Chapter 97

• Lily hurried into her car and drove toward Lewis's office, a place where she had once worked with Mia. She drove desperately, wanting to meet Lewis as soon as possible. The urgency to talk to him, to explain things to him about her past with Ethan, and to clear the air between them filled her mind. She navigated through traffic with a sense of determination, hoping to reach Lewis's office quickly.
• As she drove, thoughts of Lewis's hurt and his ignoring her at the funeral played in her mind. She wanted to make things right between them, to tell him how she felt.
• Lily parked her car in the bustling lot of Veritas Innovations, her heart racing with a mix of excitement and anxiety. This was the place where she had once worked alongside Lewis, a place filled with memories—both good and painful. As she stepped out of the car, the cool air hit her face, invigorating her resolve. She couldn’t turn back now; she had to face him.
