When the Boss’ Lady Became His Sister-in-law (Kristin and Garner) novel Chapter 214

 

Chapter 214 

Look, 1 know Kristin is just your PA, but if Mr. FitzGerald is willing, I’m prepared to triple her salary to hire her,Hanson said in a deep voice, his gaze lingering on Kristin. Name your price.” 

Rhett gave Hanson a onceover. Shame Mr. Lewis didn’t take a stab at Hollywood, you could’ve been quite the drama king with your everywhere presence.” 

Hanson took a deep breath, ignoring Rhett’s quip

In Hanson’s view, anything he desired was merely a matter of time before it fell into his lap, even with a formidable competitor like Rhett

Mr. FitzGerald should worry about himself for a change. I’m not the only one swamped with work lately.Hanson spoke nonchalantly, glancing at the clock. I’ll have Liam’s stuff sent over. Liam only drinks fresh milk flown in from New Zealand and eats the finest organic produce. His fruits have to be imported from the South.” 

Kristin couldn’t help but steal a glance at Rhett. Before she had come into his life, his butler was also particular about the ingredients

Ever since she arrived, Rhett seemed to grow less fussy

Rhett paid no mind to Hanson, though he suspected the man might be a bit under the weather

Liam has a weak heart, no emotional outbursts or strenuous activities,Hanson continued

Enough, you sound like you’ve ever taken care of a kid yourself.Rhett was tired of Hanson’s presence. Just go, you’re quite the busy 

man.” 

With a huff, Hanson checked the time again. Liam, call me if you need anything.” 

Liam nodded

Only then did Hanson leave, content

Once Hanson had gone, Rhett kicked the door shut, cursing the bad vibes he brought into the evening. He halfjoked about wanting to put up a sign at the neighborhood entrance: Beware of Dogs and the Lewises Not Allowed.” 

Kristin finally breathed a sigh of relief. The pressure Hanson brought was suffocating

In the past, she used to get tense and sweat buckets when around Rhett

But nowit seemed like she had grown to rely on him. Whenever Rhett was around, she felt she could let her guard down a bit

MummyLiam hid behind Kristin, scared of Rhett

Summer clung tightly to Rhett, worried Liam would vie for his daddy’s attention

Daddy’s mine,” Summer declared, staking his claim early

I’m not fighting with you for him,Liam retorted with a haughty snort

Rhett raised an eyebrow, smiling at Kristin. Let the kids get acquainted while we go take a nap.” 

Kristin was worried, concerned that Summer and Liam wouldn’t play well together

I want to sleep with Mummy,Liam insisted, not letting go of Kristin

Rhett was struck with panic, seeking rescue from his son

Catching the distress signal, Summer stuck his tongue out at Liam. “Such a baby, still needing to cry yourself to sleep with an adult. I’ve been sleeping on my own since I was two or three.” 

Liam pouted, hands on his hips. That’s not true, I want to sleep with Mummy.” 

My Mummy doesn’t like kids who aren’t independent, that’s why I always sleep alone.” Summer hopped down from Rhett’s arms. Come on, I’ll show you my room. Daddy designed it just for me.” 

Summer reached out his hand to Liam

Curiosity overcame him, and Liam followed Summer out of the room

My daddy’s room for me is way better.” 

That’s nothing, my daddy gave me all these teddy bears.” 

My daddy buys me limited editions, and I’ve got tons of toy cars.” 

The children were already competing over who had the better dad

Neither would back down

Rhett sighed in relief, pulling Kristin into his embrace with a grin. Now we won’t be disturbed.”

Chapter 214 

The next moming, Madge, who had been detained at the police station without ball, returned home fuming with no one there to greet her. She tried calling Garner, but he wouldn’t pick up. Sitting alone on the couch, she couldn’t wait any longer for Garner and decided to confront Kristin

As she stormed out the door, she was met by a black sedan waiting outside. The window rolled down to reveal Rhett inside

Where’s Kristin? Tell her to come and see me!Madge shouted in fury. I’m her mother!” 

Then prove it,Rhett said coolly, motioning for Madge to get in the car. Given your habit of lying, I need medical evidence of your relationship with Kristin. I’ll take you for a DNA test, and until the results are out, I won’t let you see her.” 

Madge’s face twisted in anger. You think you can just order me around? What are you to Kristin? You rich folks and your schemesl won’t go!” 

Rhett frowned and gestured for his bodyguard to step out of the car

The bodyguard approached and grabbed Madge. Please cooperate.” 

Madge shrieked in terror, crying for help. Help! Kidnapping! Someone help!” 

Rhett’s brow furrowed deeper as Madge’s resistance to the DNA test grew. Was she fearing something

I’m simply taking you for a DNA test; there’s no need to resist like this,Rhett stated firmly, stepping out of the car

Mr. FitzGerald, isn’t it a bit unseemly to bully an elder openly?James approached from the end of the alley

Rhett’s expression darkened. James, you seem to have too much free time on your hands.”
