Falling for My Ex-Husband's Enemy のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

Lewis stepped back slightly, his expression shifting as he spoke. “I’m not surprised if you didn’t recognize me, Lily, because I think you never paid attention to me.” His voice was slow and laced with disappointment, and for a moment, the weight of his words hung heavily in the air.Lily felt a pang of regret at his tone, but before she could respond, his demeanor changed abruptly. “Reports on my desk on time,” he commanded, his voice firm and authoritative once more. With that, he turned away from her, leaving her standing there, breathless and stunned.As he walked back to his seat, Lily felt an overwhelming rush of emotions. The moment had shifted from intimate to professional in an instant, leaving her feeling unsettled. She stood frozen for a heartbeat before finally gathering her composure and leaving the cabin without a word.As Lily stepped back into her office, her mind was still reeling from her encounter with Lewis. The way he had looked at her, the disappointment in his v

On the other side of the office, Lily was buried in a mountain of paperwork, her brow furrowed in concentration. She had been working tirelessly all day, fueled by a mix of determination and caffeine. The task assigned to her by her new boss, Lewis Evans, loomed large—an extensive set of account reports that needed to be completed by morning. With the office nearly deserted, the silence felt heavy, broken only by the faint sounds of the cleaning staff moving about in the background.The overhead lights were dim, casting a soft glow over the empty workspace, but Lily’s cabin remained illuminated, a small island of light in an otherwise darkened office. She squinted at the computer screen, her eyes tired but resolute. The clock ticked steadily, reminding her that time was slipping away. She needed to finish this report, not just for her own sake, but to prove herself a hard worker in front of her new boss, who looked familiar to her.Meanwhile, Lewis Evans was on a call with his mother

Lily's heart raced as she looked up to see Lewis standing in her doorway. His presence was commanding, and the moment felt charged, thick with unspoken words and unresolved feelings. The air crackled between them, a palpable tension that made her pulse quicken.As their eyes met, Lily felt a wave of familiarity wash over her, but she couldn’t place it. Lewis had changed so much; he was almost unrecognizable. The boy she once knew had transformed into a man of authority, exuding confidence and power. Yet, there was something in his gaze that stirred a distant memory, a flicker of warmth that tugged at her heart, though she couldn't quite grasp why.Lewis stood there for a moment, his expression a mix of determination and uncertainty. He didn’t want to remind her of their history; he wanted her to recognize him on her own terms. With a purposeful step, he entered her cubicle, the door clicking softly behind him.“Why are you still here?” he asked, his voice firm and devoid of emotion, h

After a while, Lewis walked toward Lily’s cabin, his heart heavy with concern. He found her standing near the window, her gaze lost in the world outside. The dim light of the office illuminated her figure, casting a soft glow around her.“It’s late, and it looks like it’s about to rain. Let me drop you home,” he said gently, trying to break the silence that hung between them. Without waiting for a response, he turned to grab his coat, hoping to give her a moment to gather herself.As he left the room, Lily quickly wiped her tears away, her heart racing. She grabbed her handbag, feeling the weight of the confrontation with Ethan still pressing down on her. She didn’t want to talk about it, didn’t want to relive the pain, but she also felt the need to explain herself.They met in the elevator, and the air was thick with unspoken words. Lily stared at the floor, avoiding Lewis’s gaze, while he watched her, concern etched on his face. The silence felt heavy, punctuated only by the soft hu

On the other hand, Lewis was not what Lily thought. As he angrily asked her to get out of the car, he felt a sharp pain in his chest when she walked away. It was as if a part of him had shattered with her departure. He watched her retreating figure, frustration and hurt swirling within him. After a moment of hesitation, he drove a few blocks, but the ache in his heart compelled him to turn back.When he returned to the spot where he had dropped her off, he was dismayed to find that she was already gone. Panic surged through him, and he quickly stepped out of the car, searching for any sign of her. His heart raced as he scanned the street, desperate to catch a glimpse of her.Then he spotted her a few blocks ahead, walking briskly, her head down, seemingly lost in her thoughts. Without her knowledge, he began to follow her, keeping a safe distance. He wanted to ensure she reached home safely, despite the turmoil brewing inside him. The rain continued to pour, soaking him to the bone, b
