Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted

Chapter 8

he was going to bore a hole through her. Bella felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand. However, Keegan merely reminded her, “Your manager’s here.” Bella snapped back to reality. She looked out the window and saw her manager waving at her. She frowned. She initially wanted Keegan to send her home.
