Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE! novel Chapter 181

LEO...

I woke up in the late afternoon. Couldn't sleep the entire night thinking about the ridiculous shit I did in the club. I fucking kissed her!

Her soft lips felt like cotton candy, and her soft berry scent was delicious... Since the day I met her, I wanted to kiss her and finally, I did, but... Now I want more even though it happened at a crucial moment, I couldn't stop thinking the feeling of her! That woman was insanely climbing all over my thoughts!

After that kissing incident, I kept myself shut to not do something more crazy. Though I don't know how long I could maintain this peace. Every time I think of her, my imagination runs wild and the effect is clear under my trousers! Sigh...

Sitting on the bed, I looked around. Lily was nowhere to be seen. Wait... Where is she? It's Sunday today and she's still out for work? Such a pathetic life of a reporter! That woman really does not care about her safety, does she? What if she faces sort of the same troubles? I'm not beside her, then...

I shook my head vigorously. Shut up, Leo! Why think negatively? Though she's clumsy, she's a reporter. She knows how to avoid such situations.

Wait... What if she found another man for... Ugh! What am I even thinking!? That woman did nothing good to me!

It's good she's not home now, otherwise it would be too awkward for me!

I got out of the bed and freshened up. I went to the kitchen counter and found a covered plate.

She made me breakfast before leaving. It's not a time for breakfast, still I ate it. She has a very poor cooking skill. Maybe, I would do it next time.

Finishing the plate, I cleaned the entire apartment. Just when I sat on the sofa, my eyes fell on her laptop. I blinked. She went to work but did not take her laptop. Did she even take her phone?

I searched the entire apartment again and finally sat back with a sigh of relief. At least she didn't forget her phone this time.

There was nothing to do for me, so I did what was morally wrong. I opened her laptop. Last night, I left my curiosity to read her personal diary and opened the page unhesitatingly. I could imagine her face if she realised I had gone through her personal stuff, But I couldn't hold my curiosity to learn more about Lily.

She is foolish, yet... Interesting.

Crawling to the end of the page, I stopped where she was dubious, about whether to meet 'him' or not. This man, who could it be?

My curiosity was at its peak as I started reading...

'I am so happy today. I will confess my heart to him. He will understand, right? I hope so...'

I blinked at the screen. Confession? However, there were no more words on that page and I flipped to the next. Time skipped here and it showed 10th October... Five days after her birthday.

I continue reading,

'Family... That's all I have dreamt of while growing up. And he was the only person I had imagined in my Family. Me, grandma and him... With our little minions. But... Everything shattered. My dream was destroyed in a second.'

'He left. He didn't give me a chance to confess but left with her. He didn't even bother to turn once. He wasn't like this, was he? The despise I had seen in his eyes, told differently. It wasn't there before.'

He was the only person I opened my heart to, and he just stepped onto it, not bothering how it hurt me. Was he the same man who scolded a doctor when I frowned while treating my wound? Or, bought me sneakers with my prom dress because I am uncomfortable in heels. Was I too delusional to not notice? Or, he acted so well?'

'Theo... The name I engraved in my heart had wounded me so deeply. I don't know how to erase his name now. It hurts a lot, to see coldness in his eyes and walking beside her. Can I ever walk out of this pain? I don't know...'

Blinking, I flipped to the other page, but there was nothing. She didn't write anymore! I frowned, reading the 3rd page again and again.

Theo... So, that's his name. By the date, it's been long years and she still has feelings for him? Is she stupid or what? Why bother about the man who doesn't want!?

I felt angry unnecessarily. Not sure why her feelings bothering me! Closing the file, I turned off the laptop in frustration... Wait, did our kiss last night mean something to her? Ugh! What am I even thinking!? It was just a show!

But, still... Did it not...

'Knock ~ knock'... Someone knocked on the door, breaking my thoughts. Frowning, I went to open the door.
