What Separates Me and You

Chapter 345 Being Unwary

Lewis had just sat at the dining table when he received the text.

After instructing the helpers to lay out the table, Nancy smiled as she served Lewis some food. ”

Eat up, Lewis. You’ve lost so much weight recently.” That remark wasn’t part of her pleasantry. Lewis had indeed lost a few pounds, his clothes evidently looking larger on him now.

Lewis glanced at his phone and abruptly rose. “Something came up. I’ll get going.”

Nancy’s hands froze mid-air. Standing up, she hurriedly put down her cutlery and asked, “Is it something urgent? Can’t you leave after the meal?”

“I’ll join you next time.” At that, he grabbed his coat on the chair and strode out of the house.

“Lewis!” Nancy looked frantic, but he never looked back once though she kept calling him.

When he was finally out of her line of sight, Nancy swept all the dishes onto the floor in wrath, sending everything on the table crashing to the floor and shattering into pieces.

Even so, Lewis didn’t return to her.

Indeed, the crack in their relationship had grown immensely, so much so that it was hard for them to keep up a peaceful façade..

Nancy flopped back into her chair and wept uncontrollably into her hands.

Meanwhile, Josephine was in the car, looking out the window. She wanted to remember the roads they passed, but the heavy rain obscured her line of sight.

Looking down at her phone, she realized Lewis hadn’t replied.

She shifted her gaze to Quintin, whose eyes were focused on the road.

She bit her lip, feeling the urge to cry as fear built up within. Tears welled up in her eyes.

It wasn’t long before Quintin stopped the car. After approximately 40 minutes, he drove into a high -end residential area and parked in the parking lot.

Getting out, he smiled as he said, “Come on down. You’re soaked. Come with me to get a change of clothes, or you’ll fall sick.”
