Chapter 22 Become My Wife

• There is silence between us in Ralph's office for at least a minute.
• I don't quite know how to begin to apologize for what happened two days ago after the presentation to our new clients and my absence without contacting him. Ralph truly loves me, but he knew I had a mate, I had told him beforehand, so it's no surprise to him.
• "Where were you, Rain?" Ralph's voice breaks the silence between us. He stands with his back to me, looking out over the city through the glass wall. His shoulders are tensed, a vein in his neck twitching out of stress. "We're in a relationship, but you leave with an unknown man, remain unreachable for two days and don't even bother to call me," he states briefly, the disappointment clearly heard in his voice.
