Chapter 167

Serenity walked into the office, after which Connor gently closed the door behind her.

He decided to bring Serenity here not just because of what she had told him, of course, but because he knew how much his own boss cared about this woman. Perhaps he only wanted her to coax him a little. Besides, Serenity looked very visibly troubled just now, so it might give Jackson a great chance to swoop in and save her.
