When the Boss’ Lady Became His Sister-in-law (Kristin and Garner) novel Chapter 36

Chapter 36 

At the FitzGerald Group

Mr. FitzGerald, here’s the information I dug up on Kristin, the whole nine yards. Take a gander, it’s a hot messYork handed over the investigation files to Rhett

Rhett took a glance Kristin’s life seemed to have been a game of two halves. First, as Ms. Turner, she was in the spotlight, not just acing her studies and being a natural talent, but also racking up awards and honors like nobody’s business. She even nailed it as the top one in SAT in the city and got into Silvergrove University with flying colors

Her love life was smooth sailing too. Kristin started dating Vincent in high school, and they were the perfect couple, with both families giving them the thumbs up

But at her peak, her life took a nosedive. No, it wasn’t just a nosedive, but a plunge straight 

into hell

When the real heiress of the Turner family came back, Kristin, the fake, turned into a public enemy, falling from grace and into the abyss

First, the Turner family gave Kristin the boot, then came the scandals that trashed her reputation, followed by the FitzGerald family breaking off the engagement, leaving her to be loathed by everyone

Next, Kristin was pregnant, her reputation in tatters. Under all that pressure, she insisted on having the kid

As soon as the baby was born, she was dragged to court by Clarence and Vincent

In court, Kristin didn’t utter a word in her defense. No matter what the opposing lawyer threw at her, she copped to it

That’s just it. That’s why I’m telling you to steer clear of this hot potato. Think about it, would someone like Kristin resort to blackmail? Obviously, she’s taken the fall for someone. Why else would she keep silent about the kid’s dad this whole time? I bet he’s the mastermind behind the whole extortion scheme.York whispered

Ease up on the detective novels,Rhett tossed the file aside. Keep digging. Is there anything you can’t find?”

Rhett nodded, standing up to head to the meeting room, but then turned back to ask, How old’s the kid? What’s his name?” 

He’s five, goes by Summerreplied the secretary 

Rhett arched an eyebrow. It was Kristin’s kid

Tell security to watch the kid, I’ll be right down.”
