That does make sense. If she felt even an ounce of what I feel towards her, it could have overwhelmed her and caused her to leave and still sue us.

“Whatever is going on, you have to fix it,” Lex demands. “We would rather not go to court, but we will if we have to.”

Lex is right, I have to fix this.

“Can I get Taylor’s number? I will call her and try to meet up and see if we can resolve this.”

Lex agrees and writes down her number for me before dismissing the meeting.

Everyone leaves, but a hand on my shoulder stops me.

“TJ, can we talk for a moment?” Lex asks, and I nod. “I know what it’s like to have a mate. It is scary, but also marvelous. If Taylor really is the one, I suggest fighting for her.”

I’m not a hugely emotional guy, but tears prickle the corner of my eye.

There is nothing I want more than to fight for Taylor. Especially after last night.

“Okay, boss.”

Lex grunts before slapping me on the back. “Now get out of here and make things right.”

I head to my office and pull out my smartphone.

Taylor’s number glares at me from the screen. What will I say to her?

I type message after message but don’t send them, so I bite the bullet and call her.

She answers on the second ring.

“This is Taylor.”

My throat goes dry at her voice. It sounds like heaven.

“Hi.”

“Who is this?” she asks with an incredulous tone.

I clear my throat, “TJ. TJ Rubens.”

The phone clicks.

“Hello?”

I am met with silence for the second time today, and my heart burns. She hung up on me. I want to call back, but I am not sure my soul can handle another rejection.

My dragon weeps,Why did she hang up?

I don’t know, buddy. I really don’t know.

Determined to get her attention, I draft up a text, asking her to meet. I fear she will ignore me, but the only thing I can do is hope.

After the text is sent, I get to work.

I google everything I can about KobiTech, trying to prepare for the court case.

There has to be something I can find that can stop this case.

Druk Technologies committed no crime, and if we can’t prove our innocence, maybe we can prove KobiTech has an ulterior motive.
