Chapter 114

• Inside the car, the soft hum of the engine filled the air as Lewis drove, one hand confidently on the wheel while the other held Lily’s hand. He gently rubbed the back of her hand with his thumb, sending warmth and comfort through her.
• Lily glanced over at him, a smile spreading across her face. In that moment, she felt truly cherished—something she had always dreamed of but never experienced with Ethan. The contrast was stark; Ethan had never shown her such affection or thoughtfulness.
• As they drove through the twinkling city lights, Lily's heart swelled with gratitude. She was so glad she had given Lewis a chance. This was the love she had always longed for, and it felt like a beautiful new beginning.
