Chapter 393

"Katherine, stay with me… please."

Kate's body visibly stiffened as she heard that sentence coming out of his mouth. She turned around to face her boss and saw James staring at her with such a deep gaze.

"Katherine… please…" James pleaded. He knew it wasn't proper to say this to a married woman. But even he couldn't hold his feelings. 

"But, Sir—"

"Call me James."

Kate swallowed nervously. She felt the atmosphere around them was a bit wrong, and she would be an idiot if she didn't notice how much love was pouring from James.

But she didn't want to think about it. She wanted to keep that ambiguous atmosphere around them at most. She didn't want to delve further into the rabbit hole and ruin her marriage.

It wasn't a good marriage, but she was still married and vowed to be with her husband through thick and thin.
