Katie
My stomach grumbles slightly as I make my way to the kitchen to find myself something to eat, but my feet suddenly stop, and I freeze in my spot when I hear Mark’s mother talking. My husband’s office door is slightly ajar.
“Are you sure it is because Mark married Katie? There can be a lot of reasons why someone would refuse to sign a contract with our company. I know we were really hoping this would go through, but we can’t hold anything against Mark for this. The potential client is crazy, just like Tiffany.”
A mix of emotions races through me.
Did Mark lose the contract? And because of me?
He was looking forward to this. I might not know much about business, but I know Mark was hoping this contract would go through.
My heart twists. Am I the reason Mark didn’t get the contract?
“I know what he said. You told me, but I won’t believe he refused to sign the contract because Mark is married to Katie. There is no way I will believe it.”
