What Separates Me and You

Chapter 228 Do I Look Like a Fool to You?

Seth was right. Lewis had numerous opportunities to discover the truth, but he didn’t. He was proud, awkward, and always said the opposite of what he meant.

Seth saw right through Lewis. Lewis would never admit he had a soft spot for a woman and an unpresentable mute at that.

Lewis’ eyes grew colder as he looked at Seth.

Seth shrugged and got up to leave. “I’m clocking off. See you in the afternoon.” As he spoke, he waved at Lewis with his back turned.

Lewis withdrew his gaze and entered the elevator. He reached the topmost floor and halted when he passed by the office. He subconsciously looked inside.

A thought crossed his mind, and he entered the office. He spotted Josephine’s desk at once.

She didn’t turn off the computer two days ago because she was in a rush. The computer screen was glowing, and her bag was on the desk.

Lewis picked up her bag, opened it, and peeked inside. He noticed the palm-sized notebook. He casually took it and flipped it open.

His face changed when he saw the content. Then, he quickly flipped a few more pages.

The office was dead silent, so the page-turning sound was exceedingly loud.

It was cloudy and drizzling outside, causing the office to be dim. It didn’t feel like morning. Instead, it felt like it was already night.

Several employees entered the office. One moment they were chatting and giggling, and the next, they were stupefied.

A well-built man stood in the dimly lit office. He stood motionless and looked eerie when the glow from the computer screen illuminated his face.

“Chairman?” Yelena called.

Lewis came back to his senses and looked toward them. He swiftly closed the notebook and put it into his pocket. Then, he walked to the door. “Remember to shut down the computer when you clock out.”

Yelena was stunned. Lewis was already gone when she regained her senses. She frantically explained, “Chairman, that desk is not mine!”

Too late. Lewis had already entered his office, shutting her voice out. No one knew if he actually heard them.
