Breaking Mr. Cold (Giselle and Donovan) novel Chapter 743

"It's alright. I'll stand." Chris still knew his place and merely stood off to the side like before.

Donovan gave a cold snort. "I already fired you. We're not in an employment relationship now. We're equals now. If I tell you to sit, you sit."

Chris paused, then sat on the nearby couch.

Seeing him sitting bolt upright—silent and obedient—Donovan couldn't help wondering if he'd really wronged him last time. But he didn't want to waste time building up to anything.

He opened a drawer, took out several printed photos he'd prepared long ago, and tossed them in front of Chris. "I called you here today to talk about this woman."

The instant Chris saw the photos, his expression stiffened. His usually steady heartbeat abruptly sped up.

The woman in the photos was none other than Anne.

Fortunately, Donovan had turned to look out the window and didn't notice the unnatural tension on Chris' face, though cold sweat had already broken across his skin.

"You should know who this woman is, right?" Donovan said, still looking outside.

Chris drew a deep breath and replied with feigned calm, "I don't know her. You said before that she's dangerous and mustn't be allowed near Mrs. Kane. That's all I know."

Donovan stared out the window for a long time without speaking. No one knew what he was thinking.

While waiting, Chris' heart pounded with dread. He didn't know why Donovan had suddenly brought up Anne. Could he already know the truth?

At last, Donovan turned back. "This woman is the biggest threat at the moment."

He then briefly outlined the series of grudges and entanglements between him and Anne. He mentioned her current backing and finally stated his intention.
