Chapter 63 His Imperfections

• The silence in the penthouse is deafening when I arrive. I turn on the lights to make the room feel more alive. I haven’t heard from Julian since the morning, and he still didn’t respond to my texts or phone calls.
• I rush to the fridge for food because I’m starving. It’s a miracle that I’m hungry after an entire day of not eating.
• I grab some bread from the counter, spread it with peanut butter, and pour myself a glass of orange juice. With one bite and a gulp, relief washes over me.
