The CEO's Lethal Obsession (ENGLISH VERSION) のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 111 - チャプター 120

LILY'S POV"What announcement is that, Wade?" I asked him again."You'll be officially my fiancée. I'll announce it to the entire company at the next event. I want everyone to know who you are to me — so no one ever dares to hurt or disrespect you again. There will be no other woman beside you... only you and only you Lily. So please, believe and trust me. There will be no Cecilia – I promise that. So promise me also that you will take care while I'm not beside you."My eyes widened. "Wade... you don't need to do that.""I want to," he answered. "This isn't about formality. It's about respect. You've earned your place beside me and I intend to make sure the world knows that."Wade affectionately kissed my forehead, "And when I told you, I love you. Believe that."I couldn't answer. I felt my heartbeat quicken. He held my hand and caressed it slowly."You've been strong, Lily. And from now on, no one, not even the past, gets to break you again. I promise that. I will do everything to k

LILY'S POVA few hours passed, it seemed everything was normal again. It's funny to think, almost everyone now is kind to me. Someone hands coffee, someone hands report and there are smiles even with no reason. But of course, not all.While finishing a report, I heard from the other cubicle Nina's voice."Oh, that's why she still got in even though she was absent for several days. So fast huh... maybe has a strong connection."Someone laughed."Maybe she used charm. Different really when beautiful, right?"I felt sudden heat in my cheeks but I chose not to turn. I just took the ballpen and continued writing. I won't engage them. I'll be wasting my time and energy if I do.I breathed deeply, then calmly spoke."Excuse me, Nina." I didn't turn. "If you're done with your break, you might want to work again."She became quiet. I felt she was embarrassed even though I wasn't looking at her."Of course," she answered, obviously forced to smile, before she turned around.Time passed quickly.

Wade's POVI'm staring at the screen of my cell phone while looking at the last message I received from Lily. I'll stay for two more hours. I just need to finish some files. I smiled slightly while spinning my cell phone on my finger. That simple text, if other people maybe it's worthless. But for me — different kind.I know she's trying hard to fit in, trying to prove something. And I like that about her. She doesn't just depend. She moves with quiet determination."Lily," I whispered softly, shaking head. "You're really something else."I sat on the swivel chair. I'm looking now at city lights outside the glass wall of the office. Quiet. Night already. Most employees, went home already. Almost only I remained on executive floor.After a while, the door opened. I don't need to look to know who."Wayne," I said while still not removing my gaze outside."Master Wade," he answered calmly. He slowly approached. Holding a brown envelope. "There's something I want to show."I turned. "This

LILY'S POVInstead of going home to our unit with Alena, I decided to stay first in the presidential suite where I stayed. I don't know what I will do when I'm alone in the unit and Alena is not yet there. In truth, it feels dangerous to be left with my own thoughts. There are guards outside — Wade's men, of course — supposedly for my security. But the truth, they are preventing me from completely going crazy from the weight of everything.The whole room is quiet. The only thing you will hear is the faint hum of the aircon and the soft tick-tock of the wall clock beside the bed. It seems like something is caressing inside me, but I don't know if that's fear or anger. That kind where two emotions fight, and both want to win.I have so many things I want to ask Wade. So many I want to shout. But I know it's not yet time. You can't be impulsive, Lily. Focus. This is your plan. I need to take revenge. I need to make sure that how painful what I and Mama experienced, even more than that Wa

LILY'S POVI was busy stirring the sauce while Wade was sitting on the counter, watching me like there's a movie he doesn't want to let go. The sleeves of his polo are folded up to elbow, holding a glass of water."Impressive," he said while following every movement of mine with his gaze. "You actually look good while cooking."I glanced for a moment, returned with a smile. "Really? Or are you just flattering me?""What? When did I fool you?" he answered while grinning. "You know me, Lily. I don't like lies – as much as I hate liars, I really hate lying too. And whatever I said today is only truth. Why would I lie to you, sweetie?"I shook my head. "Wade, seriously—"Suddenly, his cell phone rang in his pocket. He quickly glanced at the screen, and his expression slightly changed."Excuse me for a moment," he said, while standing up. "It's Wayne."I nodded, pretending no interest. "Go ahead."I watched him go out to the veranda, holding the phone. It seems like he's always in a board
