Surprise!!!!!!🥳
It was a double update!!!!!!

Gotcha!😉😂

Atlas's POV
It has been a week, a long torturous week since I left the house, since I left Gold. I miss her constant bickering, her adorable clueless face when I spoke in Italian, her cute smiles, her cheeks when they blushed, aaaghhhhh I think I'm gonna go crazy. This woman drives me crazy.

Confused as to how or why I left? well Aunt Liza called me the very next day we pranked Leo, saying that my dad is in town and that he had visited her looking for me, obviously she didn't tell him about me staying at Gold's place but I couldn't risk him barging in there and I definitely didn't want him to meet her. So I found a perfect time, in the afternoon when she was on call, packed up and left. Yes I know it was a cruel and cowardly move but I couldn't see her sad face. 

I just couldn't.

I asked Aunt Liza to inform her about my sudden departure leaving out the reason. That's when I got to know that it was her who set us up, there were no repairings that had to be done. she repeatedly apologised for doing that, saying it was for my own good and that she was worried for me. I normally would've exploded in rage after finding that out, I hate liars, but for some reason I' m glad she did that.

Just when I think she couldn't get any better, she amazes me with something even more breathtaking and astounding. She worked at a fucking grocery store even though she had thousands of dollars in her bank account. I don't know anything about the history between her and her grandmother but her determination and pride is extraordinary. How she helped Noah is a topic for another day. She let a total stranger, like me, share a house with her. Why? so that she could monitor my health, there was nothing in it for her and she still agreed to do it. She put up with all my irritating habits, tried to make a better person, managed to break into my space, claiming a room reserved only for her, all in just 21 days.

Not only is she Gold from the outside, she is Gold inside out too.

So here I am, irritated as fuck, brainstorming on how I could contact her again. I just want to see her once, just a glance or a peek, thats it. I couldn't go back to her house, she'll definitely throw a fit and throw me out because of the stunt I pulled, I have to think of a way to see her without her getting angry. My mind worked out a brilliant way when Mr Smith from the financial department knocked and entered.

Perfect!

I quickly signed the documents and he was about to leave when I stopped him.

"Mr Smith, tell me, do I stress you out?"

"S-Sir?" his face went pale and I could notice him slightly shaking. Well, I don't really talk to my employees unless it's work related so it must be a shocker for him to hear me say that but I think his reaction is little too extreme.

Am I that scary?
Who am I kidding, of course I am.

"Go on, answer me. I won't fire you if thats what you're worried about"

" You set deadlines that make it impossible for us to c-complete a-and your t-tone kinda scares us."

I took a deep breath in, trying to compose myself. "Does it stress you out or not? Can't you even answer one question properly" I could notice my voice getting louder.

Oh, so this is what he's talking about. well, I don't care.
I looked at him for an answer and he nodded rapidly in response. 

That made me quite happy. I dismissed him with a flick of my finger and he undoubtedly ran off. 

I then ordered my assistant to make a few calls and arrange stuff but it really  pissed me off when she told me that the hospital doesn't do stuff like that and that we had to visit there.

I guess they don't know who I am, yet. 

I always get what I want.

So with Atlas melting and Veronica erupting like a volcano of steaming lava, don't you think of it as a role reversal?

Anyways, stay tuned for the mysteries that are going to unfold in the upcoming chapters.

Have a great day/night ✨
