Chapter 3

Before Lucas appeared, my life with Olivia could be considered happy and ordinary.

She was often dizzy with work at the company. When she came home, I would prepare a hot bath for her and timely offer her a cup of hangover tea.

When did cracks start to appear in this life?

Probably on Lucas's first day at the company.

I received a friend request on SnapChat.

After adding him, he didn't say a word.

But his SnapChat stories were frequently updated with his daily life at the company with Olivia.

"The boss worked overtime today, giving her a foot massage."

"Accidentally brushed against her lips today, so sweet."

"She really seems to like my scent, even the buttons on my shirt were torn off."

"Babe blushed, so cute."

This clearly exceeded the distance that should exist between a boss and a subordinate.

I could feel that he was showing off to me, but I still chose to trust Olivia.

Until that day, when I brought soup to the company and he poured it out in front of me, replacing it with a glass of high-proof liquor.

From the corner, I watched Olivia drink it without hesitation.

At three in the morning, I received a photo from Lucas of the two of them cheek to cheek.

"She's so beautiful tonight."

"Are you still waiting for her to come home?"
