Chapter 7

The entire time Gia was in the meeting in Dallas all she could think about was getting back to Houston. She missed Gunny, Wes, and Garrett. It was crazy, but she truly did and she was finally feeling happy about it and accepting trying out a relationship with them.

She sat at dinner, following the long hours of business meetings. Because the boss of the company adored her so much that he wanted his wife to meet her, she had to stay the entire time. Meanwhile, Jeffrey continued to try to flirt with her and currently was making a complete ass out of himself.

He sat next to her and Robert and tried to touch her arm. She kept pulling it away and she noticed that her boss was aware as well as the owner of the company, their client, Mr. Bradshaw, and his wife, Lucille.

“I would quit trying to flirt with Gia, Jeffrey. She’s dating a Texas Ranger,” Robert said and Jeffrey looked absolutely annoyed.

“A Texas Ranger, huh. How interesting,” Lucille added as she smiled wide.

Gia felt her cheeks warm.

“He’s a big guy, too. What is he, like six feet four?” Robert asked.

“Something like that. He’s wonderful,” she found herself saying as she smiled then ran her finger along the rim of the wineglass. She was lost in thought about him and his brothers.

“Oh, it’s serious then,” Lucille said and Gia smiled then nodded her head. Lucille began to tell Gia about meeting her husband and about being married for nearly thirty-five years.

After dessert and finally Robert’s indication that they were all tired and needed to get ready for tomorrow’s meeting then flights home, she stood up and said good-bye. They exchanged pleasantries and Jeffrey stormed off. The Bradshaws left and she felt kind of uncomfortable about the situation.

“Robert, I wasn’t going to say anything, but I feel it’s necessary. I don’t like or appreciate the way that Jeffrey is acting toward me. He’s been trying to get me to go out with him and I’ve refused. He sent me a note and a rose before we left and then visited me and I told him I wasn’t interested. He saw me with my boyfriend. I’ve heard some things,” she began to say as she lowered her eyes and thought about how she’d indicated that Gunny was her boyfriend. She hoped that he wouldn’t mind. After all, she actually would have three if this relationship worked out. Robert touched her hand.

“I’m sorry, Gia. I’ve been made aware of the latest incident with one of the female employees at work. I’ve also had an investigator contact me, just yesterday before we left. I think the board has been covering things up for Jeffrey because his father used to own a fair amount of stocks. He no longer does and that kind of loyalty shouldn’t be given to a man with his sort of behavior. I’m going to have to fire him. This company is too important to me. I have great employees and a lot of women working in the company as well.
