OLIVIA'S POV
Today, I had consciously chosen not to call Julian to drive me, even though it was technically his job to drive me wherever I wanted to go. Instead, I decided to drive my car by myself without my bodyguard as well. John had no idea I was leaving because I literally snuck out of my own house like a sixteen year old teenager just to evade him.
Sliding into the plush leather driver's seat, I pressed the ignition button, and the engine roared to life. Surprisingly, the usually inviting leather interior somehow felt cold and uninviting today, almost mirroring the distance I was putting between Julian and me. I had chosen solitude, leaving the men behind to feel the independence of driving alone again.
My destination happened to be the hospital, where I was planning to visit Mich
