Dacre’s pov

A little quiver passed through her body as I knew she was cold. I took off my coat and handed it to her and watched her put it around her thin body.

“You blinked and for a second I thought you were going to freeze there.”

“You’ll get cold,” Grace said as she was worried about me but I shook my head.

“I’m fine. You shouldn’t worry about me. You’re the cold one here.”

“Thanks.” She held onto it as we looked into the night in silence with the only sound we could hear the clacking on computers courtesy of Dante.

It was always like this now—people walking on eggshells around me. Like I was some wild thing that might lash out without warning. I got it. I wasn’t exactly known for my charm. But it still gnawed at me sometimes. The looks. The whispers. The way no one ever really asked if I was okay as they knew I was the great Dacre and I didn’t want anything.

“Sorry for speaking out of turn sir but I don’t know you would do something like that for me.”

“Like what?”

    Katherine’s povWe were in the lot now when multiple board members who had not said anything to me from inside the board room stood before me.I knew what they wanted to do. They were here to hound me. But I was ready for them.“Miss,” one of the men said, “We were not expecting this… surprise… yesterday.”I eased and turned to look at them, John stepping silently to stand by my side. “Surprised or not. Here I am.”The woman by his side from took off and cleaned her glasses before settling them back on her nose, making her manner sharper in more than one way. “We have questions,” she began. “About your business ideas. About how we can be certain you will do no longterm harm with a company this size when you’ve never managed anything larger than a kitchen your entire life. What makes you think you can run a company? You think just because you’re some rich girl you can buy a company and live on? I mean look at you, you don’t even look old enough to handle this. You’re pregnant. You’re j

    Chapter 151Katherine’s povI woke up that morning feeling energized as I did my morning routine and stared into the mirror with a motivational thought. I was going to go through my day with nothing but a happy thought and a smile on my face.Who was I kidding? I was sad by how my life was going. Sure I had the money but I had no one by my side.I started to think, would it have been better if I had stayed back at the Manson with Grace?I shook my head and left the house as I got into my new car and drove to John’s office.***The moment I entered John’s office; he got up to greet me. “Katherine,” he said, “I wanted to… I guess. Say sorry. About yesterday. I shouldn’t have been a dick to you and that was unfair.”I didnt know what to say to him. And so I just… smiled."It’s okay, John,” I murmured, waving away the apology. “We were both on edge. It’s been… a lot.”He bobbed his head. “Regardless. I should’ve known better.” Drawing a breath and shifting back, he gestured toward the de

    Katherine’s povI smiled and looked at Marlin who was still struggling to find any problem with the car.Then I turned to look back at the man.“I’ll buy it,” I told him.The salesman’s grin widened. “Excellent choice.”It took forever to sign all the paperwork. Marlin kept muttering sarcastic comments just loud enough for me to hear, like, “Look at you, boss lady,” and “Can I borrow it when you’re too rich to care?” But under the jokes, I could tell she really was proud. And maybe even more excited than I was.When it was done, when the keys were finally in my hand, I stood outside the dealership staring at the car. My car.Marlin nudged me. “So, how does it feel?”I shrugged. “I don’t know if I’m being honest. It feels weird. This is my first car I’m buying so there’s that.”She laughed quietly. “That’s because you have,” she said. “Anyway, what did you expect?”“I don’t know.”She linked her arm through mine and tugged me toward the car. “Come on, let’s go to the car and drive outt

    Katherine’s povHe nodded. “I get you.”“Thanks for lunch. Really. But I need to go.”He stood too, quick, almost panicked. “Katherine, wait. Let me take you home.”I didn’t know what to say but I nodded as he paid and we both got out and into his car.It didn’t take long before I got home and entered the house with nothing but a goodbye to him.I needed to keep my distance away from him. I needed my space.When I got in the house, I dumped my bag on the couch and fell into it like I’d gone through a battle. My mind was racing, not really bad or anything, just… fast. I was trying to clear my head when a knock came on my door as I forced myself up with cuss words falling out of my mouth and opened it up. My neighbor—Marlin, her hair puffed out in little curls looking big as always from no sleep—was there with a cup in her hand.“So,” she said, entering the room before I’d fully invited her. “How did court go?”I blinked at her. “What do you mean?”Her brows lifted as she nearly spille

    Katherine’s povI got out of the elevator and I looked at the man before me.“Well,” he said, his voice sugary sweet. “Did you come here to beg, Katherine?”I didn’t waver. I turned a little to John, who was standing steady by my side in his neat grey suit, his tie sharp, his glasses gleaming with the lights in the lobby.“This is my lawyer,” I replied flatly.John glanced at the interviewer and managed a curt nod. “Good morning.”“Your lawyer?” He panicked as he wondered what I was here for. “What for? You finally realize you can’t play the game alone?”“Look, im not here for you or anything. I’m only here to make sure my deals go well.”His brows shot up. “Deals? What deals? You don’t even have a job here and you’re here talking about deals.”John stepped forward. “My client, Miss Katherine, is finalizing the acquisition of this company. We’ve already had some preliminary conversations. We’re here to meet with the board. We have done so and it has ended so now we are going home.”Th
