Chapter 2

At this moment, I was indeed in a sorry state. Ever since my cancer relapsed three months ago, I had become skin and bones.

I glanced at Lily, who looked innocent and adorable. With a round face and big eyes, she looked a lot like me in college. Compared to her, not only was I unattractive, but I also appeared lifeless. But what could I do? I was probably going to die soon. A staff member reminded her quietly, "Mr. Harmon loves his wife the most. You better not look for trouble, or you'll regret it."

Everyone thought that Leonard loved me so much, but nobody knew how much he wanted me dead.

Pursing her lips, Lily quickly put on a smile. "Eva, Mr. Harmon is having an important online meeting now. He won't see any unimportant people. If you need anything, I can go in and report it to him for you." She was practically saying that she could enter Leonard's office freely. She was just showing off.

If I ignored her scheming eyes, she actually looked really pretty with a smile on. Besides, that smile made her look a lot like me in the past. It was no wonder that Leonard treated her differently from everyone else. Previously, he would only keep his mistresses or personal assistants around to play with for a few days at most. He was just testing my reactions mostly.

At first, I would resist and argue with him. But then, I realized he would act more brazenly the more I did that, so I just pretended to see nothing.

After that, I could even calmly close the door for him when he brought women home and did it right in front of me. But he never brought Lily back home. I had never met her before today. Nevertheless, I often saw colleagues gossiping over text about how they went to movies together, had candlelit dinners, and wore matching outfits.

That was when I knew he had fallen in love. He was not just playing around. I had experienced all of this when I was in school too.

I merely sat down in a chair and gazed at Lily. "It's fine. I can wait for him here. Also, please get me a cup of coffee with sugar and milk. Thanks."
