CHAPTER 2
John (The Lawyer)
If I could offer a suggestion, Mr. Markovic? ...
Dragan Markovic (ML)
Go ahead ...
John (The Lawyer)
I know you don't like getting involved in these matters ...
John (The Lawyer)
But if you could meet with Miss Randall face-to-face, maybe even offer her an apology on behalf of the company, she might be willing to- ...
Dragan Markovic (ML)
That's out of the question ....
Dragan Markovic (ML)
( swung back to face him )
Dragan Markovic (ML)
I don't have time and I don't owe the woman a personal apology ...
Dragan Markovic (ML)
When's the court date? ...
John (The Lawyer)
A week from today. Since Miss Randall worked out of our Alaska office, the civil trial's being held in Anchorage ...
John (The Lawyer)
There's still time for you to- ....
Dragan Markovic (ML)
I said no. Just handle it ....
Dragan Markovic (ML)
That's what you and your associates are paid for. If you can't do your jobs , Then ....
Dragan let the implied threat hang on the air ...
Dragan Markovic (ML)
That will be all for now ...
John (The Lawyer)
Yes, Mr. Markovic. We'll do our best ...
John (The Lawyer)
( Clutching his paperwork and backed out of the office )
As the door clicked shut .... Dragan turned toward the window again ...
Dragan Markovic (ML)
( Muttering a few curses in his native Croatian )
Dragan Markovic (ML)
( he gazed into the gathering fog )
For two cents he had fire the whole hot-shot legal team and hire one seasoned attorney who knew how to work the system ....
The melancholy wail of a foghorn echoed through the glass ....
Reminding himself that he was wasting time, Dragan returned to his desk ....
Switched on his computer and brought up Tessa Randall's archived personnel file ...
He hadn't bothered to read it earlier ...
But now that his legal team seemed to be stalled, maybe it was time he took a look ...
Her photo showed a tousled redhead, surprisingly pretty, with challenging blue eyes ...
Dragan Markovic (ML)
" Even on paper, the woman looked damn sexy ... "
Her marital status was listed as single ...
With no indication of a marriage or divorce in her six years with the company ...
Since she'd become pregnant, there had to be a story behind that-a story that wasn't mentioned in her file ...
What the file did contain was a stack of an excellent performance reviews ...
Not only did Miss Randall speak fluent Japanese, but she was highly valued as a contract negotiator ...
With so much Trans Pacific cargo (chiefly lumber, steel, and other building supplies) going to Japan, she wouldn't have been an easy employee to replace ...
