I walk around the marble countertop and lean. “Catch me up here. Why are they meeting a psycho? Is this a date?”
“Date? No. Fucking hell. It’s one of Molly’s exes. She’s confronting him for some personal growth thing.”
I drop my glass down so hard it nearly breaks.
“And you let her just go?! And didn’t tell me. Jesus.”
Now he’s paying attention.
“You still into her?”
Yes I’m still fucking into her, but this is no time to chat about girls.
“Where are they?” I demand. If this is the guy that hurt her, there is no way I’m letting her do this without being there.
Jesus, he could reverse everything I’ve worked hard to achieve.
“Atlas—”
“Where are they, Knox?” I ground out.
“I thought you just fucked her at my wedding?” he asked, confused. “Do you really like her?”
I said I did. Was he not listening?
To be fair he’d been drunk and it was a huge day for the happy couple, so I let it go as I rake a hand through my hair, glaring at him.
“Christ. Are you in love with her?”
“Yes. Now are we taking my car or yours?” I pocket my phone and grab my keys.
“Mine. You’re losing your mind. And I’ll have you know I probablywillbe divorced after this because I was told to stay home and not tell anyone. Now I realize that meantyou.”
I snort.
“Whatever.” I punch the elevator button.
We step in and then just as the doors begin to close, I yellwait, and race back inside to grab something.
I’m going to get my girl.

So my plan didn’t work quite the way I expected. Apparently, this year Steve’s company allowed them to bring their spouses to the Christmas party.
How ironic.
I figure that’s why Steve never replied to my message. Or his phone number has changed. Either way, Payton and I thought we’d show up at the party and see if we could corner him.
That was before we knew his wife would be here.
The moment I saw them together I felt like vomiting.
“You got this,” Payton says rubbing my shoulder. “What do you want to do?”
