Chapter 1
The new girl instantly became the center of attention.
Her white, low–cut lace dress perfectly hugged her curves.
The moment the clock hit 5, guys from our department–and even others–swarmed around her, trying to strike up a conversation.
Only Lucas didn’t join the crowd.
He closed his laptop and walked over to me.
Smiling like always, “Emily, what are you waiting for? Let’s head home.”
In the car, I asked him, “Don’t you think the new girl is pretty and has a great figure?”
Lucas smirked, “Looks are just surface–level. Who cares if she’s pretty?”
“She’s still just a guy–chaser.”
I frowned. His words rubbed me the wrong way.
He didn’t notice.
“Don’t you dare start acting like her, relying on men instead of
I didn’t say anything.
Working hard yourself.”
The next day, back at the office, everyone was still fawning over her.
I was surprised to see she hadn’t stayed at her assigned desk. She’d moved her stuff.
She chose to sit right next to Lucas.
With a bright smile, she reached out her hand to him.
“Looking forward to working with you, newbie.”
I glanced at Lucas.
He didn’t hesitate to shake her hand.
She turned to me, following my gaze to their intertwined hands.
She raised an eyebrow, her smile widening.
Her grip tightened.

After work, I was organizing files for the next day.
As usual, I stood by the office entrance, waiting for Lucas to walk home with me.
Time dragged on, and I grew confused.
He’s always the first to leave, but this time, he was half an hour late.
When he didn’t reply to my texts, I went back to his desk.
He was still there, the new girl holding his hand, playfully swinging it.
I knocked on the desk, and both of them looked up.
“Emily, you off yet? Oh, it’s been a long day.”
“I’m not heading out with you tonight. I’m helping Sophia with some work.”
I paused while tidying his desk.
My eyes met Sophia’s, who was practically draped over him.
She gave me a sweet smile, like she was the victim here.
“I heard you two go way back, such a great team.”
“I’m new here, so I’ll need some help.”
“Don’t be stingy. I’ll return him tomorrow.”
Lucas pinched her cheek, annoyed.
“Why are you asking her? Just take me.”
Sophia giggled and pinched his face back.
“What, you don’t want me to?”
In less than a day, they were already flirting like this?
I didn’t say a word.
I grabbed my things and left.
As I reached the door, I heard Sophia tease, “Stop pinching me, your ‘wife‘ is getting jea
“What wife?”
“We’ve just known each other a long time.”
“Oh? Really? There’s nothing between you two?”

“Nothing at all.”
My heart ached.
My eyes started to feel dry.
I closed the door.
