Kelly’s POV

“Elle!”

I was taken aback upon hearing that worried voice. When I lifted my face, my boss, Caleb Walter, was standing a few meters away from me, looking so worried. He’s wearing his usual business attire and black rimmed eyeglasses.

Why is he here?

He rushed to me and stood in front of me. He examined my face with a visibly worried expression. “Are you okay? Are you hurt?”

I looked back and glanced at Pierce, who’s standing behind me, watching us.

I sucked my breath and faced Mr. Walter again. “Sir, why are you here?”

He sighed and clenched his jaws. “It’s natural for an employer to worry about his promising employee.”

Klay’s face was spread by the police as a wanted criminal and since he’s my stepbrother, my name was dragged with him. In Addition to the fact that Amanda is still in prison for the murder of my father, the only way to clear my name is to tell the truth to the public.The door swung open, and my daughter, wearing a pink dress and bunny hairband, entered. Behind her was Emily, chewing a gum.“You know you should get yourself a car. I’m not your driver.”I faced her and smiled. “Thanks, Emily.”She rolled her eyes and looked at my daughter. “Love, your mommy has a meeting today, so you’re coming with me.

I even heard Yara sobbing.“Kelly!”“Kelly, I resigned from my work because of you. Please hire me!” Ana was begging and I chuckled at her.Yara lifted her arm and smiled. “I’m more experienced than her, Kelly.

I stood on my feet and fixed my blouse.I was about to send him to the door when he lifted his arm, stopping me. He fixed his eyeglasses and smiled. “Think about my offer Miss Monroe.”I don’t know what to say. I just watched him as he left before I sat on the couch again and looked at Pierce. The latter was watching Mr. Walter too and when he looked at me again, he immediately found my eyes.“He’s…your boss, right?”I nodded. “Yes. Uh… What brought you here?”He cleared his throat and put the box of dessert on the coffee table. “I just want to check on you…and I heard about you taking over your father’s company.”I nodded. Somehow, I found myself getting comfortable. “Yes.”He pressed his lips together and stared into my eyes. I want to look away because I feel like I was being drowned by his stares but I couldn’t look away. His eyes were as if sucking me in. I couldn’t take my eyes off of him.H

I was disappointed when I thought he’s married. Stupid, Kelly!Pierce glanced at me worriedly but I didn’t look at him. I kept my eyes away from him because I feel like he saw my reaction a while ago. I just indirectly rejected his love but here am I, acting like a stupid girl.Emily laughed again and that’s when Mary stepped out of the kitchen. She was showing how shocked she was while looking at us, particularly at Pierce. She must’ve recognized him as a CEO of a well-known successful company.Pierce ignored Emily and walked slowly towards Snow. My daughter was just staring at his face as if memorizing him.
