Chapter 71 : What Is Her Endgame?

Jaxon

I had no more energy. I had no more motivation to do anything. I listened to James continuing to talk about different options but I felt worn. I could no longer imagine reversing all that I had done to Sara. All I wanted was to keep her safe and love her.

“We have to do more about these threats, Jaxon. You’re not taking enough of a stance on this.”

“I have an investigator looking into her. I have all my contacts out for those who sent the threat. I have her under protection. I have lawyers and doctors. What else can I do?” I could hear the defeat in my voice, and James’s expression told me he did too. We’d been friends for a long time, and he knew me too well. I sighed and rolled my eyes.

“Something is clearly amiss here, Jaxon. So letting go now and giving up isn’t helping anyone.”

I wanted to object. I wanted to argue with him, but I couldn’t find the words. I knew he was right, and I knew that’s what I was doing. Before I had to answer, the phone rang beside me.
