.”

At that time, Kristin’s heart and eyes were solely for Vincent, so she hardly noticed anyone else, even someone as outstanding as Rhett.

“Your school.” Rhett had been invited back to participate in a forum and had seen Kristin rushing late.

Kristin blinked, not recalling that encounter at all.

“And your ballet solo performance,” Rhett added.

Kristin was surprise. Rhett had been there that day too?

“You have no recollection of me?” Rhett’s tone was tinged with jealousy.

Well… Kristin stammered. She truly had no memory of it.
