Nearby, oor of the other bosses stood up to intervene.

"Ms. Zimmerman. I understand you have your issues with Mr. Johnson but these things are best handled privately.

You're jour a bunch of roten igen, Isabel sneered, glancing around the room with contempe before she turned and marched out the door If she hadn't been so drunk, she might have enjoyed boating both Kaleb and the man who had flirted with

Ahem. One of the bosses cleared his throat, glancing at the furning Kaleb. "Mr. Johnson, don't take it too hard. You're young and inexperienced. Women are like that. My wife's the sway. She often makes things hard forin public, and now Fm too embarrassed to even take her anywhere." Other bosses chimed in with their own observations.

"Yeah, my wife's even worse than Ms. Zimmerman."

Think Ms. Zimmerman's just tough on the outside but soft on the inside. She probably still cares about you, The more she loves you, the harder she hits you. She probably drank too much, which is why she got saggressive. You should go after her. She's beautiful, and if someone with bad intentions finds her, she could be in danger. Listening to this, Kaleb stopped caring about the slap.

"Sorry, everyone. Please excuse me. I'll be back shortly "Go ahead, no problem. If you don't cback, it's fine, they said, encouraging him.

The bosses were thinking, since Isabel had gotten drunk and Kaleb was going after her, the two would find themselves tangled up in the bedroom in no time.

"Exactly! It's okay if you don't cback. Women, you know, need to be controlled by a man's strength. Once you've got them under your thumb, they'll follow your lead without a word." "Haha-true wisdom, true wisdom! Mr. Johnson, maybe you should try it yourself," they laughed.

Kaleb felt a mix of temptation and discomfort at their comments, but his mind quickly shifted to Eva. He knew he couldn't cheat on Ger. If he e did, he'd be no better than the kind of man Isabel had called him-the one who took advantage of women. Regardless of everything, Isabel was clearly too drunk, and Kaleb's main concern was making sure she was okay. He had to check on her. "I'll be right back," he said.

Without wasting any time, he opened the door and hurried in the direction Isabel had gone.

After only a few steps, he spotted her, one hand resting on the wall, the other tugging at her shirt collar. Her voice sounded strained as she whispered, "It's so hot..."
