Chapter 15: Asking for Forgiveness

Sabrina’s POV

The rush I felt after telling Atlas how I really feel and quitting on the spot was exhilarating. I had never felt so in control of my whole life than I did in that moment. The look on his face made me feel bad, but only for a second. In the moment, it felt like the right thing to do.

I went home that day and felt somewhat empty. Having been at the company for almost seven weeks , I had gotten into a routine. Sitting at home on a Tuesday afternoon was odd because I would normally be having lunch in the breakroom with my colleagues or Atlas would order in takeaway for us to talk about work. Having to eat a frozen meal alone instead of a fresh meal with a handsome man stings.

That night, I couldn’t sleep because I couldn’t get Ashton out of my mind. I kept asking the same four questions.

Where is he? I wonder if he is okay and doing well. Does he miss me? Has he managed to make his dreams come true?
